Very nice! I particularly enjoyed the hand powered railtruck.

It is enough that Jesus died and that he died for me.

Second post here, usually I stick to the Model Railroader and TRAINS forums...

The Waushakum Live Steamers club is located in Holliston, MA, and operates both a 3-1/2 and 4-3/4 duel-gauge elevated "high line" and a 7-1/4 "ground line."  The club has a really nice track (layout?) which stretches into the woods and can support quite a few trains. I attended their May 17th open house and filmed a lot (just under 3 hours) of the action and edited it into 9 minutes, which I though I'd share here.
