Inglenook and TimeSaver Puzzles

In exploring how to abuse Calc, I created a spreadsheet to aid in setting up consists for playing either the Inglenook Puzzle, or the Timesaver Puzzle.  That spreadsheet can be found at https://app.box.com/s/lmq9hulgajvigp2vlqqsweixz7c3w0vn and https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-oHFbiOLcT3NEpWVHZJRG52MGc/view?usp=sharing.

A description of the Inglenook Puzzle, and its rules can be found at http://wymann.info/ShuntingPuzzles/Inglenook/inglenook-rules.html.

A description of TimeSaver Puzzle, and its rules can be found at http://www.wymann.info/ShuntingPuzzles/sw-timesaver.html.

Along the way, I started a spreadsheet for scale modeling,
This spreadsheet can be found at

16 December 2015 Update.

An updated Inglenook.ots template can be found at
https://app.box.com/s/nmtxoj2m9yt2cxif5f3eguuz4bjxdhm4.  I changed the format so that TimeSaver and Inglenook conform to the "usual" rules. It also has a sidings, spurs, and mainline page, that create random consists, for other model railroad operations.
