Hi,
I've been thinking for a while that the passengers would have a better experience if they met a freight train while on the regular schedules tourist passenger trains.
I've not been able to get a single freight to meet both passenger trains (except at Osier).
I wanted a meet or an overtake of the freight. No it is not cost effective, but is it be possible?
Ive thought about holding a few freight cars and a caboose at Cumbres and having the Cumbres helper become a freight and meet the returning passenger from Osier at Los Pinos.
Extending it to meet the the Antonito train seems to be possible, but not meeting both passenger trains.
One thing I thought about was running the freight ahead of the Chama-Osier passenger to Toltec siding, meeting the eastbound Antonito-Osier and then backing to Osier to turn. But getting it past the two passenger trains at Osier so the Osier Chama passenger train could overtake it would be hard.
Any suggestions for this thought game?
