That's interesting about westbounds reversing out of the siding onto the main after a meet. Thanks for the comment and information Ronald.

It should be noted that while the siding was on the south side, they placed the yard on the north side. Back in train order days, yard limits for Ayr extended beyond Wolverton siding. On short westbounds, we would sometimes pull into the siding & then back out. That gave us a bit of a run for the hill toward Drumbo. Doing that move fulfilled the old requirement that we should do one standing train inspecting every 75 miles.
