RC Trains!? Another "best kept secret" in Sibley, Iowa

The N.W. Iowa Railroad club invited me to see their Model Train layout.
It is very interesting to see what these folks do. I never knew the Trains were radio controlled, along with the switches and lights, etc.
These folks are anxious to show off their trains, so give em a call if you want to bring your class for a tour or just want to come down and watch the fun yourself.
Call for appointment in the off season, or stop by when the Osceola county Fair is running.
The club is always looking for new members too, so if your interested, Give Denny Davids a call 712-754-3996 for more information on the Otter Valley Railroad from the N.W. Iowa Model Railroad Club.
Thanks for watching.
Dave

This clip was absolutely wonderful! Five stars and 15 minutes simply DO NOT do this clip any justice. If they're any plans for more clips, I would be MOST INTERESTED in seeing them. What's more, you've given me plenty of inspiration for my own model railroad project. For this, I humbly thank you. :)

Thanks very much for your comments. I really appreciate that. They are working up a skit for another video, so stay tuned.

Some Modelers can take things to the extremes, weathering that some people do it outstanding.

You'll rarely come across a Model RRer tha isn't as nice as these guys,

Why I love this hobby.

[NightFlyyer]

I randomly got here and I must say I'm really dazzled! Even though I don't know much about rc, I find this both beautiful and realistic, and I must say, I admire your courage and patience for building (creating) this! Love the rail sound, damn it's so real!!! Lots 'o stars, keep it up. Best from Greece.

@NightFlyyer Thanks for making this video, it's been a while since I watched it! My dad is so proud of that railroad, as he and his friends should be. He is one of the engineers (Ken) and he loves this video. He built some of the bridges on the layout and that is his passenger train running. They really enjoy running it and it works good with very few problems (no small feat considering it's size). He is also the "car and locomotive shop" for the club. It is truly impressive to see in person.

In the Pilbara region of Western Australia, iron ore trains can be up to three miles long. The record attempt had a total of 5 locomotives; two up front, two in the middle, and two in the rear, linked by telemetry. The bankers are remote controlled; ore trains are assembled by these strange natural gas powered shunters, and pulled by huge Dash 9s
