JLCX 3502
Title:  JLCX 3502
Description:  Trillium Railways Welland engine yard. A mechanic has just disappeared behind #3502 with tools in hand. Not sure if he's working on the new (rebuilt) red switcher, or the old black ALCO. I have observed all four of Trillium's locomotives in action recently, so that's kind of an indicator that they're busier - which means more trains for me!
