Valley mining is re-enforcing some of the structural timbers in the underground mines and you have been assigned the job of getting the materials there. There is also an extra engineer along getting his certification for the ADF which means you can do it as Trainer, or Trainee. Following is your work order but items in WO are not necessarily in order. Many can be consolidated to cut down on number of moves.

Restricted Speeds are as follows:

15mph CC Yard to 50mph speedlimit past Station

30mph Crossover at both ends of One Mile Canyon. MP6.6 and MP7.76

 

There will be two short delays. One at end of first double track MP1.8, the second one at One Mile Canyon - MP 6. After you have made it to Cureton, there is no time schedule since any AI would not be visible anyway.

 

Problems:

Be careful of splitting the switches. There are numerous chances to do it and it's usually fatal by the time you realize it.

 

The Alco hangs up very badly on some of the upper level turnouts for some reason. Just keep the power to it and it will eventually go.
