Here is a rough draft of SCI.
The darker lines is service roads while the thinner lines is the track.
The solid black square is a planned truck parking lot for a small mom & pop type truck stop across the service road.
The smaller gray square is a trailer drop lot for drop and hook service-trailers will be delivered to their final destination by a spotting service.
The design is loosely based on several prototype areas gleamed from Bing maps.
I included a small holding track for spotting outbound cars out of the way.
-------------------------------------
Operations.
As of now not all industries will be switch every operation session.I will rotate the work load.
-----------------------------------
Thoughts.
I am planing a 1978-79 short line that utilizes 2 RS1s for power.
However..
I have had this idea floating around for several years.
I thought about a industry complex that has their own locomotive such as a GE 44 Tonner or A GE 70Tonner-Bachmann makes the 44 Tonner and will be releasing a 70 Tonner in N Scale.
-----------------------------------
Any thoughts or concerns I may have overlooked?
