Nick, do you plan on doing a review of Run8 Version 3 and tackling all the new add ons since the last video (needles Sub)?

What simulator is this

One thing about trains. It doesn’t matter where they’re going. What matters is deciding to get on. - The Train Conductor (The Polar Express)

Nice Plan. On30 is a very neat gauge for sure. Do you have a favorite era or region for planning?

Nice song!

tbh we need a stupid parody about NYC

This route is awsome. It's somthing i have been looking for a long time. But i think all the links to download are dead. Does anywone know where it could be downloaded ?

This parody song is awesome!

Alt. title: Frank talks about the railway Toby and his siblings worked on for 10 minutes (Great video though :)

I already got the open rails train simulator man my locomotives runs smoothly on the track I got some BNSF locomotives C44-9W and ES44DC and GP40-2 and SD70ACe

Via rail still uses these

A new smoother version of Strasburg is out for Trainz

Believe it or not, but the Pennsylvanian wasn't the only passenger train that ran on this route. There were long distance trains from Chicago to New York City via Philadelphia, PA. Those being the Broadway Limited, originally ran by the Pennsylvania Railroad and later the Penn Central from 1912 to 1971 and then by Amtrak from 1971 to 1995 and the Three Rivers which ran from 1995 to 2005.

man those t1s are really getting around. Maybe itll encourage them to pick up the pace with N scale steam.

Some commuter rail Still use Bud Cars! Trimet occasionally uses them on their WES line between Wilsonville and Beaverton Oregon!

What name of the song in your intro video I really like that music

What name of the song in your intro video I really like that music

I think I might get the Run8 Train Simulator I know is a cool game to run it pretending to be a Engineer and Conductor and dispatcher and maintenance and do railfanning

There is one thing that I would do if o donate a QJ 2-10-2 locomotive to Oregon, not only would I Americanize it, I would also convert the QJ Locomotive from a Coal Burning Fuel to an Oil Burning Fuel.

Quick question- where is the Virginian Trainmaster from?

This is Probably *THE GREATEST* Radioactive Parody I have seen.

I really love trains. I am 14 years old, turning 15 in less than a month. I first watched this video like a year or two ago, and i love the Hi-Levels. When i first watched this, I absolutely loved the music used in the video, specifically Count Basie's Timestream. My father got me a CD to surprise me with the music i really liked, and we almost always listen to it in the car. Today, I went to my local model train store, Ready to Roll trains, and picked up a hi level coach dorm in Amtrak phase III, as well as an Amtrak baggage car in phase III. I'm so happy that I have my own little Hi-Level with me now, and that I found out of this video in the first place. :D

This unexpectedly went hard, i'm downloading this shit!

I miss the At The Railyard reviews! The music in this video is 🔥 what are the tracks/artist(s)?

Fascinating conversation

I wish I could go visit and find me a nice decent place in England to live that's close to a tramway branch line railroad. I kinda feel like if I had the incredible talent to build me a steam tram locomotive to own all for myself, I could perhaps work as a content railroader. So many things to discover out there that I want to discover, learn and experience than the shit I come across to living in America that doesn't exactly have as much to bare, other than the multiculturalisms of people from different parts of the real world that come here to live in peace, civility, and prosperous livelihood.

This looks like an interesting trackplan. My own layout would have under/over track by necessity so this was a nice visualisation of what that'd look like

as someone who found out about the East Broad Top through the Pentrex video, which Drui narrated, it created a very powerful moment in my life, his name synonymous with my love of the railroad, and the reason why all these years later, i still find myself fascinated by the railroad and it's history, to the point where it's an obsessions', and i know way to much about the history of one railroad, than any one person should unless they're a historian on the subject.

I keep coming back to this for the California March. Such an amazing piece that I wish was posted somewhere for easy listening.

You did a fantastic job adding classical music Nick. By the way, I noticed this Brake-van from Thomas and Friends at 7:52 since I recognized the conductor inside. Plus, these steam trams and shunter diesel are indeed like Mavis and Toby.

You should visit the Halton County Radial Railway in Milton, Ontario. They have interurban car 8 in running condition and L2. L1 is also fully preserved in a museum in St Thomas, Ontario.

Very nice video !

707 my beloved (has a great RS3L)

beemer!

I was there it was awesome

Lot's of fun , don't miss it 😂😊

The question of an under appreciated aspect of railroading. I think lubricants and lubricant distribution systems are not flashy but nothing runs for long without it. I watched a video of a steam locomotive cold start which showed the lubrication steps. Fascinating.

I love learning history. It's a shame so many (especially today's youth) don't!

Very interesting little line! Not far from me, there used to be a railway called the portage and lake of bays railway. It was one of the shortest in the world, and essentially just hauled passengers and freight up a hill between two lakes. Nowadays, there’s a little heritage line near where it used to be, and I’m going to run the train there for a day this summer.

This is a great route. Very beautiful and very worth it.

Of courses the firebox it is the sun

Hey Nick. This episode is neat! Here's the answer to my question: One piece of railroad history that's often overlooked is railroads within a local area (specifically the steam era), whether shortline, regional, logging, narrow gauge, etc. These railroads hold a unique spot in railroad history as a backdown of sorts in areas of the country that were either less known or in rural locations, often only known to their locals. To me, they give esthetic vibes (so to speak) in ways that represent railroads in a more slow, picturesque way, while in other cases, they show the perseverance of railroads working in tough environments like rocky terrain, dangerous weather, or harsh deserts. While many of these railroads' histories are well preserved in some form, like the Buffalo Creek & Gauley or West Side Lumber Co., others aren't so lucky; either barely preserved or haven't been preserved at all, or have struggled to keep their history strong in preservation in some fashion. Often overlooked by other railroads like class 1s, these railroads represent their own unique history, stories, people, equipment, or whatever it may be that have shown they can function or be just as well known as (or better) than bigger and more famous railroads.

awesome video thanks sharing i only use jointed rail on my layouts

The FJ&G in OR is actually 3 seperate versions of the route now, V1 based in the 50s, V2 based in 1979 and 1980, and a combined version with an updated ACN (another Paul Charland route) covering Conrail's operations on the FJ&G in 77.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO 18 WHEELS OF STEEL MUSIC LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Hey the hollette coal loaders

Very interesting. I believe my model railroad club has a copy of the very same book you showed at the beginning.

That route looks really great, now I want it since I'm a sucker for SP

Is there anywhere I could find a recording of the virtual tour?

I would have loved to see TT in the theater. Never had the chance.
