Looking good Noel.
Here kind of show the upgrade of tracks. Not the best photo. Just have a few more changes and then redo the to new track drawing.
Lost count on the footage of the tracks on the hole layout, but I think it over 50 feet now thinking when we loose trains sometimes and have to use three intercom to find them. lol.
New yard trackage
Trackage drawing
Spent all day tracing out and changing Cir. in Bakers Acres area. This is to show our group guys the new set up for now until we build a new panel for the routing and locations of travel. Guess this Is what we get when we are Track power guys and not all Batt. lol.
This shows a hand drawing of the cirs. and Sw locations.
Now Bakers Acres area now can use our Aristo TM’s Throttle A/B with main line or Throttle C for that area only.
Throttle at Set up area can use Throttle A/B or Throttle D.
Note: The Turntable Nbr’s. are Blocks that are on the Turntable panel that is already built and installed.
Jeesh, what a setup!

Forgot to add the ruff cut pads… Straight from other side of the Big Pond with qty. control stuff to make sure all lines are on a page… lol.
We gave it a test to see how the new yard worked out by setting up around 30 some cars at the set up area and grabbing a NW-3 to shove them down to Bakers Acres sw. yard.
Then do a little switch in the yard and make up a train with a couple of GP-9’s … worked out great …
Here is where we set up 5 caboose at the set up area with the 9’s to take to the yard to see how they fit on the caboose tracks down there.
Now that is one heck of a RR. Later RJD
It really is an amazing railroad. I was Noel’s guest for an afternoon last year and my grown son and I were in awe. I hope to go back again soon to see all the improvement since the last time I visited.
Are those “Soutmern Pacific” reefers? I prize mine.

ours is a tecnical hobby - but when it comes to use other tecnical items, like cameras and cellphones, we tend to let them be managed by our wives… curious, isn’t it?
