That little boy will treasure that locomotive for the rest of his life.
He is quite definately a train boy!
Sir, that is one of the classiest things I have seen in a long time. You made that young man's day, and I am sure for many years to come. I wish you and your family many blessing in return. Cheers.
That young man will never forget your generosity -- what a wonderful way to spread the word to the next generation!
It was so much fun to give this train to such a deserving young man. Was a great day and our hobby will be in great hands! Thank you Stephen!!
It's not just all the young folks that love model trains. I'm 62yrs old and have always loved them since my father got me playing with trains when I was just a child. The magic of model trains never disappears. Just recently getting back to someone I love and started setting up the old train track to enjoy while I still can. I know my father is smiling down on me from Heaven.
You are so right. The magic never disappears. Thank you @MsKinnara!
Yup my grandfather got my dad into them and my father got me into them my father passed 11-22-23 a marine 1st battalion 7th marines alfa company miss you old man
Gotta admit that grabbed my emotions. That was real class Chris, you’re an honorable gent to have done that for that little guy. And yeah, he’ll never forget you!!! A good deed well done that might actually spur other folks with immense collections to pass on some of their pieces and promote the hobby. We should see ourselves as stewards of a hobby and temporary holders of model, works of art. It’s great to have fun with your collection but feels great to share that and see the enjoyment grow in others.
What a great way to bring a grizzly bear like me to tears…. GREAT JOB RBP!!!!! This is the way to keep the youth into our hobby.
Thats my Grandson Christian. He's one of your biggest fans, watches you EVERYDAY!! This has been a wonderful Hobby for him. I'm sure he will remember this for the rest of his life! Thank You for your generosity. Hopefully more children will enjoy this incredible hobby, Thanks to You!
You have an amazing family John! Something to be proud of for sure. It was a pleasure to meet them!
❤️😭 this truly touched my heart.
That's very nice of you Chris. I'm sure Christian will remember this forever. Thank you Chris for all that you've done and continue to do for our community.
Such a great video in every way. I’m glad to see more and more people enjoying the hobby.
What a fantastic gesture, Chris!! There's been a lot of comments lately in some O gauge groups about growing the hobby for the next generation. That was certainly one big step in the right direction!
Amazing video I love seeing this kinda stuff and I want to give you the role of The Mrbeast of Model Trains!
Oh wow he is. I guess you could call him Mr. Steam XD
I would have to give away 10,000 trains to be Mrbeast level! But thank you for this comment @FoxyNight45! Made my day :)
Chris, fantastic give-away. I'm sure that young man will remember you and this moment for his entire life..
What a great idea, he will never forget this day for the rest of his life
That was nice to see how you gave him the Triplex yet I never saw the Triplex O scale Version in person but I’m pretty sure it’s big because I saw a O scale SD70ACE and it was big
Lucky guy. I wish i was there. Ur the best. Ur very kind for doing that. Ur so kind hearted. Keep being awesome 😎
Hopefully we can meet at a future show @loona! Thank you!
GOOD ON YOU MY FRIEND, IM SO HAPPY TO SEE A YOUNG CHILD GET A TRAIN,MY YEAR OLD GRANDSON LOVES MY TRAINS AND I LET HIM HAVE AT IT AN WILL NEVER TELL HIM NO, GOD BLESS YOU FOR SPREADING THE LOVE RBP
Thank you @jerzeydolphins! Those memories with your grandson are precious!
So wholesome. That would so be my reaction if I got something like that as a kid. I wish the hobby wasn't so expensive, I really want to get into 0 Guage now that I'm older but it's just not cheap sadly
That kid’s reaction was incredible. Hopefully we have a new Hobbyist in the making. Thanks Chris and Sid.
That was incredible generous of you and something that family will never forget.
Way to go Chris, what a tremendous gift for that young man and family! He’s now into model trains for life!!! It will come back to you many times over!!!!!
That smile on the kids face is what makes the hobby worth being in. Getting kids to experience trains is the only way that defunct railroad's legacies will live on. You went the extra mile and likely made that kid love steam engines for the rest of their life. 👍
Awesome Chris!!! What a phenomenal gesture… This boy will never forget… Thanks for being a good role model for these kids…
Fantastic. I love that. I totally agree that there has to be new ways to bring kids into the hobby. Although that is a big investment on your part it was very generous of You. Hope to meet up with you over the summer when I’m in your area. Keep up the great job in promoting our hobby. 👍
We definitely need to meet up when you are in town! Looking forward to it.
Reminds me of how i almost convinced my parents to get me an HO scale 611 at a train show, the seller was no longer into model railroading and i wanted to have a piece of VA with me all the way in NY, he had a pretty decent price for it however my brother decided he wanted something more expensive that was LEGO so i didn’t get it…
Oh no! I am sure you will find the 611 again one day. Lot's of them out there! Thanks for watching @Voidthe3F
@@RBPTrains i hope i find it in HO scale agin, then i can truly have matching scenery! And your videos are the BEST, have a good day/night RBP!
I saw this on IG. Such a nice thing to do and that kid will never forget what you did. A truly nice guy in a hobby that many times is filled with stuffy old men.
What a great gift! It was fun to meet you and the other Chris and George at the York show. Hoping you (and your subscribers) can help me with the 'custom paint guy'? Last name starts with H? Or whomever you (all) recommend. Thanks!
You have a lot of class Chris! That kid will never forget.
Wow Guy! Beautiful gesture and gift. Not gonna lie to ya … got a little tear in the eye. Very well done .
Wonderful thing to do Brothrtman!!😊😊
That’s a man who will go out of his way to brighten someone’s day. Keep up the good work.
The young men will never forget what you did what a wonderful thing to do 🎉
That's so awesome, the young man is so excited! Love his expression
Respect to you RBP on gifting the kid the train. It’s good to help people in life whether from a gift to a smile or a helping hand. The kid was so happy as I think we all are.
Way to go Chris! I can remember when I was that age when I spent hours just looking around in my local hobby shop just wishing that I had the money to purchase some of the Lionel trains that were on the shelves, I usually just ended up leaving with a fifty-cent matchbox car or truck. You really made that young man's day.
Chris, what a wonderfully generous thing for you to do! And the look on young Mr. Christian's face just said it all despite his shyness at meeting a TH-cam celebrity like yourself. In addition to the Triplex you've given him a memory he'll treasure for the rest of his life which can be another 75 years or more.
Almost brings me to tears! 😂
Thanks for sharing this with us!
You just made that young man's day. I wish the hobby wasn't so expensive so more people could enjoy it.
Thank you Steve!
I've seen many wonderful things in my life. And at my older age, I'm delighted to see more. I must say, my eyes filled up watching. You're a "good 'ol boy" Chris.....thank you ! 👍
Thank you James! Christian was so deserving of this train. It was a special memory for sure.
Chris that video have you giving that steam engine to that little boy and his father was simply heart touching. You are such a great person with such a big heart and such a great personality. You make model train collecting so interesting and fun for everyone. Chris you are a very special person. I am so glad that I was able to find your videos many months ago and I am a regular subscriber and fan of yours. Thank you Chris for showing everyone how to get the younger generation involved in this hobby. I wish that we were neighbors. You are a very special person. You made that little boys day and the memory he will always have of you and what you did for him. Your kindness will be rewarded. You are one special guy. 👍🙂
Chris, the look on that young boy's face was priceless. So generous of you...remember when you give in such a positive manner it always comes back to you. Chris, in my humble opinion you're the #1 train youtuber!!
Thank you so much Daniel! I am grateful to you and everyone who has been supporting this channel and keeping the energy alive!
Congratulations to that kid, i hope he has a good time with the triplex 👍
I have been getting updates since the show and it he has been running it non-stop, haha! Was so awesome to see his excitement. Thank you @SteamIsKing Productions!!!
Aw…… I bet he keeps running it because of what you did during that moment. He was probably so touched and can’t stop thinking about it, I know I was certainly touched. My heart is so full and I can’t even put it into words right now
Random acts of kindness make the world a better place. Thank you.
Boy I was smiling as much as he was when setting the whistle off. You can see how much he is going to enjoy that engine for years to come and what a great piece and hobby for father and son to enjoy together too!
Chris, what a fabulous idea! We definitely need the younger generation to carry forth in this awesome hobby! James
Absolutely fantastic, Chris! Christian will remember this forever. 👏👏👏
Very Cool! Great job Chris! Now that's a random act of kindness! Proud to know you.
This means so much coming from you Scott! Thank you for all you do for this great industry!
He looked so happy and excited when it was powered on the test track, that was very cool of you Chris to give him one of your engines. Great video
Nothing short of AWESOME, Chris!
Thank you Nicholas!!
A great story and wonderful gift, thanks Chris for sharing, that made my day!
Wow Chris that was very nice of you to give someone who watches you and that was so sweet to of you to give him the Virginian triplex although I am a little sad and disappointed that you gave it away it was one of the most rarest engines in your collection and I hope you get another triplex but are gonna get the same Virginian triplex or the Erie triplex?
This is such a great heart warming moment. This is one of the best train video that I’ve watched in a long time. Wait a go chris! 🙏🏻🚂
This is really cool and nice of you Chris to do this.
That's awesome Chris, that's what's all about giving to others and sharing this amazing hobby.
You guys are so awesome! Wow it warned my heart and gave me chills to watch him open that box. You guys are doing great things in the train world.
Hey where can I get a "eat sleep train repeat" shirt?
That's awesome Chris! Way to keep the younger generation engaged in the hobby! He is never going to forget this. What would be great to see is 15 or 20 years from now, him running this on his layout with you there to visit, and of course, record it.
That's fantastic Chris. You just created a lifelong enthusiast. Good Job.
Thank you Jeffrey!
That's awesome, Chris. You made his day. In fact, maybe his year
P.S. I also sent my video for the RBP and freinds video. Whether I make it in or not. I Can't wait to see everybody's layout
Thanks @D&H 2906 PRODUCTIONS! I will be looking at for your video when I review them in the next few weeks. Thanks for sending your video!
@RBP Trains no problem, Chris. My email begins with choochoo. It's kinda childish 😆.
But for now. Keep running and have fun running trains
Katy boy. Sorry I missed you. Chris said you were at lunch. Dang it.
Nicely done. That kid was tickled &&&$$@@ less. Your generosity is beyond commendable. Someone far wiser than I whispered in my ear “thou shall reap what thou sows.” Positive synergy. Keeps our hobby alive.
Hopefully we can catch up at the Fall show!
Super - way to go Chris! That family will enjoy it immensely I’m sure!
The world needs more blokes like you - Seeing that kid's smile was priceless
Funny how this doesn't surprise me. Watching all your videos, seeing your personality and briefly chatting with you at the fall ( I think) York. You just strike me as a guy who has this in his heart. What a gem you are Chris!!!!
I remember chatting with you Joe and it was great meeting you last Fall! Thank you for all of your support.
I just had to watch this again, it's so heart-warming to see!
Chris, I am so impressed with your gesture in giving such a high end locomotive to this young man and his father. You've touched them for the rest of their lives. Nothing but respect for your great generosity. Kudos to you. 😊👍👍
Well this was amazing. Ive always wanted to get to a point where giveaways and raffles were something I could offer and be part of, but I don't have much of an audience to host such things. Being able to give back and encourage others is an important part of any hobby. Model railroading can definitely benefit from it long term. Lionel with there VL BB Giveaway, train clubs doing raffles and giveaways, and things like this are great steps in the right direction. The Triplex will hopefully be in that boys life for a longtime and keep him inspired. Tip of the cap to you RBP on this one.
Great job, Chris! Very generous of you! 👏
That was a good thing ya did! The Triplex is a must have for anyone!
It was a great moment!
Thank you for spreading some joy to a very appreciative young man! This great Chris! Awesome!
Thank you Joseph!
Fantastic Chris! What a wonderful way to help a young family into the hobby; BRAVO!
You did an amazing thing to give him that engine. His face was filled with joy.
You're one in a million. The look on that boys' face was priceless!!!
He was so excited! Well...we all were! Thanks for watching Dave
RBP u made not only a family happy. U made the people that watch ur channel happy. Great job.
Thank you @pearsoooo 6972!
@@RBPTrains ur welcome
What a generous way
to show your gratitude! Way to go!
Thank you Bill!
Funny..... my dad and I are building a model railroad to!
Enjoy the build! Building is my favorite part!
Wow! Impressive display of kindness. That’s a holy grail engine for a lot of us and now for that wonderful family. See you soon in Detroit I hope.
Thanks Steve! Hope to see you out there this summer!
Hey Chris! Your channel is my favorite I subscribe to - not only trains, but overall. Now I know why. The old adage "It's better to give than receive" has often been lost in this materialistic world, but you showed how one random act of kindness can really make a difference. The best part is the joy on that kid's face when he blew the whistle! Maybe others will be inspired to do the same. You picked a great family to give your beloved train to. God Bless everyone involved. Thanks for this video. I needed it. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much Tom! His face was priceless when he blew the whistle. An incredible experience and memory! Thank you for all of your support.
Hey Chris. Thank you for being an awesome example to the model train future generations. I am sorry I missed you at York last week, but look forward to meeting at a future York. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Scott and hopefully we can catch up at the Fall show this year!
WOW!!!! what a great way to encourage and promote our great hobby. You are a very giving person. That train will always have a story behind it.
It definitely will have a story! Thank you so much @Larry!
All I can say is "WOW!!!" What an awesome gesture!
Thanks Randy! Hope all is well my friend
Wonderful on your part Chris !!!!!!
Chris, such an act of kindness and selflessness. That little guy will remember that for the rest of his life. You are what make the TH-cam community so great. Keep posting love your videos. ❤
I appreciate you Steven!
Like I said before the world needs more people like you. Keep spreading joy and happiness.
Thank you Spencer! I appreciate you!
Very nice for you to get a new train fan into the hobby.good job Chris.😊
Thanks Jim! Wanted to do something different for this York Show :)
I love the look on the kids face! I gave a kid in Arizona a Lionel starter Set that included track and transformer. He would watch TH-cam train videos and said that he would like to get into the hobby, but couldn't afford it. That karma will come back to you tenfold Chris.
That kid will never forget your kindness Steven! What a great thing you did for him!
Chris you are awesome the ways you share this hobby. A father and son who will never forget this.
Thank you Bill! I appreciate you.
So awesome that kids gonna remember that day for the rest of his life! Your amazing need more good ppl like you in the world!
Thank you @Sodano Homestead!
That is one day he and his parents will never forget.
Chris, it was very generous and kind of you to give your brand new triplex to a subscriber! Christain's face lit up when he found out you were giving it to him!
Thanks @Trainking79! It was a special moment. That engine went to great new home!
Thats amazing he looks so happy!!
Very generous of you Chris.
Absolutely so nice of you!!! God Bless!!!
Ahh dude, that’s amazing! Fair fucks to you… your a legend! Sooo much love from Ireland!!! :)

Thank you @TTTE 2056! Giving away this train gave me such happiness. At the end of the day, we can always find another one down the line. Thanks for watching!
Those two will remember that for years to come! That’s the way to welcome the future into the hobby!
Was a special moment for all. Thanks for watching Kyle!
