Impressive. Thanks for sharing that with me. I am in Korea now working on our projects for 2010. Hope you have a good holiday season.

Scott,
Check out the most recent video at
http://www.trainweb.org/ttat/. Go > to photo album and click on more pics for access to home page and videos. Bill Lohman and I combined our 3rd Rail Big Boys (4023
and 4024) to pull 68 car PFE reefer train on TTAT 40x40 ft layout. The train stretched halfway around layout. Added 4 more cars later for a total of 72 (mostly Atlas) reefers. The S-curve was 120 inch diameter K-Line Shadow Rail on tracks 1, 2, and 3. 96 inch on tracks 4 and 5.
If you go back to March 09, midway thru video, you will see the JLC Challenger pulling the Fast Mail with the first set of 3rd Rail Harrimans. Also, you will see the Daylight GS-2 pulling a complete SP heavyweight train.
Hope you enjoy both videos. There are several other videos as well.
Sincerely, Rick Dolifka
