Report No.10

First work train to use Omega Siding.

Notice, Marble spur not in then.

I have arrived at Omega Siding,(work train tested it Nov. 15),and I am working on the Marble

spur. I plan on stopping here while I go back to work on locations that need ballasting and

site work. Maybe a building or two also.

Saturday Nov. 17, I got to take the white flags off No.8 and ran the first scheduled Mixed

train from Jamestown to Omega Siding with one car, (I did take the two hoppers out to the

Gravel Spur also), and return to Jamestown with three cars. It took a long time to switch

at Omega due to the main on the east end was too short to back the whole train out of the

way and the siding can only hold four cars, plus I had both coaches 5 & 6.

It was a fun first trip.

Oh yea, I did add the most simple sound to No.8, a Bachmann Big Hauler chuff board. Sounds

better than nothing.

Spent last few nights finishing Shay No.10. Also added the same sound board. She took out

today's Mixed to Omega Siding.

See video of first train at bottom. Yea, I now know to film in landscape only...
