The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Yards have many tracks in parallel for storing rolling stock or unused locomotives off the main line, so they do not obstruct traffic flow.
- Cars or wagons are moved around by specially designed yard switcher locomotives or shunter locomotives, a type of locomotive.
- Cars or wagons in a yard may be sorted by numerous categories, including railway company, loaded or unloaded status, destination, car type, or need for repairs.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Rail yard article was read about 24,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 57 and blocks with 43: each hit it takes is cut by 17 %.
