Great stuff!! My experience on shays is after completed drive run dry for some time . Then lube this will remove any binding and mesh gears together.

Interesting problem on loading the small tipple. I recently added live loading to my second smaller tipple and am having the same problem with coal "jumping" out of the car. Of course, mine is manually operated, not a cool conveyor, automated system!! I like your fix and will give it a try. Nice update. I'm going to give the different throttle a try, looks interesting.

originally I planned on a chute that would raise up and down, but I decided to keep it simple. now I think the answer might be to go back to the raising chute. I think that a vertical drop would be a solution also. if I make a chute that is more like the ones used a steam locomotive coaling tipples (enclosed with a turned down end), I think that will help. The Clifftop tipple has cutes that are not sloped as much, so the coal flows slower, which I think helps a lot.

I wonder if the cork is allowing your tipple to flow too fast into the hoppers, hence the spills

[@sherryarmstrong4683]

On the landisburg tipple, could you use a hinged door at the end of the shoot? Just a thought.

[@crownironman]

That’s not a bad idea….i will have to think about that one.
