Finally got downstairs to the layout and ran some trains.
Richmond Fredricksburg & Potomac GP35 Phase II (Walthers Proto) locos leading a freight through Leiperville Union Station. The train is on track 3 by mistake. Before vacation I was building the run by and I was running it on Track 1 (outside track) and before I went on vacation I wanted to move the train to track 2 (inside track). I forgot the switch from track 2 to track 3 was open and the train went onto track 3. Since track 3 is not fully tacked down and has not been used for any long trains I was pleasently surprised that the locos and 18 cars were able to traverse the track without any power issues or derailments.
