10 pounds of RR in a 5 pond sack?
I think it might have been the fumes when I was installing the new section for good..... I thought how cool would it be to make a video (with a little creative editing) showing an arriving train from the rest of the world onto AD-1 and pick up the out bound train on AD-2 to head back to the rest of the world to show the concept.
Then I thought I what if could actually do that before I install the track for good. AND THEN I thought how good would it be to do that now and again for an extended operations like when there was a guest operator! I walked away for a break but the thought never left me.
It's got me wondering "what if" I installed a turnout just before the tunnel that could be blocked off as a dead spur most of the time but for that occasional time could be placed into service temporarily now and again for real off line staging?
Am I trying to put 10 pounds of RR into a 5 pound sack or really making the most of what I got?
