RTSL Operations Session | Island Ops 2026 Friday Evening
Apr 09, 2026 12:01 pm
Hello ,
You have signed up as 1 of 4 operators for the Friday Evening operations session at the Riverside Transfer Shortline Railroad during Island Ops 2026. Please reply to this email to confirm your attendance. I do understand that life happens, please let me and the Island Ops registrar know ASAP if your schedule has changed. [email protected]
The doors will open at 6:30pm (or whenever you arrive), with the first train leaving at 7:00pm. We will operate for approximately 3 hours.
If you would be willing to share, what interested you in operating on the RTSL during Island Ops? It is my goal that everyone has a good experience operating on the railroad.
Here are two documents that might be useful for your enjoyment of the session.

There will be 4 positions on the Railroad. Selkirk Yardmaster (Classification Yard), Riverside Yardmaster (Industry Support Yard), San Juan Hill Switch Engineer (more switching) and Road Engineer (many trips across the layout).
I am looking forward to our operations session Friday Evening.
Thanks,
Heath
