Great Layout video Scott! Good work on building that layout featuring vintage trains.

Last Thursday I received the new MTH MP15 in BC Hydro yellow and red paint. All day Friday I was able to take a really old Lionel switcher engine that did not run, removed the motor and repainted it to match the paint colors of the BCH MP15. Also put together and painted up a Resin Caboose kit to match. Got it done late Friday night a quick one day build/ paint (easy with Tamiya quick dry spray paints). On Saturday our Canadian Toy Train Association club had a members day at the West Coast Railway Heritage Park. I set up a track in the parking lot and ran the club produced new BCH MP15 with my just painted Lionel dummy engine and caboose and a string of BC Hydro and BC Electric (the name before it was renamed to BCH) freight cars. Nearly all of these freight cars were custom runs for the CTTA club; https://www.canadiantoytrains.org/canada-club-cars/

Here are some photos from our visit to the park with a BC Rail RDC ride to explore the restoration shops. Note the BC Electric (ex BCH) Steeple Cab Electric engine almost complete. Click on photo for a larger view.
