Ride with two GP-9s

[spike]

Already had a Rio Grande GP-9......got a another in a bargain from Mike Beavercreek.
In between rain managed to run both today.
Here they are pulling 13 Bachmann hoppers that are extremely heavy, left out in rain and
they are full of water

Nice video Mike I take it the camara was water proof sitting in the hopper full of water Are your hoppers used as a sprit level Mike on your line to check gradients
