CTC Machine This is the dispatcher's CTC machine that it used
to control
the model railroad. It has two levels. The black part on top
of each level contains a linear
schematic of the railroad,
with LEDs to show occupancy.
The green part on the bottom of
each level contains the levers for all
switches and signals controlled
by the dispatcher.

Repeater Boards Repeater boards are located above interlockings
"in the sky".
These simulate cab signals and allow crews to easily see signals.

Computer System Dr. Bruce Chubb's C/MRI system is used to run the
signals.
"SMINI" nodes are located around the layout.
A computer controls the system, processing input and output from the
SMINI's.
