WRS Update

Warning this a long posting :-)

The WRS has gone a few changes since the last update. The WRS is a point to point layout now with a small branchline.

This a view of the yard, with the WRS yard to right. The three tracks have been lenghted to handle the longer trains of the new layout.







This is a view from the other end of the Yard. On the left in the distance is the WRS Yard and on the right is the new Interchange Yard. More tracks have been added to increase the Yard size to thirty cars.




This is a view of you entering Greenfield, the first area after leaving the yard. This is the home of Blue Circle Flour.


After you leave Greenfield, you pass Framer Brown's Lane on the way to Dogwood.




Now you are entering Dogwood. Some of the tracks have been extended to allow for better operations. This is a busy area with five industries, Marc's Printing, T&T Warehousing, Big Red's Metals, Reload track and a team track.


After you leave Dogwood there is Junction, which connects the small branchline to the mainline.

(sorry no pictures)

Just pass the junction is a new area where a few houses have appeared. Hopefully this will develop into a small town.



As we leave the new town we pass through Reily Cross on our way to Roseton.


This the far end of Roseton. Roseton is another major switching area. Industries include Leo's Feed, Inland Cement, A & D Plastics, R&C Transfer, Reg's Fine Leathers and Dougs Organ Works.





After Roseton is the area called Whiskey Falls. There are two industries in Whiskey Falls, W&S Fish Products and Ice Box Cold Storage.

After you leave Whiskey Falls you enter Bartown. (sorry no pictures) This is also a busy area, with Green Mountain Limestone, Valley Produce and XYZ Co. This is were the WRS lines end now.



This is a view of Junction from the branchline side. Industries in Junction are Hardwood Furniture, Mama's Pasta and Black Cat. Further down the branchline is T&M Lumber.



That is the tour of the new WRS. We will be doing the first operating session on Monday night. It should be interesting as the new layout comes to life.
