Apparently NS also has Woodchip hoppers similar to FPBX, although they are filed under a different type-class. Type E707 Class GTS Plate F. Only the NS Plate F are similar. Longer than 61' but dunno if they are 72'.
Reworked the module and the drop-in dumper. Added 2 tracks in the module back area so a locomotive can go around-behind the dumper, and a box the trains would go through and the electronics and wires can sit on.. on the way to camoflage the wires and make it look industrial-ish.
After viewing videos of dumpers and positioners it seems the positioners are on the empty side of the dumper. Many things i do not know at all :) Real Coal looks a lot smaller than what i use. o well i like to see the lumps and do not want little grains getting into the works. Someday i will check out what Walnut shell gun cleaner actually looks like.
In the meantime i will be soldering parts onto a Homebrew protoboard to make a permanent controller and not worry that parts get joggled into a short circuit.
