Yard Version II

After having a little time over the Holidays to think about how the new Yard was going to operate. An issue came to light. The loco(s) were trapped when they entered into the arrival tracks. To over come this issue, a pair of switches were installed been the third and fourth tracks in the Yard. The picture below shows the installed switches.


The picture below is of the Yard just before an operating session starts.
Track One (next to the wall) is the departure track for the Mill Run (15 cars).
Track Two is the departure track for Roseton Local (10 cars)
Track Three is the departure track for Bartown Local (6 cars).
Track Four is the arrival track for the Mill Run.
Track Five is the arrival track for Roseton Local.
Track Six (which was just added) is the arrival track for Bartown Local.

Now just a few more wires need to be install to provide power to all tracks and then the Yard will be fully operational.
