I hope you like this video of a 2 foot narrow gauge rail road in China moving coal. Very interesting critters at work that look almost “homemade”. The side dump cars look straight out of a Bachmann catalog.Picture quality and color to me were amazing. Loved the weathering on the critters and rolling stock. Enjoy.

At 57 seconds check out the radius of that turn…Who says my 1:20 railroad cant make a 8 foot diameter curve that 1:1 track is about that

Interesting! I just watched a show on the RFDTV channel, Chinese Steam Survivors. Showed doubled headed steam engines working a grade over a pass in Mongolia.

Thanks Tom, nice video.

If you let the series run it gets into stem trains in China. Part 4 of 4 is switching out and dumping slag crucibles at a seal mill which yields some neat pictures.
