Seeing all that Western Pacific brings back a lot of pleasant memories! I was born in the WP Hospital and, as a kid, got to ride in a lot of their engines.🚂🚂🚂🚂
Great video, about Bob Javis’ O Scale Park City Branch Model Railroad Layout. I am going to the Nevada State Railroad Museum in Carson City, Nevada today to ride the Santa Train Ride.
A great time had by all at this one. The story just makes this layout even better. Awesome train's those engines they built are awesome too. Thanks for making it a wonderful Sunday. GOD BLESS 🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖
It sure is! And great structures. But the rolling stock….! Wow. I’ll bet 100 freight cars. All perfect. Can’t even keep all of them on the huge railroad. Then diesel locomotives… mostly Red Caboose. Some brass. But all early versions of EMD and Alco. Then the steam.. all brass….. all perfect…. Rare. Big nine. Several big boys and challengers. Cost over $1000 each. Usually more like $2500. You rarely see these And a bunch of them here. Wow.
Great Video. I love realistic model railroad scales that are larger than HO. Do you know of other people in the area that model "Finescale S?" Keep up the good work. But an occasional video about Kirham's Cobras is great also. Love yer channel!
Love this railroad as a highly detailed and very realistically scenicked "stage" for operating these beautiful locomotives and rolling stock in the finest Frank Ellison tradition. "All the world is a stage." William Shakespeare
Glad you enjoyed it. Amazing layout. Hope you are well and still perfecting your fun American accent!! I love speaking British. Remembering me grandma. Just fond memories of that voice. Anyway thank you for watching this brilliant railway!
@@ToyManTelevision Haha! Yes I often break out a bit of an accent. I've had ideas for videos involving more accents and characters but... that needs time (as with everything). It's good to have connections with past family. All good thanks, you too I hope.
We have some of that and we use it in our 20th scale locomotives mixed with actual ground up coal. Which really looks great! The aquarium gravel by itself is a little too smooth but mixed with ground up coal it’s great!! And we love to pick up coal at railroads so we have real Rio Grande and Nevada northern or whatever. We label our coal with a silver sharpie. Then mash it up in a metal bowl with the handle end of a big hammer. Anyway I’ve used smashed coal in o scale. But the aquarium gravel is impossible to grind and too big for O scale.
@@ToyManTelevisionit's really has. So much so that 3 rail guys give us 2 railers a bad rap. But I'm working on a way to make it easier to get into 2 rail o scale by trying to get atlas to make a 2 rail "fastrack" system much like what lionel has for 3 rail. All the wiring is internalized in the plastic roadbed just like the lionel track and as a result it'd be much easier to make a modular layout to bring to shows.
Not the mines. I think. Tipple in Coalville but not sure how they got the coal there. I know this was originally a narrow gauge line from the mines to Echo. Taken over by UP. In the very early days. Big story. UP didn’t want the competition in the coal market. And as this railroad brought coal down from the mines at Coalville to the echo, UP could starve them out and force them to sell.
Did I not know the name of Jarvis from Model Railroader...sometime early 80's I'll say? Or am I thinking of someone else? Ya know, different topic...I find that throughout history, a lot of old historic railroad buildings have burned to the ground (mysteriously) especially those in inner city areas. I guess it's cheaper than hiring a demo company. And there's always the added bonus of the insurance claim. Or maybe that's the conspiracy side of me working overtime....?? ! yeah right.

Sometimes, simple is the best.
Fantastic! What else can I say.
Those guys who build loco’s are something else. Beautiful.
Really appreciated thi super detailing episode.
Great vidio, love the layout and that coal tipple .Thanks for the afternoon beer...
OH MY. WP is my Line outstanding to see his WP's I got goosey bumps!!
Geez his work is superb!
Eggggggggggggggcellent !

Sounds great! We love that museum.

Glad you enjoyed it. Stay warm. Winter…. God bless you to.
Once again, an amazing video from you guys!
Thanks again!
That railroad is massive. Super cool!

It sure is!
AWESOME GOOD VIDEO THANK YOU BOTH FOR SHARING THIS WITH ME JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA 👌 😀
Glad you enjoyed it. Hi again!
What a great-looking model railroad, thanks for sharing 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Hi Charles!
Thanks 😊
Thanks back!
Another outstanding and fantastic video. Thanks for sharing. I just love that collection and these railroads.
Thank you very much!
This is an amazing collection of O scale. Great project.
These are trains and a half. What cool models. So much detail. Excellent!!!
WOULD SOME LIKE TO HAVE A Western Pacific locomotive 2-8-2 BUILD in O Scale 2-Rail

Couldn't agree more! What a collection of highly detailed brass steam. And more Red Caboose plastic models than we have seen. Ever!
Very nice video of the layout. It's amazing what people can do within the hobby. I'm an O scaler so I really enjoy these.
Thank you very much! Great scale! Hard to fit… but wow!
Fantastic models and a great railroad. Brilliant 👍

@@ThatBIGTRAINGuy do it! What put us onto you was you doing “Bach Man”. Classic! I still laugh!
@@ToyManTelevision Will do. Bach Man was a lot of fun 😂
👍🤠👍
I wonder if you could get the small aquarium charcoal, wash it, and use that for more realistic approach? Just a thought.

Man, I wanna get into 2 rail SO BADLY. I'm with a 3 rail club because quite honestly, they're the only game in town whatsoever.
I’m afraid high rail with three rail track has just really taken over o scale.
@@ToyManTelevisionit's really has. So much so that 3 rail guys give us 2 railers a bad rap. But I'm working on a way to make it easier to get into 2 rail o scale by trying to get atlas to make a 2 rail "fastrack" system much like what lionel has for 3 rail.

I Still Run All non-DDC power. I don't need all that noise in the train room.
Lots of people do!
Dale, did Coalville train the coal down from their mines? I wandered all through Summit County, but never saw any tracks up to the mines.
Not the mines. I think. Tipple in Coalville but not sure how they got the coal there. I know this was originally a narrow gauge line from the mines to Echo. Taken over by UP. In the very early days. Big story. UP didn’t want the competition in the coal market. And as this railroad brought coal down from the mines at Coalville to the echo, UP could starve them out and force them to sell.

It’s usually homeless people living in them. Using fires to stay warm. At least here.
