These old videos are so helpful to me eric. Grzyboski’s has a Conrail ballast tamper I’m gonna pick up and its so nice to put this on and see what I’m in for lol. I also really wanna try and find a track mobile at York but they are so dang expensive like 300+ bucks for every one I’ve seen !

You should organize videos by type of product, like MOW stuff like this, locos, cars, decor, etc. Also that gang car brings back my first model train memory. I Went to visit my grandparents house and found it in a box and I remembered being so fascinated by it.

Is it possible to modify a TMCC speeder to have a coupler on the rear? I have some RMT passenger cars I want to use with it but the speeders don't have any couplers.
@Ericstrains2 жыл бұрын
I suppose anything is possible, but I wouldn't recommend it. The speeder likely isn't powerful enough to pull additional cars.

That’s not a pantograph it’s a trolley pole, pantograph describes the shape as well
@Ericstrains2 жыл бұрын
Actually, webster's dictionary 1st edition defined that pole as a "pantagraph" in 1828. It wasn't until the 1909 edition that the distinction was made between a trolley pole and pantograph. Scholars, however, continue to debate that distinction to this day and I am staunch believer in the original pantograph definition from 1828.
