Hope everyone had a safe and fun holidays.
I just down loaded the new B&M route with the intent of making template. The problem is over 75% of the sidings do not have markers and the tracks that do they are crowded together so you can't use the full length of the siding. There are tracks that go over to the Portsmouth Navy yard and there could be a whole days work over there, if there were markers. The Question is: How hard is it to add markers and name them and or move them to make room on the siding so I can make a template? This is a great route for all the New England Railroaders, not the entire B&M but almost all of the lines in southern NH with a nice yard at Portsmouth. Thanks. Peter -------------------- Peter

Moe and Pete,
Thanks for the update, I will be looking foward to the updated data. I'm planing a template in the early 50s when some of the lines were still intact, That way I can use early generation engines like the HH660, RS-3 and GP7s. The HH660 or a 44 tonner would be great to work the Navy Yard. In the mean time I will explore the route to see where everything is. I'm going to check out the Book Lost Railroads of New England to see when some of the lines were pulled up to get an idea as to the traffic patterns. Just a question is it hard to change the markers? Every now an then I run into some that don't work and it would be great to modify them. When I did the template series for the Jersey City Route I ran into some miss marked markers that did not work correct so I left them out of the templates, Knowing how to fix them would be a help. Thanks. peter -------------------- Peter
