At the Western end of the yard are the service facilities. Most of the steam power is gone from the railroad but a few old consolidations remain.  This one is taking on water and sand at the Diesel fueling station.  The diesels are serviced here, but bigger jobs are done in the engine house.  There are numerous smaller services facilities around the yard that are just as important. 
This scene is in Hudson Point.
