    Today this is also in my area. A model train club with all O scale trains that used to be in my town recently got relocated and they just finished the layout at the new place and are currently in the process of adding the scenery

    In this video, we see American Harmony, one of the American Cruise Lines cruise ships heading down the Columbia River going underneath the Cable Bridge and towards the BNSF Railway bridge with a section that has raised up for it to pass through if there is no train traffic!

    I'm really excited to see how this layout is going to come together - I have a feeling that it's going to look absolutely amazing when it's finished!

    This is the Tri Cities Model Railroaders in Kennewick, Washington!
    7:12: You compare the HO scale Santa Fe Railway Warbonnet diesel locomotive #6067 you bought from the Tri Cities Model Railroaders store for $10 and the G scale General Electric Dash 8-40CW diesel locomotive #868 from MTH Electric Trains!
    As always I am Thomas Comeau signing off for today!

      What manufacturer is the HO scale Santa Fe Railway diesel locomotive #6067 made?
      What type of diesel locomotive is the HO scale Santa Fe Railway diesel locomotive #6067?

      It was made by Bachmann. Other than that, I don't know much about it.

    Nice. The models you saw, including the one you bought, are Bachmann HO scale models. If you could possibly make some space, perhaps you could run some Bachmann HO scale trains and compare them with your G Scale models.😂

    If you ever venture to NJ you need to check out Northlandz. They have over 8 miles of track

    • @JimZim
      @JimZim  Рік тому +1

      Yeah, I've seen some UA-cam videos about their layout. Impressive!

    I have an idea for a video!
    Jim Zim's Great Railway Show
    Challenge: Four Different Types of Challenges for all trains!
    Challenge 1: Passenger Runs
    Objective: Trains must have a decent time from a station to another one. Time limit is 2 mins. Fastest one to do so wins.
    Challenge 2: Strength Challenge
    Objective: Trains must pull about ten cars from one end of your backyard to the other. Fastest train to do so will win!
    Challenge 3: Shunting Show
    Objective: Trains must shunt all cars in to the sidings as fast as possible. Fastest one to do so will win.
    Challenge 4: Tournament of Trains
    Objective: The top eight fastest in your collection will compete in a tournament style format. Winner of each heat will advance to the next round. In the finals, the one who crosses the finish line first, is the winner!
    I hope this will spark an idea for your next train video!
    BTW my favorite train in your collection is your BNSF SD70 9370!

    I think you should get some
    HO guage trains I mean there Thomas the tank engine collection is much bigger than g scale get the Thomas starter set and remove the couplers it already has and swap them out with the ones on your small diesel

      I own one HO-scale Santa Fe locomotive. I picked it up used for $5, just because I love the way it looks and I wanted to put it on a shelf in my office. I don't own enough HO track to make a layout, though!
