Model Railroad Operations is what we all are in this for. Let's run some trains. The tracks are clean and I'm testing out my old cameras/phones for the sound quality. The Alco S-2 Switching in the beginning was shot with my Sony NEX-5. I later added some supplemental audio because I turned the bell off during the switching operation. The FA2/FB2 run around was captured with my old Samsung Galaxy S III. I also added some extra sounds because The S-2 ideling was overpowering the run. 

The supplemental audio was recorded with my Blue Yeti Mic mostly for the deeper sounds and the horn and bells.

I have two continous loops on this layout. The one in todays video is the longest and stays at the higher elevations. I will be filming the second loop today which travel from hi grade to lo grade with return loops at each end. I don't have the turnouts automated yet for the reversing so I have to do that by hand, or address, from Digitrax controller. I need toput a sensing circuit in each loop to avoid the manual throwing of the turnouts.
