Eastern Railroad Discussion > Can't railfan any closer than this--car on rails!Date: 06/29/15 16:50 Can't railfan any closer than this--car on rails! Author: jgilmore Check this out. Rails would probably just love a bunch of 'fans doing this! Maybe get ATCS hard-wired into the car, along with a RR radio for some track and time: "Smart car to the Harrisburg East dispatcher, ready to copy"!

Jeremy made a "sports" train out of some convertible car and the bed of a truck with a big wing to keep it down on the tracks. James and Hammond made a more conventional "train" out of an all wheel drive Audi and 3 campers.
