    Layout looks great. Only thing I will comment on is the rack work and it is totally professional. Straight as a rail should be. I just looked at another road and the track work was just horrible. You have the best track that I have seen in a long time. Someone actually had a straight edge when laying it. Thanks for the great work...

    I got one of these #420 CSX, and the locomotive horn sounds great and looks great overall, but the engine itself runs very quiet, almost annoyingly quiet. Also one of my ditch lights was dim may check the CVs but I imagine they use the same setting.

    the most unique lashup of the program led by BNSF 97 and that is the one that isn't chased. yet we had to stare at those ugly chargers far too long.

    • @HybridHobby
      @HybridHobby Před 3 měsíci

      My apologies that you didn’t enjoy the video! Some background information: BNSF 97 was leading another member’s train. As operators at the museum, we must stay with our trains when operating. Most of the trains filmed are what I am running for that day’s run session. Occasionally when in the yard or following around my train, I will catch other trains on film similar to the train that was being led by BNSF 97. As a mental note for myself; I will try to improve and grab more shots of other’s trains when running next time! Cheers!
