Unloading the pipe from the dump truck is hilarious!

While far from prototypical, the ways they load and unload trucks are mechanically pretty clever. You've got to appreciate the people who figured out all those simple but effective accessories.
Carpe Manana!

Yeah.I mean come on, that's the most funny part of the video and it's probably not meant to be.

"A lot of modellers out there who go to these train shows see broken HO stuff and go, 'This is useless' when, in reality, they can still be used for modeling whether it's as a prop on your layout or a cool project to make something old new again."

I had only 2 thoughts while watching Ben's video 1 to bad nobody ever figured out how to make it DCC yet with 8 or 10 vehicles going at the same time and 2 Walt must be tearing his hair out while drooling profusely

I can honestly say I've never seen anything quite like that in my life. A slotcar trucking layout. That's actually really cool.

DEFINITELY love the commercial. Those old vintage commercials are awesome!
I like Ben's video too. I have definitely wanted to do something like this, running through the layout, all controlled with DCC. Someday - once I get the main layout built.
Starting my Tyco and other favorites collection over again after 37 years.
