I didn't see where you guys did any leveling of the track, just alignment.
I like your ballast car. Simple, yet effective. Do you have extra strong springs under it? Thank you in advance, Pete
This video is very satisfying for me. The ballast car is ingenuity on another level.
Have you guys tried extending the ballast off the edges of the ties a few inches, like about 4? By doing that it give a wider bed and also gives a wider base that is more kick proof from dragging shoes from people shuffling along instead of picking up their feet. It does take more ballast, but in the end, you have a more secure road bed.
You need more videos uploaded.
Keep up the good work.
Y’all need more respect for your hard work
Where would one source narrow gauge small gauge rails like that? I'd stewed over doing a 7 1/4, possibly 5" rail through my yard. Been in my brain for years.
Nice video. A couple suggestions, I imagine most people watching this and other videos like this are here for the train action and not the music, I'd much rather have no music and hear the trains and people only. Copyrighted music can get your video muted or blocked by youtube. Work on smoother camera panning and less or no zooming. Thanks and have fun!
100% agree. I'd much rather see and hear the railroad than hear music and have half the screen take up by the person in the white shirt. Looks like a great little railroad though! Looking forward to more videos!
That’s a nice railroad
Great video! You all are doing nice work!
