My new German Steam train

[Motley]

I just got me a new German Steam train. Its a Roco BR10. And 6 Trix passenger cars. My first Euro model.

The BR10 is fantastic. It runs like a swiss watch, very smooth. And it sounds great. Detail and paint is also great. And the LED lighting has chassis lights the light up the wheels. Very cool stuff.

And the most important thing. Is it smokes out of the cylinders!!!

I shot a video of it on my layout. And a few pics too.

when I had money I thought about getting a few of the European heavy freight type locos, but then Oriental came out with those Powerhouse 2-8-8-2's so I got 8 of those instead.

Thanks guys, Ya the whistle is cool sounding. I should have blew the whistle earlier in the video though.

The story on this, is the Golden Railraid Museum restored the BR10 and is now providing excursion passenger trips from Golden to Glennwood Springs Colo.
