Here's a bit of a mini-ops session I filmed on the Mudhens narrow gauge club layout at the RPM show.  This is one of the nicest HOn3 layouts I've seen.  While I was filming the clubs, I came upon this guy working a switching job for the old mine on this section of the layout.

Not exactly sure what was causing the locomotive to hop like it was. I suspect it was something out of alignment in the siderods and/or gearing, but it wasn't derailed.  I can't be positive, but I'm thinking it was a brass unit.  HOn3 steamers like these commonly are.  I'm not aware of any plastic models of narrow gauge units like this that were ever offered either, but like I said, I'm not sure since I don't keep up with what's out there for narrow gauge.  But with the amount of different power on this layout, I can't imagine them not being brass.

Anyway, this concludes my videos from the RPM show, hope yo all enjoyed them.  Next week I start a new series which is looking to be a three part set filmed at my HO club, over in Odessa, MO.  Filmed a switching job a few weeks ago and it ended up being 61 clips long, so there's no way it's going to be one video.

I'm also not sure what I'll be doing for Wednesday's video right now.  Would like to go trackside today for some railfanning, but it's going to be oppressively hot and humid today, so as it stands right now, it'll be more from the archives.

That's it for now, thanks for watching!
