CTU spur Alaska

[iandrewmartin]

One thing big RR's do is put Power on the front & trailing to switch either way!

Not just the big guys either. Progressive Rail run two switchers at either end of the park for switching services. This allows the train crew to swap engines rather than run around their train, especially where there is no run around.

For an idea of what I mean go to the the following link: <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.progressiverail.com/photos.html">http://www.progressiverail.com/photos.html</a><!-- m -->
Choose photo 02. You'l notice switches in both directions, a crossover and inglenooks. It's all there to serve the customer.
