I love all the T&F (Thomas & Friends) models.

Give your trains stats

dosent the charge get attracted to the clouds????

"Also, please ignore the burning engines."

We're also out of coffee.

"... so there is no reason for alarm. Anyway! Is there anyone on board who knows how to start two jet engines at the same time at 20,000 feet? Um 19,000 feet?"

You should also have sprite train

FAA took a leaf out of the CDC's book and redefined "engine exploding" as "just a little static electricity".

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking, I understand some of you were startled by that loud banging noise and a flash and are wondering what that was, and well, so are we.

Rich people man

Brings back memories of growing up in moses lake Washington

If I was the pilot Id probably say something completely different just for fun

Delete EVERY Single comment that calls Steam locomotive whistles as horns ONCE And for all!

Buffet is not good

Absolutely LOVE your drone views! Great video! Considering Mardi Gras for 10 year anniversary this September!

Hey Jim. Cool vid idea. Lionel have a Santa Fe super chief ready to play set. You should make a vid on it. It would be very cool.

Wait, your in washington? Im in oregon! Can i go and see ur model trains?

They don't seem to offer this cruise anymore. Was it a special trip?

This is your pilot, atleast some of you might be wondering about that loud bang noise that occurred just now and i have no idea either 💀

We booked an Alaskan cruise on Celebrity Solstice July 2025. Thank you for all the information you've provided. Enjoyed your video.

The captain should make an announcement. Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for my crazy horn action. I just love blowing the horn, and I did not mean to cause a disturbance or disruption.

Once your loco has entered the reversing loop and you have hit the button to reverse the polarity do you have to throw the manual switch allowing the loco to leave the loop please?

I wish all pilots were like this.

I feel like the g scale would be perfect for a built-in battery pack with a rechargeable USB cable. Does anyone else think that or just me

Love your video, thx so much. Do you have a video on boarding the panorama?

Where’s did you bought these train models from?

The Diesel 10 is out for revenge.

Cool trains

Hey there Zim, we miss you at the plant! As I was watching after the camera strike, I found my head tilting with the camera’s angle. Great vid, it looks like retirement is going well.

We were just on the Carnival Celebration last week for a 7-day Eastern Caribbean out of Miami. We were on a casino rate, so it was really reasonable. We really liked the ship. We stayed in an interior cabin in the Havana area on deck 8. We enjoyed the private area for Havana guests and our companions were in a Havana balcony so we hung out on their balcony as well as the lounge chairs and Havanna pool overlooking the side of the ship. We joked that they must add ice at night to that pool as it was so cold! It was fun to watch the ship leave port from the open area outside of the balconies that wrap around the front of the ship. I liked the layout of the ship, the many food options, activities, large casino, shows, etc. We found the food and restaurant service to be lacking compared to other lines we have been on. I did enjoy the Steakhouse, Italian restaurant, and of course Guy's Burgers. I did find the buffet to be lacking variety for dinner, but it was better at lunch. Aside from that I would do it again and would recommend it. We met a lot of really nice people. My wife and I do not have children, but there appeared to be plenty of activities for kids.

I'm going on a 8 day trip on May 25 on the Panorama, thanks for all the info. For all things to do on ship we are only getting off at 2 ports. This trip is to stay on ship and enjoy the cruise! Thanks, Dave & Dianne from Long Beach, CA

Thank you for sharing all of this information!

That's awesome..... I drove one of them for 10 weeks one summer

Thank you for sharing 😊

worth every penny!!!!!!

Hey Jim, i have a question: can you do a strength test with all your engines at your home please ? If yes, i think the White Pass diesel locomotive would win against the others

Thanks for the eye opening comparison

You had me interested UNTIL you mentioned Carnival. NOPE. I stopped the video after that.

Great video, Jim! I always enjoy watching your content! For our 2022 honeymoon, thanks to your advice, we booked a Havana balcony on the Vista and it was the perfect experience! Happy cruising to you!

Thanks for the great tips Jim, I agree with you. I did Icon and felt it was too expensive and too crowded with long lines everywhere. My family also did Celebration and enjoyed the cruise more than Icon since there were less crowds and shorter lines.

Jim Zim,,I so appreciate your take on cruising and value for your dollar. You also like quality and good service and fair treatment and ability to both do things, have choice, see history and shows as well as have good food and down time and like nice casual kid things as much as elegant adult things. I loved your first Panorama and her sister ship's overview and nice to hear you say you feel same way about Celebration and her class and repeating Panorama and her class. I would be happy with even older ships and have dreams of one day being the old Auntie that takes family on a cruise...I am finally getting closer to travelling more often and am so glad that as each new Carnival class comes out, you can still like the quality and think these newer classes pass well for a big family trip with plenty of choice and entertainment and kid food and activity as well as adult space and times. That cost is insane now on Royal and the size of Icon especially, dragging stuff with little wee wee ones, that is a lot of ground...thanks so much. Making money and growth is a good thing but this level currently on Royal is just too much...I will take more affordable mainstrean and premium lines and wisely choose with Carnival. I even liked the Paradise in 2009..an oldie before oldie updates...lol. Looking forward to the 2 classes you reccomend, all the new things since my Paradise and Spirit cruises, and the new Italian Carnival ones look fun too.

I love Carnival. I think most people hate it for no good reason.

I’m surprised.

I had looked into Havana but found it too expensive, so we went with MSC Yacht club.

"...but the plane is operating normally... unrelated, please assume crash position."

Have you heard about MSC Seashore and MSC World Europa. They have very good prices.

Great advice ❤ but I got adds every 3 minutes interrupting my viewing 😵‍💫

Thanks Jim!

Jim, do you recommend Celebrity for a fellow boomer??
