>>BNSF at the Berkshire Hathaway Shareholder's Meeting<<

Very interesting post.  Many of us think you have our dream job!  Model trains and meeting Warren Buffet to boot.

The Train Simulator looks fun…..I mean Educational.

Thanks for the pictures and the post.

K.C.

I hope Lionel brought lots of oil tankers with for long train. The shareholders will understand revenue generation.

 

Any other changes to this wonderful layout?

 

Thanks for the photos.

  If the ball bounces off the rock formation and is caught by the right fielder is the batter out ?

I am Totally Impressed with this Great Layout and the BNSF Color Scheme...This Layout is Beautiful and Looks to be State of the Art. I am glad That Warren Buffet likes Lionel Trains. Also, thanks for the Pictures...This is really Cool.

Love the sandlot field!  Fits nicely in that narrow area, too.  The bikes thrown down...nice touch.

I think they call that the "Rock Monster", and the ball is in play.  

It the tank cars derail do they...

 

I wonder how long it will be before Lionel comes out with exploding tank cars?  Gomez Addams would be soooo proud.

Looks really good again this year.

Did Lionel divert a bulk shipment to a distributor to get that extremely long train of 30,000 Gallon Tank cars?

Thanks for sharing!

 

Peter

The real train simulator controller looks fun to operate.

I was thinking the same thing.....Greg

Found out I own some Berkshire Hathaway   Guess I should have come to the meeting

Good eyes Carl!

 

We modified the Lionel tank car to accept the MTH 20-89010 Premier Freight Truck with operating ETD (End of Train Device).

 

There were 21 tank cars running on the layout with three Diesels and one buffer sealed sand hopper car between the Diesels and tank cars.

 

Here is a pick of the real tank cars on the video wall: 

 

 

and on layout:

 

 

Some fun facts about the tank cars, when they are all on the layout it's about 36' long - an impressive sight to see for sure!

 

Here is pic of the package the MTH ETD came in... that I believe is NOT the product in the packet...

 Here's picture with the train passing by the ballgame

 

VERY nice!  Thanks!!!!
