Here's the Lionel Lines 773 Lion Chief pulling 13 Cars up and over the Mountains!
The Waste & Ruin TrainHaus has been working on the "New and Improved" Double-Helix "To the Mountains by 3-Rail" Layout in preparation for Middletown, NY RR Day 07/28/2024.
We now have an Associate Engineer/Layout Builder who is a newcomer to 3-Rail Model Railroading, but a real Aficionado of all things Rail-Roading (especially Steam) - Daniel!
Here we are testing-testing-testing with Daniel at the Controls:

Middletown, NY RR Day will also see an interactive aspect to "Double Helix" action - Attendees will be able to run a Lion Chief train themselves, with either our Lion Chief Controller or the Lion Chief App for Apple and Android Smart Phones - they need only download it!
We now have 4 Lion Chief engines, and hope a 5th arrives in time for the show - Daniel's favorite - the "Mikado"!
The Double Helix will Double as a Sales Table and the Prices there will be User-Friendly!
