I got four more UP passenger cars from Ray’s sale. I added them to my five I had and pulled them all with the Challenger. Did real well.
That is one impressive train.
The Challenger looks like it is up to the “challenge” of pulling all that weight. You must have very slight grades if any.
That last photo is Super.
The Big Boy is capable of somewhere around 200-250 cars, so the Challenger should be similar.
Not a bad looking train.
Nice!
Another tender, oil conversion, and it will look like the real one.

I’m a big fan of MTH. I have the feeling you’re describing the USA version? Not sure the MTH would haul that many?
That looks Sah-Wheat!!!
I think the video is better… Nice run Jerry…

Sorry it took so long to post due we are not compatible with LSC.codeing. But finely got it up for you…
Thanks Noel. Not sure how to do it here. Used to do embeding on MLS, but that seems to be messed up.

I’m actually talking about the MTH one–it has eight traction tires. The USA has zero.
I suspect the MTH will outpull the USA.

HI Jerry… I have the darn win 8 with darn setting that has to be changed on each train link to do anything… Neither one is compatible to win 8 on my setting.
On here with IE 10 had to take off the campatible view off and use brackets with old share code in u-tube and then back space one hit on the link with the bracket… Go fig that out. lol
Other site have to use IE 10 with compatible view and old share code in there short cut box. Firefox is about the same way or won’t work at all.
Hope that help, but probably not since both link have changed there program for there use and Microsoft changed there upgrades too. So we just have to punt… lol.
Glad we could help.
Nice!
