Chris's Trains And More!
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 13 ก.พ. 2010
Hello all, This channel is about all the things that are built in my shop/train barn. Upstairs we have my train collection that I've been putting together since I was a kid. Around the late 70's. I would go around with my wagon picking up trains, that people threw in the trash every spring. Also, I built a waste oil that helps heat my shop for free!
I am working on a 1957 Chevy 2 door from the ground up.

Over priced , and the young guy there sometimes stalks like a vulture, like really after the money I've spent there
I’ve only stopped in the shop 3 times over the years, it’s a far drive for me up north!
Home Depot exclusive ! Limited edition mini mouse is 🔥. Again thanks for the beers bro cheers 🥂
@@jumpmanjunkie2 no problem! great to meet you.
I'm starting a 15 year old tmcc to ps3 rebuild. My train shop is doing the work. He said he's done them before. Need a mth smoke unit most likely, hope it turns out ok. I hope the diesel upgrade kits are avaliable? MTH parts are sold out. MTH needs to step it a bit always behind
That sounds like a great plan for the locomotive. I’m a big fan of the MTH DCS, thanks for watching!
Awesome job. Did the headlight only flash in the video
Thanks 🙏 the headlight flashes anytime the track is powered under the locomotive. Thanks for watching
How much for you to install this system at my house in Florida? Water bill is $240 a month and terrible quality. I live on a canal and asked a couple companies to do just what you’ve done and they laughed at me
I think you are a little far away for me to come and build your system, I’m in Cleveland Ohio. But wow that’s a high water bill. Is the canal fresh water? Or saltwater.
This was actually O scale well it looks like to me it was a ho scale and I know because I own O Scale stuff
It is both Ho in the front and O scale in the back. I think he did an amazing job with mixing the both together!
Great score Chris! That’s a gorgeous A-B-B-A set you got there. Congratulations on your find. Many fun years with it on the rails! Tom
Thank you this has been on my wishlist for a long time!
Great footage of the Choo Choo Barn Chris.
Thank you it was fun to see the layout. I’m glad you enjoyed the video!
I think it scared thr cat😂
Yeah Socks the car is not impressed with Minnie
Great Find!
Yes, I’ve been looking for this one for a while! Thanks for watching.
These are some great looking Engines Chris. Love the Carnival.
Thank you! And the wife loves all the rides we have some more to add when we get to that point.
Cool purchase. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
hi chris are you going to york train show,
As of right now we are not planning on going to the fall York show. We are going to be working on the barn and layout during that time.
Nice Video! Thank You👍👍🙏
Thanks for watching!!
Great video Chris!👍
Thank you!!!🙏
Great footage Chris.
Thank you! 🙏
I am envious.
It was a great show! Thanks for watching.
Nice! Nice show review. That SD 70MAC is cool, I got to run a few during my career. The live steam ride is great, too, I’ll have to check them out, for sure. An excellent video, as always.
Thank you! And I would love to have been an engineer for a locomotive! Thank you 😊
Great benefit of being a TCA member. Thanks for sharing.
No problem! I’m trying to share the hobby with h as many people as possible. Thanks for watching!
Nothing better than looking at some trains with my morning coffee
@@PainandPastries Yes, trains and coffee ☕️ the best part of waking up! Lol
Very cool! I like Menards stuff...
Yes they make some cool stuff! Thanks for watching!
My personal favorite hobby store, bar none! Well over half of my collection has come from there at this point. Excellent staff, with a wide variety of stuff, though I especially like their large selection of used equipment, something not every hobby store does!
That’s great to hear! I know if I was closer to the shop I would be there more often. Thanks for watching!
I do have a question. A few years ago, I bought an MTH 2-10-0 2.0. I ran it on conventional power, and it ran well. I bought the DCS remote controller, hooked it up n only the lights come on. I watched a vid, and they said if the battery dies, it can ruin the boards. So I opened the tender up n there isn't any electronics in there. So, do you think I can upgrade it to 3.0 from nothing?
Do you have the product number off the box? Sometimes the electronics are in the boiler. And if you’re saying it’s a 2.0 that would have the DCS boards already.
Hi, may I ask how much an up grade kit costs?
They are 225 for the upgrade kit. Thanks for watching!
Great video!
Thank you 🙏
I would Spend A Week There.
It is easy to spend a lot of time trying to see everything!
Now I Know Why You went Back And I would have done The Same.
It has been years since we went, all the boys were little back then probably 20 years ago. So we had to go back and take our time looking at all the cool things that moved! Thanks for watching!
Hole E. Cow ! 😀 👍👍👍
Yes it is 👍
I remember seeing the Choo Choo Barn in a movie called All About: Fast Trains, and one of the segments included the Choo Choo Barn, and i remember wanting to go to it when i was little. One of my favorite trains from that segment was a yellow and green locomotive pulling a train that had thomas on a flat car
I don’t think I’ve seen that movie before? I wanted to go here when I was little but my mom didn’t have the money to make the trip back then. But me and my wife have gone to some of those places I wanted too! Thanks for watching!!!
@ChrissTrainsandMore im sure if you look it up on TH-cam, you'll find it. Trust me, it's a really good movie, and thank you for adding another trip to my places i wanna go in 2024 list haha
Hi Chris, when i jog between to ID'd engines one of the two engines will not stay , instead a completely different number come up when I jog back
Wow I haven’t seen that happen before, I wonder why it would do that? I’ll seen if there is anything posted on the internet.
@@ChrissTrainsandMore ok thanks Chris. It's an old Cab 2 system but everything is latest version
fixed the issue, Jogging fine now. Somehow the loco name deleted, now that it says strausburg remote does it's job😊
@@conductorjohnmthtrains2239 Ok good to hear, I’ll try to remember that if I ever have a problem! Thanks for letting me know what was the problem!
@@ChrissTrainsandMore 🙏
Mine only blinks No single letter
I wonder if they made different versions?
Is that a MTH rail king or premier
MTH Premier
@@ChrissTrainsandMore do you own a Lionel 86’ auto parts boxcar next to MTH premier auto rack? I have the boxcars worried autoracks too small so go Lionel or atlas I assume
Looks nice
It is really nice, I might do a video for his layout!
@@ChrissTrainsandMore I would love to see that
Nice layout he has 👍 great looking trains Chris
Yes it’s really nice!
Very nice layout he has!
Yes it is!
Very cool, Chris! Thanks for sharing this glimpse of your friend’s railroad. Bill B.
Thanks Bill
Hey Chris, looks great. Never thought about re-purposing this Rail King barns. I’ve been trying to find the house in O scale. I’ve seen the 3D printed HO version. Nobody is doing it in O scale. Maybe your influence will make it happen????
Thanks 🙏 Where did you find the house in HO I haven’t seen it yet. Thanks for watching
Awesome collection from subscribers you well deserve that train collection you seem like an extraordinary guy god bless you 🙏🏻 🙏🏻 and your family 🙏🏻
@@ericwilliams2619 Thank you Eric, I try my best to show how much fun this hobby is and all the great people you can meet! Thank you for your support and encouragement! 🙏
Very nice additions here these subscribers gave to you! That was very nice of them. Btw I also have a 259 locomotive but a 259e but in the gunmetal gray scheme and the wheels are alittle different there like darker kind ones. Btw thanks for sharing all of this!
Yes there are some great people in the hobby. Thank you for your support and thanks for watching!
That was a very generous gift. I hope you'll find the time to restore everything. Those complete sets are some really unique one of a kind items to have in a colletion. It's really unfortunate that the CP Alco was painted silver, considering it's a rarer version of that model of Alco's. I would restore it back to its original color. I think the shell is molded in green plastic, and silver paint is one of the easiest paints to remove. I would try different solvents. I've had good results using isopropyl alcohol or Simple Green being careful around the original graphics. I've had some lettering reacting to the solvents while others weren't affected at all. Heat stamped lettering seems less affected. To clean and condition plastic shells I use the blue Dawn dish soap with the duck on the label and scrub with a tooth brush. For tough stains I use Bon Ami powdered cleanser avoiding any printed graphics as it will remove those also. Mister Clean Magic Eraser works similar but I prefer Bon Ami on plastic as it does not contain any abrasives like Comet does and it's easier to work into crevices. I've even used it to remove water stains on my cars windshield without scratching it. Once the shells are clean and dry I use Turtle Wax plastic restorer to bring back the color intensity and luster to like new condition replenishing the plastic molecularly rendering it less brittle. However it wont remove the scratches.
Thank you for all the info and advice I will definitely try to see if it works as I clean up some of these trains. Thanks again for your support!
Great video chris!
Thank you Mike!
That is pretty wild. There's a life size one on I-270 around Rockville, MD.
It definitely is a very cool building! Thanks for watching!
That is awesome Chris, really cool , I have the 666 Marx , you got all kind of stuff 👍 very nice collection cool jr train I would not no what to say if someone did that since I have been in hobby for a few years I have met nothing but awesome folks in hobby stores and internet, it is a great hobby with great people 👍 you have a great channel Chris it’s one of my favorites my friend you make it simple to watch 👍😎
Thank you so much for your kind words of support!
What an amazing gift you received Chris!! It’s every train lovers dream come true. Congratulations on a great train haul. I hope you consider doing videos on these beautiful trains after you do some preventative maintenance. 😃 Tom
Yes it was a great gift. Thanks for watching
This is awesome. There are a lot of great people in the model train community. Congratulations on your new additions Chris.
Thank you Corey! Yes there are many great people in the hobby just think that’s how we met!
Very nice! There are a lot of great subscribers that donate to various channels that they like. Lots of great trains, that won't take too much effort to clean and get running. You could set-up a locomotive shop scene with some of those engines, or even a scrapyard scene. Great stuff, for sure. An excellent video, as always.
Thank you 🙏 and thanks for watching!
Absolutely amazing. I too have been very fortunate to receive MANY generous gifts from my subscribers. I do my best to bring everything back to life.
I will try to get them all back to running condition! Thanks for watching.
That’s our TRAIN community Chris! Congratulations! 👍
Thanks 🙏 and thanks for watching!
Awesome chris !
Thanks Ray!
First visit to Train Station was around 1979 on a visit to Columbus. Seems they had more stock back in the day compared to my last visit in 2023. My only complaint was on the last visit no one else was in the store......but I was never even spoken to.....ODD.
It’s a great shop! I always start up a conversation with anyone in the shops I go to, some like to talk and some don’t. Thanks for watching!
