Updating the paperwork from yesterday's session.

Finishing up the Caboose Project:

I need to finalize the caboose assignments tonight.

I will check each car and go through inspections.

I will write their assignments on a card to update
the maintenance logs. 

Here is one of those
maintenance log sheets.

I will also make changes to
the Cars in Consists sheet
and reprint with final changes.

I have all the cabooses in the Engine Facilities
next to their assigned Motive Power.

Same thing at the CNW Engine Facility.

One last look at the workbench before calling it a night.

Getting markers ready for Test Cars in Consists.

Adding more cars for Pick Ups at RIP tracks.

This report shows the black tank car which has been
moved from the workbench (red highlighted) 
to the RIP track and ready for the next WB pickup
(now highlighted over with yellow which means
paperwork attached to Train Cars in Consist report)

And here's the black tank car ready for Pick Up
at the RIP track 2.
