Locked Thank You!!!


 

After exposing you folks to my endless barrage of questions for the last 6 months, concerning constructing a CTC panel for my club's N scale layout, I believe it is ready for its first test-run at our October 26th N scale Fun Run. I do not have the physical signals installed on the layout, yet, but that is in the process as we speak. We are going to test it out, without signals, to see if the detection and dispatcher being able to control the safe movement of the trains, is concerned. We haven't figured out communications yet, but we're working on it. I've even got a couple of our Junior members interested in what this ol' dude has been working on, so I hope to bring them into the fold of dispatcher operations on our layout.
?
Again, I want to thank you for your patience, answers, and just putting up with my questions for the last 6 months. I couldn't of done it without you!!!!

Doug,

Only thing I see is the intermediate signal between Bealville and
Cliff would not be under dispatch control. It would just be ABS
between the other signals. You can keep the block detectors showing so
you can watch the progress.

Thanks for that information, Ken. The block signal was one of the thing the I was never clear on the concept of how to work it. No problem in making it an ABS signal. JMRI makes it easy!
