I love seeing your Tyco in action. Goes to show that a guy can have big time model railroading in a small space, with Tyco, no less. Loved the shot of the Burlington box car disappearing into the vintage tunnel, and struggling to discharge its boxes. The boys in charge of unloading looked like they needed to lay off the Sanka! You really pulled that off well, all with pure Tyco.
May I add my own little vid of doing switching with vintage Tyco? I tend to use motive power other than Tyco, but horn hook all the way, baby!!

Thanks Chops - I appreciate it! Yes, I've found that, much like other Tyco items, the Operating Box Car doesn't quite work all the time. Just needed a little help from the engineer (yours truly.)
I remember that video! That GP20 did a nice job switching box cars in the yard.
