New ALCO in pair pulls very long train!

[CoggesRailway]

Really pleased, this is what I aquired a second loco for!

The speed is because of the bends and tension in the train, not because it is struggling. I thought it was good to show you can have a nice looking train even running with R1 and 1/35 hills.

Nice video made my eyes go cross eyed watching your train snake run through those R1 "S" bends , I think your have to call your line Snake Pass .

I like it.......great the way the train waltzed around the bends

Snake pass I like it... No I'm not starring that's my son Toby, who is very keen on Trains! Glad you like it Tac!

I was expecting Toby to fall on the train, He did not well done him, obviously a very enthusiastic newcomer. Let us all hope that he stays that way and adds a few friends too.

Great vid, makes a change to see trains running at a nice slow speed. Just like the real thing in the good old US of A.

Nothing wrong with the speed, looks realistic! As a pose to 0-60mph in 2 secs, and a scale running speed of 200mph. Nice work!!! And the radius 1 corners, are great, look at any narrow gauge railway, the HSB in particular.

Great Vid, I have late teen early twenties daughters, strangely they are not quite as enthusiastic about my trains ......don't know why. :thinking:
