This video was captured on the FreeMo N-scale layout, which appeared at the 2016 World's Greatest Hobby show, in St. Paul Minnesota. This layout featured modules from Minnesota Free-mo, and Free-mo Nebraska.

This cabride covers a full roundtrip on the full mainline, including four reversing loops. Service starts at Roseville Yard, through to Mountain Loop, Middle Loup, Info Loop, and back around the flyover at Roseville yard. The layout was configured in an H-shape, with reversing loops at all four ends. This configuration allowed for continuous dog-bone style operation suitable for train shows, as well as more traditional local and regional freight operating sessions to local industries.

The event was hosted February 5-7, 2016. The N-scale layout occupied a space roughly 40'x50', and took approximately 20 minutes to make a full circuit from end to end at moderate track speeds, non-stop. In practice, the runs typically took much longer, as we were regularly negotiating through meets and sidings.

Minnesota FreeMo operates both N-scale and HO-scale divisions, and participates in several shows annually.
