Remarks & Notes 
RF&P F's wait for another train to lead, and a C&O geep is seen far right, in this scene from the ready tracks at Pot Yard, once one of the busiest on the east coast. From the south, it was not uncommon to see power from Southern, C&O (via trackage rights on the SOU), RF&P (which was handed off all traffic from SAL & ACL, receiving it at Richmond), at Pot Yard. From the north, B&O handled just as much traffic into Pot Yard as PRR, which, got their own wires through the southbound receiving hump and reverse to the power rack to run their electric motors. Also wired was a running track and two relay tracks to the north, the north ends of the northbound departure tracks, and the running tracks to the main at RO.
