Hi Carl,

I'm convinced you and I are interpreting Cooper's original plan differently.
Where you see the interface to staging as a wye as you've illustrated in
option 3, I see it as two separate leads that can be used to access
staging/reversing section when trains on the main are traversing the main
loop in a counter-clockwise path.

Cooper, can you repost the original overall plan so we can work this out?
Carl and I obviously have different interpretations of your original plan -
the best outcome for you depends on Carl and I interpreting your plan
correctly!

Best regards,

Steve
