"Floating " Train Progress

[rbrpguy]

Hi Ya'll! Home tasks have seriously been hindering my fun train time! Since last post, I have acquired a better power supply (USA Trains Train Power 4) and have attached and been running my two animated stock cars and the caboose. I have added a remote control to the caboose to operate the sound box, interior light and Hobo light on the back. Has been running great without incident, however like a nervous father, I never take my eyes off it! I have provided a link if you are interested, one loop around. Still in the planning stages as far as scenery and addons. I think my next step is to add my other loco with a few cars opposite this one and have them both looping at the same time. Better get eyes in the back of my head!

Very nice, Thanks for sharing. The biggest problem you will have running both locomotives is that one is usually faster and will catch up with the slower one. Definitely keep a close eye on them.  The speed of a train is also affected by the number of cars on it.  Unless you go to radio control on each locomotive, you will have the catch up problem.

I still can't get over the classy way you built the shelves.

Glad you are having fun.

Thanks much Bill. I will reach out to you and the forum when I get the other set running should I encounter the speed issue. I am certain y'all will have a solution Sure would like to see other members layouts, is there a special section to do that? Thanks!
