An HO scale switching module, shows up at Trainfest every year, with a scale model of "Badger", being loaded and unloaded.
I also remember an HO scale, radio controlled, car ferry, at Trainfest. It did take forever to empty the above ground ( 15' - 20' diameter ) pool, and clean up any spills, so it doesn't show up any more, but it did load, and unload at both sides of the "pool".
Some form of rail car ferry operation,( preferably carried, or on a wheeled cart ) is an excellent choice for small industrial switching. It's also an excellent method of staging traffic in and out of a switching layout.
Well timed, "reminder" post, railohio. Thank you. Thumbsup Thumbsup
We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
