Ed, the track plan looks fantastic. The abandoned spur is genius. What kind of equipment are you going to run?

Mike;
Well the track plan is still getting some fine tuning, but this will probably be the basic plan. Still toying with the idea of having a larger industry on the front edge of the layout and maybe eliminating the trans-load track, but this plan operates very well.

As for equipment, I alternate between using an L&N MP15dc, L&N C-420 and a yet to be painted L&N NW-2. Typical yard power for my era (late 70's to early 80's). Trains coming on to the spur will also have a caboose and a 4 man crew.         I prefer the "Rebel" gray/yellow scheme.
