This view shows the "albany" end of lower level staging (on the
left). The track on the right leads downhill from Bear Creek to
Albany Junction where the staging leads split - arriving trains
take the left leg, trains departing staging will appear on the
right leg. There was insufficient space to have two 180 degree
turnback curves adjancent to one another so they were overlapped -
necessitating the double curved diamond at Albany Crossing! But
allowing a much more convienient staging operation (staging contained
on a reverse loop allow uni-direction train operation).
