Hey Cody AutoFlood II coal hopper looks cool and how is your Model Train layout coming in your basement at home??

Hey Cody,

Great to see the new products coming out. Keep the reviews coming! Any progress on planning your home layout? It’s been a while since any updates.

Greetings FROM MASSACHUSETTS!!!
Great show, Cody!
Just wanted to let you know of a way to make a realistic coal load using black sandblasting residue. I cut a piece of basswood to fit inside the hopper car, then pour the sandblasting residue on top. After a few sprays with spray adhesive, and the fully loaded car is ready to roll. Keep up the good work!

As always an informative episode. Great ideas for layout planning. Nice tie also.

Cody, you’re starting to approach the status of MRM greats like Odegard, Hediger, Armstrong, and Kelly. We, (readers and video watchers) appreciate your professional dedication to this hobby. The humor is also appreciated.

Thanks…Mike…

Nice video. Does anyone know if there is any way to change the quality of the video? For some reason, mine is always below 360 pixels, and I was wondering if there is a way to change that.

Thanks,
Alexander

Hey Cody,
I have a clear numberboard that needs to be black with white numbers, like the Union Pacific.

MR would not be M-R without C-O-D-Y. As always, a pleasure to watch.

Cody’s Office is right up there with the monthly offerings from Hediger, Sperandeo, Kawala, Otte and Popp: as an MR reader since 1963, I find these consistently the most interesting & valuable insights, month after month.

I enjoy watching Cody’s Office, it would be even better if you had it twice a month.

I would like to know how you got the boxcar down the hill without derailing, gravity would cause it to accelerate to the point that it would derail in a curve or derail when it hit the end of the train. So how did you get the boxcar to not derail?

Hey guys… How about a video on simple locomotive maintenance? I have a number of old Athearn diesels that run fine and I want to keep it that way. Tips on lubricating fluids

Nice Cody, Tie. You need to keep him around; he might be useful.
