Photo No. 3 now shows the track plan for the hidden storage yard. This yard uses 5 Ross O31 LH switches. The turnouts are all TMCC controlled via Z-Stuff DZ-2500 switch motors. The yard sits on 1/4" Vinylbed. Being hidden, it will not be ballasted or sceniced. It has a reversing loop and 4 interior stub tracks. I think it will hold about 50 cars. Actually upon further review, I think 40 cars is probably closer to the maximum capaciy. If I'm really stacked up, I can put another 10-14 cars on the yard lead.

The purpose of the yard is to store trainloads of materials brought into Weirton Steel and to provide trainloads of steel products for shipping out of the mill.

As usual, comments and questions are welcome!
