[andrewsmit100]

[andrewsmit100]

If you pause at 0:22, the two windows on that White building- I grew up looking out that top window every morning.

Saw this almost daily, I miss it so much now.

So awsome!!! I love the heavy eq. I have a guy building me one of these for my HO layout. 5*'s

[trainzrule5]

Thanks! I am looking for a place that sells BBCX 1000 in HO so I can replicate the train. I know where to get FP9s and gondolas, but you know where I could get matching HO cars?

[83dubbie]

I have the depressed flat cars you will have to paint them I have a friend that makes and kitbashes trains so he is making me a schnabel car with the load so maybe I can give you his email and you can contact him to see if he will make you some

[trainzrule5]

@83dubbie Hey Maybe, i found a kit of this car somewhere online and it looks crappy... how much is your friend asking? i would love to have BBCX 1000 for use at model railroad shows with that transformer!

[83dubbie]

@trainzrule5 Hi he is charged me 200.00 for the car. custom painted with load. It looks so awsome. My only problem is my layout is to small to run it so I just let it sit in my rail yard.

[trainzrule5]

@83dubbie Really? With decals and stuff? Sounds cool because I am in Amherst Railway Society and I think it would be a big attenion getter to replicate this train! I'm interested.

[trainzrule5]

:) Where in USA are we in this video ?

[trainzrule5]

Sorry for late answer... but this was in Bartlett, New Hampshire, USA. (NH is in the NorthEast :) ) Thanks for the comment!

[werdo141]

what engine did they pull the tourist train with?

[trainzrule5]

They pulled the tourist train with B&M Alco #1055.

[werdo141]

thats the first time they used that engine in a while

[trainzrule5]

Really? On railfan weekend it took the place of #7470.

[werdo141]

yeah thats a old engine they have had it for a while

[talltim10]

Why is there a tree in the first gon?

[trainzrule5]

The reason there was a big branch (it was a branch) in the car was because the train went on a line not used much at all so the train hit some branches and a couple went in the gons.

[werdo141]

f-9s are looking nice, gp-7 looks nice too

[trainzrule5]

I know, the FP-9s they have are awesome!

[granitefinder]

They put the GP-7 in the back so more people could play with the big toy. Twice as many engineers.

[trainzrule5]

XD good one, but yeah, they needed a front when they had to bring it back.

[Trainbrain1949]

Are those F9s or FP9s? Great video a once in a lifetime catch.

[trainzrule5]

F9s, thanks for watching!

[CSRR573]

to make switching easier at depot street

[midgetcogger]

why did they put the gp in the back
