ATSF LA "the patch" my version

[porthos]

This last weekend I found out (through this forum actually) that my trackplan done with anyrail can be exported as a trainplayer file. I spent a couple of hours running it through its paces and I'm pretty happy with how its working. Trainplayer didn't like the peco three way switch so I had to drop that out to make it work. So I couldn't switch the "Nabisco" siding. The only thing I discovered that I might mess around with is the tracks at the far right end could stand to be a bit longer, so I'm thinking of sliding turnouts to the right a bit to get some extra room at that end of the layout.

There are some interesting spots to stash cars around the layout that are readily apparent until you actually begin switching. I started with 7 cars spotted on the layout and brought in 7 more to be spotted. All told it took about an hour to switch things around and pull out 7 empties. I'm thinking that the switching 10 in and 10 out would be about the maximum and that would be overloading the staging tracks on the cassette which can only really handle 6 and 7 cars.

So far so good!
