.... I am pretty upset about this, on my old layout I had as a kid, I always had a freight train and a passenger train running together, and it was really neat.

You do know that you can run them together in ways that were impossible when you were a kid, right?

I hope I'm not teaching you to suck eggs here, "no offense intended", etc, but the "experts" will tell you that running two round in circles get's boring, fast - Now you can have a "prototypical" passenger train running, and the freight must get out of the way. The switcher(s) have to prepare the freight cars etc etc - You can "play" alone or with others.....

Don't be upset! :)

Cheers,

Haha, yah I hear ya. I think it will work out well. Can anyone help with a quick track plan for one main line, with some sidings, a large yard, and possibly a turntable? My locos are 95% diesel's, and I have 2 really nice sets of passenger cars with matching locos I'd like 2 run. I also have a ton of freight cars I'd like to use. Thanks again for all of the help!
