Enjoy!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all! Thank you for a great year! The song at the end of this video can be found here: hyperfollow.com/kyleraines
That might fit under the tree if it's in z-scale
Great looking
This hands down is one of Lionel’s best Christmas locomotives
Besides their newest holiday 4-4-0 which I proudly own
It is always fun to see what train set you pick out to run. I appreciate your enthusiasm that you bring to the videos. Thank you. As a child in the late 1950s my mom and would ride a train from a station near Chicago to a flag stop in north east Kansas. We rode on Santa Fe and Rock Island. Seeing the passenger trains on your layout brings those memories back.
Very nicely done Chris!!
Love the coordination of the video scenes with the music, particularly at the end!!
Hope you had a great Christmas and would like to wish you nothing but the best in 2024!!
What a neat train set Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Chris and the RBP family
I agree with you, a beautiful set indeed.. Happy New Year
Very cool set, thank you for sharing this with us.
Great video. Happy Holidays 🎄🚂
The French Horn used as the lead locomotive’s horn is the best! I hope Lionel uses that with future projects!
In my opinion, I can't stand it when Lionel has all of those Christmas sound effects. The Polar Express didn't have them, so why do these need to? I'd prefer having normal announcements, a normal bell, and a normal horn.
Very cool set, looks great running with the other Christmas sets. I love colors, the silver with green and red, really pops. Great video and have Merry Christmas Chris!
Very nice. Sets like this are always fun to run. The paint scheme and detail here is pretty cool The normally goofy crew talk actually fits in quite nicely on this type fantasy set. Have a great Christmas and a fine New Year!
Awesome set Chris! So glad I got one as well!! Merry Christmas 🎅🏻 and a Happy New Year 🎉 to you and your family! Looking forward to more great videos in 2024!!!
merry Christmas, Great video!
Love your channel thanks for everything you do!!!
Thank you for your support!
That is an awesome set. Huge!
Wow, what an amazing set!
Love it a lot! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ready for all NYC Steam Locomotives.
Ah yes, that would be fun!
Cool stuff thanks for sharing 👍
I didn't even think about running it around a tree! 😂
Magnificient set, Chris. Great way to finish out the year! Looking forward to more fun in 2024. Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Very nice train set. Will be a collector item.merry xmas to you and your family.😊
Great video Chris! The Sleigh Bell Limited is pretty awesome especially with its paint scheme and unique sounds. And Kyle’s Awaken the Bells is incredible. He’d give TSO a run for their money. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family! Cheers to a healthy 2024 🎉
Love this train, great the sounds
Love it! Happy New Year to you! I love your channel. You have evolved into an awesome on-screen Train Hobby Personality and always make me laugh with your Funny Humor. Thanks for all you do for this Hobby and your Subscribers.
Thank you for watching and for all of your support! I am working on some new videos and hope to get them posted soon. Can't believe it is February already!
Merry Christmas and Happy / Prosperous New Year, greetings from South Africa!
Merry Christmas to you!
Love all those Christmas trains!
Nice I just got a Pennsylvania B6 shunter engine today it’s nice but I love this train it just really stands out on your wonderful layout nice video and merry Christmas.
This is beautiful!
Thank you for your vids. Your enthusiasm is fucking outstanding lad. Gday n Merry Xmas from the land down under
Cool set Chris!!!!
Awesome outro song!
Great video Chris. That set is huge, but it looks nice.
Very nice set. Also really digging the Street Fighter Christmas music at the end.
Well Done as Always Chris.!👍Merry Christmas.!🎄
Thank you and Merry Christmas!
Yuletide is a funny situation, hahaha
Merry Christmas Chris
Love love love!
Yuel always have fun with this train yuel always have a smile on your face telling this story That train is so big if I ran it on my layout the passengers could board at the front and walk to there destination and exit the rear great video 🚂🌲👍😃
I had my doubts but you were right, that is a really cool set. The sounds for the engine and diner car are really unique, glad Lionel is changing it up a little.
Chris you do a great job every video Merry Christmas to you and your family
Thank you and Merry Christmas to you!
That is a vertified awsome train
Agreed
Well, now, Chris, if the the person lettering the train had been from the South he might have put Yu-all Tide instead, that could work, sort of.
It Ya'll no yu-al
What an awesome looking set Chris! One of the best parts about seeing this set listed on Facebook, was all the "rivet counters" having an absolute meltdown because "it wasn't prototypical", lol!
These “what-if” sets tend to be big conversation starters! 😂
Great video and review, Chris. Like some other commentors, I also wouldn't call it the train set of the year because of its limited theme appeal, but impressive? No doubt. I would imagine the misspelling of 'Yuletide' will make it appealing to collectors, especially if Lionel corrects the mistake. Thanks for the season passenger train run. Great to see all travelling around your layout at once. And thanks for including Kyle's Holiday 'Bells' jam. Sets a really contemporary tone. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and the whole family.
Very steller set RPB Love it I agree I think it will be highly popular train for years and who knows the spelling mistake might make it worth more lol Merry Christmas to you and your Family and Happy New Year Many blessings in the New Year for your family as well thanx alot for your fabulous last video of the year thanx
Thank you for all of your support and Merry Christmas to you and yours!
YES CHRIS THE HOLIDAYS ARE HERE ;-) HARD TO BELIEVE WHICH REMINDS ME HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND THANK YOU IN ADVANCE FOR BEING SUCH AN INSPIRATION TO US ALL GOD BLESS NICE CHRISTMAS TRAIN YES YOU DEFINETLY NEED A BIGGER CHRISTMAS TREE ;-)
The way that those engines sound is like listening to a Viking holiday special. I wonder if the elf’s picked that type of theme for the set? Great video Chris, happy holidays to you and your family
Merry Christmas Chris to you and your family...Kudos to your smart little daughter for noticing that misspelled word. Yes i think this is the train of the year.
Merry Christmas James!
The music in this episode was awesome!
Merry Christmas RBP 🎄🎅🚂🚂🚂
Merry Christmas!
Nice
Chris thats a very nice set the elf dialog was fun to hear 😂 i made two christmas train vids under my tree and i dont have a layout right now but hopefully someday
That’s truly one beautiful set Chris (even with the mis-spelling). Too big for my layout but at least it can be enjoyed watching it run on yours! It would be nice if Lionel would release a similar set with smaller engines and cars.
I love it ! Is it the best god it’s hard to say there are soooo many nice sets , the Acela Polar Express is very nice also.
Love your Videos so nice Great from Germany Thank You 🇺🇸🚂🇩🇪
For a Christmas set I would rate it as the best so far . I watched Erics BigBoy complete set with all the special effects , but the price of 4200 for the set is only for the few but is a keeper if you can get one. I have really enjoyed your videos , have a Merry Christmas and Happy New years to you and your family.
Happy New Year Chris 🙂🙂
Happy New Year! I have been away for a bit and just catching up!
It’s definitely an interesting train. The paint scheme is really nice
Not sure who Kyle is but he shredded. Merry Christmas RBP
That's a great looking layout !
I was into ho long ago ,and road Unoin Pacific northern 8444, back in the 70s
.Merry Xmas
Merry Christmas Paul!
It caught my eye in the catalog. It's a beautiful set! Unfortunately I didn't have the space or budget to order one. Thanks for the review
First off I'd like to say, Merry Christmas Chris & hope you & your family have a great Christmas 😊😊 2nd, That's a pretty cool looking Christmas train, I had to watch that one part a 2nd time when you mentioned that Yule was misspelled, I believe it was spelled Yuel?? Still a good looking train overall 😊😊 Again Merry Christmas Chris & hope you & your family have a great Christmas 🎄🎄
Chris you were so right about this set for the year 2023 glad I got mine lol. But I think the Disney Christmas 100 will be more collectible in the years to come, except for the Yueltide car. Anyways, I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
Merry Christmas! The Disney anniversary sets will certainly be collectors items. The only reason I picked this one over the Disney sets is that far fewer of these sets were made. But I could be wayyy off. Thanks for watching!
Hey Chris 👋. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 and happy new year 🎉! Great train set and really collectable. Collecting anything is highly subjective but this set is really cool.
Here's an idea for a future video. I saw some books about trains on your table on one of your videos. It would be great if you could share and flip through those pages. All the best!
Lil late bud
Happy New Year to you as well! I do not have many trains books. Most of them are vintage train guides and there is one that details the order of the passenger cars for certain trains so I can try to keep myself out of trouble when I make videos. The Internet can be hard on me if I put cars in the wrong order, lol. Thanks for watching!
Rbp you are the best you got me inspired to do model railroading
North pole central lines might be an Easter egg since the founder of Lionel started his career in New York, where the New York central lines used to run
I have the entire set and love it 👍
Merry Christmas!!!!!⛄🎁🇺🇸🌲👌👍💪👏🦫
Merry Christmas to you!
you are correct it doesn't fit around the tree it takes up the entire living room and it is so worth it. everyone that sees it loves it. I am not worried about the misspelled car. I so look forward to your videos
Hey Chris! It would be great for an O-31 episode! I’m exploring and new to the hobby…and I’m still working on what I like but, I’m sure like many others, am limited to O-31 due to space constraints. If no episode…would love some must-have recommendations!
Great idea! I did a Semi Scale video back in 2022 (I think). That has some nice options for trains in tighter spaces. I have an idea this year for a video that may lean into this idea a bit. I will certainly try! Thanks for watching
The proofreaders must be from Pennsylvania and were deep into a case of that Yuengling!!
Gonna have to agree to disagree on its collectibility. It’s a nice set, but for something that is seasonal that, as you mentioned, doesn’t fit under a tree I don’t see it being collectable. Maybe the passenger cars, but the engine not so much. Great video and review of it. The new F19 will go well with those passenger cars.
The Elf quote applies to the "Yueltide" error.
"So, you really think we should Ship 'em?
No, I think we should take a $30,000 bath "
Merry Christmas!
😂 Merry Christmas Steve!
First like and first in tu comments!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS AND AWESOME TRAIN
Omg that is an awesome and me and my dad just got the a c and w version and loving it
It certainly is probably the best Christmas set ive seen ,The engine has some nice detail on the roof ,if i had the right track radius it would be on my Merry Christmas to me .I think its gonna be a collectible for sure..
I have the entire set running under a 12 ft xmas tree...it's coupled with a lemax village of houses with animated characters ..stunning...people have come to visit just see this layout....if this doesn't get you into the holiday spirit...check your pulse 😂...I also ordered the matching steam locomotive engine from the 2023 vol 2 catalog
Chris, obviously you just need a bigger tree, like the one in Rockefeller center in NYC. I'm not one who collects fantasy models unless it's done convincingly to be believable, but I do like this set. I could see, how it could be, fun to run. Merry Christmas
I really like that set best christmas passenger train set
Love the Christmas Train I really would love to get it . But I would have to run it like you on my layout. So if I get it I must make a different layout to add all my Depth 56 North Pole collection.
Lionel customer service to Chris. 'Yeul excuse me, but...' 😇 Happy Christmas to you and yours.
lol! Merry Christmas to you!
RBP, there is a Christmas flower arrangement that is called yueltide
Merry Christmas and thank you for this outstanding video and all the great videos of 2023! This is certainly the train set of the year of any manufacturer without a doubt! I don't see how Lionel can top it. It may be the greatest train set of all time! The long sleek beautiful E8s and passenger cars with the stunning Christmas graphics that look like one big rolling Christmas present with the Christmas sounds and music of the locomotive and dining car announcements, "the dining car is now open for hot chocolate and cookies!" And coming next year is another addon, the F-19 Pacific Sleigh Bell Limited which should be incredible! The only thing is the Christmas road numbers are getting kind of crowded on the old CAB 2. I bought this set and unboxed it today. Won't run any better than my 20th Century Limited on my O-72 layout so I will not be able to run it at home. The sounds of the Feziwig Camelback are the same as the NPC E8 though. The French horn is magnificent, in fact glorious, hinting at the deeper true meaning of Christmas. There is no reason to run any other horn. There is a cute little horn melody among the random sounds of the Tower Com. Do you know that the catalog spelling of Yueltide has now been corrected to Yuletide? Have a Happy New Year!
I did not see that they had corrected it online. I am really looking forward to the Fezziwig set. We got that one for my nephews. Happy New Year David!
Thank you Chris I appreciate that! Set up and ran my NPC set at my train Club today and it ran great but discovered that there is some sort of loose body rolling around inside the station sounds diner so I am going to send it back for warrantee repair to Lionel. Wish you and your family all the best this holiday season!@@RBPTrains
Merry Christmas RBP! I do believe this train will double in price by next year, especially on the second hand market. It is great that they used diesels, not the first time but out of the norm for sure. Styled after the greatest railroad ever, the NYC, is the cherry on top. Or should I say the star on top of the tree? Anyway…. Any chance you could share your layout plans, drawing? Do you have a web page that shows your complete layout, laid out?
I have an updated plan that I am glad to share via email. RBPtrains at gmail dot com (have to type it out like this to keep the internet bots away) 😂. Thanks for watching!
Stunning set! I'll go along with it being the train set of the year for now. But if it were a set, I would vote for the Rio Grande Big Boy with some D&RG 21" Aluminum Passenger Cars (color wise).
I’ve been waiting for a Lionel silverton set to be made for years. I’m wondering if it’s a copyright thing. There is a silverton in HO scale.
I have to agree it is a nice set yuel tide
Lionel needs to make a Christmas freight set with a Santa Fe F7 or F3 Warbonnet pulling it.
It is a beautiful set Indeed Chris but the Lionel Big Boy super set hitting right before Christmas might be the best set of the year. I love both but are too expensive for my budget.
I get the feeling yo!!u can't really appreciate your layout in a UA-cam video, it would have to be seen in person. Great video!
Beautiful set Chris if you have the space.
Now if Lionel makes a spelling correction to all other sets? That would make your set highly desirable. 😮👍🏻
I was just wondering about what you would do for your Christmas video!
Funny that your daughter spotted the misspelling. Yueltide. Lost in translation? As far as the O Scale set of the year? Anything but a Big Boy!
Dude. The song at the end of this video is so sweet! Merry Christmas to you and the fam Chris! 🎅🎄
Awesome set Chris. I notice in a photo you got the same MKT double door boxcar with ETD like me. Also did you know country singer Boxcar Willie’s father worked for the Katy railroad?
I did not know that. Thanks for sharing!
I agree Chris I also like this train set. Did you preorder the lionel F-19 Pacific Sleigh Bell limited Steam? You and your family have a wonderful Christmas
I did not order the F-19 but it does look cool. Sorry this reply is so late! Been away for a bit.
Set of the year? I guess all of us in this hobby have some disposable income, but I don't know how big mine would have to be to feel comfortable dropping 4200 bucks on a holiday set that can't be run under the tree. It would only be appropriate on my permanent layout one month a year. Train money could be better spent elsewhere. Still a nice looking set. Thanks for sharing.
A collectible, yes, especially since they misspelled yuletime.😅
I also bought this set and I noticed the misspelled car. Who knows, maybe it will be a real collectors item.
OMG THE POSLOR EXPRESS HOBO FITS UNDER THE BRIDGES NOW. HOW GREAT IS THAT
ope caps lock was on
Im from wisco if ya cant tell
This one is a pass for me. As for collectable, we'll see but I'll take my Canadian pacific holiday train over this any day. That one is very collectable. Nice video though!
It is a neat set. But I can’t call it the set of the year. I feel it is to seasonal. I just can’t see anyone enjoying running this set in July. Great video Chris. Most of the time I agree with your opinion. Just not this time.
I mean yes but it's a solid Christmas train
