Sunday I was dispatcher again. I only wrote down the orders for the mainline trips, and I don't seem to have my notebook with me, so I won't bore you with it all. The streetcar, in my opinion, tracks the wire better since I wyed it last week (i.e. the other pole is in better condition). The controller is a bit more finicky at that end, though, and the seat is more of PITA (literally). The usual switching going on, but not too much of a disruption. At one point they shoved a cut of cars out to the west end of the railroad and left them there. Also pulled the Centennial out of the barn. I learned where the Zephyr is hiding while its usual spot in Barn 9 is being renovated; it's in Barn 14.
Okay, I found the notebook. I did write down a few things other than mainline trips, but they're nothing unusual. The switching moves I didn't write.
There were a total of seven mainline revenue runs, six of which got the same order, with only train ID and time differing. Here's what I scribbled for the first:
1130 431 nm cone Grove both nm Sch 1
Anyone want to hazard a guess what that means? You may do research by going back a week in the thread.
The only one that was different was: 330 431 nm cone Grove both nm 151, later adding "-- Sch -- 1". This was when the switcher was out at the west end and I didn't know how long he'd be.
Well, okay, there's another difference. The orders issued to 1605 don't say "Sch", they say "short WS".
And now I'm going to bed.

I'm really trying to cut back on ibuprofen, but my right big toe really hurts today (as does my right middle finger, for no apparent reason) and acetaminophen ain't cuttin' it today.

Time for bed. Goodnight everyone. :-)

I thought you were making Chili?
I am now winning, despite not having any Chili!!
I did; see Post 157542, and dig in!!! :-) :-D (Virtual Chilli was made for everyone here to partake. Careful, I put in 1/2 tsp Lal Mirch - Extra Hot in addition to 1/2 tsp Cayenne pepper flakes and seeds, and a good squirt of Sriracha hot sauce!!!!!) :-O

I wonder which one is the chief surgeon today ?

Why do doctors have to practice?
