QUOTE: Originally posted by nsrrfan Disciplined operations is new to me. I'm reading Koester's book, information from NMRA and a copy of Doug Smith's Car card and waybills and I have some questions.
QUOTE: [ My layout allows continuous running, has hidden staging, (4 tracks that can accommodate 14 modern freight cars and two locomotives) and 10 “customers” that can receive about 25 cars. When creating waybills is there a suggest percentage of way bill to allow for local switching and movement between divisions?
QUOTE: Concerning switching, in Smith's article, it is mentioned that a car card goes from "Set Out", to "Hold" and then "Pick Up". What is the purpose of "Hold"? If a car is switched, isn't already in "Hold"?
QUOTE: Does one use a Switch list and way bills to move trains?
