Got it... thanks.

Twin track good for 12 total carspots... EPIC FAIL.

Even if it is scalable to 24 or 30... unit crude oil trains are 70 cars.

The last crude oil loadout I oversaw near Wink, TX was an expansion from one 60 car track to a double track arrangement for 70 carspots on each track and 10 cars of space on a repair-in-place track... 150 car capacity... scaleable to 210 cars.

I wish I coulda helped... oh, well.
