Thank you! And yes this is definitely an operating layout

Beautiful setup. Would love to see a diagram of the finalized track plan. This layout belongs in a MRP issue.

Thank you! That’s very kind to say! Unfortunately we don’t have a final track diagram, it’s has been changed so many times it’s far from the original 😓

Yes GP38-2 are a great locomotive, I have a few , not greedy room for more

I will be looking forward to you showing us how you completed the wire

Fine work man! I really would like to get it touch with you. As a BNSF employee I really don’t understand your signal system heh. Oh well different railroad different rules lol! Great work as always!

It's looking pretty clean. Now we need to get you a go-zillion cars for the auto trans-load area. Cheers! Earl

The 9568 was and might still be based out of Stevens Point. I have quite a few pictures of it.

Oh right on!! I just had another athearn 9563 and tried to find a cool unit to turn it into, then I found the 9568 with the work done to it and I thought it would be cool to model, Cheers

Who made your three aspect signals? Can you do a video on them and how you got them to work?

@SilverCreekSub

They are from a company called “wehonest” in china, they will make you custom builds if you ask them. And yes we will down the road, once our CTC is fully installed and we have all the bugs worked out we are going to do a deep dive video series into how everything works.

You mentioned messing around with the resistors on the wheelsets. Have you decided on a specific resistance value on you rolling stock?

@SilverCreekSub

Not yet, we have built some different prototypes, but we want it so that if just one end of one car is still past a signal, it clearly shows up on the RTC panel. Just a couple more tests and we should have our final prototype. We will be doing a full build series on the CTC and all its components, once we get everything working with no bugs. Cheers

Great update. Question… you said you don’t like the helix, what is wrong with it and how do you look to enhance it?

@SilverCreekSub

Thanks Chris! That helix was the first one we built and we missed some things, hopefully it will just get replaced, I have a plan in the works 😁

Did you end up ditching the light-it’s?

Yeah we did, we are going to keep them for auxiliary lighting, but we went to the signalman, way more expensive but it was well worth it
