There are three things we LOVE about Simon and That Big Train Guy. One: the channel is great. Good content. Simon nails the presentation. Two: He’s exactly what the hobby needs. We are loosing the old guys on a dally basis. We NEED men AND WOMEN of any other generation who are not only excited about the hobby but are getting others excited. Without this model trains will be a historic anachronism. People in 2050 will be looking at video of huge model railroads and saying “oh amazing. Strange… but amazing. Where is the like button? Because wow, amazing”. Three: (yes I’m still on a list). Simon is into large scale, F scale, garden railroading. There is a reason why all the companies making these are gone. And Bachmann is not making anything new. Because it’s been branded a dead hobby. Joining Dungeons and Dragons on the hobby trash heap. Well… if you get on line you will find that about.003% of people play Dungeons and Dragons. Religiously. And .0657% have excellent garden railroads. And if we can get that number back to .157% (okay busted. I’m just pulling those numbers out of thin air. But that’s what Americans do. Deal with it). Then Bachmann may tool up a totally new spectrum F scale locomotive. And that might be a K28. And so.. anyway in the meantime we garden railroaders need to stick together. And preach from street corners. OH! And build. And operate. And build some more.
Well said Dale. I have been told "Nice videos, but you are a bit behind. They haven't made these in years". And that's the point: Keep showing interest and hopefully this scale will grow again. Already I've lost count of how many 1000s of dollars/pounds have been spent on these models by viewers, so it's working! 🥰 Thank you Dale 🚀
Awesome!! I do Garden railroading too and am trying to get my friends involved in the hobby as well!! It’s a great hobby and needs to be shared throughout all modeling and gardening enthusiasts!
Hello Simon, these railway axles just look great. Great the rust on the wheel discs. Goes perfectly with this freight car. Thank you for showing me. Greetings Wolfgang
I love Toy Man Television been watching their channel for a least 8 or more years. They are two of the funnest kids on youtube. When it comes to screwing around and having fun, I don't know of anyone out here that does it any better and with great style and class.... I'm glad that they chose to bless you with the things you needed to give your train car a good extra touch of class... Keep up the good work of helping to keep our hobby a live. Like he said "us older guys are making our way to that great round house and depot out of this world. We need more young people to carry on the love of model trains.... Be blessed my friend in Jesus name... BBE..
Hi Bobby. Oh so you were one of the first Toy Man viewers then! They are brilliant, so enthusiastic, interesting and fun. They make me consider being retired as a career path 😂 Thank you. Bless you my friend.
It's great. The way UA-cam works, it's better if channels support each other. There's one guy that hates when other's do similar videos as his, and he even blocked my complimentary comments on his videos. His loss 😂 We are a community, and we all should be friends, enjoying our hobby together. Thank you!
That was so awesome of Dale and Karyn to do for you! I'm subscribed to their channel, they have so much content that they post. I'm going to have to take some time and watch some of your videos too.
I just saw your show on Face Book posted by Toy Man Television. I have been a fan of Dale and Kayrn for a long time and now I will check out your channel.
Very cool 😎 Toy man television rocks I love their UA-cam channel and I’m a new subscriber to yours, and I like your channel as well thanks for sharing 😀
Have you seen pictures of the prototype? They had a narrow gauge small push car, actually a handcar trailer, that they flipped upside down between the wheels and the tie bin?

A great gift don't you think? So nice.
Thanks Wolfgang.
Simon; what nice thing for Dale to do. I only wished that I could do such quality work. Thanks for sharing with us.
It's great isn't it? And with a casting machine, you can make a start on creating similar work. 😉
Thanks Ken
So nice of them to send you the gift. The car looks great with the new wheels and ties.
Yes, so kind!
I'll have to weather up the car now so it looks the part all over.
Thabks for your comment.

Yeah they are lovely people.
Thank you, yes see what I have so far. There's loads planned so it'll only get better 😉
Growing up in Colorado, I love your use of the D&RGW, 'The Action Line' font.
Well, I love the Rio Grande, and it is an awesome looking font 😁
I just saw your show on Face Book posted by Toy Man Television. I have been a fan of Dale and Kayrn for a long time and now I will check out your channel.
Brilliant, they're a great pair.
Great to have you join me. Thanks John.
What a generous gift from the toy man! I should really model one of these rail and tie cars, in Ho or Hon3.
I can honestly say that Dale and Kayron are really great in person.
They are lovely people. ☺️
I'm here because of Dale and Karen.
That's their plan 😂
Thanks for being here.
That's great! I follow Toyman Television too.
How's the blue diesel?
The diesel? I haven't had the time to look at it yet. Hopefully this week, (if other things don't get in the way).

Thanks so much for joining me! Glad to have you here.
