A Visit to Doc’s Caboose and a New Digitrax System

“I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭40‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬
After facing some struggles with the DCC system on my layout, things are finally looking up with a new controller and accompanying rolling stock, plus another trip to Kansas City for some good train action.
Besides the Bottoms and Murray Yard I also saw some trains on the BNSF Southern Transcon at Union Station but couldn’t get much video.

Is there any particular reason that the bethgon’s are given that glossy coat of paint? It looks incredible.

@@TrainMaster26 I’m not sure. They’re Athearn models, and I have a second set of Athearn bethgons that have the same shine. I would prefer them without the shine but the weathering is spectacular, and I prefer the wagon wheel logo on them.
