You reckon' that young guy in 1960's still driving them?

And still finding loose bits? (sort'a reminds me of some of our models out'a the box today)

 

[JazzDad]

I'd walk a double track mainline of the Milwaukee Road as a child, and and there were always lots of loose bits to be found. I carried home a 1 foot long chuck of ~136 pound rail once. It nearly killed me. I still have it. It makes for a outstanding anvil.

If these videos don't bring you some item of inspiration, well, you can have double your money back.

Some how I missed this earlier. I love seeing industrial trackage. For some reason most of us don't model the maintenance deferred trackage all around us. I have some crazy looking trackage on my layout and I run a slow speed train over it the same way.

 

[JazzDad]

It's hard to get a model to run on rough track, especially the smaller scales. I really like the look of them wobbling down the track, though. Let's see a video of yours, RBMN.

My video crashes Tapatalk when I attempt to load the video.
