[quote user="Kurt_Laughlin"] <p>Mr Mouse: You are only going to be able to spot 1 car at Buchanan's (5), if anything. Everything on that spur must fit on the tail of the switch while the points are thrown from R to N. Based on the map, the real one was about 125 ft long (which would be a switcher and two cars) or 17 inches in HO.</p><p>Maybe you could move the switch to the far right of the sliding section, toward the middle of the spur?</p><p>KL</p><p>[/quote]</p><p>Or reverse that switch serving the Grocery to the opposite direction.</p><p>Either that or remove that switch entirely. If you did this then you will need to put a switch and tie the Grocery spur's right end into the center "Main" Just in front of the coal dock.</p><p>Shuffling one car at a time until you get 2-3 or 4 cars switched into the Grocery is going to be a hassle. So. Make it easy on yourself and have that spur straight through.</p>
