Thank you! 😊

Thanks for watching! 😊

Totally agree!

Thanks for the support Frank! We are behind after getting over a household illness but are getting caught up ourselves.

Thank you for watching. 😃

Thank you Frank. There's a lot of nice vintage footage in this one.

Thanks Frank! Fortunately Jesse had just sent us those custom loads not too long ago.

Thank you for watching and commenting. 😃

Thank you. 😃

@@TwoRailfans please 👍

Fortunately, these days preservation and restoration are more common than years ago. It's too bad many were abandoned or scrapped before they could be saved.

Sad, but true.

And my great grandfather was an engineer with the Northern Pacific RR in Aberdeen, Wa

That is really neat!

Thank you! No matter what we have in our collection, my son still loves running that Thomas loco.

Thank you! This was a fun challenge.

Thank you, and welcome to our channel!

Thank you. 😃

@@TwoRailfans please 👍 Goodnight 🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃🌃

Thanks for watching Jesse. 😃

Thank you for watching!

Thank you David. It's difficult to find period footage of steam locomotives that is clear, but this was pretty good.

Thank you for watching. 😃

There are quite a few. Obviously, they couldn't all be saved, but there is definitely an appreciation these days for the steam locomotives.

Including some from this video.

Thank you for watching! 😃

Thank you. 😃

Thanks you Dwight. Some of them on the layout for the first time.

Thank you very much! 😃

Thank you! This was a fun challenge that forced me to get a few of these on the rails for the first time.

Thank you! We have not forgotten about your flatcar challenge. Just trying to get caught up. 😁

​@@TwoRailfansLooking forward to it! I also have footage from August I still need to work through 😅

Thank you! Those factories are from PTF designs and are printed on foam with the LEDs wired in. I wish I could take credit for the smoke, but that was already on there. 😃 Maybe someday we can weather them but there are so many projects to work on at the moment.

Thank you for watching!

Thank you! It didn't have a flicker when I first did it so I'm hoping I just have some dirty track or wheels. I had been sick and we didn't run trains for a while, so I probably need to do a cleaning. I guess we will know soon enough. 😎

Thank you David! 😃

Thank you Drew! We don't have a lot, but they are a diverse mix.

Thank you Norman. 😁

Thanks James. The collection is still growing. 😆

Thank you! We are enjoying that UP caboose a lot.

@@TwoRailfans that makes me happy I still have 4 so I'm not missing it to bad 😃

You are building quite the collection!

Thank you! We're running all we currently have.

@@TwoRailfans You’re welcome

Thank you Drew. He does amazing work with those. I was surprised to see someone trying to sell a commercialized version of this at a train show recently for $50+. 😮

@@TwoRailfans Oh wow. That’s insane. 😱

Thank you. 😃

Thank you! This was a fun challenge and got us to run 3 cabooses that we had not yet run on our layout. 😃

Thank you for watching Kelly! The challenges aren't to win anything or compete, just to have fun around a central theme. I honestly feel like in the model train community there is often too much time simply talking about trains and layouts instead of actually running trains, and these get people running their trains. We really enjoy participating in these and it's a great way to see what other people have in their collection. 😎

​@@TwoRailfansagreed. Rule #1 is in effect here!!!

Thank you! Our collection isn't that big but it is diverse.

Thank you John. I am still catching up on videos since getting over being sick, but I am going to go check out your layout update video. I think you have a lot of challenges to catch up on. 😃

Yes, I think you do! 😎 Thanks for watching!

@@TwoRailfans Dug 7 up and posted a short. :)

Thank you Lee. We are so far behind on these challenges but are trying to catch up. 😎

Thank you! He does great work. We have already recorded our caboose challenge video by the way and that should be up later today.

@@TwoRailfans Sounds good, I'm looking forward to it!

There’s certainly nothing wrong with the Tyco stuff in my opinion. Thank you for the tool recommendation!

Thanks David. Thomas definitely has gotten a lot of kids started in trains, including my son. I wish the purists in the model train hobby would acknowledge this.

@@TwoRailfans Yup. Too many take it too serious. Nothing wrong with making it as realistic as you can but at the end of the day were a bunch of big kids playing with toy trains😊

Exactly! There's a limit to how real you can make running trains inside a room or building, no matter how big. We are all kids playing with trains.

I thought you might notice Thomas running. 😃 We will do another steam locomotive video soon with our Pennsylvania Railroad K4.
