Status: Cancelled

Submitted: 12/18/16  ? By: John Eilers       Location: HO Layout       Category: Trackwork

Assigned: 05/06/17   ? To: Tony Twiddy       Priority: Medium       ETA: 08/31/17

Skills Taught:   None

Detailed Description (What):

Rename all towns and control points to imaginary names that will be memorable. Print names on to fascia so people can see them

Reason(s) (Why):

Nobody knows the current names, and they’re all named after locations on the Donner Pass route, but none of the places LOOK like they’re on Donner Pass route. This is a Freelancce layout. Should have freelance names.

Notes:

Locations could be named after club members current or former. (Floydville, Smokeytown) Or descriptive (Fallcreek, Fir Ridge) Also, add directional indicators.
Tony to run details past club.
Cancelled per general club vote 9/9/17.

Operations requires consistent naming we all understand. So labeling is key.
