Any questions?
Can you get Chat-GPT to do these for you?
Har har. I do a little bit of fiction writing and hang out on a writers' forum, and we are carrying on (and on, and on) about how Chat-GPT is changing our world. Being the closet Luddite I am, my take is "...pshaw... NOT!" 'cause it doesn't understand - and likely never will - satire, paradox, humor and bunches of other subtle language-play. My quip is that the generated text is so dry it takes two glasses of milk to choke it down.It surely wouldn't get my solution of accommodating signaling where the crossovers could be aligned to run the train through the junction just to end-up on the same track they started from!
I'm all of a sudden getting flashbacks from my 7th or 8th grade computer programming class (thinking '93-94)
Yes. Under speed signaling protocols. Not all RRs have adopted it.
Are you using Union Pacifics signalling protocol then?
Father, I have sinned yet again. Please be merciful in assigning my penance.I just ordered a caboose from MBK to go with the HO Centennial and GP30B display.... but I don't think it will fit on the 3' shelf with the rest. HO is big. We'll see.
Father, I have sinned yet again. Please be merciful in assigning my penance.I just ordered a caboose from MBK to go with the HO Centennial and GP30B display. I put up the shelf yesterday above my workstation, found the - again, HO - BLMA two-head signal in LA&SL style, and realized I needed to "complete" the display. Good thing Athearn very recently released the proper UP caboose, so I am now set. I have a 40' appliance boxcar in the yellow/silver "Automated Rail Way" map scheme acquired many years ago, but I don't think it will fit on the 3' shelf with the rest. HO is big. We'll see.
I guess I'll have to be the first one to say this out loud: given the size of your space and the scope of your existing benchwork, it would be the 'work of a moment' to repurpose it to HO.
