Model Railroading > Another Leisurely Caboose Hop, Not!

Exercising some equipment that hadn't been run for awhile and things got interesting! Need a wingman when you got an F40 on your six...Where did I leave my throttle!?!

It really does! Genesis 2.0 Tsunami2 with Scale Sound System speaker and tweaked EQ.

Looks and sounds great Chris.

Thanks Tom. I had no intention of sharing this video when I shot it. I have a thing where I'll run a couple of trains while I work on other projects at the work bench. I'll pick something that hasn't been run in awhile, which is just about everything right now. Normally I speed match them, but this time the F40ph was being cantankerous so I bumped it up a couple of steps and forgot about it. The geep sounded so good, I thought I'd video it, and the F40 caught me by surprise, which I thought was kinda funny. The scene otherwise is far from "share worthy ". I anticipate making good progress this winter on weathering and scenery though, so things will slowly change for the better (I hope).

Great looking trains, your Amtrak looks like an early Capital Corridor train. All Rapido, or is the F40 a different manufacturer?

You nailed it Nathan. I'd like to get a Scale Sound System speaker and a keep alive in the F40. The Horizon cars are gorgeous. Just need a little weathering. Thanks.
