In this vid I am trying a little harder to steady the camera, and capture more relevant material. I will show you the roads flagship (only) motor painted to colors reflecting the MF&S it will be pulling a local for the valley town it will include two run-though Santa Fe passenger cars a Coach/combine and a coach a Great Northern Reefer for the Brewery (shown later in the vid) an NS TOFC with a triple crown 40 ft trailer and a Borrowed waycar from the BN. I will take you on brief tour of town to see the dairy distributor(the bright red bld) down main street and on to my route 66 you will see the sawmill and lumber warehouse you see the town passenger depot many times the water tower on the mountain the UNOCAL 76 Truck Stop the fire house a feed and ranch store you see the competing Coca Cola and Pepsi Snack Stands a future playground will separate these establishments at the end of the show you will see a special speed record attempt being set where the quality of track work will be tested at scale speed topping 130 mph not prototype correct but its for your enjoyment the camera will pan suddenly at the end due to the great Northern car coming off the rails at high speed within the tunnel prompting a emergency application of the brakes and summons of wreck crews to assess the impact on the pike. Note the car that derailed has plastic not metal wheels and tends to climb off more frequently this derailment was not the fault of track work Please enjoy and take into consideration I am a amature at Audio Visual Photography and I am still practicing the whole craft of modeling feel free to eave constructive comments. Also NOTE : Photography is done with regular digital picture camera as to why there is you tube audio added .
If you use graffiti decals you make the cars more realistic, and better

yeah but I model a freelanced model and we do not have a police dept because there is zero crime it may be unrealistic but thats why they call it freelanced(not modeled after a real place or era), I have brand new 1950 chevys rolling with brand new Corvettes plus I indiscriminately run power from the 1930s with power from the the 1990s and newer I run what I enjoy and model what I would like America to be like, I understand I can not change reality but I can model what ever i want In my world.
