So, the one railroad that used turntable switchbacks that's narrow gage is the White Pass and Yukon. They had a loop at the other side of the turntable so you leave the cars in the loop and turn your engine so it was facing the correct direction of travel so the crew can spot the danger, if any danger is to be had and not have to rely on a blind guard, or a conductor who dissappears around the bend with his caboose
I love this podcast, the game is nice and i really like Railroads online but only listening to Hyce and kAN talking about trains, engenieering or anything is so relaxing and interesting by itself, i literally listen this in the background while doing something like programming or working, thanks for the video :)
I've only found 1 use for my Shay in my game. That's load it up with logs, send it off to the sawmill, go to one of my other trains and run something else and then telegraph to the sawmill in time to catch the Shay as it's finally passing by. After unloading it, do the same but towards the logging camp. That thing is slow enough that with enough steam and reg control, you can basically ghost it on your lines and be able to run something like 5 trains. You do need to have good track lay out though. Maybe a thought for you and Hyce to try. Get a Shay and a Heisler and have them do slow transporting around as you focus on doing other stuff and then catch them at their destination.
Bumpers can be placed at any node, even if something is attached on both sides. So for that part when you were unable to place that bumper, you could have laid some level 3 ballast and then put the bumper at that node. Plus, ballast will be under your bumper. I use bumpers to close off lines that are under construction. Second edit: you can also lay track after placing the bumper if you want to be precise with your placement. Just set the circle mode to 0.
39:05 Speaking of chocks, if you're stuck at a siding for half an hour, and you forget to turn off the sanders, will the sand pile up and chock the wheels?
In the UK there were the so called 'merry-go-round' trains which ran hoppers from coal mine to power station. They loaded coal from above at the mine without stopping and then unloaded it from the bottom at the power station, again without stopping.
Make a switch back track that helps you get started by sloping up like a half pipe. Then when you start to wheel slip you flick the reverser back the other direction using the hill to get back up to speed. Kinda like a pirate ship carnival ride.
Postage used to be loaded and unloaded without the train stopping at all. Postal bags basically would be hung on a hook on the side of the railroad tracks. And then a train would come by with a postal carriage that basically had a big fish net that was sent out to catch the bags as the train went by. A postal worker would then sort the mail inside the car and would then throw the mail out of the moving carriage at whatever station the male needed to go to.
43:51 I noticed that tree when you where entering the yard a few minutes earlier. I pretty much knew that that was gonna happen before either of you notice.
In Lithuania, we only have One operational Narrow Gauge Loco named Siaurukas (The name is a Diminutive word for Narrow). I had never wriden in it, but i have seen it while it sat in its shed. And it runs passengers in the summer.
Some information about Auto Train. It’s a once daily service each way between Sanford, FL and Lorton, VA, non-stop. It runs overnight and is half passenger, half freight train, the front half being accommodations for passengers like seating, bedrooms, and dining, and the rear half being Autoracks that carry the passengers’ vehicles. Danny Harmon’s channel Distant Signal has a video that cover’s the operation of assembling the train somewhere, and well, given how awful I95 can be, I’m not surprised it’s one of if not the only Successful long distance route Amtrak has.
Since we're using this to say things to Hyce.. be sure to tell him the K-37 we're standard gauge locomotives that we're converted to narrow gauge and just listen to his head explode
You forgot to make provision for the other industries you still need to link to. Love the driving test for hyce, he failed the observation part when he hit the tree. LOL
If you want questions to ask Hyce, ask him about the Crazy 8s incident. Unless you already know about it, in which case, you seem to be a man of culture.
you'd be surprised how much an average person can push/pull on a daily basis i move 3-4k lbs cars around and they have alot more rolling resistance than even the heaviest narrow gauge cars the issue is getting it moving once its gotten moving they are really easy to push around
Questions for Hyce: What is the worst thing to happen at the Museum? What is the most common failure you dealt with either at the museum or when you worked on BNSF? ALSO I actually have a buddy who was an extra in Unstoppable he played one of the officials at the near end of the movie. I said it before, but why not make the Shay your dedicated hump locomotive. It being so slow wont matter when its literally only moving cars that need put away. A good name for it would be 1-Hump-Chump, Snail, Bin It?, Failed Drug Test, or King of CR&P Hill. The Drug Test name is meant to be a mocking of who had the most pee cups in an episode, therefore they must suffer using a shay.. The last is a nod to your poop stories, maybe have it pull a Waycar that can be the hump yard crew outhouse. Name the caboose CR&P House. I'll add more names till a shay is bought.
Ok, here are also some super serial questions for you both. What was your first ever experience with steam locomotives, and what is one thing in steam locomotives that you really want to see or do in the future?
So more about the very first steam locos. October 1829 is when the rain hill trials in England took place so rain England made a railroad but instead of horses pulling wagons they make a competition. So the technology is still very new and there are not realy another places with steam trains. So the competition was to make a steam train to run on the new line and you won a 500 pounds and of the line needed new stuff or repairs your company was going to be hired. 50 company's said they would enter but only 5 trains showed up to the event. The five were Stephen's rocket, sans pera (I think that's how you spell it), novelty, and perservenc the fith was cycloid a horse on a moving platform that would turn wheels it was imitatey disqualified for not being steam powered. The trails were to take place over 5 days (might have been more) in wich the locos were tested to their limits and seen how strong they are. Perservenc and novelty broke in the 2nd days and were not repaired in time sans pera would have won if it had dent experience a burst piston wich was repaired to then having leaking pipes and so Stephen's rocket won pitting its name in history. Now something interesting is that Stephen's rocket was the forst train to have many tunes go through the boiler trains usually had 1 big tube that went through and maby wrapped around like sans pera.
Questions for Hyce: What is the accuracy of the narrow gauge engines appearance in Thomas and Friends What is your opinion on the show as a whole What is the most annoying design flaw of any narrow gauge engine
I have a question for Hyce and a comment for kAN. Hyce: I am pursuing a career as either a passenger or freight train engineer, what should I start as before I go into that field? kAN: You mentioned a question about the Santa Cruz Narrow Gauge mining town, my uncle lives in Santa Cruz.
After watching these videos for a significant length of time, I'm going to say Kan has handbrake OCD - Checks all the brakes then 2 minuets later checks them all again as if they magically changed on their own and then repeats for the entire run.
@DL541 Nice question. Is it faster to stop, move a switch, then start up again weighted in the reverse direction. Keep in mind, an empty train is still weight to stop, and start. I would like to know that answer.
So here is a question. Obviously you guys just jump from cart to cart but let's say you are pulling passenger carts. Was there a connection between the engine and the carts and if ther was, like what was the procedure? Climbing over the tender, climbing around the tender was there a walkway?
Hyce and kAN talking about the amount of cars they had last time: kAN: casually cuts down a tree. the tree kAN cut down: YEET!! kAN: Oh, there goes that tree. Hyce: *laughs* Later!!

You should ask Hyce the following:
-If his refrigerator is running
-His feelings about a narrow gauge Big Boy
-The meaning of life
I know the answer to one of those.

The answer to life the universe and everything is probably different than the answer to life the universe or everything.

It wouldn’t be realistic but it would be fun to run that kind of track.
I really like these videos, they're so entertaining and cool with all of this train trivia talk

gday mate your video are awesome thanks for filling my afternoon with train facts have a good day mate
If you want questions to ask Hyce, ask him about the Crazy 8s incident. Unless you already know about it, in which case, you seem to be a man of culture.
It's a constant joke on the channel, they watched a movie based on the event. "30 something cars left in notch 8"
Betsy, AKA One Punch Porter
Ask Hyce about that time all the trains got stuck on a mountain
when Hyce did the chuf chuf when going back forward in the ironworks another train closeby irl honked to :)
12:16 kan forgets a tree in his OCD ways
Oh my gosh the trees that just go flying I'm dying 😂😂😂
You should ask Hyce about the Lombard log haulers, basic summary is a guy in his garage smashed a climax and catipiller tracks together.
you'd be surprised how much an average person can push/pull on a daily basis i move 3-4k lbs cars around and they have alot more rolling resistance than even the heaviest narrow gauge cars the issue is getting it moving once its gotten moving they are really easy to push around

Can you please ask Hyce what happened in Kenosha, and why derailed trains smell like it?
I'm pretty sure that it was the Silverton Northern that had the turntable switchback.
Have you considered switching your locomotives at the museum to run on biodiesel like the narrow gauge trains at Disneyland?
You should buy a locomotive and name it the KANstitution.
We've got a Canadian talking about 'topics', we need to have it started off with the Bob and Doug McKenzie call
Kahn, you really need to ask hyce about the galloping goose you won't be disappointed by this oddity.

Have you seen the Jan update blog from RRO talking about coal powered trains and other updates?
ayyyyy latest update gave us automatic cranes! no more one-at-a-time clicking! I seriously hope you didn't load box cars before that update XD

How efficient is doubling and tripling the hill compared to switchbacks?

Odds of that seem low, but there are ways to download the audio as MP3, if you wanna do it yourself.
Can you ask hyce if there was ever a railroad with just like one track that connects to industries, no swicthes, shunt yarcs , just the one track
betsy is a champ even fixed she is still strong
44:00 so hyce had a brain fart

I keep seeing in Colorado bnsf and I was wondering if you have seen a different railroad company such as csx
Zeepkist idea: Make a track only made out of checkpoints. Completely Dapper-proofed.

Ok but what if you want to plant trees
hornepayne, on, ca, has one of the last indoor steam turn table its really cool i dont know if anyone know or not (it dosent work to danegrus)
And also the light ar back on the class 48 but it's not centered to the shelf
I have a question for Hyce so most steam engines run on steam cylinders but did they ever experiment with using instead
The Austria railrod is the most comfterbal of all
Oh cool
A question for hyce; do you know about the Tehachapi loop? If so, What’s the purpose?
Here's one for you what is there a tree in the middle of the track???

boiler explosions
get a hump shay and name it the 'engine of shay-me' (im sorry for the dad joke lol)
I have a question for Hyce so most steam engines run on steam cylinders but did they ever experiment with using hydraulic cylinders instead
