Joey’s Trains put out the challenge, Backup your long train. Seems easy enough. Maybe for you. Ride along with me as I try several combinations of locos and cars. #BackupYourLongTrainChallenge
Reverse operation is almost always rough, no matter what gauge you’re operating (probably problematic for the real railroads, too). And yet it’s fun in the sense that it’s a real challenge, too. I’ve been most successful when making a train up by placing the heaviest cars closest to the locomotive, and gradually lengthening the train by adding successively lighter cars to increase train length. This train makeup appears to work very well, at least on my train layout, Great video, Marx Man! 🚂
Better tell Joey we’re all in deep shit if the atm sees the conductor not riding the point on back of those trains I use Lego men on back of mine for this reason Hot glue and pop off when done Lego men fit really good in a Williams or anyone’s old trainmaster

Great video, Marx Man! 🚂
That’s what I ended up doing.
Awesome entry! It is definitely easy!
I'm glad that you successively did it.
Great job on the video! 👍
Thanks for participating, it’s not as easy as it looks. You did a fine job and your trains looked fantastic!
Very enjoyable challenge. I rarely run anything in reverse.
if you have a loco with magnatraction try that
After the 5th try, I would've been reaching for a fifth. Challenge met!
Marx guy here, in today`s environment, some might say you`re a bit back would.
