55 feet of Freight train.

30 cars including caboose. One USA Trains GP7 with Airwire control had no problem pulling it. I was out playing last night when I took this picture.

Good lookin’ string there. Thanks for sharing.

I love long trains , short ones too for that matter . Are those hi-cube box cars I see in the consist ?

I had 18 running at Christmas on a 21X20 indoor with one GP9, And it looks like 3 high cube’s the silver end strip gives them away.

Dave STILL no layout

Thanks guys,

Mike,

Yes those are 3 high cubes…60 footers…made from kits by Burl Rice.

Thanks, I’ve used 3/4" plywood doubled up and painted a ton. Holding up well so far.
