Re: [CBQ] Savanna and Oregon, IL Local Switching Duties

James,

The tracks were connected to the River track well into the 80s. The Mt Morros jobs engine tied up on the River trk, just east of the Carnation switch so as to be out of the way for set outs and pickups and not get buried by cars.

Leo,

Thanks for letting me know. I was last in Oregon in September of 2005. While all the tracks were in place into the plant, they had no actual connection to the rest of the former CB&Q system, so were totally isolated.

I was trying to figure out when I model my version of Oregon, IL, if I could or should include the Carnation Milk Plant in my schemes for operations, but apparently, since I'm modeling 1988-1990, and they lost rail service the year I was born, there's no need for me to have those tracks in place on the module.

Best Regards

James
