Operations - Train Orders

Now the fun stuff, operations.

Here is a typical Train Order I use.  The train is called the Scranton Morning train which originates at Harrisburg staging track 4 then pulls and spots cars at Berwick yard and then terminates at Scranton staging yard on track 4.  This is a typed example.  (A form 19 is a typical train order which can be passed on to the train with out stopping, as a opposed to a form 31 train order where the train has to stop and the train order has to be signed by the conductor.)



Here is the same train order but it is hand written.  I like the hand written train order but I think it might be difficult for my guests to read.  Both train orders are made using Excel spreadsheets and the fonts are digital fonts found on the internet.
