BURNT HILLS AND BIG FLATS RAILROAD
Color Coded Tacks

Freight car forwarding is accomplished on the model through the use of color coded tacks on the roof of the cars. Although less realistic than paper waybills, the tacks make it easy to keep track of which cars go where. Once delivered, cars stay in their delivered location until re-tacked at the end of the "second shift". Listings are arranged from South to North.
