An American Flyer C&NW 283 pacific running in the garden

Here is an American Flyer S Gauge C&NW 4-6-2 pacific locomotive catalog number 283 with a freight train of original and repainted American Flyer freight cars running in the garden. The 283 could just handle this load (but maybe I should oil some of the freight car bearings).

Thank you Mark.

Based on your comment I have weighed the cars and to my surprise the depressed center flatcar weighs only 1.5 times the weight of a boxcar!

That is so cool. Nothing like trains running outside.
