My method of operation that I have developed is faily easy to impliment and gives the impression of a tightly sceduled railroad without all the pressure, The first thing I did was fill out some 4 Cycle car cards like those made by Old Line Graphics and now also avialable from Micro-Mark. These provide alot of flexibility and do much to enhance the hands on part of operating a model raiload. The second part is I came up with a sequence time table. This is just simply a list of what trains are run in what order. It is used as a guied for dispatching trains on the model railroad and does not have to be adheard to all that strictly. Plus it eliminates the pressure of running against a fast clock. (I know some of you people enjoy running against a fast clock, but to much hassle and pressure for me) The sequence time table is alsl flexible and easy to set up. As if you don't like the order, you can quite easily change it. I shared the seqence time table for my proposed model railroad a while back. if you are interested. Check it out. http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?page=-1&TOPIC_ID=20798&REPLY_ID=194459#194459 Feel free to use mine as a template if you like it. James
