Railpro Meet 2019

<< < (3/3)

William Brillinger:
Here are some of my photos from the Meet that are not duplicates of Kevin's

Ops Day 1:



Jobs are assigned by draw. I was hoping to have the Jiggs Tramp job because I have run it before and I really enjoyed it.
I was lucky enough to get it too!

This photo shows the Job assignments. There are also operators assigned to the pool.
Pool is a good job to get familiar with the layout as you get to run the road trains that cross the entire layout.



Here's my power for the Jiggs Tramp...



Here we see Kevin running a pool train...



At both ends of the Jiggs siding there are locked switches that cannot be thrown without communicating with dispatch.
I was on the phone A LOT.



Here's the Jiggs Tramp pulling a cut of Beet Cars from Brimley Sugar...



Day 2.

I was hoping for the Flanagan job this day, and I pulled the highest number in the box for job selections. Things weren't looking good for me until Geoff Carter Slips me his number 1 and says he just want's pool. Thanks Geoff!

Flanagan get's a pair of RS-1's. I love RS-1's!



In this photo I have caught up from my earlier mistakes and I have my cars ready for the next train.
Here Daland and I are discussing our moves to hand off the cars we have for each other.



The day is almost over and I'm just about done at Flanagan.



Things are heating up in the yard as they reconcile the paperwork.
Sounds like there are a few cars to find still.

Great photos! Lee's use of black fascia and valance makes for a beautiful museum-like presentation.

Alan:
Yes, great photos. Thanks for posting. Lee's layout looks like fun and is very well presented. Am sure all of you had a great time.

As a side note, Lee you look like you could be my boss's brother. Amazing how similar you and he look.

nodcc4me:
Bill, thanks to you as well for bringing us along with pictures. I am not aware of any other extensive layouts like Lee’s that run on RailPro. Must have been a lot of fun with everyone running RP.

This looks like a really fun time!  If it wasn't for having already spent my available model railroad travel funds/time in Salt Lake City for the National Train Show in July I may have been able to attend.  Perhaps I could attend in 2020 assuming Lee hosts it again.  I can get pretty cheap flights from Sacramento to SLC.

Several years ago, 2008 I believe, Lee hosted my wife and I for a layout tour when we passed thru SLC on a family vacation.  It's great to see that his already impressive layout then was made even better now with the implementation of Railpro.
