That’s not even close. The Tehachapi loop is a better representation.

That’s so cool. I like how the are using modern BNSF GE locomotives and coal cars. In real life it’s 2 to 4 locomotives on a 100-110 car unit train.

I’d hate to be waiting at a railway cross for this train.

I’m pretty sure that there was more money in that video than most LeMons cars. I counted 8 GP-series locomotives that are probably on DCC ( so roughly $150 each ) and roughly 100 Norfolk Southern hopper cars ( roughly $20 each ).

Looking through some of his other videos shows an 11-engine train pulling 603 cars.

Cool video. If you ever get a chance, stop by the Tehachapi Loop in California... the track loops around and passes over itself to gain elevation. Long trains can actually pass over themselves... nothing like this video, of course, but still cool.
