N-Scale Pushers

This was great and should go along in showing what is possible in N-Scale. Sure it may be small but don't let fool you into thinking you can't reproduce the excitement of real railroading in 1/160.

I love the background sounds

And the radio chatter.  Not sure if it was just good editing or DCC Sound decoders - but permament speakers woul dbe easier in permanent lash-ups.  EIther way, a great tool and wonderful inspiration.

I loved the movie this week . I'm and HO modeler but for n scale it liked like a lot of work went into makeing that layout and movie.GREAT JOB.

Excellent !

Excellent video.  It certainly portrays the eastern coal haulers well.  The layout must be huge to run trains of that length.  I hope that future segments will describe it in some detail.  Looking forward to seeing more.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the great words about my layout and the dvd program called N-Scale Pushers.  The layout was in Great Model RailRoads 2004, N-Scale Railroading Mar-Apr, 2006. The layout is 42ft x 18ft and double decked.

Thanks,

I knew it looked familiar but I couldn't remember where I had seen it before. Good work, Scott.

I am a fellow N-Scaler with a layout under construction. I hope mine turns out as good as yours.

I'm pretty sure that I waited

I'm pretty sure that I waited for that same train in West Virginia twice this week The names were different but the coal loads were the same. The only real difference is the size other wise who would know. Great Video Scott hope to see more.

Bluefield

That was a realy nice video and the music background was also nice. When I heard mention the town of Bluefield, it brought back memorys of when I lived in Tazewell Virginia (Tazewell is about 20 miles south of Bluefield). I was born and rased up in Tazewell and watched many many coal trains go by. At nite I would lay in bed and listen to the train going past. Thanks for the movie.
