Units Active And Stored
Title:  Units Active And Stored
Description:  A glimpse from Transfer Road (via zoom shot) reveals units stored in the north side of the Commercial's yard. The paint on the second of these units here indicates a new arrival, the 45, which is an operable unit. Not sure what the 200's status is, but the 35, alas, is stored facing an uncertain future last I heard.
