@@RailRide oh no ive ran this locomotive a hand full of times before making this video its just usually when i get a new train i make the video very soon after i get it and not a year after i got the new train but yeah i dont run this big boy very often since its a really expensive model
@@thegrandrailfan That was my pattern as well, most of my channel is comprised of stuff I had in storage prior to my first "permanent" place to run it, and I would put up a consist, run it around a few times, making a video of the session, and then adding the consist to my inventory records as I put it away to make room for the next train (my current setup can only accommodate one train at a time). In time it shifted to running new acquisitions like you described, with the expectation of mixing in older equipment in order to catch up on inventorying them. In recent years this tactic has also bogged down from a sharp influx of new equipment outpacing storage space and other demands on my time As a result I have a number of pricey acquisitions that _should_ have appeared in videos by now (including two Big Boys, a Challenger, Class A and an Allegheny), but are part of a three-ish year backlog of run sessions yet to take place.
