The next step is to determine the best speaker location within each of the
zones.

Ophir Loop
Palisade

Zone 1
Telluride
Vance Jct.
The first sound zone on the layout would be the Telluride yard. This zone is
shown in red on the track plan above. To determine the best speaker location
measure the halfway point between the end of the Telluride Yard and the
block divider. This location will help make the sound noticeable regardless of
the activity in and about the yard.
The second sound zone will cover Vance Junction. When installing the block
detector for this section you may want to have the block start just inside the
hidden staging loop so that the sound dispatches as the locomotive exits the
hidden staging area shown in yellow. The speaker would sound best, in this
case, right around the siding at Vance Junction.
