Time: 9:00 am

Season: Summer

Weather: Clear

Duration: 1h 26m

Train: F45

Class: 1

-----------------

This is our regular run, three times a week, taking up from where we last were, just needing to back out onto the main to proceed back to VM with the empties. We are not cleared to cross the unmarked mainline junction until 9:08. Keep a 5mph max through until clear of the unloading tunnel.

 

Cut Jake and the SW1500 before the junction near Jacks Meadow McDonalds and leave him there.

There is a reverse point there to nudge the Saratoga Shuttle to come on. He's a new engineer and is a little reluctant to go when he should. You may have to back up a bit to let him know it's safe to go.

Keep 15mph limit until you are completely clear of Jack's Meadows crossover

 

30mph diverging crossover past Perkins .. also you may have to wait for the Bailey Stock supply train to come on through.

 

MM47.4 Helper if you're not feeling lucky today :-)

 

45mph imposed from Horseshoe Bend to Gold Run

 

Pull up and wait close to the siding at Gold Run to end this section.

 

General Speedlimits:

5mph - unloading areas

15mph - yards and Jacks Meadow siding

30mph - 10degree or tighter diverging crossovers

Others as marked except

60mph - max limit
