I found this the most interesting yet. It answered a bunch of questions I have no one to ask.

[@SeaboardCentral]

Thanks!

[@calvincurtiss2490]

Thank you Prof. Garland. Like I said along with your knowledge and skills, a school should be formed on your courses. Great stuff.

[@SeaboardCentral]

Thanks Calvin! Glad you enjoy them.

[@RFMCabooseNP1713]

Very interesting.

[@SeaboardCentral]

Thanks Robert!

[@captainvanover]

Thank you for sharing! Quick question, how much space do you keep between your tracks in your passing / service yard?

[@SeaboardCentral]

Thanks for watching! The spacing between the tracks is about 2-1/4 inches. Typical prototype track spacing in yards is around 14 feet which would actually be around 2 inches in HO scale so I am actually wider but I have to take into account the tighter curves and space to handle the cars if necessary.

[@bjjt-nu9dx]

Celebrity sighting!! Saw you on 1800 at the Frosty Caboose Tues at about 1 p.m. What is the paint scheme on that unit? 😲

[@SeaboardCentral]

Great to meet you Bruce!

[@mikedurhan9941]

Tim: What brand of locomotive is that GP38-2, #2005? Thank you. It looks like a great runner.

[@SeaboardCentral]

It is an Athearn Genesis

[@mikedurhan9941]

Much obliged, as we old timers say down South.@@SeaboardCentral

[@ajkleipass]

On the alphabet cheat sheet the letter Y appears to be unintelligible. Was that a glitch with the source material, or are Y cars from another galaxy? 🤔

[@SeaboardCentral]

Nothing for Y

[@ajkleipass]

@@SeaboardCentral thanks for the reply.
I was browsing that UMLER PDF, the date data fields are amusing. They allow for construction/ rebuild dates until the year 9999, but the oldest equipment allowed is from 1900. Farsighted or short-sighted? LOL
