@dmncau Ahh yes Atlas True Track. I thought about using that, but I'm going to use the Bachmann EZ Track with nickel silver rail. I'm just waiting for my only engine to get back from the shop. I'm trying to hunt down some TTX well cars so I can do intermodal transport.
@pokerguy17 Atlas true track can be cheaper than Bachmann and its much more realistic to look at and you can separate the track from the roadbed! The TTX cars you can get from modeltrainstuff com and they got discounts on Atlas true track!
Yeah I know it can separate from the roadbed. I'm just getting back into the hobby so eventually I might switch to Atlas. Yeah, it's the funnest thing. The TTX well cars were discontinued from Athearn, but I was also looking at getting them from Atlas since I found out Atlas makes them. Stock out in the stores has apparently run out, so I'm going to have to buy online. I'll check that site out right now. Thanks for the advice!
I love your setup man! It reminds me of my new floor layout that I have yet to construct, just with longer straight aways. What is the minimum radius that you use for your layout? I'm going to be using 26 inch. I'm also in the process of getting into DCC, so I think I'm going to have a lot of fun experimenting with that. Anyways, have a great day and happy railroading! :)
Do you have layout yet? Only kids play with their trains or toys on the floor. Adults have an actual layout to run their trains. Running trains on carpet even with E-Z track or Unitrak can still screw your stuff up. Carpet fuzz, hair, etc. can still get into your locomotives, then you are gonna wonder why your stuff runs like shit. If you haven't already, it's time to build a layout, my friend. Just my opinion.
@starguard Yes they are all powered locomotives. The leading locomotive was build by atlas model railroad, second locomotives is an athearn blue box kit and the last locomotive was made by KATO.
I would have to say this is one of your best videos I have ever seen. The music and camera works true shows the power or the former Santa Fe railroad... :)
Ho is really cheap, compared to O scale. But I think there's better detail in HO though. That's why I got HO. I think I have at least 69 trains as of now.
@dmncau yaa, thankfuly when I grow up my wife will let me get the WHOLE basement to myself for my train layout! hopefully you get more and maybe geta layout! cheers!!
@dmncau no gf,wife or kids is a huge money saver for any man!and we do what we want when we want without someone running our lives or making plans for us!
I did'nt know that Atlas made locos with working ditch lights I thought only Kato only did, cause I've got 4 Kato SD90's and 3 Kato SD80's with working ditch lights of course their not alternating, their just solid on. I think they look pretty cool. Nice little fright your got there, Thanks for sharing this video dmncau!!!!!
The leading locomotive is a Atlas Dash 8-40CW I got it from Great Western Trains in Brantford, Ontario, Canada for 139.99 in 2006. The second is an athearn I got it from the model railroad show in Cininncati, Ohio in October of 2003 for $33, and last locomotive a GP35 is a KATO that I got from the Brantford store just a few months ago. $110 was the price. I also have a Santa Fe Dash with sound that is shown in another video. do you have an email?
thx bud need to find a place online or somewhere to find deals on HO scale locomotives made by Athern Genesis, atlas, or KATO in Santa Fe/BNSF, CSX, or Canadian National schemes, CEFX

@pokerguy17 Thank you buddy! This was back in September of 2007 I did this setup.
I was just using basic atlas code 100 track with 18 inch curves. These days I use that pricey Atlas True Track with the roadbed and 24 inch curves.
