Hoofhearted & Smelz -- Session 4 Maintenance of Way
This session is for the Hoofhearted & Smelz RRCo - NG Model Trainz Layout.
In this session you will need to manually load and unload the freight cars. The correct way to do this can be found in a youtube video here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjE0oOmXa7k
You will need to decide where to unload the rails, sleepers and ballast but make sure this is near the truck.
Use the map view (Ctrl-M toggles on / off in Driver) to locate the industries and freight cars.
All industries have the prefix IND.
At switches a red disk facing the driver indicates the switch has been set for the diverging track. Ctrl-H will toggle the red/green arrows above the switches on/off.
The switch at the entrance to the loop behind the dry sort yard can not be altered by a mouse click on it because the dry sort yard intercepts the mouse cursor. Either use the map view to set the switch or use J / Ctrl-J to set the switch, depending on whether the switch is to the front or rear of the consist.
At the Dry Sort Yard, logs unload at the south side and load at the north side.
Tasks can be undertaken in any order.
Driving in Cab Mode is preferable.
Further details about the session can be found in the N3V Forum thread here

Chuck and Joe. Sunday. The MoW crew will be doing work up on the plateau. The Roadmaster is already there.
Some drizzle is forecast but that never stops our dedicated team.
You can take the diesel or the Shay. Your choice.
Over near Steamship you will find a rake of freight cars.
Load the skeletons with rail and the flats with sleepers at MoW.
The gondolas are for loading with tailings from the Mine. We use this as ballast.
Before you depart, pick up the caboose at the Freight House. This has the rest of our MoW crew.
Head up to the plateau. The Roadmaster will give you instructions about unloading the rails, sleepers and ballast.
Leave the caboose, as a crew hut, at the Smelz Freight House, load the skeletons with logs from the Dry Sort Yard and leave the skeletons for unloading at the sawmill.
Spot the empty flats and gondolas back at Steamship.
