Difficult Track Access

I am not particularly enthusiast for Radio Control especially with coal firing when transmitters can be left around to tread on or run into.
However this video shows some advantages as once you have left the dry cover of an overall roof you are immediately in the wet and facing a load of turnouts wickedly protected by a flower bed and thickish shrubs.
That's the easy part as the next 30% of track is elevated to a height of some 20 feet.
Your thoughtful host has fortunately placed ladders at strategic intervals should your engine cease forward movement and you will be able to ascend clutching your transmitter.....?

Interestingly at one point you can reach out of the bedroom window with your shovel and pump handle and make necessary adjustments.
There is a slight complication here as you have to wonder around someones house in wet attire as your host will probably dealing with problems of his own.
Do you have any crazy railways of your own to report??

 
That certainly is an extreme Railway. But what a project. G1 and 3 ers tend to be somewhat anti RC. I think that some of the new options out there for RC Controllers that are about the size of an KGB or Massoth RC Handset and pocketable are the way to go for RC in a Puffer or Even Battery Powered Loco. Leave the twin fingered jobs for the Plane and Boat guys.
