I'm putting together some instructions for use with my (very basic) 'timesaver' layout that will be going to a show soon and I need help with some correct terms.
In the UK we use the term 'shunter' meaning someone who couples and uncouples the waggons (cars). What is the correct American equivalent?
Would this person be the one who would be responsible for telling the driver (engineer) where and when to stop during the shunting process.
When I've completed the instructions I'll post them here to see if they make sense.
TIA
