During Mill Creek Central Railroad's 25th anniversary celebration (August 2024) a 50/50 raffle was held. Rather than traditional tickets, participants wrote their name on a popsicle stick and placed it along the track where they thought a gondola would come to a stop after being released down the hill from Barney Yard. Sorry about the microphone in the top of the screen. I did not notice it was...

Excellent presentation Matt love the sound of the steam whistles 👍😎😊
Those might be some of the best sounding whistles in the hobby!
@@mattkinnard6899 👍😊
I've wondered what happened to NEOLS after I moved out of the Akron area due to being laid off in the summer of '92. We used to visit the tracks in Copley every summer. My daughter loved riding the trains and I have the photos to prove it! Your run is much longer than that in Copley and I see a lot more track. I'm glad to hear that NEOLS was able to setup at a new location and keep growing.
What an outstanding railroad. I really enjoyed the ride along Matt.
What's the length of D&RGW L-131 2-8-8-2, SP SP-2 4-10-2, NP Z-5 2-8-8-4 steam locomotives in 7.5" gauge.
Matt you are definitely a master craftsman. I really enjoyed all three videos of your conversion. Have a great day.
I really appreciate your compliment! Thank you! Anything worth doing is worth doing right.
Man that is amazing
I agree!
Nice
Indeed
That Looks Like A Good Ride.
It was! Operating is fun and all, but it sure is nice to sit back and not be responsible 🤣
I Wouldn’t Mind Spending a Weekend Here.
The railroad and area in general is very pretty with plenty to do!
Awesome looking layout! That passenger train is on point, with two locomotives and all those heavyweights ❤
It sure is a one of a kind setup. Quite possibly the nicest passenger set in the hobby.
Real steam power? Wow.
Yes, coal fired.
Great
I am glad to hear that you appreciate them! It makes it worth the bother to produce them.
Matt, what a great ride along. I really enjoy all your videos. Have a great day my friend.
I am glad that you enjoy the videos! It makes it worth the bother to produce them.
this is awesome! Pappy sent me :)
Thanks for taking the time to check it out!
Thanks for sharing this with us Matt, thats a pretty big layout. And a super long train.. couldn't believe how fast it was going.. a couple of cool bridges.. nice job..
Your welcome! The track work their is very impressive. 1.5 days of running and I did not derail once. That really says a lot.
Thank You. Amazing layout and so enjoyed being able to see it with your effort!!
I am glad you enjoyed the ride along!
Thanks for the ride.
Thanks for taking the time to check it out!
Where's the rest from the woods?
It's all there.
@@mattkinnard6899 Ok, I thought there were a few more shots in the woods.
Train Mountain in Ohio?
Wow! That's a long train! And fast!
Indeed! The track is very smooth and level there, allowing fast running.
Imagine someone taking an easily transportable train and visiting every track in US and sharing on You Tube! Of course, retired.
A remarkable line.
Is this a club or private? Where?
It is a private track.
A cross country experience, easy maintenance.
expansive
Good idea to introduce to new members....
Great video,Matt. Pappy of Trigogglin sent me to your channel. Just subscribed. Have a great day.
@@DruSteel69 thanks for checking it out! Much appreciated!
Excellent job! Well done Sir!
Thank you! Cheers!
Another reason they were made out of aluminum is because they find out that with the heat from the lights and tubes/amp all day long some of the wood cabinets were having warping issues, also I see that you have the remote unit on the left of the amplifier(rare) that unit allow you to have a remote controller ,(you can remove that and the amp will still operate)so with ur machine u can have a 20 selector panel controller in another room and remotely select a song and operate the machine.like the ones in dinner's tables were u drop a coin in)really nice machine and good restoration.
Thanks for the info, I am glad you appreciated the video!
Great stuff Matt, Dave sent me!
Thank you for taking the time to check it out! More coming soon.
Awesome job, Matt. Love the trains!
Thanks!
Excellent you got the coolest toys 😎👍😊
It's a lot of work but we have some fun too!
Very cool indeed… Thanks for the tip 👍🏼
No problem 👍
Awesome video and enjoyed watching these type trains. Have a great rest of your evening.(Steve)
Thank you for your support Steve!
@@mattkinnard6899 Your very welcome.
That was pretty cool... Thanks for the share !!
Thank you for your support! An even better video (in my opinion) from the Blueberry RR now live!
Awesome what a great ride Matt 👍😊❤
Thank you for your support Dave!
The new signal system is amazing
It is nice. Takes some getting used to. Normally a dark signal means a signal malfunction. At NEOLS the signals are battery operated so a dark signal means an empty block.
Thanks for the ride along.
You're welcome! First video from the Blueberry Railroad is now live!
Great video and thanks for sharing. Dave
Your welcome!
Great video Matt, thanks for posting our club!
Thanks for having us! Expect a ride along video out Thursday!
Excellent video Matt. Thank you for sharing 👍😊
My pleasure!
Very cool video and enjoyed watching. Have a great rest of your evening.(Steve)
Thanks Steve! Expect a video of a lap around the track later this week!
@@mattkinnard6899 you're very welcome and very cool for sure.
How long is a 2-8-8-2, 2-8-8-4 steam locomotive in 7.5"gauge. What gauge is this track.
7.5
one eighth of whatever the full scale dimension is...
A run-by or two would be nice, to see what we're riding behind. That's the star of the show, after all!
The next video out will satisfy that. It's difficult to run the engine and do decent video work at the same time.
Magnificent catches onboard the the cab, showing the landscapes, it was amazing. Thumbs up. Hearing that amazing puffing and chufing sound and see the trees while almost dark is absolutely crazy. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, i just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
Thank you for those very kind words! The video is impressive, but it doesn't really capture just how loud and powerful that locomotive is. I am glad you enjoyed the video!
Dave sent me. Awesome Ride!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!
That was sweet! I love that the engines really get a workout running that railroad. Also, that some guys aren't afraid to tack on a "train" and work their engines. What were all of the 2-liter water bottles for? BTW...another return viewer from Dave Cole ccrx6700. 🤠👍
It is cool to see a locomotive pull a full train. You don't see that a lot in the hobby because of the cost of building, or the amount of trailer space required for transport between tracks. The train consisted of rolling stock owned by three different members at Mill Creek Central. The bottles along the track are filled with water for fire prevention.
@@mattkinnard6899 OK, I sort of thought water for fires. It's nice to have others sharing cars to make these trains.
Hey Matt, popping in from Dave's channel (ccrx 6700). LOVE the video! What an awesome train! 😎
Thanks for taking the time to check it out. There are similar videos on my channel, and more coming in the future!
The locomotive blocked the view of the track ahead. The GoPro should have been mounted in front of the locomotive to provide an unobstructed view of the track ahead.
I hear you. The intention of this video was for an engineer point of view. Back in the day the engineers couldn't see much around the boiler. I have other videos on the channel that offer different perspectives.
Wow bloody hell yeah thanks Dave I really appreciate that you sent me here surprised how fantastic that loco is and powerful too as well as the Driver yep grouse video 👍🕺
Thanks for taking the time to check it out!
