What paperwork are you using for youre layout?
#2
Ok Josh here is my pitch on what id like to do, as im busy between work and family or other interruptions I want to be able to just drop what im doing on the layout and come back at any time and have no hassle where I left off. So with that said I came up with this idea as you can see in picture that's just as simple as loco bills but with a slight learning curve. First I need a basic dice or two depends on your train lengths, fill out all blank spaces as you see below and as for the empty spaces with no writing this is where ill put 1-2 industry A 2-3 industry B 4-6 industry C or if you choose may use one lets say 2-3 as car will go to interchange track. If you choose to widen you choices by going 1 industry A 2 industry B 3 interchange and so on. For me most common length will be 8 cars or so, but heres where is starts to operate. Take the dice and roll them lets say I roll a 6 ( I have over 30 rolling stock ) shuffle the cards face down and draw that number, you your self or friend(s) play yard master and pick up them cars for the road crew to pick up. Once cars are out to the track roll dice to see where car will end up: will it be industry A interchange ?????? dice will decide. Next ill use paper clips to highlight where car is to go now that I know where there off to ill run them cars to them locations. Now lets say theres a car or two there ill roll dice as indicated on card what to do and that's my plan. Any questions or comments please feel free.
