April 1 is upon us
Tax return part killed me…😂
😮❤❤❤❤
40 niner Challenger Union Pacific
9:08
Love the detail of the other Challenger above proving that this is obviously a real event and not an April 1st joke.
Well, your story checks out.. such an amazing accomplishment. What amazes me most, is that you found the correct size hardhats for the tunneling crew 😆😺👷
Wow you guys really had me going, I live about half way between Atlanta and Baltimore. Several months ago I was repainting my shed in the backyard and found a Lionel power brick plugged into an outlet on the back wall. At 1st I thought it was one of mine, but then I realized I had no reason to have one there. Then I saw a label saying ‘do not remove property of the US Government’, so I left it alone.
Somehow your video showed up on my newsfeed today. I am convinced I am a victim of your piracy of my 110 service.
This absolutely hilarious. Great start to April. Well done sir.🤣🤣🤣 I see you also had to make sure that you both had the exact same engine to pull it off.
Absolutely awesome. The cats clearing the debris and laying the track. Way to go guys.
This explains why I couldn't get ahold of any power bricks in the last 2 years😂
I LOVE April Fools Day! This is worthy of some type of award. Nice work Gents!
Great job by both cats to help dig that tunnel. 🎉
Where were three cats that help with clearing to tunnel. Of course a dog would have been better for digging a tunnel than a cat that's just dig a little hole to pooping and then they cover it up imagine if they dug the hole and then they covered it up after they filled it full of s***.
I live here in Chesapeake Beach and a couple days ago I was walking the boardwalk and I swear I heard a steam engine (which none come here anymore), this video explains alot!
I couldn't stop laughing I had a pretty crummy day at work but this was awesome this cheered me up thank you so much great April fool's prank and God bless you Eric and Chris thanks guys and happy railroading
James May (from Top Gear) once laid what I think was 4 miles of HO track and ran some trains all the way across it.
It would be cool to see all the O scale UA-cam’s do a similar challenge and have a train run a comparable distance.
Eric, you always pull out all the stops for April fools, great video 😂
Seems legit. 👍I imagine the hardest part was finding tiny safety equipment for the cats. 😃
And maybe phasing all 400 Power Houses! ;)
This video is AMAZING!!! despite it being edited, I can imagine that being a real thing. the longest model train tunnel from Eric to Chris. That was a pretty good joke!
Now all we need to do is make another to my layout! Another couple thosand miles!
Oh my gosh you two are something else! 😂 well congratulations 🎉🍾‼️Rather ingenious I have to say. Stay tuned to see what train goes through this amazing tunnel 😜Well done Gentleman ‼️Very well done indeed.
Did the crew get to have a bite to eat before heading back? It’s funny that’s what I thought of , thanks y’all that was epic!
That is what playing with trains is all about, having fun.
They used to call that a "chain letter" . But in this case you can call it a "train letter" ! Very well put together !
What an incredible achievement! A 700 mile tunnel. It’s unheard of. That was very clever. Great job and contributions on everyones part in the video, you, your girlfriend, Chris and the 3 cats. Well done!
What a great smoke unit. Went 700 miles without getting refilled. Great video! 👍
You two are crazy. Great video.
Just when you thought UA-cam videos and April fool's jokes could not get any more ridiculous and hilarious Eric's trains and RBP trains broke the world record of April fool's joke
That is the coolest thing every! You should put a live feed cupola camera to record the entire trip. 😅
Such a great project so well done. Thanks eric and chis . Gary
Awesome video Eric’s trains I can’t believe Chris got the letter and sent it back to you
I want to buy the smoke fluid that lasts for 700 miles of run time without refilling! lol
You're both insane... Insanely awesome!
I see this as just the beginning to an interstate like system for model railroaders. 🎉
Hilarious man, great work and thought put into this awesome april fools joke. Kudos Eric!!!! And Chris!!!!!
This was great guys, what a refreshing spin on 4/1. After a hard week ‘brought a huge smile to my face!
Ok then
Chris, Eric, very creative video. I enjoyed it from brginning to round trip end.
Haha, good one Eric and Chris, great job on the editing, it looks pretty convincing. Love the tax return scene. Happy April 1st!
Hahaha lmao!!!! Love it! ❤👍🏻.
Great collaboration guys. Wish my smoke fluid lasted 700 miles. 😂
This is a great Video! Very creative and fun!!!
Super video here Eric ! Truly an amazing feet this 700 mile tunnel!
Well played Eric, my wife asked "did they really build a tunnel".😄
A gunnies world record!!! For Eric’s trains!!😮😃
But seriously is it a world record?
The ultimate crossover has begun! This kinda reminds me of this video challenge idea that I came up with a few years ago for my channel🚂
This was great. Was laughing the entire time hahaha. Brilliant work on both of you guys
💯🚂❤️👍 Epic tunnel right there. Congrats on its maiden voyage too funny thanks to both of you for the April fools day shenanigans just made my day if he lived a few doors down from where you’re at it could definitely be a possibility. Still epic that must be mega smoke that you’re using to last that long of a trip lol great work guys 💯🚂❤️👍
Eric this was one of the most creative videos that I have seen on UA-cam! Chris/RBP trains was the perfect partner! I thought it was very appropriate picking the “HOTDOG”. Thanks for giving me a lot of laughs watching this one!
Just a heads up Eric, if you find that you’re missing a few of the Powerhouse 180s along the Greensboro NC leg of the tunnel, I had to borrow them for my layout!😂
Way to go guys enjoyed the video an awesome group of cats in their excavation more extensions to the tunnel
That was a lot of fun to watch. Great video.
Surprised you didn't send a Cab Forward 😅
In all seriousness, the fact you mailed your train up there for this, that's some commitment!
NGL I thought at first it was legit but then I remembered it was April 1st. But it is really cool to see a Collab with RBP trains.
Awesome, and hilarious! The tax return part was great. And the cats laying the track and cleaning the tunnels, of course! lol
Thanks
I loved this collaboration
OMG, Eric and Chris!
April fools day is obviously here!!! 🤣😂🤣
Absolutely Amazing Work you guys did together first Ever Both deserve 👏 to be In the 📖 Guinness Book of 🌎 Record 😅 Great Acomplishment 🎉🎉🎉
Sent this to a few buddies and all of them completely forgot what day it is😂
This is a really cool video and I am enjoying it the both of you Erich and Chris
Glad you enjoyed it
THAT Was flipping awesome!! LOL Love it
I just really love that he showed man's worst thing....TAXES
A 700-mile tunnel would be electrified. Cascade tunnel. Was electrified because of the smoke from the steam locomotives and even with the less amount of smoke from the diesel locomotives they still had to vent the tunnels in between trains.
“My trains are prisoners on my layout’ lol 😂
Impressive performance by the 49ner scheme challenger
Great collaboration video u guys….
🤣🤣 You're both a couple of nuts....but it was great ! Lisa, keep an eye on these boys ! 👍
Brilliant idea! But I have questions: 1) Are you going to pull cars on the next trip; 2) Are you going to attach a camera to one car so we can watch the trip to n fro? 😮😊👍
Challengers were passenger locomotives and work more than capable of going over 100 miles an hour.
One of the train-related subjects I routinely daydream about is such a tunnel -- but a more realistic scenario running between two adjoining houses with basement layouts. Even thought through the details of tunnel construction (cut & cover), waterproofing, power and derailment mitigation.
At it's craziest extent, it would have involved three adjoining neighbors, each with different themed layouts. Imagine the sight of a modern autorack train thundering through someone's (large-ish) postwar layout on its way to a hi-rail system at the far end, confined to a single double-track main passing through its center, established as the only path with barely enough clearance for modern-era scale-sized trains to pass (as long as the switches remain set to straight through) :D
Very creative and well done! I think it would have been cool to have a caboose bringing up the markers...the relief crew should have a place to rest! Happy April!!!
CRC Co. that’s the new name. Short for Cat railroad Construction Co. lol amazing job.
2:58 Eric looks like Walter from the Big Lebowski 😂
Nice April Fools prank, Chris and Eric!
A masterclass in engineering, far greater than researching limitless power or solving world hunger
AWESOME 😎😎 Good job on the longest tunnel there, that's pretty cool 😎😎 Bet y'all were tired after you get done building it, very cool 😎😎
hahahahahahahahahahaha this is hilarious !!!!! Great video and tons of fun. You guys are are so much fun. AND.....you made better time than Amtrak haha
1400 miles without adding smoke fluid. That’s the most impressive part.
Great start to April
This is the best video I have seen!! Made my day!! If I could give a million likes I would!😂❤
That was some amazing smoke fluid you used.
You had me until you said that the cats did work.😹
1:30 700 miles? That’s going to be through the states of Georgia, North Carolina Virginia and Maryland. Union Pacific 3949:
3:50 mister Eric I’m a bit nervous.
6:18 ya think?
6:42 hello RPB trains. Ah it’s great to see light.
9:02 goodbye.
10:49 oh Eric I’m home!
Great video, thanks guys
Took me about 3 minutes to figure it out! Very Good!!!
Great idea for this video..very enjoyable. Thx
Great task really enjoyed it
Eric, you and Chris really live so far away from one another I wanna make a tunnel but not a 700 mile one I like it to be 200 miles
I have no real words to this great & awesome April fool's video!
Hahaha!! April 1st and you guys are sticking your hot dogs into tunnels.
HA HA…You had me for a minute 😂. GREAT TEAMWORK!!!!!!!
I believe that 500k amount part you’ve spent on trains🚂🔥🔥🔥🔥😂
Nice *story*
April fool's good one love it.😂
a third layout? well that will be a couple more years we will have to wait.
Running a model train 1400 miles would indefinitely shorten the lifetime of the model train a considerable amount anyways, definitely an elaborate April Fool’s prank.
😂Best April Fools joke ever! 👍
There you go again - My grandson wants me to built a long distance train tunnel. Where do we rent the tunnel boring machine? I did check at my MENARDS. - Gary from Michigan 🚂
Just awesome....
You guys did a Mr Rogers neighborhood trolley!
Awesome April fools video. I love it.
April fool. Great fun guys. Enjoyed it.
Hah! Nice one Eric, Happy April Fools Day!
It's true what they say about cats. They find model railroading to be a "boring" hobby...
Fun video Eric! Good job!
