OBAS Di3 in action on the P&SF

My very first attempt on editing a video with iMovie.
Shot with my iPhone7 when I just had an attack of model railroading.
Just wanted to run a train, and then got the desire to shot a video.
A far cry from a good video, but hey, model railroading is supposed to be fun!
And for me living with a serious disease causing me to not have opsessions for a couple of years, and also not been able to do much on the layout, or run trains, this felt good :)

Family Party

Front End Friday Family Party.
A norwegian type Di3, former NSB (Norwegian State Railways), now private owned OBAS 3.632 joines the family in Mobest Yard, Phoenix Arizona.
.. Or, is it the american relatives who have come from far away to Halden, Norway, just under 100 miles north of the Swedish Manufactor NOHAB in Trollhättan? The very same factory that built the Norwegian Di3's.
All of them has EMD 567 diesel engines! Or at least the prototype.

With our model railroads, anything can happen :)
The OBAS engine is the first norwegian I have bought for more than years when I swapped out my norwegian rolling stock with US models.

And this is why this model was a must. The railroad in my hometown Halden is electric territory, end of the InterCity line to Oslo. The OBAS engines was kind of a sensation here in march 2005, pulling a train with paper rolls for export.
