Move the RIP track to the front. Remember, shop personnel aren't going to want moving equipment all over them.
Think about it all like a production line: "used engines come in one end, ready ones come out the other".
Also, what work is being done in the machine shop? Is it just for minor repairs and inspections? More in-depth work?
If the former, it should be part of the production line. If not, it shouldn't. Remember, you can't move a locomotive with a wheel in the drop pit.
The Rip track is just for car repair so I thought it should be its own track is that not correct?
the "used" locos will go in the 2 stall building then out the back to the ready tracks.
the machine shop is for more in-depth work.
thanks for the help
