Take3. The following is a three way meet during the first few minutes of the Hot Shot Intermodal activity on the Full Bucket Line. The partially obscured west bound mining train arrived at the last cross-over for the west main about three minutes before the east bound coal train arrived. Only thing left for the Hot Shot to do was pass the mining train and take the west main in front of it, and passing the coal train at the same time . The mining train is lead by a FBL GP9, followed by a Santa Fe & Southern and a FBL RS1. The east bound coal is lead by Union Pacific SD90MAC's 8508 & 8500R. The Hot Shot is lead by the 3DT SD70 Demo, followed by a FBL Dash9 and another UP SD90MAC. This meet never happened on a prior install. Just since coming back from the shop with a new HD and Ram upgrade.
I know, I got to crop a little better, and learn how to place multiples in the same post....but its a start.Thanks to Bjorn from the FBL, and the others for the encouragement. The meet ends up with the Hot Shot moving off very rapidly, otherwise the mining train will kick it in the caboose! Before the hardware change, the minig train kept going past the Hot Shot and taking up the block, meaning a fair wait for it to clear. Which then meant an extra wait for the coal train as well. Don't know why its doing like it does, but I like it..
