2020_11_25 Finally we can run a train up the Helix (almost to top)
As usual we have no problems, as Al works his magic on the track.
The train was one of my oldest sets of rolling stock. Heavy as and would not roll down the grade. The 40 ft containers were all epoxy resin kits and very heavy. The train was from the 80's before RTR.
First run up the hill with this train was hauled by an Austrains T Class. After setting up the camera it failed to run the hill and ended up wheel slipping to a stand. Must have cleaned the crud of the wheels.
Anyway X32 was given the honors for the camera and went very well.
Cheers
Rod
