I have heard over the years several people refer to something called the Time saver switching layout. I gather it was a complicated industrial switching plan designed to make an engineer think about and plan his movements as he dropped off and picked up cars. Does anyone know where I could find a diagram or drawing of this plan? Thanks JB

This was orriginally designed by John Allen and the plan and article appeared in the 1972 MR.
If you can provide a fax number, I can send a copy of the John Allen Switching Contest form, that includes the layout of the challenge. However, you should also look up the rules for proper operation.

I know I have seen this drawing in a few places. I could not find it looking through some recent sites. The internet should be used as effectively as possible. I have a copy from 1975, which I faxed. I also will look in line. Thanks for the input.
