<p>[quote user="pcarrell"]</p><p><b><font color="#ff0000">Ulrich</font></b>,</p> <p>That plan looks like a good one. The carfloat can act as off layout staging, and the plan is tight enough to cause you to think out your moves, but not so tight that it's unworkable. Is that an actual prototype track arrangement, or something you came up with?</p><p>[/quote] </p><p><b>Philip</b> - I would not want to call it prototype track, it follows the general orientation of ARR´s Whittier facilities. The track plan is a summary of some ideas which had different "fathers", starting from Bob Smaus "Port of Los Angeles" of 1990´s and going to Stein (steinjr) of 2009, with whom I had an intense dialogue on planning a shelf layout earlier this year. The car float is supposed to act as a staging yard, and I plan to make it removable to simulate the arrival/departure of floats, allowing to" work" different trains.</p><p>I hope it will not only remain a dream... <br></p>
