  today i decided to take a break from building stuff & do another test run. a pair of kato dash 9's have the assignment of hauling a tank train ( MDC & Atlas tank cars ) up the grade. this run takes you through the towns of No. Phoenix, So. Glendale, central Glendale (intermodal yard) No. Glendale, Peoria & over the Aqua Frea bridge ( a dry river bed). my daughter was the engineer for this run. she totally freaked out when the train hit a dead spot & came to a screeching halt.
