October 5/7, 2024 Running Days
Lots of trains running on the Cascade Union Railway over the NSW Labour Day long weekend. We were running on both the Saturday and Monday of the weekend.
Saturday saw almost a full day of North American trains, with a very brief visit of an Australian train and a very special visit from Thomas.
Monday saw a much more variety of trains, with representations from Britain and Japan as well as the usual North American representatives.

What a day. Lots of trains running over the Cascade Union Railway today, but was only able to catch some of them. A real mix of freight and passenger, as well as a mix of prototypes with trains from Australia, Japan, Britain and Italy, and, of course, North America. We also have a glimpse of a train on our Widgeree layout. Music: My Train's A Comin' - Unicorn Heads from the TH-cam Audio Library.

A real mix of trains running today. We have steam, early diesel, modern diesel, mainly American, but with some British and even a couple of diesels painted for an Australian iron ore hauler earning their keep running over the Cascade Union. Today's video is a little different from some of the others produced this year, just stayed at mainly one location on the layout and filmed what was passing...

Today's running on the Cascade Union Railway started with a couple of steam powered trains, but these were soon replaced with some Japanese high speed trains.

An interesting day on the Cascade Union Railway. At the start, it seems that Union Pacific has taken over the railway, running lots of big power. Eventually, we do see some other power, including some from Japan. Keep watching until the end, as we also had a pre-production model of the new ready to run XPT from Gopher Models courtesy of Buckambool Models. Chapters: 0:00 Opening 0:10 UP power 4:...

Thanks 👍
Wonderful layout, really nice run bys. Thanks for sharing. Dave
Many thanks!
wow - what a gigantic N guage layout - apreciate all the hard work that has gone into making that ! it looks amazing !!
Thanks. We haven't finished the layout - still another level to build.
very nice trains and layout! :)
Thank you very much!
At least somebody captured Stu’s train in all its glory.
And not once but twice, with some added cars for the second time.
Good work Eric. That lead weight did a lot for picture stability.
Thanks, Pat. Yes it does.
Well done.
Thanks.
Amazing layout, thanks for sharing.💯
Glad you liked it.
Very nice train. Great job on breaking a new record. How many coal cars or wagons were used for this train
121 coal hoppers, 1 caboose and 12 locomotives pulling the lot.
Nice. 12 locos!!! I only used 6!!!
Pat, you need to talk to the owner of the CP units as to why he felt that he needed 9 units, although it could be because they were mainly 4 axle units. For the benefit of non-club viewers, Pat was part of the team that held the previous record.
@@SydneyNScaleModelRailway ah yes, I know who you mean. All good fun. :)
Wow, are all locos powered as DCC consist or some dummies? I can't even get 2 locos to consist smoothly.
Yes, all the locos are powered. The 3 UP locos are all Kato and were pretty well speed matched out of the box. The CP locos have all been speed matched. We actually had the CP locos under one control and the UP locos under a separate control with the two engineers coordinating to ensure they were matching on speed.
Awesome layout. The scenery is great. A Driver's Cab View Video would be great! How many operators does the layout cater for on the main line?
Thanks. We have had up to 11 trains running on the mainline, and still had room for more. We need to find someone who has a suitable camera for a driver's cab view. Would love to do one, but need to get the camera.
A Hawkeye Firefly Micro Action Camera HD 1080P should do the trick ~@@SydneyNScaleModelRailway
