Operations
Just Mailed My Order
I just returned from the post office after mailing my order for the Model Trains Video DVD "Ops Live Series" (should have done this sooner).
I had the great fortune recently to attend an operations session on the Bear Creek and South Jackson Railroad. It was my first ops session experience, and Charlie Comstock is a wonderful host. I will not soon forget the evening after operating on his fantastic railroad.
Now I want to learn more about live operations, and the videos should be a great overview.
Ops Session on the LVN
The Friday night group attends a number of operations nights on the LVN. Here are some recent photos.
Ron and Dave are discussing the move to get the tank cars out of Husky oil. They have a couple of drop offs that are located on the oil can located in the classification yard.
Decoder Pro - transfer loco list
I have two computers with decoder pro - I used the laptop to add a new loco at the train board on the programing track. I now want to export the loco roster and import to my desktop so i have two copies. decoder pro has roster, export and roster, import option but for only one loco at a time. I want to copy all the files to avoid the requirement for one at a time. suggestions - thanks mark
Operations Poll
This is a quick poll to see how people operate their layouts.
the question is this; when you operate do you start your session with everything staged or have you developed your plan well enough to allow you to finish a session and pick up exactly where you left off?
the reason I ask this is I am about to start operating (april 24th) and I am thinking of starting this railroad on one specific day and then just keep moving the calendar forward. I guess something similar to what Joe is doing on his own layout.
eye test
I came across this idea in an Hon3 list. I saw a picture and I had to build one for myself.
You need them for your op sessions.
