What gauge is this?

[CaptainHarlock999]

@TheMrBlinx As the title of the video states, it is 15" gauge.

Is the train open to the public, or just for your own amusement?

[CaptainHarlock999]

@youtship Public during specific events. Search for "hillcrest and wahtoke railroad" on google. The next railfest is coming in March, and its open during the christmas tree and pumpkin seasons.

@sgtwylde1996 yeah, it looks like it, or there's another baldwin centennial 4-4-0 with a radley-hunter stack and Eureka & Palisade paint that I don't know about :]

@TheMrBlinx Read the title.

[diamondrio21]

oh how cool are these trains, i want one this is excellent !.

[bcschmerker]

Nice job balancing what I call a "pinch" doubleheader: a tall-drivered 4-4-0 with a short-drivered 2-6-0. Railroads might cross freight and passenger types under extraordinary circumstances where there might be no second locomotive of the appropriate class to spare for a hard grade pull.
