With the extra meter added to the length of the new garage I have been able to design a small but adequate yard to represent the CB&Q 38th St. Yard and the UP 36th St Yard. They would never have shared the trackage but on my layout they will have to! I now have a 3 reasonable sized yards, the D&RGW North Yard, the C&S Rice Yard and this new CBQ-UP yard.

The new yard is alongside the D&RGW North Yard but only has one crossover connection to allow trains to enter Denver Union Station directly or via the Wye used for turning passenger trains. The crossover also provides access to the engine facilities for both UP and CBQ on the station module. Two yard leads have been provided, one back at Utah Junction and the other doubles with the UP industrial trackage that ran alongside Wynkoop Street.
