LBTA - Pennsy M1 & J1 double-header - HO model railroad

Little Big Trains Association vous offre cette vidéo de quelques aspects de son réseau modulaire d'inspiration nord américaine. Voici une évolution de deux magnifiques locomotives vapeur du Pennsylvania Railroad: M1a (4-8-2) et J1a (2-10-4).

Here is a video of a run of two magnificent PRR locomotives:

The PRR M1"Mountain" has been built for both passenger and freight work, these locomotives spent most of their service lives hauling heavy high-speed freight trains. Many PRR men counted the M1 class locomotives as the best steam locomotives the railroad ever owned.

The PRR J1 "Texas" were called the "War Babies", built in a rush after C&O T1 type. 125 locomotives were built between 1942 and 1944, the largest fleet of Texas type locomotives in existence.

How do you put two locomotives together and run at the same time?(i have a dcc system,Bachmann)

Hello. In fact, the layout operates only on DC. Not DCC. We're currently evaluating the technical possibility to accommodate both configuration (through a simple DPDT switch), as we have a pretty large collection of "DC only" equipment. But to take advantage of the added functionality the newer DCC models offer us, we do need - but temporarily only a DCC power system.

personally I would have liked to see a little weight behind those 2 powerhouses

all in all great vid

(Chuckles!) No kidding, I myself had the same impression when I worked on the rushes I used for this series of clips: "What a shame we missed putting some cars behind this double-header!" and then I found out "we did" but behind only one loc! These BLI models look great, really great. Thank for posting a comment, anyways.

Hi, I made a horrible mistake: Class J1 was not a 2-10-2 but a 2-10-4 Texas type . Sorry!!!

[clcvogue]

Hi everybody,

There no ways to put some freight cars behind, because the first a M1 have no problems but the second loco is a class J1 2-10-2 rigid frame too long for the layout, so it derailed, impossible to put something behind. I know because they are mine!

yeah woops

i got my own J2 2-10-0 decapod #2461 from the Erie Railroad

It should be in two of the videos I am going to ost when I get them off of my other computer
