Скачать или смотреть Coal Operations on the HO Scale Colorado & Southern Ry - Ep 12

The C&S Ry Northern Division runs out-and-back trains to service local coal mines every day. These "coal turns" run as Extras, dodging all the scheduled trains as they switch their cars out on the Main.

Today we are called for the Valmont Turn, a daily mine run that delivers coal to the Valmont Power Plant. Enjoy the action as we load our hoppers at Coalton, weigh them out in Louisville, and swap them for empties at Valmont. Eight hoppers loaded, six trains met, with zero flagmen lost...

This eventful five hour run can take much longer. It's easy to see why it's a favorite with C&S crews!

In 1958, the Colorado & Southern Railway used time tables, train orders, and operating rules to move trains up and down the Colorado Front Range. The operating crew of the C&S Ry Northern Division model railroad replicates this system on the layout. This is a sample of their efforts.
