My 12’-by-8’ model railroad has operational tracks and sidings for six trains of which three can be run simultaneously. I usually run one train at a time but sometimes run two just to see them pass each other in opposite directions on the outer truss bridge. In the video, New Haven Railroad 4-6-0 steam locomotive #816 (Lionel Legacy 6-82272) is pulling a passenger train trailed by 1929 heavyweight parlor-lounge car Flying Cloud (MTH set 20-4040) on the O-72 outer loop and Boston & Maine F-3 diesel #4227A (Sunset/3rd Rail) is pulling a freight train with B&M caboose C-124 (MTH 20-91064) on the O-54 middle loop. The two locomotives pass each other on the bridge at the beginning of the video with the New Haven train running at about 32 scale miles-per-hour.
