It's a lovely video that's being quickly buried by the algorithm, and more people should see this incredible layout in which all the rolling stock has been custom painted by me over the last 15 years!

My (Serious AF) pitch for a BNSF steam program:
Restore CB&Q 4000 "AEOLUS" and reshroud her with the stainless fluting. The rest of the locomotive exists and is complete. It'd be a high effort-high reward restoration that'd put a 4-6-4 back on the rails again.

One of the worst things about the 21st century from 1/1/2000 forward is that we got SO OBSESSED with (post) apocalyptic dystopias for the last 25 years, & failed to imagine possible, brighter futures.
All the zombie, disaster, gritty reboots, cautionary tales (black mirror et al) were mega hits

Curl up today and watch one of my favorite layout tour videos I've ever made: Visiting the Vasona Branch!
This route is canonically part of the ALTA, so I ran over it with 4-4-0 #2015.
