Agreed. Great to see it finished and operating. However, I was waiting for a joke at the end of the video, such as it being pushed along by an Atlas 4-4-0, a @randgust Climax or something equally anachronistic or physically impossible in the real world. :D

yes, awesome  plus elebenty hundred
have you considered adding some sort of placard/banner to the load?
seems like a lot of the massive oversize moves have signage for the rigging company or manufacturer

Well, given the topography of the modules I've been building, this is entirely possible.

Layout I operate on models this but in B&O and PC days,

Thanks everyone! I have thought of adding a load on the banner, I am going to try printing some on a plastic bag to get a realistic look. I’ll let everyone know if it works.

How about putting it over a #4 crossover . Actually I have a shot someplace that places the load perpendicular to the tracks with the lead truck array on one track , and the a$$ end array on a parallel track . Wish somebody would do a WCX 101 , that would fit my era . Are you intending to do any gag loads for it ?

My crossovers are all #10s. I don’t think I’ll me making any stress test maneuvers with it.

I keep my layout pretty prototypical, so no, there will be no gag loads. I’ll leave that up to the next owner.

Good for you!  Nice to see someone with common sense for a change.
