It's like what I also said, I've never knew a kid whoever turned down on a toy train yet; most kids love trains. I should know, I've used to love trains myself when I was just a kid. Now those were the childhood memories I'd remember.
I knew plenty of kids who turned down a train set. Best case I remember is a friend who got the entire lego Santa Fe Super Chief set in 2002 (2 engines and 5 cars) but threw the entire thing in the trash a month later cause it was “boring.” By the way that set is worth a fortune now
Call it ironic but those Santa Fe warbonnets came right out of a department store display from 1954! They still run great even after all the years of abuse
Absolutely LOVE this video - with proper nod to Mr. Bing. Great trains running on tubular track, and great music coming off a real record - complete with snap, crackle, pop.
Why thank you! I found that scratchy V-Disc tossed in the bottom of a record box at a thrift store. It’s in horrid condition but fortunately it still plays ok without too much surface noise
I have subbed to your channel because of the effort you put into videos like this. Well filmed, edited, and choreographed. Appreciate you showing the vintage record label too. Now I want that record for my own.
Thank you! A friend of mine found that record player and it was completely dead on arrival. I’m an Electrical Engineer so getting it up and running was easy, all it needed was replacing the electrolytic capacitors and 2 leaky vacuum tubes. And of course overhauling the whole mechanism
Great to see ya again Corey! I can’t wait to see your winter tidal wave of videos. With all the painstaking effort you always have this oughta be awesome! P.S. I voted for Holiday Themed Trains first :)
Great video really cool looking layout you have there 🎄🎅 I especially like the Santa Fe warbonnets 😍👍 too bad one of them had a bad crack on the back of the shell 😫
You’ve got a good eye there that indeed is a bad crack from its previous life as a department store display locomotive. I’d guess at some point an employee played drag racing and launched it onto the floor breaking the shell and damaging the paint

What a cool combo. I love it. Trains and Christmas.
Two of my favorite things as well, that and of course putting up Christmas decorations. Thanks for watching!
@@richardstrainsandmore you are welcome!
I feel like this would be a display in a department store in the 50's. Super cool!

It's like A Lionel Trains from 1950's Christmas layout fantasy
Christmas Trains, big band and Bing Crosby.. perfect Christmas!! Merry Christmas!!
Great song by Mr. Bing Crosby and I like your new Christmas look on the layout. Great job .Thanks for sharing. "Happy Rails". GMan
Took a lot of finagling to get the decorations on (including some derailments!) but it was all worth it. Thanks!
Nice Collection of Trains. CHEERS FROM New Jersey USA 🇺🇸
Here’s my thanks all the way from “lovely” Inland Empire ca!

Super Christmas setup...lots of interesting cars around the drive-in! Thanks. T4
Aha! I knew somebody would notice! There’s cars from Spongebob’s boatmobile to Doc Hudson to even Mr Toad’s car.

Feels like 50's but in 2021
That’s the exact feel I was aiming for, a classic Christmas done today
Can't wait for my new layout to be done but that's probably going to be in January unfortunately guess I will just have to marathon all of your videos
That was me last year when my layout was in pieces during Christmas. I didn’t realize you were building a new layout, I bet it’ll look awesome!
@@richardstrainsandmore at its widest is it will be 8ft and the length will be roughly 25ft long and hopefully I can start work on it in January
