In this episode, we discuss how an operations designed layout does not need a yard. We talk with three layout owners who either do not have a yard, or use them in a non-traditional manner. Their layouts are fun to operate and have run hundreds of sessions, all without a yardmaster.We also discuss the costs of a big yard. The extra track, switches, plus the ergonomics of designing a yard. The yard is the kitchen of model railroading, everyone ends up there at some point. Please give us your feedback on the importace of a yard in design and operations for your layout.The crew this episode is Ken Borowski, Greg Dahl, and Dan Dossa.
