The site and sound of a couple of Geeps doing what they were built for on such a great layout is the Coolest thing to a model railroader!At least in my opinion. Very well done video 👍😎🚂🇺🇸
The excellent eye for detail and scenery on this layout is also translated in the sound. The locomotives sound real, the illusion of weight and horsepower are what make this layout absolutely enjoyable to watch and no doubt operate as well.
Always great to see the units go through their paces as they move around some classic old boxcars and refrigerators. I always remember the long track closest to 3rd Street would get 40 ft boxcars for loading the spent grain from Pabst are there sure were a lot of Fallen Flags right up until the end of rail service. I do remember one other use for some of the small Milwaukee Road cars is that the shops here in the late 70s converted some to MOW bunk cars and possibly kitchen or bathroom cars. They were painted an oxide brown and I doubt if more than 12 were converted. While the SOO would have gotten them in the merger I doubt if any made it to theCP era
Are those esu chips? And are you using a PT? The locos sound great! I personally went down the ESU/PT rabbit hole on my n scale fleet. Keep up the awesome work!
@@gmburzynski68 they’re actually Tsunami2 decoders, stock Genesis sound system (although that’s also my decoder to go to for my own installs). I don’t have a Proto Throttle, I’m using just a plain old DT500 throttle. All my locomotives have a speed curve programmed in, along with a lot of momentum.
