Awesome video Colin!

Awesome 😎 video and catch!!

Interesting they use 60s so much for this stuff. Never would have thought they'd end up doing this kind of stuff when they were new. Wonder if they changed the original gearing.

One question, sorry I'm novice to the whole foamer world , why does the locco not sound off the horns when reversing for a job to alert on coming traffic??

[@PasadenaSubColin]

Basically, if there’s a guy riding on the car for the shove, they don’t have to do the horn
