Unbelievable video of a pair of BBT drives in action!

This video is from Tom Smith, the president of the Wisconsin Garden Railroaders. They run at the Milwaukee Arboretum quite often. It's a level layout with 20' diameter curves. This video shows two BBT drives that Tom installed in his circus locos, doubleheaded, pulling 73 cars.

In the middle somewhere are seven or eight Aristocraft heavyweight passenger cars. After watching this a couple times, we started to think, "This is trick photography." Tom assures us it is not and adds that they ran the train at top speed in order to include the entire train in the
time available on the video.
