Nice.  So is the new siding called Marlong or Wacel?

As nice of a ring as some of those have it is considered "Two Main Tracks" and not a siding per se.  One end is Walong and the other is Marcel (no east, north, west, south, sideways, slantways, longways, backways, frontways, squareways, or any other ways that you can think of in front of Marcel or Walong).  8)

C'mon, you gotta convince the Powers That Be (or at least the dispatchers) that it's Way-Longer.   :D

Oh I would love to   ;)    On a serious note though the process for naming control points gets extremely political so the more I stay out of it the better  :D

This may not be exactly related to the Walong-Marcel or "Walonger siding" but for anyone interested the new switch for South (West) Cliff (CP SP344) will be installed soon as part of a siding extension @ Cliff.  It won't be in-service yet as track lengthening and replacing signals will also need to be ready to roll but this is progressing.

Isn't south the same as east (not west)?
