Magnificent catches aboard the model steam locomotive and see the line through the dark, i like it 5 stars. Thumbs up. Hearing that amazing puffing and chuffing is absolutely crazy. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, i just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
@@kylehc15 that would be a cool ride! In powder snow it would be a blast! The winters get pretty cold and snow can harden to ice so it can be difficult to break through without heavy power. And then the heavy power derails, making for a long day!
Hi from New Zealand . Just love watching the night rides, looks spooky when you're running down a single line through the trees . Love the sound of the train Bogges running over the diamond crossings and turnouts, do you have any double slip crossings on the different lines or right of way.? How many kilometers or miles of track are there?. I always find it interesting to be involved or see others working on their model railways at night and waking up the next morning to see what's changed on the modal railway. Are any of the track side buildings lighted either way looks cool . Neil Dimond songs remind me of the same from the early 70s .
I spent 33 years working for Amtrak out of Salt Lake City. Most of the time it was as a night. So this makes me feel right at home. I’ve been wanting to go to Train Mountain, hope to meet up with you one day.
That would be great to see you there. This place attracts members from all over the country who visit when their schedules allow. We make a few visits a year and stay several days in a row to make the long trip worthwhile. We have already scheduled time for the big 2025 Triennial: June 21st (Saturday) thru June 29th (Sunday). If you see the Green Goose or the little 0-4-2T steamer in the yard, we are there!
G'day, I was at train mountain for the 2006 trianual meet with my Dad and a friend of ours Peter Laws and his model of an Australian XPT loco. I love watching these videos as they all seem to tigger some deep memory of my time there. I remember watching the tour part one and thinking to myself "damn, I can remember walking up that hill and I felt like I was going to pass out" closely followed by your commentary saying "thats cardiac hill". Its amazing to see the what's changed and whats the same. I only hope you'll keep uploading more of these videos!
@@TJJIM thanks! I'll keep taking video each time we go. That hill really got us in shape during the last triennial. We camped down in the meadow and hiked up there many times a day. By the last day it was no big deal.
@@ccootsona I feel like it's the elevation that catches visitors off their guard 😂 I'm looking forward to more videos! I'll be waiting for the 2.5 hour live steam tour all the way out to m&n corner and back to the yard! Just kidding haha, although I would definitely watch that whole video hahaha
Yes, it always takes me a day to acclimate to the 4200 foot elevation and low humidity. I might get the citrate to take the steamer out past M&M to Hope and back at triennial!
@@LordPhobos6502 thank you! I've just been using my iPhone 11 to film everything. I haven't yet found a shock mount for the phone that's resistant to all the movement on the train so I've just been holding it in one hand which gets a little tiresome.
This is a video that I like. A night trip is also very nice.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks for the kind remarks. I enjoy making the videos and hopefully it will inspire other people to dive into their hobbies too.
They also need a B&O Color Position Light with the full complement of sub lights.
I would bet the signal guys could install it if someone donated such a signal.
I'd have one installed if I had one!
id love to go when its snowing out and you got a steam loco going with the smoke man it be one hell of a ride

OMG, that was so cool. Thanks for posting it

Great video :D
...What camera do you use for filming while driving?

This is really great!
If you increase the playback speed to ×2, it feels more like a high-er speed train, and the curves are more treacherous!😂👍
Cool idea!
