What I was doing this morning was taking a drink of coffee between moves. The few seconds it takes to set down the throttle - pick up the coffee cup - take a drink - set the cup down - and pick up the throttle works just great. For a bit longer time period, go fill up the coffee cup. Of course you can always take your 20 minute lunch during a session too!
------------------------------
Have we met or are we related?
As I've mention in the past the majority of my layouts has been ISLs and finding ways to extend operation time I have taken coffee and lunch breaks like we did on the PRR.
IMHO as the cost of the hobby continues to raise I feel the ISL will be the layout of choice for those with limited hobby funds and I fully believe Lance is sitting the new ISL design standards and helping modelers understand the joys of a ISL and not to mention a ISL is a scatchbuilder's and super detailer's delight.
