Here Is The Test Video Of The Rialto Yard

Ok, This Is Just The First Test Video.

This Video Kind Of Sucks Cause When I Started The Power, The Track Was Apparently Dirty, If You Listen Carefully, You Can Hear Me Move The Loco To Get It Moving.

I Had Cleaned The Tracks But Now I Need To Make A Second Test Video.



Enjoy :-)






Here Are The New Yard Photo’s.

I Will Be Adding More Photo’s Of The Construction When They Become Available.

 

Happy Railroading
