Here's a short video clip to show the relationship of the National Capital Trackers layout at Baltimore's B&O Railroad Museum to the real trains in the roundhouse. Really great to run O gauge trains in the shadows of the big boys!

Not sure what happened. I re-posted, and also tried to add attachment again. Hopefully one of them will get through.
HUMMMMM?
MAybe it wasn't rated G!!

I guess it was rated GG1, since one of the new G's rolls past first. Look closely and you can see the sparking pantograph.
I see more bad PR on the VL GG1.
I haven't even opened mine up yet.

The fellow (not me) who has this one is very happy with it. I found the sparking neater than I had expected it would be. Good crew talk, too. He's always been a big steam guy, but admits he really likes this one.
How big was the layout?
Very cool to run trains in the shadows of their real life counterparts!

Certainly big enough to give viewers a real taste of what's possible in model railroading I'd say!
Those double stacks look huge!!!
My local real CSX line can't run double so my model world is the same....single stack!!
thx
