Sneaking up
Title:  Sneaking up
Description:  As the dodger puts his train into the yard, the southbound Q train rolls down the main behind him. The Q train will have a surprise, which well see once the dodger clears, and the Q train fixes a software problem on the lead unit. Remember when fixing a diesel issue was just resetting a relay??
