The actual operations session should provide participants with the feel of prototypical operations. Train crews will have Track Warrants specifying arrival and
departure times at each location. Yard and terminal crews will have a separate switch list for each train detailing how the consist should be built. Meets
will occur at passing sidings as the trains move across the layout. Some simplifications will be needed, both because of the inherent limitations of T-TRAK
as well as the lack of previous experience operating on this "show" layout.
TT-OPS Software
The TT-OPS software is hosted on the Green Valley Railroad Club website. It is designed to quickly enable a T-TRAK Operating Session on the day of the event.
Output from the software includes: track warrants for each train, train schedule, meets schedule, string-line diagram, switch lists for yard and terminal crews
to build trains, and switch lists for train crews to service industrial switching areas.
