Q.
Is it prototypical to push seven to 10 cars from industry sid-
ings back to a yard, over about seven prototypical miles?

A.
Here’s the scenario: Three industries to switch, with one facing
turnout and two trailing turnouts. A siding and a runaround are
available. Time on the main line is limited. There are seven cars at
these industries that need to be picked up and seven cars arriving

the train. An option is to run the locos down the main about 1½
scale miles and switch back to the siding to get on the front.
