La Mirada local symbols?

[chris_wlkr]

Hello,

What are the RCAL numbers for the La Mirada locals? I can never seem to remember them and do not have them written down anywhere.

I know the 3rd is R CAL 0061

Would like to add them into the descriptions and info for each section here.

Thanks in advance.

When we see these jobs lets try to get the info from the crews and posting it here on WCRF Public forums like leaving out the specific information of who we got the info from and where we were and so on so we don't put anybody's job at risk.
Maybe next week I will try and get the LM local symbols.

Info from crews? All you need to do is look at the Train Tracker when the trains are out on the main.

A little eccentric there Jonathan. Do not bother the crews, they have work to do.

Thank you for the 5th info .. two down, three to go.

Chris - now where did I put my Train Tracker at?

What are the average yard arrival times for the above jobs?
If I am not mistaken the 4th LM just switches at the La Mirada yard and the industries at the yard?
Does the 1st LM just works the industries in Santa Ana and Tustin?
Before the 2nd LM works the industries in Santa Fe Springs where does it work?
Does the 3rd LM switch the industries on the Metrolink Olive Sub and the San Diego Sub and on BNSF San Bernardino Sub near Atwood and at State College before it switches Kimberly Clark?
Where does the 5th LM work other then Cargill?
Let me guess does the 4th Rivera that I have never heard of just shuttles cars between La Mirada and Pico Rivera?

I haven't had the chance to work every one of these jobs recently, but...

1st La Mirada - switches out the inbound BARLAC, switches industries around the yard, doesn't usually enter the mainline.

2nd La Mirada - picks up cars in the yard, switches the xerox lead on Mo-We-Fr, Santa Fe Springs on Tu, Th. I may have that flipped...

3rd La Mirada - switches Kimberly Chark Spur, and other Anaheim / OC industries.

4th La Mirada - Typically stays in La Mirada Yard, relief switches additional industries outside La Mirada when needed.

5th La Mirada - Switches S. OC industries, Olive Sub industries.

4th Rivera - Switches N. & S. Vail, transfers cars between Pico Yard, Commerce, and La Mirada.

Every so often work is moved around between the La Mirada Jobs depending on how 'hot' a move is.

Mr. MRL

By saying S.OC do you mean Southern Orange County?
What is xerox lead?
So my best guess is that the 5th LM works the industry off of State College and the BNSF main. I am little confused.
