BNSF / RJ Corman Interchange Operations | HO Scale Model Railroad

Thanks and yes I plan on doing a proper tour of the railroad.

You've done wonders with your layout since your last video!

[@milepost33]

Thanks Matt! I really appreciate that. So much more to do… nothing is finished!

Where did you acquired your acid tank car with the pinkish center strip at the load station?

[@milepost33]

That tank car is an Athearn Genesis that I believe came from Arnie’s Trains in Westminster, CA.

Where did you get all your trains and how did you weather them
Love your videos new subscriber

[@milepost33]

Thank you very much! I’ve been into model railroading for over 40 years and have been collecting since I was young. I have weathered some of my rolling stock and I typically use weathering chalks and an airbrush.

[@T_Man365]

@@milepost33 ok thank you and wow 40 years!! I want to do this someday this looks awesome keep up the good work!

[@apoult32]

How do trains get to your upper level? Helix?

[@milepost33]

No helix but just a straight climb at a 2.5% grade.

[@Bnsf7672]

How did you consist your locomotives with different decoders

[@milepost33]

As long as the decoder address is properly programmed for each engine it shouldn’t matter the decoder brand. At least in my experience. I have a Digitrax system for DCC.

[@Bnsf7672]

@@milepost33 I have Prime Mover functions with auto start with tsunami decoders and F8 for ESU and when I try to start the locomotives in a consist one tries to start and the other shuts down. I know that they are properly programmed but the F8 mute is really annoying for the Tsunami decoders
