Hi Michael, have you tried to develop a synchronised steam with the chuff. TRS have done this

I see someone family members or decents now

@1:37 I had that catalog as a kid! I got one for my birthday around 1995, it was the Southern model. Of course, what I really wanted was the Franklin Mint Ps-4 model, but you know how elusive that thing can be! This wasn't quite it but it was close and I enjoyed it for what it was. The bell had broken off, but other than that, it's been pretty robust. I haven't run it much since I got other models but it's still on standby!

Did u get this engine from Tony’s trains because it’s pretty much the only place to get one with that livery at a lower cost expect maybe ebay

Did u fix the shay because the display track is now occupied by a old Bachmann 4-4-0

Is that a tyco model? 2:20

i bought a WM 2-8-0 at a swap meet but when i ran it it didn't work at all like it had everything but it just wouldn't move can u tell me how to fix it?

I feel like to compensate for it's low power, you could fashion a motorized piece of rolling stock to help with pulling power. At least in theory. Though it might have issues with the Shay's low max speed....

The 4-4-0 may be the most iconic, but let's not skimp on it's two sister configurations. The 2-6-0, and the 4-6-0. Both of which can also be traced to the 4-4-0 as modifications.

I live not to far from where they were built. Because of that, there are alot of Shay around, aswell as Berkshires.

I have one and like the look as well as your video,. I really enjoyed this presentation.

I purposely watched this video to note something from your 2-8-0 conversion to 2-6-2 video: My prototypes are all in my head. As long as it looks right it's prototypical for my railroad. And many scoff at it because of the fact that one engine I have spec'ed out is essentially an ACL-64 locomotive with worse teething trouble than it did set in the 1930's (technologically), the response to the British Mallard, and local (to me as it was built locally) GS-4, and other contemporary steam engines is a 4-8-6 that looks alot like a T1, diesels are few & far between, but those that exist look like a mix between a GP9, GP30, and a DB class 261, with the strongest of freight engines being a 2-8-8-4 Yellowstone, and the average steam engine type being a 2-8-2, or 2-10-0....and if y'all that was crazy, y'all should see the navy. Needless to say I don't care for the "prototype" It made the hobby insufferable, and so I choose to NOT rivet count anymore and have my own locomotives(which is actually how my fictional nation of Tarvala came to be...i wanted a 4-6-0 that was not spec'ed by any makers of the type at all, and now I have the spec's all I need is a sacrifice preferably in HO, 'cuz while I do run N scale, that scale is not to be modified, or weathered (unless from factory), to small, and to young (3rd week of October is when it turns a year old)...also welcome to the east coast. Don't come to Lima, Ohio expecting to see the ol' locomotive works, it's just a gravel lot now, and as such, is a disappointment.

You helped me make the decision to purchase a CNW 0-6-0!

Bachmann still has a complete cylinder assembly available in their parts dept. page on the website.

Great presentation! We watched the tv show as kids here in Australia but I never knew that Casey Jones was a historical figure and hero,many thanks. 👍

Bro how much fly time

Kinda wish u got the central pacific 60 livery but this one will do

incredible model work!

1:45 It’s not SO bad… my grandpa has a n scale 4-4-0 and I’m Pretty sure it’s that exact model. Or at least an older version of it.

I picked up a Proto 2000 CB&Q 0-8-0 USRA steam engine at a good price from a swap meet. New old stock.

You did say in the last video you might make a n scale layout how’s that going

Well done. The decal with the gloss looks better than expected. Almost appears to be name plate which is plausible.

He is a good man and he died on that cab of 382 he is was a brave man while the illeno central was long gone casey jones is a lengend a brave person he was the final ride on 382 cab before he died he save alot of innocent souls

This is one of my favourite locomotives as it also appears in the Wild West! The music towards the end is totally reminiscent of Two Mules for Sister Sara and Gunfight at the OK Corral.

Michael, what's your cat's name? Best of luck in New England. Keep the video's coming when you have time. I watch them while I'm running trains or working in the house.

I saw this on ebay its in my cart....video was awesome great review

Does this camera have infrared capabilities in night mode?

THIS IS SO WELL DONE I thought your models was a real train You are extremely underrated. I love this video.

Why does this guy kinda sound like cybershell

Just saw this pop up after watching the 4-4-0 video. Super excited to see how this goes.

Welcome to new england from a connectican! Yes we are all assholes but the good type. love ur content

Thanks for the update Michael. An O gauge room aswell awesome. You can run live steam on O gauge you know😁 Oh and by the way the carpet actually looks quite like grass. I fitted RC to a new engine I got. Real easy. All I did was follow what you did with the one Terry got for me so thanks for that. A video now and then will be just fine. Dont leave it too long though👍

Those LED shop lights are great. I use them in my stock room and previously had them magnetized to the ceiling in my steel storage container. So much light.

Welcome Home to the pothole state

Good to see you got there OK and settling in well. 😊👍

Glad to hear you made it safe! Take good care and I'm sure you'll gonna be okay with whatever life slides your way. I've heard Massachusetts is a very pretty state and I look forward to seeing your videos on some tourist railway,layouts, helicopters or new ways to hunt Smurfs in the near future! Be great man!

Welcome home, Michael! I hope I get to meet you someday, now that you’re in my neck of the woods!

Hey it's all good! At least you having a full time job will mean you'll earn more to spend on trains and such, you moved to a lovely state and you're back! That's all it matters! Best of luck to you in your new location and the future of this channel!!

Awesome Michael! Canada’s loss is your native country’s (re)gain. I look forward to your O shenanigans.

Not sure why but for some reason I thought you were gonna build both the o gauge layout and also a new ho layout

It was fun watching your O-scale train. What is the diameter of that track circle?

glad to know that there is another train fan in the area

Welcome home!! ***eagle screech***🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

I really like the new set-up for the HO layout! It looks so old-time with the wooden walls behind it which really fits the theme well (since it’s a heritage line!) I do think the break in the backdrop due to the window looks a little odd, but there isn’t much you can do about that since wrapping the backdrop round the window wouldn’t work I’m guessing 😂. Looking forward to seeing the O Scale Layout!!! Also, are you still building your N Scale layout? I saw you post about it on the Facebook group ages ago but haven’t seen anything since

First of all, that intro (more like first half of video) was amazing. The views, the music, *cat,* all of it was incredible. The O scale stuff looks really fun. It's been ages since I ran anything on FasTrack and I had forgotten how loud it was. Also it seems some problems never change. Your Williams 4-6-0 throws a traction tire, my 1948 Lionel 671 had one of its nickel rims come loose, same problem just with a different generation of trains. Also when I saw the thumbnail I thought this was an entirely different channel belonging to a friend of mine who I just saw today, so the "Moved to the East Coast" confused me until I realized it was actually you. Your new hairstyle makes you look almost exactly like him lol

1:40 wow a Ferromex ACE up north. What’s next CN ACE in Mexico?

Like all the new updates Shame videos won't come out very often, Would like to see more detail about that Williams by (bachmann) locomotive, And I like how on your HO layout you have a old Jupiter on the display track

oooh! i cant wait to see the new layout! but, i do have two questions! do you have any plans to expand the original HO scale layout? am just a bit curious :3 and the other is do you plan to have a place to crawl into the middle of the O scale layout, or will there be a lifting section? since i figure you probably would need either of them to get into the middle-

Many thanks for the info and resources. I have a True-Line of Canada CN U2g 4-8-4 that the headlight lead to the connector plug came loose and now I know how I'm going to fix it. I hate $600 door-stops!

I have the #721 and it’s amazing! I put a TCS T1A decoder in it and it burned out the incandescent light. What’s the easiest way to replace the bulb?
