With 45 hoppers loaded with coal trailing, it looks like this train is going to get a little assistance on the front end, as there's a fair grade not too far ahead...

Feel free to carry on with the coal theme.

The thread has stalled for nearly two days. Bump.

Don't have a water feature unfortunately, so lets try excusion trains.

A Union Pacific Excursion train powered by UP Challenger #3685 and assisted by UP SD70 #8314 crosses the grade level crossing at the west end of the layout.

More excursion trains please.
