This fast paced video shows my old Mantua locomotive picking up a couple flat car loads of logs and delivering them to the mill. No fooling around on my railroad!

The real one would move much slower but follow the same sequence!

This video was taken before completing several updates on the layout, however many key features are the same.

Dave, my only suggestion is to slow down. This will look more realistic and also add time to the distances the trains must travel. Trains would also go much slower in reverse than forward. The scenery and buildings on your layout are very well done!
