    Still had my track out from the 2-8-8-2 so I dragged out more trains and added a side track.
    Featuring this time is a trio of Santa Fe GP9 locomotives pulling a mostly boxcar train.
    Almost every diesel trains should have more than one locomotive. Also the cars should be the same type, or perhaps a several boxcars followed by several flatcars and not one of each type of car. I did cheat a bit with the ore cars at the end as they should all be alike.
    My fancy Athearn Ready to Run caboose is bringing up the rear. Normally I prefer the ones that need some assembly because they are cheap like me.
