The idea of the in place TT is to put off on to temporary tracks or siding, one car at a time for loading/unloading, yet allow Trains to pass over. I desire to access my shop for an as yet undetermined length of time while finishing the Motor, I also need to get the minecar into the machineshop with a load of firewood every few days over the winter.
A portable TT is the solution here, a fixed in-ground would mean I need to build three and my pocket's not that deep. I also doubt that my Motor at 1.5 ton would work over the turning frog too well.
