2011 live steam Halloween haunted garden railway backyard railroad construction train rides

2011 development of my backyard train, filmed during the Halloween train ride. The steam locomotive drives by our GE 25 diesel switcher. The Halloween decor are light and not scary, so that our young railroaders do not get scared. More to come with other themes during the year, such as Polar Express, Easter egg hunt.
Very nice fall colors in the backyard.
Track is 7.5" gauge 1.5" scale.

My understanding is that it depends on the by-laws of the society managing the track. In our situation, it is a private track with adult supervision on site. My son is a fourth generation train hobbist and has been driving for the last 7 years under my supervision. Hope it clarifies.

There are no such laws on running equipment steam or otherwise in my state. If so, farmers would not be able to have kids run tractors. I would not have been able to have my 12 yr. old cut my grass with the garden tractor. You may be thinking of a rule at your track. Those rules are set by the members. Sometimes the insurance folks get involved. Jim O'Connor

not to be rude or anything, but the kid is clearly under 18, and a person under 18,i think its 18, it may be 16, can not drive a live steam locomotive without a licensed person in the car behind him, and the two others with him were not at the age limit, so what you did was illegal.
