N Scale Pushers - Segment 3 (9:26) - The N scale pusher action continues in this final segment as our coal train reaches the end of the grade. The heavy NS diesel helper power cuts off and runs back down the hill to help another train over the grade. As a special finale, we see some vintage black and white footage from the days when steam and passenger trains still ran on the line! |

N Scale Pushers
I'm a regular operator of Scott's spectacular NS layout and can report that it runs as fine as it looks. I only wish he would figure out how to edit his great sound tracks into the operating sessions!

Modeling Railroads
The N-Scale Pusher series has opened my eyes to the great modeling possible in N-scale. It also helps me realize that layouts like this are truly model railroading. Scott Teague's and other mega-layouts are modeling railroads. Most of us are modeling trains. The difference is several hundred square feet.
These videos have made me wish I could start over in N-scale. My image of N-scale is stuck in the sixties when it was truly clunky. It is now becoming the standard for modeling railroads - smooth running, a great variety of rolling stock, and reliable track.
Thanks to all who made this presentation available.

"N" Scale, I never thought it would fly !!
I can remember the first time I saw "N" gauge and thought it was just too small to really ever look like any more than a toy. Well anybody got Catchup so I can eat my words. That was a fine display of "N" Gauge at its best !! I liked all of the Pushers Videos and nice touch with the Black & White film at the end. you made a believer of me.

great video
That's some great N scale train video! I felt like I was watching real train footage on most of those shots. I'll be back to check out more.
I must say, I have never
I must say, I have never seen a model coal train that long. I now understand why guys who model the coal industry find it so appealing. Those enormous trains are indeed awesome! And the train sounds and music are amazing too. I applaud the movie crew.
Just a thought: wouldn't it be great to have sound decoders in EVERY piece of rolling stock too? Ohhh, the music we could create then!
