Be careful about planning to take it to events. This stuff can be counted as an amusement, and as such can require inspection and insurance. This is why I keep my stuff on private railroads. Sweet project though and looking forward to seeing more. One more thought, I would not use a true log splitter valve. Make sure the valve your using has some fine control.

ohh good thought, however I probably would only take it to church events and not get paid, but I will look into that, thank you. ( I currently take in my barrel train pulled behind my gator or golf cart every year)

That is a cool find. Shame the original engine is such a pain to work on. Though a newer engine and drive line would likely run quieter and smoother.

I believe I am keeping the original with efforts to restore, so that is why the new drive systems uses the original powered trucks so if I want to go back I can

Absolutely great video; I liked the relaxed presentation (and the train of course) Hope you saw my video on the Bowness mini train somewhere else on KZbin. It’s worth the ride (around 5 buckks). The park itself is free; a ine hour visit is likely to turn into 3 or 4 for you, People small and big ride the train and the big people like to take selfies, while on board. Calgary has 1,5 inhabitants and a US Consulate. In July, the 10-day Calgary Stampede attracts competitors from Texas and other locations; the parade on day one, lasts 3 hours and is 3-4 people deep,
