I was able to extort a concession from the indigents squatting on the land for the spur line to continue with a right hand turn up the hill and around the back of the propane tank. Passengers will be forbidden to smoke in this high danger area. Long term plans are for the spur line to go all the way around the house.
Cannonball really does superb quality work. I'm happy to do business with them as everything they have sent me has surpassed my expectations. This is the flat car I also got from them. It has the same operating couplers...
They'll just have cheap split keyrings. Just found out today that the pedal powered railbike is done and will be shipped soon! I'll post pics and video when it gets here.
That run starts out level and goes up to a 7% grade. It has enough traction to make it up alone, but not enough to pull or push the flat car along with it.
