G-Scale SP & ATSF Long Freights 08/04/24
Running my USA Trains SP GP9's, Bachmann ATSF C44-9W's, and LGB P42DC's in the morning before the summer heat gets too unbearable on my g-scale layout, the Southern California Western Railroad. Got out the long 30-car reefer block and figured I'd run different eras from the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe, and Amtrak.

UP 4014 Big Boy 4-8-8-4 leads an excursion consist over Donner Pass. First half is from Boca, CA to Mogul, NV. Second half features it on static display at Roseville. The crazy amount of traffic and sheer amount of crowds made it very difficult to get a lot of good, unobstructed shots - I tried my best lol.

I thought it was cleared to run without diesel backup?
Wood would be an ideal candidate for fuel when the drought ends.
The mallet at 3:45 looks like Ken Schroeder's locomotive
looks like it was a great meet
I rode that in the 60s.
Great video - like!
Whay an amazing train ride! Am pitting this on my bucket list!
Shhhhh 👆
I love to try that train ride 🚂
Beautiful train ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Grew up in Rancho, been watching since they started laying the first track. I have always admired the trains and their builders. There is just something about iron and steam.
Wonder how the steaming characteristics are with coal compared to the oil conversion?
Way more efficient and cleaner. No more ash pan to dump out. Less carbon being emitted. Only real dirty part is punching the flues, as you have to get up in the smokebox Oil really future proofs steam.
Surprisingly no difference
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I wanna see more of the Amtrak
The shot at Pinkerton looked fantastic
❤ 𝗡𝗶𝗰𝗲 ❤️
❤ 𝘕𝘪𝘤𝘦 ❤️
Prince Kuhio has the puffing sound of a galloping horse: a rather pleasing sound at that.
3:47 mark is ME…. Phil and Fran from VIME.
Very start is Bob and his wife Dot from VIME
2:29 mark is Cliff from VIME
There at "20 Years Ago" the F45 and FP45 are still some of my favorite locomotive body designs. They look good. I also enjoy that their chisel-nose front end brings to mind the bows of the Navy ships Dad was on. While I do like various big powerful locomotives my heart is with the small ones, be they steam, electric, diesel, whatever their gauge may be.
Love the little 0-4-0! Does that 4-10-2 actually have 3 cylinders?
So the tracks of different height are not connected?
No, the 7 loops are not connected. Each loop is independently controlled by its own transformer and has no crossovers or connecting tracks to change levels or loops.
Very nice. Thanks for sharing
A wonderful sight to see on a Monday morning. Thank you for posting the video.
Timing sounds like a horse with a giddy up. So far so good, hope to see it running like clockwork soon.
1993-2001.
Farewell Charley ❤.
2:34 that is a very unique one, very nice.
I admire everyone’s machining and fabrication skills. I wish I had the ability to do that!
Anyone can do it if you have the will to do it and set aside the time to learn/gradually build up a shop with tools. Ten years ago I *never* would've thought I'd be able to become a train builder - now I build entire locomotives and cars from scratch.
I think the GS-4 was getting lifted up because it probably derailed
Beautiful sisters! 🤩
Sacramento valle y me gusto mucho el video
ฉันชอบรถไฟ White Pass มาก ฉันเคยวางแผนว่าจะทำอะไรที่คล้ายกันกับเลย์เอาต์ G Scale ของฉัน รถไฟรางแคบเป็นสิ่งที่น่าสนใจสำหรับฉันเสมอมา และฉันวางแผนที่จะใช้รถไฟแบบผสมแบบนี้สักสองสามขบวนในครั้งต่อไปที่ฉันนำอุปกรณ์ LGB ของฉันออกมา ฉันมีโมเดล White Pass #110 ซึ่งแทบจะใหม่เอี่ยมเมื่อฉันไปรับมันมาเมื่อคริสต์มาสที่แล้ว และนอกเหนือจากการต้องบำรุงรักษาตามปกติแล้ว มันก็เป็นหัวรถจักรที่ยอดเยี่ยมมาจนถึงตอนนี้.
That GP9 with all the rolling stock was awesome. The shay was neat! Hagan community park?
Yep, SVLS is located at Hagan Community Park in Rancho Cordova, CA.
Who did the customer paint job
Nice 👍
That’s me :)))
Where did you get the decals for the 40th anniversary custom paint job?
I made them myself using Photoshop and a vinyl cutter. I've made my own graphics in-house for the past 5 years.
Steam, steel, and smiles!
Crane :>
Does that 4-10-2 actually have 3 working cylinders?
was that a gs4 or a gs5 in the beginning?
That’s my father’s engine. It is a GS4.

There HAS to be a train video game where you're linking up routes and shipping stuff around, but it's all in a big park with toy trains, and dudes are riding the trains around like in this video.
Derail Valley is about as close of a game to what you are looking for
One day I'll build one of those steam locomotives.
A worthy goal - may it happen!
Love what appears to be a dual Mars light between the number boards. It's June 2024 and MTH is due to release the 108 in O gauge any day now.
The guy in the audience said it best ... Wow! Wow! Wow!
