ON THE COVER

Two diesel switch engines putting together an outgoing train at the Southern's new three-million-dollar John Sevier Yard near Knoxville, Tenn. The engine slightly in the background is pulling a cut of cars from one of the tracks in the classification yard to place in the train being built up in the fordwarding yard (where the engine in the foreground is already shoving its cut of cars).
