@bradstrains I dont have any AC6000's. My most powerful engines are the diesels. They all have 2 motors in them. Each one could probably pull 50 cars as long as it is a level surface.
@JDStucks Yeah diesel power is great! My railking SD70M-2 can pull 40 cars up a 4% grade! I bet you could pull allot on your wide radios curves my engine was pulling 13 freight cars and 11 passenger cars on 0-36 when the front cars fell into the curve!
JD, Thats an awesome BNSF tandum with those ES44s. Like the layout with the double main. Hope you consider a backdrop, your drywall is a perfect mount for it. I just added another backdrop to my far left wall, it adds so much to the visual.
Wow thanks Rich!!! Coming from you, thats awesome! You should check out my more recent videos, alot has changed. Some of it may seem a bit familiar to you :) Thanks again!!!
Cool engines you got running do you have any MTH or Lionel AC6000s? What is your most powerful engine?

Hey man what is the radius of your curves?
GunMetalJeep45 1 year ago
O80 on the outside and O72 on the inside. There is nothing smaller than O72 on the layout.

Way more than that. Each engine is around $400 to $500 and each car is $40 to $199. He also has a few nice buildings.
