I run mixed trains and unit trains, but my unit trains are so short that they really may not qualify as such. 9 black oil tankers I repainted for a single Co. and 10 two bay coal hoppers. Until I started organizing my operation system and sequences I ran a string of mixed reefers as a unit train but now they are dispersed in the switching/mixed freight consists. My idea is to weave the unit trains, passenger trains, mixed freight in with switching operations.
