Man, the level of detail Mr Cawley has put into this project is insane! He even got the Mario Bava style coloured lighting spot on. You can really tell a lot of love went into this, not to mention a tonne of time and money.
He consulted with everyone that was involved that was still alive to make it as accurate as possible. One thing i forgot to mention, in the transporting room, he couldn't figure out what they used for the wavy material in the background, until one night onstage performing as elvis, the light hit the drums just right, and he realized that material was drum wrap!!
WOW! That was really cool. You did a great job filming all the sets. Thanks for taking us along.
100% Amazing. The place is a treasure and James and his staff are wonderful. Love the fans - talking to them and hearing their reactions. Thanks
The Trouble with Tribbles...one of the best episodes! Excellent job recreating the tour!
Oh my gosh! I'm so glad you visited that museum! I know a lot of the people that worked very hard to put that all together. A lot of those props are actually replicas but the people that made them are absolute sticklers for the details. I'm actually working on a prop from the show myself (but not for this museum). Yes James is awesome and it truly was a labor of love. I've watched them build all this from the very beginning. Its on my bucket list for sure!
I went to one of the traveling shows hosted by a science museum that was set to coincide with the release of the first JJ Abrams ST Movie. I paid $20 (on top of the museum $15 fair) to see what I believed were actual TOS props. It turns out they had a few costumes but MOST of what they were showing in the $20 exhibit were replicas of the screen used props. The whole show (except for the 8-10 costumes) was a LIE so they could host many shows in many cities simultaneously. I was so disappointed. I had been totally suckered of $20+ the museum's regular fair. In retrospect, I realize that the actual props didn't work any better than these replicas... but it was the idea that you were paying cash to see the actual thing - then to find out it was even the real fakes... they were just fake fakes. So disappointing.
They have a lot of great stuff. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. Glad to see Jah again. Thanks for taking us along. Take care.
Outstanding, kill 2 birds with one stone, meet Elvis AND Captain Kirk at the same time !!! Great job my man !! Good to see Star Trek may never die !!!
This was amazing!! I've got to go. Elvis is still alive and giving Star Trek tours!!
What an amazing passion project this is! Amazing!
I am a huge fan of the original star track Ioved spock Bones and captain kirk and I remember when it first came on Tv Thanks for showing us this museum !!!!
I went on the Ticonderoga Tour a few years ago and it blew me away! It's amazing how much detail they put into the construction of this place. Every Trekkie should come visit this wonderful museum. Thanks for relaying those tours anecdotes!
I really enjoyed this vlog.
Thank you for sharing as usual, and Jah.😂
I was on this tour with you!!! What a weekend!!! I got engaged there in 2017 and we go back every year!
How did I not know this place existed? Mind-boggling!!! I would have never thought most of those props still existed and are on display. Especially ones like even the clothes worn by some guest stars.
This was a really impressive tour. Thank you for taking the time to explain all the details of the sets, they were outstanding.
Jordan, may you, Mr Cawley and his team - Live Long and Prosper. Many thanks.
What a ton of work and sweat and care went into this. This was wonderful Jordan! I remember that Leonard Nimoy came to the children's ward of the hospital my mom and I worked at years ago. He was my favorite. Would love to save up and go here sometime. Thank you Jordan. Awesome 👍
Fantastic, Jordan. Thank you. Xoxox
In the 70s, I remember watching Star- Trek with my Dad. Thank you Jordan. You find many unique museums to vlog. I learned so many fun facts in this video. 😊
Wow - thanks for this great tour - didn’t even know that it existed!!! 🎉❤🎉
Bravo 🙌!!
Well done Jordan 😎❤️!!
Enjoyed again Jordan, your an extraordinary guy, thanks for jarring my memory for this old man😂 hello Jah😊
So many cool things! Great video, live long and prosper! 🖖🏼
Thank you for sharing this video.
Just took the tour a week ago and you did a fantastic job of giving everyone a great overview of the experience! I'll add that being in each room, you also get all the ambient sounds of that particular room, which you may not even remember specifically. It really did feel like you were on the ship. Amazing experience!
Jordan this an awesome video this was exciting and I really enjoyed and thank you for sharing.
would love to go see this thanks for going and sharing
My old hometown.....wow...your everywhere i was at times of my life. :)

Thanks that was awesome I enjoyed watching
Jordan, awesome video! I am from Albany, NY originally ( Now live in Averill Park, NY 45 minutes from Albany). I remember years ago when James Cawley was ranked one of the best Elvis impersonators in the country. He was amazing live. I love your channel, I am a subscriber. love the videos you did with Vickie Hamilton. She is amazing and I loved her book too. Best wishes always! 😀✌
LOVED the tribbles have one
This is a great tour,Jourdan!And,this does remind you of Star Trek,the original serie’s!And,I’ve seen the show that Mr.Cayley made of;Star Trek!
This was great. Thank you 👍🏼😎
Never considered myself a Trekie. but this was nice to see even with the recreated items. Great tour!
This guy has to be the number 1 Trekkie in the world, very well done. To bad you couldn't film but it was a great tour Jordan! Very funny with you and the spiral glasses and the Spock Hair piece! live long and prosper!🖖
Very cool ! Thank you!
The best thanks I’m going soon for the first time❤
Outstanding tour ! Fantastic narration .
Hi Jordan you tube channel Love my favorite one fan Big Star Trek video Love my favorite one fan Big 💖
Amazing!!!
Loved this video, Jordan! I was 12 when the first episode of Star Trek debuted on TV in 1966 and I fell in love with the series immediately. I was so bummed when the show was cancelled in 1969. I was very, very hesitant to watch Star Trek: The Next Generation because I couldn't believe that the new series would even come close to the original. Boy was I wrong! I won't say I liked it more than the original, because they each had their own appeal and stories so I'll just say I loved them both. Jordan, if I heard right, you said you hadn't seen any Next Generation episodes. If that's true, you're really missing out on an amazing show. Like any new series, you need to give it time and watch several episodes before passing judgement and if you do, you'll love Next Generation as much as the original. I'll admit, I'm somewhat of a hypocrite in that I never watched a single episode of any Star Trek series that came after The Next Generation. I became a single parent with 4 kids in 1998, and didn't have the time, even though a couple of the new series had been showing for several years afterwards. I also thought nothing could beat the original Star Trek and The Next Generation. Maybe when I retire, I'll check out the other series that came after Next Generation. I've seen every single Star Trek movie though and I think my favorite will always be Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home! Keep up the good work Jordan and give Jaw a hug for me!
It's always good to see JAH in the beginning, thanks for letting us know what he was doing, I actually started watching your videos because I had a pup that looked just like JAH but she passed away last June, about a month later I seen JAH and your Waco video letting us know his breeds , those are the best breed of dogs, mine absolutely loved belly rubs, she had a shirt that said ( free belly rubs) that was her favorite.
Jordan this tour of the Original Star Trek set was fantastic from either original props or recreations was. Great to see as a Trekiie was very impressed thanks for this vlog definitely a. Top ten
Jah is adorable!!
Really awesome!!!
OMG Jordan! My generation's star wars fantastic! This was an amazing tour I loved this show so much. I also enjoyed the Next Generation with my son. Amazing that they recreated so much original stuff. Lots of fun for you, loved the hair by the way.
Despite not being able to record video, you did a remarkable job Jordan! I am a big Star Trek fan, and you capture everything just right! LLAP.
Wow, thanks!
Love your video, and what fun. I watch Scott mIchael vlog yesterday nice socks and t shirt that you gave him
Kool I have seen every one of them never missed not one
Appreciate the video! I caught Ambassador Kollos's chamber on the transporter.
verry kool...
wow Jordan, another good one. Loved Star Trek!!! I knew all the props were made up, but to see them close up, and learn how some of them were made, is awesome. Thank you my friend, stay safe.
This is a AWESOME video Jordan ! I remember when the original was on tv. I would never miss an episode. It was in my opinion the best show on tv. This to brings back memories of better days THANK YOU FRANK FROM MONTANA.....
OMG ! This was over the top AMAZING !!! LOVED this series ! So Cool ! I've gotta share this one with my Brothers, we use to watch these together when we were kids. Umm.... You might pick a few new subs, Jordan. Thank You !👽
Imagination, intelligence, and story are what made TOS great. They had neither the money or " fancy" computers to make special effects. A lot better the some of the movies and TV shows made today.
"Do you remember when they went to this planet and they did that thing? Yeah, that was cool..."
This was so cool!
Great job on the video!
That was fabulous! Im going to share this with my family who are big original Star Trek fans. Over the years weve been able to meet most of the original cast. This place will now be on bucket list to visit. Thanks Jordan 🖖
5:13 Still my favorite ❤🧡Leonard's 10-yo adorable son Adam visited the set, unbeknownst to him. As a gag, the props department fit the boy with a set of pointy ears. Then, while Spock was sitting in costume in the Captain's chair on set, little Adam, wearing his new ears, snuck up behind him, very sweetly kissed his father on the cheek and goes "Hi Daddy". 😆😂🤣
That was wicked cool I'll never have a chance to go see it so thank you. You the man. THANKS 👍
Hi Jordan, oh, that was just amazing. The attention to detail of everything was superb. Seeing the original costumes aswell, they looked brand new. I loved seeing the games they played. Who would have thought it was all made on such a low budget, but it did the trick. Great vlog Jordan.
I just visited there today with my mom. It was well done. Sadly. Mr. Cawley came off as a bit anti social. But our tour guide was very friendly.
Gene Winfield has cool display of Star Trek props that he designed and built for the original series.
Brilliant Jordan 👏 thanks 👍
WOW WOW WOW TFS
Wow wow wow a dream came me true you have taken me to a very happy place in my life, Star Trek was all that! Watched it over and over, loved all the characters especially Lt Ohuda (sp) because of the time women weren’t given special cameos like she was, Caption Kirk I was then love with and Spock was the bomb, such a series way ahead of its time. My favorite was when Captain Kirk and Spock landed in a place where they found a black cat, of course she turned into a beautiful woman and took over Capt Kirk incredible show, ty so much Jordan for this you made my day🐾🤗🥰🐈⬛😎loved your Spock look
amazing episode buddy, i love when you do these and collections
Sheldon Cooper would be in heaven!
Dynamite, Jordan.
Ican almost reciet the whole entire theme song cause my ex would watch Star trek
I did the Set Tour several weeks ago, when Shatner was at Ticonderoga for an event at a nearby elementary school (which really needed better air conditioning -- it was as hot as a horny horta!). Great fun to see this almost perfect re-creation of the Desilu studio sets.
One thing I noticed, though, which jarred just a bit, was the chronometer console on the Bridge just in front of the Captain's Chair -- seen at 26:12 in this video. It must represent how the set was designed for the original pilot "The Cage" rather than how it was altered later on, when they filmed the TOS episode "The Naked Time." They didn't invent the "stardate" concept until they made the 2nd pilot, "Where No Man Has Gone Before" -- and thus the clock-console doesn't depict the 'stardate' on this Bridge set.
This set has HRS 🔘MIN on the Left ["10:37"] and 🔘 SEC on the Right ["31"]. But when they filmed "The Naked Time" they changed this so that there was a STARDATE clock on the Left -- a number between '0000.0' and '9999.9' representing a decade's worth of Time -- and a SHIPBOARD clock on the Right, which was a 24-hour clock running from "00:00:00" to "23:59:59" and in that episode we see both clocks clicking BACKWARDS through Time due to the Enterprise having to do that cold-start of the engines after Riley had shut 'em down, with Spock's efforts resulting in the ship going back in Time for the first time ever . . . until Kirk had the engines go on 'reverse' until the backwards-clicking clocks stopped going backwards and then resumed going forwards again.
Since they didn't have "stardates" in "The Cage" the original blueprints for this part of the Bridge set wouldn't have a "STARDATE" clock, of course, and Mr. Cawley's re-creation is true to the original blueprints, I am sure. But after that original pilot, they changed that set piece, having the STARDATE and SHIPBOARD clocks next to each other, as they had come up with the 'stardate' idea by then. The Franz Joseph STARFLEET TECHNICAL MANUAL has it the way we see it in "The Naked Time" rather than how it's depicted here at '26:12'.
As I figure it -- ignoring what has been done in 'canon' ever since the end of the 'classic' Trek era and the TNG/DS9/VOY era -- the events at Talos IV occurred in December of 2252, and Starfleet upgraded its Constitution Class ships (etc.) when the UFP adopted the then-new 'STARDATE' system of time-keeping, wherein they decimalized the Earth year, with 1,000 StarDate Units ['SDU'] equaling 365.2425 days = 31,556,952 seconds, with each SHIPBOARD day equaling 2.737907006988508 SDU. I like to think that at the stroke of Midnight ["00:00:00 UT"] when 1 January 2253 began, the Stardate system began, its 1st decade's worth of time beginning then with Stardate 0000.0 [or, more fully, Stardate 0000.00.00.00 -- see the 3rd film for this fuller format], and coming to and end 3652.425 days later, 10.2 hours into 1 January 2263 (i.e. 0.425 days into that date), to begin another decade's worth of Stardate Time -- the decade in which TOS takes place.
I don't know about other Trek fans, but I put the TOS episodes into Stardate order, with "Where No Man..." as the 1st (not counting "The Cage") at Stardate 1312.4 and "All Our Yesterdays" as the final adventure at Stardate 5943.7. If we re-interpret Stardate 1277.1 -- the date Gary Mitchell etched onto Kirk's gravestone -- as the date when Kirk's command of the Enterprise began, the start of the 5-Year Mission, rather than a 'birth'-date, then my system has Day 1 of the 5-Year Mission being 11 April 2264, which spanned Stardates 1274.70.10.56 to 1277.43.89.62, and the Mission would come to its end c. 11 April 2269, somewhere around Stardate 6275. Every decade they zero-out the Stardate clock back to 0000.0 so that the films -- well, from "The Wrath of Khan" through "The Final Frontier" -- are set in the decade beginning with the year 2273 (the decade after the TOS 5-Year Mission), and "The Undiscovered Country" is set near the end of the decade beginning c. 2283, with the Kirk-era launch of the Enterprise-B being near the start of the decade beginning c. 2293. The TNG stardates have the year 2323 as their start-time.
Don't get me wrong -- I thoroughly enjoyed the Set Tour at Ticonderoga, but as an insufferable Trek nerd obsessed with the Chronology of Classic Trek, this one little disparate detail rankled just a teeny tiny bit. I'm sure it's accurate to the original blueprints drafted for the production of "The Cage" . . . but the actual TV show, which included 'stardates' that weren't thought of until after they'd made that 1st pilot, changed that set-piece to include the STARDATE and SHIPBOARD dual clocks, and it's too bad that this change isn't represented on the Bridge set Mr. Cawley built.
'Neal' from Family Guy would just have a field day
want one of those transporter rooms
I wish somebody would build a full upper & lower jupiter 2 deck connected together with that coolest of all working elevator. imagine that being your home! of course a b9 robot would have to be there too!
The “engineering tubes” in the show and in real life were called the “Jeffries tubes” named after their creator, set designer Matt Jeffries.
HI JORDAN........
How odd, I was on the tour with you. Watching your video is the closest thing to going back to Ticonderoga.
Cool. We were there for a tour in June and Woodstock site in one week. What a week. The owner did not lead our tour and it was not an Castmember Weekend. What a Blast!!!
Have you been to the other STOS set tour in GA near Jacksonville, FL?
Although I liked the original Star Trek, I have never come anywhere near trekkie status...Despite this, this set and tour was mind blowing. Kudos for the labor of love and extreme attention to detail and all of the set used pieces and props.
A side question...Am I only one who thinks the no filming policy but you can take a gazillion photos (here and elsewhere) is completely looney?
I don't get what they're protecting.
The "no filming" is exactly why Adam and I went to Neutral Zone Studios Kingsland, Georgia. They're more accommodating there. Plus their show (Star Trek Continues) is 2nd to none in quality. They're practically part of the original series.
I second that opinion. I have been to the Neutral Zone Studios multiple times, never ceases to amaze me, photos and video recording are not only permitted, but encouraged, and its free(donations are appreciated, though)!!
Watch the episodes "The Corbomite Maneuver" and "Tomorrow is Yesterday." In these episodes the bridge turbo lift door entering the bridge had TWO doors, not the one RED door. The "inner" door color was the same as the corridor walls. When Kirk is going up to the bridge for the first time in the episode "Corbomite Maneuver" first the inner door opens a bit and then the red door opens as Kirk then enters the bridge. In the episode "Tomorrow is Yesterday" as Kirk walks Captain Christopher through a hallway and enters a different turbo lift (than the one on the bridge), there is a side view as the TWO elevator doors open. I did not see this nor on the other set duplicate that was used in making the great fan show "Star Trek Continues." Although the set door operators used only the outer red doors (at least for these TWO different turbo lifts on the set) during al most all the episodes, In one episode which I think is also in the "Corbomite Maneuver" (but I may be wrong) the door operator actually closed the "white" inner door on the bridge rather than the red door. But the camera quickly moves away from it so it is probably never noticed by most fans.
And I have seen every movie
Building used to be a p&c food market in the 80s.
Hes going to take over the whole block eventually with different sets.. it will be quite a big destination
@@DazewithJordantheLion miss my hometown. It's small , but life for 20 years was there. Many memories. Fort ticonderoga is quite the place to visit also
That's cool that you made it up to Ticonderoga and saw the Star Trek TOS Set Tour. 🖖 If you're still in the area, check out the fort.
I live an hour south of there.
If you're into Civil War history and near Saratoga Springs, Grant's cottage on Mount McGregor (in Wilton) is nearby.
Dude so cool you got to do this! What was the best part??
I never liked star trek or understood all the hype over it but regardless still another cool video.
Eeeeeeeeeeeee!❤
This is so cool.
I remember going to see the Motion Picture in the theaters, I fell asleep because it was so boring & I was 5. When we went to see Wrath of Kahn a couple years later tho, I didn’t miss a single moment…
Thanks for the memories Jordan!
What enterprise model is that a fan made one? Not the Smithsonian one
Fan made episodes, even though they get the props, sets, lighting and costumes correct, they never get the make up and film texture right. I mean is it that hard to hunt down the actual cameras and film stock from the era that were used in the shooting of the original series? Similarly with the make up products and techniques? I suppose generative a.i. may help in getting the right texture but who knows, maybe there'll be a TOS app developed that will automatically convert digital recording to match film grains and emulsion results from the late 60's.
What episode og TBBT were you on?
