| | My wife, not into trains, was very impressed with the pictures of Max. I was wondering how he was doing with the crowds. He looks cool, calm and alert. His ears are standing up!! | | | |

| | Max did fine at times ,then he liked to try to pull folks shorts down. So he got chained up during food times and when he got too carried away. | |

Marty, if you remember, we had the same problem with JJ the first couple of years and he has pretty well mellowed out. However, he did have his moments where I thought he was going to have to be chained up, but Bubba got him under control. ;-) | |

| Video of the Banquet at Marty Cozad's 2008 Battery/SteamUp run. NOTE: The video was just uploaded to youtube. It may not be finished processing yet. I wanted to get it posted before leaving to teach my class at WSU. You might want to try the YouTube link first, to see if it is processed. There will be three more videos posted to this thread. Enjoy, JimC. | |

| RJD, Sorry I missed you on Friday. I was looking forward to meeting you. We all had a great time. Thanks for the compliment. As to the speedy train... maybe it is a little fast at times, BUT...... Pensey # 1361 was designed to run 80mph and the line was open.
and... Over several videos I have posted and videos others have posted, it seems that YouTube often makes the video seem to run a little faster. On the original AVI file, although the K-4 runs fast at [three] points, it doesn't seem to be as fast as when seen on YouTube Real reason... I sped the K-4 up on several occasions simply to trip the Phoenix 2k2 [automatic voltage triggered] whistle. I need to program the whistle voltage a little lower. Incidentally, on my layout, due to the grades, the whistle seems to blow at lower speeds. Steve, Your K-27 will be in a future video. All, Other videos to be completed are "night running," "HedgeApple/RioGram Diesels," and "The People & Trains at Marty's." Depending on the quantity of footage available, there might be a separate video of just the Live Steamers. JimC. . | |

| Video of Marty Cozad's 2008 Battery/SteamUp, at Saturday night run. Photography by JJ and JC. YouTube URL: I hope you enjoy. More videos of people and trains [not just mine] are coming. JimC. The K-4 is a brass sparkie. I installed a TE and Phoenix 2k2 in the tender, and an Aristo smoke unit in the smokebox. The loco and tender w/batteries weigh between 25-27lbs. | |
