Before starting on the upper deck benchwork to the west of Oakhill
I built the Coos Bay / Siskiyou Line staging area. This area was originally to have 3 tracks. But as
construction progressed I realized I could attach it to the end of South Jackson and use it as a
temporary Pocatello staging area. Since the benchwork above was wide enough it expanded to 5 tracks.
To save room I put a sector plate at the far end which is much shorter than a ladder track would be. The track to the right isn't actually part of Pocatello (or Coos Bay), it's the South Jackson yard lead... |
