Good use of spacing the trains out and timing their runs. It can indeed be done without block wiring or DCC if you're careful and the locos are equal in speed at the same speed setting.

A certain two locos in this vid should really have had their places switched, though.

Train crews are NOT supposed to be on the cell phone! The National Transportation Safety Board will sure be investigating this.

The Fat Controller was very cross with James. "Once again, you have caused great confusion and delay."

Great idea for people who do not have time to build a permanent layout.
Clean carpet and roadbed track does the honors.

Quite some set up. Nice how that LL roadbed provides such reliable and
smooth running. I'd forgotten how much I used to enjoy Peruvian Folk
Music, I am going to have hunt some down- lovely sound track.
