Thank you for watching and nice comment.

 

Thanks for sharing Peter, you have a great scenic railway and I do like your pruned boxwood 'tree's' they are very realistic. The BR78 is one of Aster's great early steamers, I have the French 232TC version, and that Accucraft K4 Pacific certainly has a great stack noise. The plausibility of Canadian National testing one is a good idea especially as it suits the rolling stock to make a great train.
Do you ever run live steam on the 'upper' part of your track? I imagine the gradient to get up there might be steep and I can't make out the track plan of the upper section so is it also a continuous circuit or just a branch line?

Yes Russel I run trains on the upper track and they include live steam and electric units.
It is designed mostly for smaller Narrow Gauge engines but the following video shows the
running of a live steam Shay on the 2% grades. There is an interchange track to allow trains to
go from the lower track to the upper track and I use that mostly to exchange rolling stock when needed.
Some of you may recognize some of the familiar faces in this older video....
Enjoy, Peter.
