Pardon my ignorance on this, but at the Antonito stock pens which were served by dual gauge track
there was an arrangement to bring the NG cars over
to the left as they were shoved in so the doors
would be the same distance from the dock as the SG doors.
Question #1. Is this what you call a draw?
#2. How is the changing positions of the couplers handled when changing sides like that?
Or do they just use enough extra cars that none of the transition couplers are involved?
Jim.
