He's not just a certified nerd he is KING NERD!

holy moly. love the positive energy we need more folks like that around

I'd be excited to see Jason's layout when its done because the line he models runs through my hometown of Port Hope, ON

This guy is a true model railroader he just has so mutch fun with this hobby

Jason has an extremely long epic winded saga for every average story.

Fantastic, so cool! Thank you James and Jason for a "behind the scenes" view. Very interesting!

James, totally cool video. i can't believe the great coach in the basement.

This is am excellent video. Very well done. The owner of Rapidotrains is living his dream

now i want his office. Great Scott Marty

Very interesting video, very nice, thank you James! Congratulations to Jason and crew, your models are awesome!

I concur those are genuine sounds especially the vestibule sound.

A very enjoyable video!! Thank you for sharing!!

Very enjoyable and interesting. Many times we think of our rr manufactures as being big corporations, and most are just like this one. A small family of friends building in the hobby of trains. I've been to Intermountain in Longmont, Co. and they are just as personable (minus the passenger car in the basement) Thank you and I want a Nerd shirt too!

Thanks for visiting Canada. Love the new intro to your show!

Have fun at Cedar Point. My all time favorite theme park with real working coal driven steam locomotives!

I really enjoyed the tour and train ride with the small train and the big train. it was really nice that JASON showed us around

What a great guy, so much enthusiasm. The t-shirts are spot on.

I thoroughly enjoyed it !! Thank you very much !

Revell offers a super detailed 1/24th scale model kit of the AEC Routemaster double decker bus. And there are photo etch after market parts to make it even more detailed!

Enjoyable vid Jim, good going! Jason and the Rapido team are such a cool and down to earth group. Frustrating for me is that I was visiting Canada at the same time, but my friends planned a full schedule of tourist trip visits that kept me away from Markham (grrrrrr!). I took photos and videos of my visit and will show some on the Atlas Rescue forum.

James great video , I am glad you got to meet Jason. He is a super nerd and great guy all around. Talked to him a few times at a Mississauga train store and at a local Hamilton Canadian manufacture show. Very down to earth and he loves his trains and the hobby. Companies like mth and athern should learn from this type of passion. It's not about dollers and cents it's about making something that is built well and just fantastic. I am also glad you finally made it to Canada, Toronto is an excellent city that I live just an hour drives from. Your next Canadian adventure should be riding via or the Rocky Mountainer through BC.

Wish I could work for a boss that was as nerdy, passionate and animated as Jason.

FANTASTIC great Rapido info thank you for this video.

we have a double decker buss sitting in a field here in simi valley, dunno if it is for sale, but I can find out, if he wants it. Also, if Jason could make a Yosemite Sugar Pine Railroad Shay locomotive, I would go insane!

Welcome to Canada! Great video, James!

Jason is the man. We need more Jason's in this industry.

I love this video, truly an amazing company!

At about three minutes, You all should have " Rapido Train Pass" for you visitors. Make 'em on a copy machine ! That would be Too Cool !! At 5:00 min, we have a 1963 GM Pd4106 that we cruise in. It's a one bedroom house on wheels and it gets attention Anywhere (Everywhere) we go ! Wayne Everett on KZfaq. There are two tours of it. The newer tour.

This has got to be the best video I've watched so far on your channel... Thumbs up! 👍🏼 PS a playlist on how your home layout is coming along would be really enjoyable to watch. :)

Small world, I lived most of my life in Kingston. My family is still there. I was hoping to return in a couple of years, but may put that off for a year since I live approx 5 hours from Cheyenne and I'd love to see the Big Boy completed.

Awesome tour!

Looks like a very fun time there James. Love the basement setup he has there. Bring me back a Nerd shirt XLarge.

Great video with a really wonderful guy committed to model railroading.

CSX Actually has a AC6000 #666, I think it is the only US Loco with that road number though.

I love the train myself and wishing I can get ride a real train on tracks .I own trainset but,no longer will be be able do it anymore .he's a wonderful guy man .

WoW I love the Moller Mac :) That is a very very rare computer now

Oh my gosh the crossover we never knew would happen

Excellent video! Definitely enjoyed watching it.

Amazing video James I enjoyed every bit of it! Rapido Trains are a pretty cool group!

Nice video! Nice to see behind the scenes at Rapido!

Great video man. Can't believe 3 haters thumbs downed this one. Why ??

Great video James. Thanks for posting.

Nice video! Great trip! Heading to Cedar Point, eh? We are about 3 1/2 hours southwest of there! No train car in my basement ... my basement holds my shop, and a lot of storage. No layout per se ... just some Kato Unitrack I set up to run my trains ... but ... there is a lifesize African Lion and Black Leopard in our living room! Makes for interesting photo ops and conversation! ;) Stop on by some time!

That was way cool! Jason seems like a heck of a guy and it looks like he gave you the royal treatment. They make some really nice models, I just don't model much Canadian stuff (no insult intended to our brothers in the north)

hey james , I cant believe you where in markham , that is 30 mins from me ,, tell me next time you stopping by ,, anyway , great video , wow talk about high energy , love the basement ,, we all need one of them , lol ,, he has a great layout going , did you get a chance to check out across the street , the ripleys aquarium , take in a blue jays game , oh there is so much to do right in that area ,,

James...Excellent video! Wow, it sure shows a person/persons who love their job. I can't wait to see some of their new things coming out. Maybe at TrainFest 2016 in Milwaukee?

Per Jason' Comments>>>. How about building a Pennsy Congressional /Senator (at least the Obs and Tavern Lounge )--not offered by Walthers?

It would be great to see an update on Jaysons layout lol

JUST ORDER MY SHIRT!

flat screen in the window showing a tour of scenery going by. Then you hear the bong, bong, now departing your guys version of the Space needle in Seattle.

Thanks James!

Best rolling stock "Bachmann".

Just two words - AWWWW SOMEEEEEE Thanks for sharing...

*Top Ten Best Crossover Episodes Ever*

Suprised he dont have it all built on SAY a moble home chasis so he could have it move, shake, accelerate, decelerate With sound added

What a super fun day :-)

Cool stuff, I am only a 20 minute drive form Windsor, Ontario. Take the Via Rail to Toronto, drive via the Detroit / Windsor Tunnel. "Cool Video" • Cheers from The Detroit & Mackinac Railway 🚂

Same foam we use in boats aluminum ones seem to work best.

Great video James.

Welcome to my country

What an awesome guy!

Jason Shron must be a real trip to hang out with.

Seems like a real nerd! I dig it.

500 ton hammerhead crane has a brake exactly like the train car in basement

My god he actually has a train in his basement.

I own and drive a 35 foot bus with airbrakes with no need to get any special license. not required for personal use.

Hey James great video my name is Ramone I spoke to you at train fest here in Milwaukee November 11 2017 next time your in Milwaukee I would like for you to see my n scale layout also keep up the great videos lots of great info

Want to get one of that T Shirt. Cool!

Okay James, tell me those weren't two PROTO 1000 RDC's on his desk. What? They have RDC's? Are you kidding me? NOT!

this is funny they have more t shirts then n-scale inventory

they will rent that shower as a one bedroom in Seattle for 900 a months plus power and water.

im very impressed with RAPIDO TRAINS the people r decanted ill look into the trains.

I am buying one of those T-shirts!

We finally got to see your wife. Nice

37:21 speaking of the devil. Lol.

Where can I get a model train mezuzah like that (door frame at 2:48)?

Were do we get a tee shirt that is way to kool

How do Rapido and Kato compare?

I can't believe you got hand cuffed, placed on the road. Did the cop actually tried to say you were resisting? Thats why I don't put anything in my front pockets incase I get poked and move quickly, I might get shot.

Canada!

Why does the proto paint cost more in canada despite rapido being a canadian company? Grrrr!!

God bless our Executive Vice-President

What's their policy on tours like that?
