I need some help. Either to stop me from doing something incredibly nuts or kick me in the backside and say, "DO IT!"
So I have this double slip. I've been looking at my trackwork and after my last mod I want to change the location where my caboose track is. I know it seems really silly that I'm having these thoughts, especially because I'm handlaying...however...I'd rather make the changes now while I'm still doing the trackwork, then after I move on to other projects and it becomes harder.
So here is the photo...with the double slip "in place".
So at the bottom. A single stub track would extend down and right along the edge of where my bench is. I may park my locos there while I work just to look at them. LOL.
The top track of the slip on the right connects to one of the yard tracks with some mods. The top left track would extend up to where that existing t.o. is located...which would be removed if I do this. Essentially, I end up with another yard track and a stub to park my caboose. The outer track would be a run around.
So I need some opinions. Should I do this? Testing of the slip is promising. It is nearly perfect in terms of gauge. Sounds like I'm trying to convince myself doesn't it? LOL.
Anywho...I may or may not do this. Help me decide.
