Interesting.

Although:
And that bit of land to the side of the train track on the left between a field and the track? It’s known as the CESS or “Formally the 10 foot”.
Formerly?

Yes - a recent rulebook change. Really.

The Cess has always been the Cess, the 10 foot was until recently the space between the lines in a multi track layout.

Cess |4ft| 6ft |4ft| 10ft |4ft| 6ft |4ft| Cess

:p
The ten-foot is the space between one line and another where there is a wide space between a pair of lines and there are three lines or more. This distance may be less than 10 feet.

Not as easy at the 379. I prefer a single control handle over a two handles. The hardest bit was making sure I hit the AWS!
