An Athearn Genesis SD60M and an Athearn RTR SD60 get a Roadrailer train underway after a brief stop. Both are equipped with Soundtraxx Tsunami decoders.
Where can I buy the special trucks for carrying trailers like that? I've seen them on several videos now and they are awesome :) They make my spine cars look bulky by comparison.

@crazyfvck Roadrailers are a combination of special trailers and trucks that run in dedicated Roadrailer trains.
They are made by Bowser Model trains.

Major tweaking has been done to the decoder for sound levels, motor control and lights.
