Could this be the future of model railroading?

A couple of guys try to keep pace with a West-bound BNSF intermodal that’s really flying at Daggett, Ca. They give up when they see it meet an East-bound intermodal far ahead of them. Thinking they can keep up with it they turn around and give chase, but it too leaves them in the dust.

Train run by’s in Gary, Chicago, and Joliet Amtrak, Subway, and Freight

Good sample of action on the Loop. Love the rumble of the Metra diesel as it passes. Also wonderful if you like the sound of an endless stream of intermodal cars banging over diamonds. Good closeups of the punishment that a busy diamond takes. Note how many trains have BNSF-NS power. An Amtrak train fakes-out would-be passengers by arriving several tracks away. Watch them scurry frantically to catch it. Only the people on this SIG could appreciate this vid.
