Shelf Layout Operating Session - Running the Third Trick

There are lots of different reasons that people enjoy model railroading. For me one of the things I enjoy most is model train operations--specifically switching operations. This video covers the third trick on Wednesday, July 11, 1984. This is my fourth formal operating session on the Monument City Terminal Division, and the first to cover the third trick schedule. So there are still some scheduling issues to work out, some minor layout gremlins to discover, and we all make a whole bunch of mistakes, myself included.

Model trains in action! Watch to see how it turns out!
