After Session Maintenance

During the 160th session we sold (donated) three uncoupling sticks, two timetables and one engine card.  All of these have been replaced.

Documentation has also been updated for the extras and the Thorny Point YM.  (A call from the Thorny Point board of supervisors Charmian complaining about blocked streets necessitated the Thorny Point documentation update.  And I needed to clarify the RF&P interchange process at the end of the day to allow for more cars to be spotted.)

The Thorny Point entrance turnout that was reported to be intermittent was repaired.

And test were run on the radio receivers.  When both were disconnected the radio did not work.  This was a good sign indicating they were not a wasted purchase.  However when each one was added back alone everything worked.  As expected.  So for the next session I am going to disable the receiver at the roundhouse and see if there is some form of interference between the two going on.  Probably not.

And finally the interlock system worked just fine, as expected.

So now it is on to more scenery.
