You should be a member of the Operations SIG, www.opsig.org

 

On our email io list we are discussing the surprisingly large number of software programs for operations out there.

You did better than I did. I bought Ship-it but never could figure out how to get it to work. I'd be interested too if there is something better that could automate switch lists as well as integrate passenger train scheduling. Right now I'm low tech with car cards and way bills.

Years ago I had ship it by Albion.   I did get it to work and lick the idea of the software.    Is there something similar or better out now?   I haven't seen anything but was wondering if I was just not looking in the right place. As I get closer to actually running a railroad again, I was wondering if some thing was out there like Shipit.
