    This was great fun! My all time favorite and, apparently, many others, is the ATCHISON TOPEKA & SANTA FE SUPERCHIEF!. I took a ride on the real one a few decades ago & never forgot the experience.Thank you!

    I love your trains!
    When I was young (I am now 65) I trained as a fireman/stoker on steam engines in Cape Town South Africa.
    I was paid a fortune at the time (the equivalent of around $1.65 a day in 1975, although our currency was then MUCH stronger, so probably around $16 a day!).
    I just loved the way the engine “breathed” and responded to every touch.
    Taking water by kicking a lever on the floor, and creating a vacuum was almost a sexual experience!
    An entire train once derailed while I was illegally driving it (my driver was sleeping) but thank The Lord it was not my fault and I had done nothing wrong (the points were badly set).
    But what an experience.
    I relay the entire episode in my book Lesson From The Sauna which you can buy for a few cents on Kindle.
    I am sure you will enjoy the one chapter called “When The Trains Roll By” which is about the derailment, and is also set in White Rock, BC Canada through which many US trains trundle every day (much to the chagrin of most Canadians).
    And me.
    But stupid Canada for selling the railway line right along the quaint beachfront to a foreign company!
    Anyway. There is nothing like the sensual experience of a steam engine as I am sure you know well.
    I can’t wait to see your trains shunt through snow in your backyard! Good luck....

    The Santa Fe Super Chief that you owned are actually EMD F7 A-B units. The F7 is a 1,500 horsepower Diesel-electric locomotive built by EMD between 1949 & 1953. A total of 2,393 cab-equipped lead A units and 1,463 cabless-booster units would be built. The 3 railroads that had the most orders of the F7 is Southern Pacific (250 A units & 220 B units), the New York Central (238 A units & 56 B units), and the Santa Fe (215 A units & 247 B units).

    Hello Jim, that was a smashing video you created.
    I love seeing your G Scale Model Locomotives running at full speed.
    I thought Thomas the Tank Engine, who is my No.1 favourite character & locomotive is going to win until Toby the Tram Engine beaten his time & that surprised me.
    As what Thomas said, "Little Engines Can Do Big Things."
    Thomas is now the fastest tank engine in your collection, beating Percy, the Porter & Swiss Locomotive.
    Onces again, a smashing video, well done Jim.

    2:46: So without further ado, let's go go go!
    First up today, a train that Jim Zim's UA-cam viewers including me really seemed to love. Jim Zim have got a lot of great comments about the Santa Fe Super Chief diesel locomotive #202 from LGB. It is a classic from an era that is long gone when passenger trains carried more passengers than airplanes.
    There are five different cameras to capture these time trails.
    A GoPro camera captures the start and finish of the time trials.
    Another GoPro camera for the waterfall fountain view before the G scale model trains head under the orange tree.
    Third GoPro camera mounted on the G scale model trains for the POV which by the way stands for Point Of View shots at ground track level.
    Fourth camera which is the cell phone camera in the garage where it captures the halfway times of the 25 of 26 G scale model trains and also the halfway sign. The halfway sign was 6 and/or 10 feet short where it really should have been.
    Back to camera number three mounted on the G scale model trains from Bachmann, LGB, MTH Electric Trains and Piko as we go through the laundry room and in to the kitchen before reaching the dining room.
    And the Dining Room Cam which is the big Canon DSLR 80D camera, which explains why the picture quality is so much better than the other cameras.
    Once the G scale model trains reach the dining room, they have the start and finish line in sight and we will see the fast and slow runs on the layout.
    Holy Cow we don't believe what we have just saw!
    Toby the #7 0-6-0 brown steam Tram Engine from Thomas and Friends manufactured by Bachmann ran the layout in 37 seconds and the halfway time of 17 seconds beating all of the G scale model trains in the race!
    You will do another race with 26 G scale analog, battery powered and DCC locomotives in your G scale model train collection sometime someday in the future!

    Enjoyed the video, Jim! Its always fun to see which locomotive in a collection is the real hot rod of the bunch! A member of the club I'm in and myself decided to pit a pair of my Scaletrains Rivet Counter ET44AC locomotives against a pair of Walthers Mainline locomotives, all dcc/sound equipped (check out the video when you get a chance) and see which pair could outrun the other. Unfortunately, with one loop being dcc and the other straight dc, it wasn't the best way to see which pair could outrun the other but it was loads of fun anyway! Take care buddy!

    Hi Jim. Hats off to you for a fun idea. Unfortunately, I don't think it settled the question of which loco was the fastest because - to use a horse racing analogy - it should have been a handicap race (do you use that expression in the US?). I wasn't a fair comparison as you had battery/DC/DCC locos and also they were of different weights. It is beyond my small brain to come up with a method of handicapping, but it would have been nice to see one.

      Thanks! I consider it a matter of professionalism to do it that way, and I am always shocked when I see big-time UA-camrs who don't give it any thought at all and let ads just drop in randomly in the middle of their videos, totally interrupting the content. It is totally up to the individual video owner to decide if ads will be placed during the video, and they always have the option to specify the exact moment when ads should appear. It seems like most UA-camrs are just too lazy to take the time to do it the way I do it. I think my way makes the ads much less annoying for viewers. I'm glad you noticed that I put a little more effort in to it than most UA-camrs do!

      The Super Chief definitely has interior lighting. So does my Amtrak train.

    First responders is a GE Dash 9 modeled after a real NS tribute unit aswel as the Warbonnet. The Amtrack is a Dash 8

      On the boxes for all three of those G-scale models, they are listed as Dash 8.
      The real Norfolk Southern First Responders locomotive is actually a EMD SD60E, I believe.

      Me three.
      Although Toby the #7 0-6-0 Brown Steam Tram Engine is faster than Emily, James, Percy, Thomas the #1 0-6-0 Blue E2 Tank Engine, Winston the red track inspection car with the Lego version of Sir Topham Hatt aka The Fat Controller in the driver's seat, the White Pass and Yukon Route Railway ALCO diesel locomotive #107, the White Pass and Yukon Route Railway steam locomotive #52, the Santa Fe Railway General Electric Dash 8-40CW diesel locomotive #868, the North Pole Express Christmas steam locomotive #2 or #25, the Christmas Coca Cola steam train #1, the Valvoline steam train #49, the Santa Fe Super Chief diesel locomotive #202, the Norfolk Southern Railway Honoring Our First Responders Train #911, the Amtrak diesel locomotive #500, the Euro-German Porter #3, the Piko Clean Machine, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway steam locomotive #707, and the Swiss RhB Rhaetian Railroad steam locomotive #LD1.
      Applejack and her husband, Caramel Cobbler will be so proud of their engine friend, Toby the #7 0-6-0 Brown Steam Tram Engine from Thomas and Friends manufactured by Bachmann.
      And Jim Zim will soon have Devious Diesel and Paxton from Thomas and Friends manufactured by Bachmann in his G scale model train collection and that will make 24 G scale model trains in all!

    I think I'll try to collect Bachmann Ho scale versions of at least most of your G scale model trains and their corresponding cars. I already have Bachmann Ho scale E-Z Track pieces and an old-style power pack. I would like to have as many of your model trains as I can in Ho scale. What do you think of that idea? Like it? (I'll make videos of each one as I get them, running on a layout using just my current supply of tracks). I'll start with one of the two Santa Fe diesel locomotives. Probably the Santa Fe diesel locomotive that is similar to the White Pass diesel. I have the right cars already (mostly).
