On my manifests (and it has been that way for 10+ years) the loco Setout line is above the lines for the rolling stock setout. See attached pdf. Usually, you set the cars out then put the loco to bed. Minor nit.
Ken,

In order to make this happen, you need to use the hyphenated location trick to create a new location of "FAIRFAX-(Loco tracks)".? Then copy over the "RW Yard Loco Track" from your current location of FAIRFAX to the new location (after which you can delete this track from FAIRFAX itself).? Next, you will need to modify the Route of the RW-Cullen Turn?to start in "FAIRFAX-(Loco Tracks)" before stopping at FAIRFAX, where it will pick up its cars.? Since this is a turn job, also edit the Route to return to the new FAIRFAX-(Loco Tracks) location after it drops its cars in the yard at FAIRFAX.? Finally, deselect all the car types from the new location, except for the engines you plan to use (like your SW1500).

This is the Route set up needed (again different locations names),

Once you have this set up, your manifest should look kinda like this one... (though with different names, of course!? And I modified the Manifest Print options for a tabular view)

If any of these steps are unclear or it doesn't seem to work, let us know and we'll attempt to help further!

Happy to help, hope it helps,
