Open House


Today was the Fall Open House at Silicon Valley Lines. I helped set up this morning, and prepped the paper mill yard for a small switching exercise with car card & way bills.


The Northern Pacific "Main Streeter" is passing Hallelujah Paper at track speed on the SVL main line, while Dave and Jon run the paper mill switcher.


We prepped Bayshore Yard with a wide selection of different trains that visitors could run on a loop on the lower level.


Towards the end of the day I ran the UP "doodlebug" on the upper level from Windsor to Nowheres, down to Jacksonville and back. The single car unit got quite some interest because it stands out due to its distinctive color and ... aehm ... length.
