[EJE665]

@shumacwilder Yes it is

[DaftStrings]

I wondering how it gets across the road with out electric pick-up rail.

[EJE665]

I think they just build up speed and it just coasts across the street.

[heelblocks]

I think all the cars have pick ups on them so As long as its not a train length long its okay.

[cn2532]

[EJE665]

Nope, the first photo has been posted from Steamtown and it is a AC4400CW again.
