A bit of switching
Cleaning up the freight house
A short bit of video of removing a string of cars from around the freight house and spotting them in the yard.

That double diamond crossing is beyond cool. Glad to see your still alive. 😉
No more construction ? Now just ‘playing around
‘? The vehicles look great but crossing those tracks might be problematic !
The building …. white bristol board or mat board ? What is the roof , grey mat board ? It looks very effective !

I’d like to know how the engineer knew when to stop- they must have had a relay system of multiple brakemen to get around that line of sight obstacle of a freight house.
Love the layout, love the site, Tim –

I have no idea for sure how they did it, but I suspect it was like you said, multiple brakemen relaying hand signals back to the engineer. It must have been dangerous, difficult work!
