Think You Got It, John!!!!!!!

I am including 3-maps excerpts  (URLs  at the bottom of the email 
following the URL for 1431:::::::)
.
01.>--    PTM Map 06 Loop
.
02.>--    ERA Map 06 Loop
.
03.>--    Possible Map 06 Loop
.
.
Maps 01 and 02 seem to match and 1431 is sitting on the dedicated 360 
loop between the switches outbound and inbound from/to the 6-line.       
What is a little confusing about this configuration is the Purpose for 
the Complete Loop  --  unless the section of the loop between the 
inbound switch and outbound switch is enough to allow storage of a dead 
car!!
.
It would have seemed Much More Expedient to have another leg to the 
configuration ala the dash line in the 3rd scan to allow an outbound 15 
to loop here and return downtown Or to allow an inbound 13 / 14 to loop 
to return to Keating over the 15/10!!!!!!!
