Happy Friday!  Here's another one of my recent motive power roster additions...a Lionel Legacy D&H GP38-2.  I had to repair & re-paint some minor damage to the roof and replace and paint the decorative horn.  Not a perfect match on the D&H blue, but it will blend in nicely once the engine is fully weathered.

Great videos guys!!

Jeffrey,

Good selection of trains from last years show.

I had some time to stop at the club yesterday evening and shoot test lap footage of my scale-wheeled MTH Big Boy 4014 (oil-fired or "as restored"). As mentioned in my mini-review a while back, it will negotiate 36" radius (O-72) curves, but detests kinks and/or uneven track in curves (3:56) in the video is where I stopped it as it found uneven track behind the farm and again where it found a kink off the curved turnout (4:27). I actually had not really planned to run the locomotive at the club since we have other members with them already, but had planned on displaying it and running it on my home layout when I get it built (plus the occasional run on 2-rail layouts of people I know). It actually did better than I expected, but we need to clean up a couple of areas with errant trackage.

I Like the video.  But I would like to see more Signal action also. 

Thank, John

Hi B&O Bill 

The short non YT videos are a lot of fun to watch & make. I been on the go all day, but if I have time on NFL Sunday, to watch football and due 30 second video. On my bucket list. I will put it up next week. I use Quick Time for this process.

Here is a video i did tonight. I had a problem with signal issue with this engine and to find out the wires on the DCS/DCC switch was touching.
