  • Well we forgot to finish up our switching last week with a couple of cars left out on the run-around track. We'll finish those up and get ready for the new hauler.

    The Shift Manager at United Polymers has been calling my office daily wondering when the railroad would finally deliver their car.

      That’s funny! Especially, since
      he can see it out his window!
      That reminds me of a story I heard, or maybe read it in a
      magazine. It dates back to when Penn Central was formed.
      There were a lot of foul ups during that time. The Pennsy’s
      and the Central’s computers
      couldn’t talk to each other, so
      whole trains were lost and had
      to be found. Anyway, the story
      goes that a customer calls up his rep at the railroad and complains that his car hadn’t
      been delivered, yet. He complained further, that he has
      seen it pass by his siding four
      times!

    When people ask why you don't just shove a string of cars back to the yard, tell them there's a local ordinance restricting the practice due to safety concerns. It's interesting how long it takes to just switch out a couple of cars, isn't it?

    So glad to hear that Carl’s therapy sessions have been working out, and that he won’t be falling down on the job anymore. Tell him the guys at the taco truck are really pulling for him.

    A friend was getting ready for a operating session and was looking for a said boxcar but could not find it. later as the operating session was underway he found it or a passenger train found it. it derailed in a tunnel and wedged itself. the GP-15-1 needs a paint job bad. lol

    I love your layout! Granted that I am prejudiced because I model O-scale 1990s diesels, emds, etc. What is your layout size? Can you post your layout track plan? Where is your layout, i.e. your garage?

      His layout is a Union Pacific line in Southern California from a yard in LA down towards Huntington Beach.
      It’s proto freelance and he runs some Santa Fe equipment from time to time

    Hey Rick
    Have an idea for you
    If you leave a box car or something sitting on a section of track for a day or more you should have a police car in the area with police figures and some debris on the ground by the car
    It would show that the rail purses hijacked into the car when the train crews were all gone
    That’s very prototype these days unfortunately
    Also why don’t you put some figures walking on sidewalks or homeless hanging out near some industries
    The homeless people are everywhere in Southern California
    LA has it bad these days

    When you uncouple/couple cars, do you press the sound function coupler sound?
