    Thank you for taking your time to make this video. I really appreciate seeing how this works. I hate to be "that guy" but wanted to say that your background music, although very nice, was overwhelming you a tad. Made it hard to hear ya.

    Without a doubt this is the best video that I have ever viewed concerning speed matching. Last December I wasted an entire day trying to speed match locos, five hours later they were still a mess. Now I can easily match two or three locos in roughly 30 mins. Life is easier now.

    I was wondering what command controller do you use for your layout?

    Thanks for this helpful video. Just starting to use JMRI and this is a great way to learn the art of "Speed Matching".

    I think I've followed your instructions precisely, but after I click on "Write changes on sheet", absolutely nothing happens. I mean, the diesels continue to run at the same very high speeds as they did before I changed the speed settings on the speed table. JMRI is making me crazy. …Roy
