    If only we could see this happen in real life; Challengers and Big Boys are awesome locomotives.

    This makes me think of what it would be like with the 4014 on the way and the 3985 soon after..they could do this! That would be the coolest thing in railroading history!!

    I must say, it's rather a nice touch that the second 4-6-6-4 model is running with the original tender, rather than the 'centipede' tender of the other two.

    • @johnpurdum8126
      @johnpurdum8126 5 років тому

      Silly question but does that equate to more tractive effort for the locos? I would think it does over plastic.

    • @sonysnapper
      @sonysnapper 5 років тому +1

      @@johnpurdum8126 That depends on the weight of the engines vs. plastic. In this case probably as only three engines pulling 100 cars up a 2.5 % grade. I recall another 100 car train required 6-7 plastic steamers on the same layout.

    awesome how much does the track climb to have a doorway that cannot be blocked but I can go above it to clear the door when the train derailment in Field British Columbia that line runs along the mountain forget about that can run a mountain on both sides of the doors and can hind the elevator as well in the mountain and still have place to store unwanted cars to be hidden out of plain view trains that is gone off the for no mans land waiting for the time to come but in to play in the exit couple day on a different line

    Big Boy on steep grades and through tight curves? Doesn't really work for me...
