Operating, again


By stanford - Posted on 18 August 2010

After more than 2 years without the CSFT having regular multiple operator op sessions, it looks like it is once again going to start happening!

An invitation was sent out via the newsletter of the model railway group I am a member of, and there has been some positive feedback. The plan is to have one multiple operator op session a month, on a Tuesday evening.

I have been thinking over how best to manage the train sequence - I can use a web based application to manage the trains via my wife's laptop, or use paper sheets generated by the same application. In some ways the paper option is better. A laptop might get in the way with possible damage to it being the result.

Below is an example of part of the train sheet that will be used.

And here is a view of an example of a virtual interchange move that could happen on the day.

With the combination of virtual interchange traffic and a train sequence with a good quantity of switching and local moves and transfer runs it should be a lot of fun!
