Suleski Transportation uses the most modern and high tech equipment available to ensure our ability to provide the best service to our customers.
Recently we converted an old passenger coach and equipped it with remote video monitoring equipment to check our track work. The coach was repainted for the New Hampshire Garden Railway Society of which we are members. Here is the car known as "The Mount Washington" now attached to the end of a work extra.
The car is fitted with new trucks and metal wheels for a really smooth ride. Some find it very relaxing to ride in.
The rear of the car has been modified so there are two large windows on either sign of the door. The camera is mounted to one side to get a view of the right-of-way. There is also a large antenna mounted to the roof to transmit the video signal. The handrail has been removed for better viewing. Of course some prankster in our technical department mounted some manikin legs so it looks like there are someone's feet up on the foot stool in the bottom of the frame as you watch the video. Kind of gives you the feeling you are getting someone else's perspective of the ride.
Today's train was headed up by ST NW2 #24
Here is a photo of the transmitted image on our large screen monitor
Sorry photo of a monitor is hard to do, but you get the idea.
