Cheyenne and Green River freight
Author: Bob3985

Last weekend I ran my MTH 2-8-2 UP#2498 with a fairly small freight on our Cheyenne & Green River layout.
Enjoy this video as I pass the farm scene.
If ever in Cheyenne we are out in the Frontier Mall across from the theater.

Yes. My MTH loco had issues and I had my friend install a Tsunami decoder and it runs great again. I love to drive my friends nuts with F5 drifting throttle with rod clank. Haha.

Nice!

Maybe next time lower the camera for a realistic "eye-level" view of the passing train.

I will give it a try but unfortunately with our modular layout the back drops do not go very high and it loses the natural effect.

Yes Peter, I found out the hard way that you do not leave your throttle plugged into the layout ports with rechargeable batteries in them. The system back charged until the batteries couldn't handle it anymore. But have to admit they do make a good Hazmat load.
