Mine only blinks No single letter

Is that a MTH rail king or premier

Looks nice

Nice layout he has 👍 great looking trains Chris

Very nice layout he has!

Very cool, Chris! Thanks for sharing this glimpse of your friend’s railroad. Bill B.

Hey Chris, looks great. Never thought about re-purposing this Rail King barns. I’ve been trying to find the house in O scale. I’ve seen the 3D printed HO version. Nobody is doing it in O scale. Maybe your influence will make it happen????

Awesome collection from subscribers you well deserve that train collection you seem like an extraordinary guy god bless you 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 and your family 🙏🏻

Very nice additions here these subscribers gave to you! That was very nice of them. Btw I also have a 259 locomotive but a 259e but in the gunmetal gray scheme and the wheels are alittle different there like darker kind ones. Btw thanks for sharing all of this!

That was a very generous gift. I hope you'll find the time to restore everything. Those complete sets are some really unique one of a kind items to have in a colletion. It's really unfortunate that the CP Alco was painted silver, considering it's a rarer version of that model of Alco's. I would restore it back to its original color. I think the shell is molded in green plastic, and silver paint is one of the easiest paints to remove. I would try different solvents. I've had good results using isopropyl alcohol or Simple Green being careful around the original graphics. I've had some lettering reacting to the solvents while others weren't affected at all. Heat stamped lettering seems less affected. To clean and condition plastic shells I use the blue Dawn dish soap with the duck on the label and scrub with a tooth brush. For tough stains I use Bon Ami powdered cleanser avoiding any printed graphics as it will remove those also. Mister Clean Magic Eraser works similar but I prefer Bon Ami on plastic as it does not contain any abrasives like Comet does and it's easier to work into crevices. I've even used it to remove water stains on my cars windshield without scratching it. Once the shells are clean and dry I use Turtle Wax plastic restorer to bring back the color intensity and luster to like new condition replenishing the plastic molecularly rendering it less brittle. However it wont remove the scratches.

Great video chris!

That is pretty wild. There's a life size one on I-270 around Rockville, MD.

That is awesome Chris, really cool , I have the 666 Marx , you got all kind of stuff 👍 very nice collection cool jr train I would not no what to say if someone did that since I have been in hobby for a few years I have met nothing but awesome folks in hobby stores and internet, it is a great hobby with great people 👍 you have a great channel Chris it’s one of my favorites my friend you make it simple to watch 👍😎

What an amazing gift you received Chris!! It’s every train lovers dream come true. Congratulations on a great train haul. I hope you consider doing videos on these beautiful trains after you do some preventative maintenance. 😃 Tom

This is awesome. There are a lot of great people in the model train community. Congratulations on your new additions Chris.

Very nice! There are a lot of great subscribers that donate to various channels that they like. Lots of great trains, that won't take too much effort to clean and get running. You could set-up a locomotive shop scene with some of those engines, or even a scrapyard scene. Great stuff, for sure. An excellent video, as always.

Absolutely amazing. I too have been very fortunate to receive MANY generous gifts from my subscribers. I do my best to bring everything back to life.

That’s our TRAIN community Chris! Congratulations! 👍

Awesome chris !

First visit to Train Station was around 1979 on a visit to Columbus. Seems they had more stock back in the day compared to my last visit in 2023. My only complaint was on the last visit no one else was in the store......but I was never even spoken to.....ODD.

Cool!

Do you know how to get to the control settings of the cab 3 app? To update and stuff.

You a******

Chris, plz do finish out this 390. railings are easy. I use a welding wire that is so close to original size. Harry sells the holders too.

Chris, My father's only train was a Lionel "O" gauge 253 & it's 3 cars. my older brother & I beat it a lot too. it was the 1930 variation with the orange stripe. a friend of mine got me back into prewar Lionel & especially Standard gauge. up until 1979, I had never even heard of Std Ga. I restored my dad's & got many others now. I starterd my own UA-cam channel showing a few of my trains. plz look it up. I show a 380 I did to make it look like a 408. have you a 380 with the added lead weight to it? I have one that I painted in Blue Comet colors, it is a "408" like one too. I am so glad you are restoring it. I have used Harry too for parts. he is nice.

Been alot better if you would tell the price before someone drives there

Been there, great store and great place to train watch…….nice town.

Been going there since I was a kid! Awesome place!

Need more explanation than just showing assembling Don’t see evidence of written directions

I grew up in Columbus and was a regular there in my late teens (I’m 56 now). I remember when one of the employees was planning and building the HO layout that is STILL in the store window! (back around 1988) That place is like a time capsule to me, like a walk back in time to my teen years. I love that it hasn’t changed a bit! Still have all the Athearn, Atlas and Roundhouse rolling stock that I bought there and got all my Kadee couplers there to convert my horn hook couplers. Bought stacks of magazines from there too.

Blue Caboose used to be just down the road

It's a great store, been shopping there for decades. I like to support the small shops. They almost always have what I'm looking for. Definitely THE best train store in central Ohio.

Very nice ! I will be making some for my new train room

V8 swapped Subarus are definitely slept on Americans forgot how powerful AWD can be

one of these days i'll get time to do this for my stuff

Whats your pond float/filter look like? We have a pond filter system and are starting to add to it. I'm looking to learn about it and get some more understanding of everything and the build out. Currently its straight through UV and Carbon/Sand filter. Need to add the alum and clorine setup and retention tanks next. I'd like to take the simplistic process of replacing the filter on the float filter int he pond but I also fear working through the priming process. We have a local guy that works on these for most the area who use them. I'd just like to take on what I can myself like filte replacement, media replacement, and so on.

Sorry for the late note, and yes it is a cool building, missed out on the first run maybe if they make it again I can get it for my layout.

Hey, what is the tunnel clearance height as the train crosses the bridge? Do you know how long it is?

Looks great Chris 👍 i got mine under my layout for rolling stock n some engines i need to build some like yours on the wall , you done a great work on them Thanks for sharing

You’ve got $100,000 worth of trains there and you can’t see your way clear to buy a couple of $20.00 saw horses to keep from cutting off your hand?

Looks really Good Chris !

Bottom Line Is this We ALL have Passionately and Love of the Hobby 👍👍👍👍.

I Am Surly There Are Different styles For Shelving.

When Building a Train Layout wouldn’t you want to Build your shelvings First?

When Havin A Large Collection of Trains You need to Build A Shelvings for your Trains I Have That Done For My Wife’s And Mine and Glad I Did that.

AWESOME project

The shelves look good Chris. You made it look easy!

Happy Fathers Day Chris! I made mine out of 3/4 plywood and ripped them on a tablesaw to 3"? I'll have to double check that measurement. I used the pro Kreg tool for mine with a 6" space between screws. These locomotives are very heavy. Also I do not try and hind the screws because I want the most meat on the screws also I have glued mine with the best wood glue you can buy. If you want have a look at the ones I built so far. I have made 4 of them so far and I plan on making 6 or 8 more. Great work on your display shelves my friend. Frank

Hi Chris. Really enjoyed it. Like the jig tool to drill hidden holes. I have the shelves routed (that's what we call it in UK) with two parallel grooves to accept the wheels from the trains. So they sit straight on rhe shelf and also I think they are a little more secure. Stuart

Hello from the UK. A very helpful and useful video thank you. I have a 1999 Premier Daylight with Auxiliary Water Tender and a Railking Y6B Mallet to do. Can I ask a few questions for guidance please? 1 What is the red U shaped fibre looking piece on the workbench that I don't think you used. 2 Are the MTH upgrade kits then universal for any PS1 Steam Engine or do I need a specific one for each of my engines? 3 Do you buy your upgrade kits from MTH direct? 4 What is the thermo grease you use please and why do you need to use it? 5 What's the purpose of the antistatic mat and is it a must? Many thanks. Much appreciated and has encouraged me to have a go. Stuart
