Star Trek Set - Ticonderoga New York

- Опубліковано 24 лис 2017
- The Star Trek Original Set Tour is a recreation of the original 1960s set from Studio 9 where the original series was filmed. James Cawley the Star Trek super fan and Elvis Tribute Artist has been working on this over the last twenty years. But it was only opened a couple of years ago as a museum and attraction. They have loads of original props from the show and the feeling you get from being on this set is like being inside the show. I spent a month on the road filming various roadside attraction in 15 states, in 2017 and this one was the best! I recommend you visit this place in Ticonderoga New York. They also have an annual convention called: Trekonderoga!

Just try to imagine how many Trekkers now have a visit to this set on their 'bucket list'. If I am ever in that area, I will be sure to get there and see it for myself. Thank you, James!
Trekonderoga is well worth the trip and I recommend going there.
I am definitely visiting..we can do a star trek fan movie
This is totally worth the trip...I'm thinking some short fan made trek films 🎥
If you are ever around Lake George, I think its about 1.5 hours north.
Wonderful place! Went there this past December to see William Shatner. Got my picture with him in the Captain's chair, a once in a lifetime experience I'll never forget! The tour itself was incredible! The tour guides very informative with great stories to tell. Got my picture sitting in the Captain's chair. One story told to me by a tour guide, at 4:04 in the video, the gold box is an original prop that William Shatner took home with him after the series ended. He then gave it as a gift to the president of his fan club. Years later she passed away and her daughter put it up for auction. James Cawley bought it from her and put it back in Kirk's quarters. Shatner was shocked to see it again during one of his visits to the museum. I love those kind of behind the scene stories!
Star Trek fan since the 60s/70s as a kid and still is today. 🖖
It is on my wish list. Hopefully soon. "Beam me up Scotty"
Extraordinary replicas of original sets. The detail is perfect.
For sure. Very cool.
Shatner has said so as well. He's said the attention to detail was extraordinary.
I’ll be there from 15 to 17 July 2022, my birthday weekend! A gift from my wife and kids!!!!! Can’t wait!!!!!!🖖🏾
Absolutely stunning !!! ...... Super gd job is a understatement !!!!!! I gotta go there !!!! 🔭😁
You’ve got to boldly go there!
This is awesome...I have to visit...we can come and do a star trek fan movie 🎥
I'm old enough to remember watching Star Trek as a kid when the episodes were first played on tv.
It was very exciting times then with the U.S. starting to put men into space and then going to the moon.
We see "high technology" in our everyday lives now,but back in the early sixties,there wasn't any hi-tech.Just in our imaginations.
To be a child of the sixties and see all that hi-tech on Star Trek was just wonderful.
I watched Star Trek re-runs in the early 1980s. Back the the only high tech things we had was the one computer in the back of each classroom. It wasn't until the mid to late 90s with discman, digital cameras, scanners and everyone owning their own computer at home that we started to see the Star Trek future.
God, what I wouldn't have done to have that down the street from me when I was 12 years old! Sure beats mom's kitchen and our 1971 Tempest station-wagon for fantasizing! LOL!
I was always fascinated by the corridors. Wicked. And those communication devices, futuristic cell phones I now call them. Must admit though the seats are more 60's than futuristic. 😆
I saw my very first Star Trek episode while temporarily station at Subic Bay PhiI. My permanent duty station was the U.S.S. Ticonderoga CVA-14. It works for me.
Thanks for putting up this video. I'm hoping that I can get on up to Ticonderoga next year and see the tour. There was alot of great trivia in that video too that I had never heard before.
Loved the tour. Just go. Make it so.
This is INCREDIBLE!!!!!
awesome!
Would love to see that, but kinda unlikely I'll get to NY in the near future. Thanks for the video. Lots of fun Trek memories.
Amazing work and dedication on display. Long may it last.
I was late to the Trek world (age 23) but have been a fan ever since!!! The original series and movies are the only ones I care about. 'Can't wait to visit this place!!!
Awesome. I have been to the full size set at The Neutral Zone in Kingsland Ga. (Where they shot Star Trek Continues) and it was awesome as well.
A very nicely put together video sir. Job well done.
The Trouble with Tribbles. LOL
Wow what a work of art 🥰 I'm still a regular watcher of TOS as well as TNG and the rest. I just watched the episode Arena with the Gorn earlier today lol
Wow! This is awesome
wow this is awesome!!
Been there, very nice.
Incredible! If I was an American I'd be seeing that when we can travel again. I did get to see the recreated Bridge set for the TNG episode "Relics" when I was a teenager, and I did get to sit in THAT chair though!
Very cool place will have to go there one day soon I have two things to say one they should’ve never destroyed the original sets to any of the Star Trek series they should’ve never thrown the enterprise outback to get almost destroyed second all the original Star Trek ship models should be at this place here that would be a good home for all of them
Gotta go. So cool.
Amazing
OMG! Nomad! Annnnnnn-nallllll-lyzzzzzzze" LOL!
The actual one you saw on screen!
@@koolbuildings7916 I suspected that!
Sterrrrrrrrr-i-liiiiiiiiiize!!! I always loved how even in my black and white TV, I could still make out the cable it was riding on.
@@eyecomeinpeace2707 NO! When Kirk and Spock sent him into deep space (just before he blew up) he was saying "Analyze" after Kirk exposed his flaws and imperfection. Although he did sayhis function was to 'sterilize imperfection".
I’m headed here on August 14th & 15th , and cannot wait too , im super excited !
If you're excited now imagine how excited you'll be when you get inside?
I'd love to visit there.
I have been up there twice. A short two hour drive for me. Plan on going again.
It was a 6-7 hour drive for me and it was worth it.
Cool! I would love to visit from the UK
Rich Sutty do you even know where this is!? Haha
Amazing place, wow
It's More Amazing in person.
@@koolbuildings7916 I bet, thanks for making the video
I have a sneaky feeling there's a room with a "Dilithium Crystal chamber" your not showing us. Lol o7 Amazing work!
Very cool...
BBC has forgotten these shows from America made it what it once was,today its gone PC correct,they simply forgot its a visual media radio never died they just switched to Television,cheaper to talk than be creative,so sad.
I am going to go one day
Very good reproduction.
Soooo, I didn’t see the Targeting Scanner that Mr. Sulu used in episode “Friday’s Child” of Season 2. Probably the coolest prop ever on the bridge of the StarShip Enterprise. Mr. Sulu was such a cool dude on the show. So until I see that targeting scanner I’ll give you a B+ on your efforts. 😂
Man I'd love to visit, as a kid watching ST in reruns in the early seventies it would be like a dream come true to see it all up close in person. Watching it as a kid I was fascinated by the texture of the things I saw. I wanted to touch the uniform shirts to see what they felt like, and the sheets in Ebay < EDIT Ebay? So funny, sorry Sick Bay, damn that's too funny, might as well leave the error there. Geez what an idiot. I wanted to hold a communicator, I was obsessed with that gold flip top. I wanted to touch the dylithium crystals, and the computer chips they used that were in different colors. I just loved all the colors, the uniform colors, the purple and green lighting, the caves and rocks that always had sparkles, all of it, I'd pay extra cash to be able to touch a few of those things, just to finally know what they were really like.
One time I did get to touch the material for the uniform shirts and the story is crazy. I was doing some things at Paramount in CA and was in the prop shop for the Next Generation, and met the costume guy and believe it or not, he had the original rolls of blue/red/and what I thought was gold material, in actuality it was more like a lime green or something, but not gold at all, that blew my mind. Apparently it was the lighting that made it look gold, or at least that's what I've read, who knows. Turns out that they were clearing out all kinds of things and throwing them out, when he came across one roll but didn't get it, but then he found the other rolls and he realized what they were and asked if he could have them and they said yes, so they were under his work bench and I got to see them, touch them, etc. At the time he would make a shirt out of the material for a good bit of cash but he stopped because he didn't want to exhaust what he had, so he stopped. And the material was like a triple thread polyester material, a bit course, with a sort of plastic kind of feel to the touch. I'll never forget how exciting it was to see that and touch it, another dream come true.
those was the days
I can only imagine the DeJa vu of original series actors visiting that set.
Wow
Ohh my
Pretty cool. I like those props from 'The Experience'. Anyone know who but the ships from the star trek experience?
The recreations of the props used on the original "Star Trek" TV series shown in this videoclip of the recreation of the original Enterprise sets in Ticonderoga, NY contain I think one error. The two long-handled medical devices (both the long version and the shorter-length version) that heal wounds without using sutures (which are pictured in Stephen E. Whitfield's "The Making Of Star Trek" book) are shown in this videoclip as having red-colored handles whereas in the original TV series' episodes, I think that they actually had grey-colored or light blue -colored handles.
Is this set still around?, I would like to visit it, maybe this summer.
Yes it'd open just go to their website.
Still the best business above all fans, dreaming about the future, what about recycling these Star Trek fantasies? Just like a space crew stocked in a time loop, freezed in that awesome golden vintage best years of boldly Dreams beyond any limit, for some reasons we never grow old, like kids we need fairytales to comfort us, to help us imagine another parallel universe, another humankind possible
Sounds like Christian Slater was narrating...
"We own the building " famous last words after a property tax auction.
I want a life size NOMAD ! Please !
I wonder how long it took to build all this. It sure be nice to actually be there.
How much do you want to bet that nobody will ever made a recreation of the Star Trek Discovery set - even in CGI.
Nor the Picard set either. I'm looking forward to visiting here again once they get the next gen set finished.
We need an episode with Daleks on the bridge.
I'm going. But I'm going to need to kennel my dog in town for a few hours.
Interesting fact Star Trek was one the highest rating tv shows when it was cancelled but from the way the measured ratings in those days they didnt take into account the age demographics for the ratings.
I've heard the reason that it was cancelled is that people ignored the commercials and would instead talk about the situation so it was a ratings failure in that people ignored the commercial breaks entirely.
@@richardwicks4190 no it wasnt a ratings failure it was just in those days they didnt have a way to measure the metrics. It rated really well with younger people. Through the roof in fact. But thank god it was cancelled the writing was getting really campy.
@@purefoldnz3070 The 3rd season was an attempt to reduce costs which was reducing the cost of the writers and directors as well. I'm sure Nimoy, Shatner, and Kelly were also demanding larger salaries as well.
That's the irony of today, they don't even bother to get competent writers.
They could take the story lines from the 1970's animated series and make a good series with only some minor modifications.
The story lines today are crap, and beyond that the future is bleak, violent and unpleasant. Actors are adequate, direction is adequate, the special effects are phenomenal, but the writing is terrible.
It's a pity that they throw so much money into this soup to have one group that is so incompetent, so terrible, they ruin the entire dish.
That's not to say that this franchise hasn't been going down hill in a while. I didn't find any of the next generation films worth watching. The writing for those was lackluster at best.
@@richardwicks4190 Star Trek the original series ended on one of the worst episodes of Trek period. Season 3 was Lost and Space territory. More low brow and stupid monster of the week stories.
@@richardwicks4190 First how could they know if anyone was ignoring the commercials nothing on my tv told if I was or was not. Second.. the only way they could tell what people were watching were the booklets sent out to have you fill in day by day what it was you were watching and it only took ONE person in a families answer not all who were watching I know I filled two of these books out a few years apart, So unless they went by mail or some other way How did the studio know just how many people were watching any show.. Oh the book there were those who just never answered.
I’d love to come and tour the set one day. How much does the tour cost?
Was 20 bucks in 2017 when I went.
If i win the lotto i think i will do Voyage to the bottom of the Sea across the street from these guys in a giant CGI Green screen swimming pool 😆
Wonder how many completely miss the FORT! (Though, they are becoming more and more restrictive on what video you can take... as of people who see this video won’t wanna see it LIVE!?!)
Nothing compares to seeing it live and sitting in the captains chair.
1:36 You didn't cover up the brand name of the TV set? Kinda pulls you out of the illusion doesn't it? : ) Incredible recreation overall. Quite outstanding.
Awesome place...eerie how it makes one feel
OK folks, here's where we separate the men from the boys! At 3:30 (props on shelves - middle shelf, far left) what was the thing that looks like a turkey baster (silver/gray/red) used for & in which episode & by whom? LOL!
It's a laser beacon, used by Lt. Jaeger in ''The Squire of Gothos'.
@@kevinthrasher4788 NO! It was the laser tool Kirk was using to repair the viewing screen in the auxiliary control room (assisted by Lt. Washburn) on the Constellation in "The Doomsday Machine". WAIT! Actually, you are RIGHT too. Although technically it was Mr. Lasalle in the "Squire of Gothos" that used the same prop. GREAT CATCH! I learned something today! :)
The nice thing about Star Trek is that the shows relied more on the characters and the acting than special effects... The sci-fi movies these days are 95% special effects with very little acting...
Closer to original set
Uh of course it is. It was made to look exactly like it. Lol
is there a tng version of this somewhere in existence?
James the guy that built this worked on the tng set in the 90s. He bought the building next to this place and is in the process of building a replica of the tng set there. I'll be there on opening day when he builds the bridge.
I bet you were cracking out there... the video ended so abruptly. he was able to get ahold of a lot of gems there.
As you know I usually interview. In this case that was a "NO NO" . So I did the best I could. This was the coolest place I've seen in years!
Kool Buildings .... I went to the star trek experience in Vegas years ago. I still have a bottle of blood wine front quarks. Suprised he would not do an interview to promote the place. He is dedicated.
I believe thos is the set they filmed the fan series Stae Trek New Voyages I believe. There is another replica in Georga i think. That was built for Star Trek Continues that is also very accurate and to be honest i liked ST Continues a little better in there scripts and how it ended right up to the point of ST The Motion Picture.
Yes, Kingsland, GA. The tours there are free on selected dates.
@ghost307 oh that's cool. Thanks for the info
Photon torpedoes are _definitely_ not a friend of the Enterprise's saucer section. Or the Enterprise A's, come to think of it.
Just curious. I recognize the voice, or at least the commentator has a very similar voice and intonation, Is the name, by any chance, Miles?
The white dropped ceiling tiles and fluorescent lights kind of takes away from it a bit. It just screams 'this is an old strip mall'. They should at least switch to black ceiling tiles. Also, cover up the Emerson TV logo.
Those things they will change eventually. It has to do with costs. It's not really a high traffic tourist attraction at the moment.
@@koolbuildings7916 I understand.
I was there about a week ago and they have added frames to the TVs (at least 2 of the 3 in sickbay) to hide the fact that they are just TVs. They fit pretty seamlessly into the sets now. I also have to say that when you're there the drop ceilings kind of just fade away and aren't nearly as noticeable as when you're looking at pictures and videos.
I think the thing to remember is that they're trying to balance "being on the Enterprise" with "being on Stage 9 at Desilu Studios." If you were walking Stage 9, the sets didn't have ceilings and you would see stage lights. I think they do a pretty good job of balancing the two, but I agree that it doesn't always translate as well through photos.
Damn it Jim, Where the hell is the bathroom?
The tour is $22???
The Star Trek set tours in Kingsland, Georgia are free on selected dates.
They need money to keep it running. Since $22 dollars is a problem for a cheapskate like you just go to Georgia on your selected date. Cheapskate.
How did the set wind up in upstate N.Y.?
It's obviously a reproduction but there are items from the show as you can see in the Museum portion.
Where are the space hippies? :-)
And nowwwww...to Edennnnnn!
Are yall still there
How muchbis the tour?
The sign at about 3:00 says $22, but the same Star trek set tour in Kingsland, GA is free on selected days.
It it still there?
Very interesting, but not one of your best vids, I like the regular format better as a far as sound and presentation goes.
Go to red alert,cetas three has been destroyed!
Is this the original set?
The original set was destroyed. This is the most accurate reproduction.
@@koolbuildings7916 thank you,it’s amazing anyway
There are original props throughout including costumes. All behind glass.
@@koolbuildings7916 awesome!
This is great, but could it possibly be in a more remote location?
For the people who go out this way to see Ft Ticonderoga year after year It can not be that remote beside get out of the city and breath good country air it may do you some good. And seeing wild life in their home is a good thing too.
There's another one in Kingsland, GA.
Advertising is a little misleading. It's not actually a tour of the original series sets but a tour of a recreation of the original series sets. The original sets themselves were destroyed shortly after the show was cancelled.

Your zooms are too quick.
Make some new movies
NOT the original sets. A replica.
There are tons of original props. The original set was trashed after production.
Crappy audio.
It was either that or nothing.
@@koolbuildings7916 - I'll go with "that". Thanks. (^_^(
Kingsland is better
All good until Bernie, The Commie, Sanders ad. I mean, WTF.
I was just there and they told us not to take any videos
