How to find item that is loaded?

I am trying to refer to an item that is loaded on to an operator. I used load activity to load "cart" flow item. How do I refer to this cart? I tried using subnodes[1] but that does not seem to work. Below is the picture of model tree

But this code is correct. You need only combine it with a reference of this operator. The operator is the container or start node of subnodes.

Your token may have a pointer to the operator already in which case it's:

token.operator.first

which is equivalent to :

token.operator.subnodes[1]

But if you've told the operator to load the cart then you should have already stored a reference to it on a token label too.

Also, in general I would expect the operator unload the cart somewhere (into a fixed resource or the model root) before loading with items, then you can see the operator collect from a rack and place in the cart as two movements.where the cart is stationary. It's up to you though.
