Seeing it next to the other mains is what has been bugging me too. On the other hand, on it's own, I think it's spot-on fantastic for rockin rollin track. Neat video.
That bi-level passenger car reminds me of sleeping in the upper berth of the upper level and thinking, as we rounded a curve, I'm just floating out in space here, well over the balast boundary! And that was on well maintained trackage.
Definately limit the speed, but you have managed to avoid what even in HO many folks have trouble with, vibrating rolling stock. Swaying and rocking is a smooth motion. Seeing a car shudder, for me, just destroys the illusion of mass and weight. You nailed the smooth rocking, somehow. Nicely done.
