BLI Challenger in Uphill Start - Video

OK, here it is. The Broadway Limited Challenger with at least half a mile of train, starts under load in a 2% uphill grade.

Wow, I'm impressed! The only locomotive (that I have tested a bit to see how much it can pull) of mine is my PCM Y6b. I have a Lionel HO Challenger that tracks and pulls well, but I haven't tested it to see how it compares to the Y. Lovely engines...

Very cool Ken, I also liked the tanks on the flatcars and the steel load on the bulkhead car.

Custom loads and weathering make em unique.
