...level...straight and true, Just get an old steamer (preferably a Bachmann) and...waaalaa...in no time...you're prototypical !!!... http://vimeo.com/2578284 :tb-biggrin::tb-biggrin::tb-biggrin: .
:tb-biggrin::tb-biggrin: LOL! If we could only get N stuff to go over switches and track like that, I've seen plenty of yards and industries like this!!!
Yikes! That thing is little, but MEAN! The sound of that whistle can give me nightmares! "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
That was surely incredible. What’s amazing to me is that you can clearly see how bad the track is without the Shay bouncing all over the place. Thanks for sharing! I don’t think I’ll ever forget it.
Reminds me of when I rode along in an old MLW on the Kelowna & Pacific Railway a few years back. At this one point they told me I better hold on tight to something, and the best idea would be to sit on something, but with all the seats taken, only thing available was the floor. But I wanted to see out so I just held on to a bar. Bad idea. It was so bad that it wasnt possible to stand holding on to anything, you had to be sitting. I was couldn't even move to brace myself against a wall I just fell over haha. The phone came off the hook and papers on to the floor and everything. Didnt phase the crew one bit but it felt to me like I was in a 1 minute long car crash haha! It was so bad that the bell in the locomotive was ringing, just from the force of the engine swaying back and forth! Good times on shortlines!
