The ROCK 3.0: Video on Scale Operations

Here is a video I put together on the scale at Ottawa Silica.  The scale is by Boulder Creek Engineering and is fantastic for creating realistic operations.  It uses infrared sensors to detect cars as they pass over the scale.  The scale will ramp up and generate a random weight in the range you set.  In between cars, the scale ramps back down to zero.  On my layout, any cars over tonnage must be set off at the plant to be reduced by plant employees and then re-weighed again.
