for a meet with an empty reefer train.

Atlas Gold Series Dash 8s. I think Atlas did a great job with these.

Awesome! I love those Atlas Dash 8s! The sound is supurb! But why didn't you give 2 short blasts on the horn when starting up? That would have made it even better! Still awesome though.

Quite nice. Although it was kind of choppy...was it like that for everyone?

That was well done! Great work, very nice locomotives.

But, was it just my computer, or did the second train appear out of no where?[:p]

Thanks guys. Yea, it does look a little disjointed without the complete opposing train. I wanted to focus on the Dash 8s, and also not the make the video too long (and bore everybody!) so I cut most of the reefer train out.

Btw, is freevideoblog.com considered a good place to host these videos? This is all new to me so if anyone has any sites they consider better, let me know.

Only thing about freevideoblog is that some of the videos looked a little XXXish. Not sure how some parents may feel about their kids seeing some of the other stuff.

Video was very cool. The train one [8D]

I noticed that too, I'm open to any suggestions for hosting sites.
