JLS Railroad Ground Line Reverse Loop
Ground Line Reverse
Loop
The following extension was planned by Randy Knaub and carried
out by Skip Densing and Jonathan Landon (myself). Prior to this
extension, in order to turn a train around, from Southbound (our
normal direction of travel) to Northbound, or visa versa, a lengthy
trip up the Helix was necessary to access the large reverse loop
atop the table in the H-Yard. If a fast turn-around was needed,
this much traveling proved to take too much time. With the addition
of this simple set of turnouts, an interchange was formed between
the 2nd and 3rd Line, forming a reverse loop due to their arrangement.
