Video taken by my friend Alan Shifley from the pilot of his 4-8-2 steam locomotive, hauling 15 cars around the track at Vancouver Island Model Engineers. Taken October 4, 2015.

Great video, but as a railroad aficionado for years it's my opinion that in certain portions of that run the speed was Excessive. Just sayin'... thank you

Having the camera low and close to the track always makes it look like you are running fast. This particular Loco has a digital speedometer in the tender and we rarely run faster than 7 mph. That would be 56 scale mph, which is moving along pretty good.
