Work Order: NEDF-109-11-F02a

Time: 9:15a

Season: Summer

Weather: Clear

Duration:  3 hrs (Should be much less if you are efficient)

Train: Furx SD40-2 #3048

Class: 2

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

Part two - Continuing the return trip from Burkes to North Fork. Finally getting some good weather, the traffic is cleaned out, but there's some heavy work to do. You will get popups when you successfully pickup or setout a car, but you are going to have to figure it out for yourselves. Also only the mainline path is dispatch controlled. It only gets you there. You have to get in and out. You don't have any traffic to worry about, since nothing should be coming through until around 12:15 or so. You'll have it completely to yourself for a couple of hours.

 

35mph speed restriction since we have empties interspersed with loads.

15mph speed restriction at both Burkes and Forestry Siding

then moving ahead to switch the Forestry switchbacks. Take all logging cars down to chips out, since Forestry changed the orders on us. Pickup Chips and Lumber cars, then replace the Box on Supplies In.

 

This will end when you stop at the first signal past the Forestry Siding

 

Good Luck. This is a long one.

NOTES:

Everything on this is pretty cut and dried, it's just tedious. Your final time should be around 2 1/2 hours, since I did everything the hard way on this evaluation to make sure it could be done in the allotted time.

 

Burkes, some front coupler work. Also the re-sorting is time consuming, but you do have three tracks with quite a bit of capacity. Just more or less stay within the switch boundaries with the engines and you should have no problems.

 

Forestry Siding some front coupler work (actually quite a bit) and is a puzzler ;-) Have Fun, but just make sure the Box car on Supplies gets back to its original place or someone will hear about it.
