  • Sorry I haven't posted new videos for awhile. I've been busy and RR video has been waaayyy on the backburner. If some troll posts nasty comments I apologize if I don't delete them quickly.

  • Just got to find the pump car then, and convince them to let me do it.

    Well, the only original piece they could get would be the Reno, and I would sooner trust her with a scrap dealer who hates railroads then with the Recon people, and she is probably beyond the Grays financial ability (my estiment, between $400-750K to restore). So I guess no original equipment, unless that box car with the Reno is still standing.

  • Well, if you'd be willing to buy a V&T style pump car, give it your best shot. That would be pretty cool! I'd like to see some original V&T equipment on their line, they have no original stuff; they aren't really the V&T RR at all until they buy some original cars or engines.

  • I didn't know Tom Gray was so involved in the recon project. I seriously hope he is the one to take over after the state fails at it's over-budget attempt!

  • It will be a beautiful ride, and honestly i would love to do it on an old style pump car.
