As promised for this weekend I broke out all my Athearn, MDC/Roundhouse, Bev-Bel, Rail Runner, and Accurail grain hoppers. For the locomotives I selected my Bachmann Spectrum Reading SD-45’s. Number 7602 was acquired over the summer and number 7603 is the oldest running locomotive I have. It is almost 22 years old and the first locomotive I purchased when I got serious about model railroading.
This the longest train I have run this year. It is 16 cars long. The locos handled it with ease.
