26:15 If you lay the unload tracks separately, you can actually get three cars in if you space it right.

Over the dock where you dropping cordwood and iron ore . I noticed you have a zigzag between the two docs. It is my most humble opinion. That it is simpler to run a straight track starting from the end of the cord wood, nearest the iron ore . To the end of that Doc from marry me to add at least six switch tracks. Then have a piece of straight track long enough to place. delete all the switches straight track you put down. In front of the dock for the cordwood. With that little piece of straight truck out there attached to another straight track 3° positive incline and head towards the iron ore pile . Preferably with an iron bridge track. Once you reach the middle of the iron ore hill . You can start heading back down to the ground. And then add switches to each end. So you can attach a track to the iron ore dock

Nice solution. The beauty here is that we can all be creative with our solutions. In a previous series, i raised the track, laying it at a diagonal, taking the track in a straight line over both platforms. No zig zag needed, and this worked fine also. I wonder what over creative solutions people have come up with.

It’s where you take the oil tankers to the refinery becomes real fun. for the most part on this Location. I like to fill it up with ore to get the hight of the mountain right and then just build a bridge over it. So that I have maximum docking to unload as a roll by . I guess the major benefit of filling the ore is that the pay is pretty good to unload the ore

Just a thought.... where you have an uneven set of platforms, could you not keep the rails much straighter if you assumed the first platform came up on the left and the second to the right? Good episode by the way!

Unfortunately tried that a couple of years back but it's not possible. The cheatiest way of doing it is to raise the track to platform level and straight line the track over parts of the platforms. As long as the goods drop somewhere on each platform it counts. We did that last year in the gold series.
