The Youtube video below features a 7 1/2 gauge Union Pacific Big Boy 4-8-8-4, which has surely got to be one of, if not the biggest locomotive in 7 1/2 gauge. Not only is the locomotive impressive but it is pulling a train of authentic passenger coaches and passes over a tressle bridge that has to be a good 30 feet high! Following all of this is a 0-8-0 Switcher hauling a train of scale wagons. The noise of the engine working hard and the train passing over rail joints makes this clip rather enjoyable to watch and all of this conveniently leads to the fact that Leyland SME will be hosting a Rolling Stock rally this year on 24th September, open to all types of 5 and 7 1/4 gauge rolling stock (and locomotives to pull it!). https://youtube/watch?v=XcJIuYb21BM
