Extra 319 South is slowly climbing out of the valley from Newark up to Hicks on August 12, 1978. Almost a year later, Extra 4542 North was trying to meet Extra 228 South at Hicks. Both trains are longer than the siding. It was finally decided that Extra 4542 North would give Extra 228 South 15 cars so the northbound train would fit in the siding.
