The Homestead Sub Part 2

The Homestead Sub is presently my alternate choice. Now, there are so many industrial options there as well, and trains caught on Monday, May 9, 2011 stress this.

• On Monday Morning V157, the Corbin, KY-Miami, FL coal train arrived.
• O721 left for CYDX with empty hoppers and loaded cement tubs
• Y220 left for the Lehigh Spur with loaded coal hoppers, empty coal ash hoppers, and three boxcars.
• O721 returned with 2 presumably loaded rock hoppers for local distribution and two empty Covered Hoppers from Orr Water Treatmeny
• Y220 returned with those three boxcars since they go to a Hialeah industry.

You can see the last three bullet points with this video.









Unlike the current strategy for the Miami Sub which would have limited provisions, this idea also seems a bit attractive because of the variety. I can start from that West Rail industry, model the Lehigh a short bit, and model the Homestead's four industries. This also shows the first time there were two simultaneous jobs since January.

Alternates are good to explore in the event the Miami Sub may be a slightly overrated project. Hell, I didn't bench yet and will soon in one month.
