Hey John,

?

Yes, I understood that to be the case, so if you look at image 3, this is the filter on the track at "Interchange" (remember, I used only one track to have the local do it's work before and after ADM).? The filter reflects the loads and the one MTY that are allowed INTO the interchange track.? Because, for this example, I tasked the Grain Hopps to do double duty (i.e. it can load with Corn in the Interchange and with DDG at ADM), they need to be allowed in in either load state (loaded with DDG or as an MTY).? Also, look at the image (image 4) of the schedule for the Interchange called "Load Exchanger".? You will note that the "Grain Hopp" lines receive both DDG and convert to MTY, as well as receive an MTY and convert it to Corn.? The line that applies depends on which way the car shows up when it is delivered here.

?

Part of the reason this may not seem right, is that I did not create a separate type of hopper for the DDG and the Corn.? This was due to the small forum discussion over whether the same car could indeed deliver corn and then reload with DDG occasionally.? Again, for my example, I supposed they could be used for both and did not create a third car type for this exercise.? If you want to have "4bay Cov Hopp" cars be the DDG vehicle, then create a new car type and substitute it into the appropriate places in my example.? Bear in mind that doing so will exclude the occasional respot at ADM from Pits 2 & 3, over to the DDG track.

?

As another perspective, take a look at the attached train manifests for the two trains I used.

?

This exercise was about trying to answer your original question of whether JMRI could work one industry.? Short is yes, and I built this example to show you how.? We can tweak the operation however you desire, just keep the details coming...
