Playing with really big trains on the Bay Coast RR.

That was really cool to see–thanks for posting it. I missed this thread till just now.

Do they have to time the barge to the tide? I assume there would be a failry limited range the ramp could handle

The tide really isn’t a huge factor with the barge, the wind is. Anything over 20 knots will keep the barge from going. Other than that, the barge will float if there is a load to move, day or night.

TJ Thanks for sharing the pics and we are glad to see the job is going well for you. Merry Christmas Ian & Frances

TJ; tnx for sharing the links as well–and yes the sound on the vid definitely is protesting! We have some track near Woodstock on the CP that currently is used for storage. Does the same protest.
