Cool video. I had one of those Hooker tank cars back when I was a kid in the 70's. I found another one from that era at a train show a few years ago (coincidentally, it's missing half the handrails on top too), and the Athearn one just before the pandemic stopped all train shows up here (cause for withdrawal symptoms ). That's the first time I've seen the Hooker double-ended electric. Good thing they didn't use the rotary... Keep it up. It's always a nice way to start the day.
Who woulda thunk it? Thwarted by a giant mushroom! That's when it's time to break out the rotary. Mmmmmm.... chopped mushrooms....
