This is a fun run video trying out a new 2-8-8-2 and my rebuilt stick-um together part on my Pacific.
Joel’s H. Layout is one we built together to get off the ground and have a 1 % grade like in the Feather River Canyon. We had to go around his yard 4 times to get what he wanted…
He is into Western Pacific R.R. so ya… the new 2-8-8-2 will have changed name from SF. to WP. Anyway enjoy our video… This is just the first video of our run… Noel & Joel.

Very nice, Noel.
The weather was beautiful here too. But I was too busy to run trains =(

Man, that’s a gorgeous loco! Sure wish I could fit one of those monsters on my layout, wouldn’t that look awesome!
just think what the sound would be like coming out of one of your tunnels… wow
