LGB and trucks

That is pretty cool. How many radios are used for that operation? Or is it a group of friends?

Thanks ,
Each vehicle had it’s own radio , except of the red diesel-locomotive , which is run via train-track-DC-power and that excavator which was operated just via a wired remote .
The Steam and yellow Diesel locomotive are R/C as well the hopper-cars with the working hatches . The gravel-tower is also controlled via R/C ( elevator bucket – motor and the discharge-slide-servo ) , the half-track is also R/C as well the rail-road-crossing with the working gates . This setup was only operated by my German buddy Klaus and myself ( including the filming ), and yes , we had a bunch of R/C transmitters in use , Lol .
This setup actually started fairly “harmless” as a BOG-A-Ram ,

just as a weekend deal . Here some more photos :

After all my other buddy’s left , Klaus and myself tinkered for a few days ( since during that weekend , non of these loading functions did exist )
and the result was a full driveway incorporating also portions of the backyard .

Very good video and combining LGB with working construction equipment topped it off.
