Bill, great video even if it was your first one. Can you include a Garter
Snake in the next video?
I too liked seeing the dual gauge. That is not something I would ever try
but it sure is interesting to see. Maybe your next video will have a
narrow gauge train on one track and a standard gauge on the other, with a
Garter
Snake hanging off the caboose steps.
I could not read the railroad name on the tenders. What is the railroad?

Hi Andre --
Thanks for the positive comments. I still have a lot to learn about taking
video and then getting it posted to the internet. Future videos ought to
be more attractive.
All dual gauge trackwork must be hand laid as there is no commercial
product. Even in HO, dual gauge trackwork is highly limited, and if you want
anything other than a fully dual gauge #6 turnout, you are on your own. The
rail in the video is code 100, but I go all the way down to code 55 on some
of the narrow gauge track.
My old video camera (super 8 camcorder) took those rail and wheel noises
and really made them sound good. This camera tells it like it is... Sound
will be coming to the SLE&P as DCC gets more in play. Right now, I am using a
PFM sound system for power with alligator clips to the buss lines, and the
only sound equipped loco is at the painter.
Have fun!

Very nice Bill! Love your trackwork. What code rail, and are those hand
laid switches?
By the way, the natural sounds of the train passing were VERY realistic
sounding.
