- The Grande Tour Episode 3.
Day 2: Monday July 10th 2023
I ride the Nevada Northern Railway from East Ely and through Robinson Canyon. This is a beautifully kept historic railroad and facilities. See the locomotive during morning preparations, a ride up the canyon and back, and then a tour of the locomotive shop (workshops / engine sheds).
Oh, and I ride with TH-cam legends and lovely people: Dale and Karyn of @ToyManTelevision . It was really great to spend some time with these guys!
This is part of my amazing historic railroad-based trip between Salt Lake City and Denver.

never a better sound.
Oh it's beautiful.
Nice to see all the sensible folk sitting inside and just the lunatics sitting in the open wagon! I would expect no less
Haha!!! Absolutely 😜👍
Thanks Simon. It was a great treat seeing Karyn and Dale in front of the camera. Really enjoyed the video.
Thank you George!
It was great to meet up with them.
Great country, great company and such an interesting railroad. Obvious you’re having the time of your life.
It was so great, and it was only day 2!
I did have the time of my life. Best two weeks ever. I have SO much more to share.
Thank you!
Another great video! Glad you got to spend some time with Dale and Karen.
Thanks Merv!
Yeah it was really nice seeing them. Hopefully we'll meet again in not too long 🤞
Great to have you see Dale & Karyn!
It really was great 😁
Magnificent!! 😊. A grand day it was!!!!! Fun is where you find it and wow did we find it!! We LOVE Ely. It’s out there. Middle of nowhere. When people say “this is not the middle of nowhere, but you can see it from here” they are looking down on Ely from a nearby hill. The joy of that is that nowhere is where time goes to waste itself. Hum. That was either profound or incredibly stupid. It’s amazing how often it’s hard to tell the difference. I digress. Anyway, it was so fun getting out there riding the train meeting you and just generally hanging out. And yes, wasting a bit of time. Glad you had a nice trip and what an amazing series of videos this has turned out to be.
Well, we did have a grand time in the middle of nowhere, or near it.... if nowhere has a middle 🤔.
I loved Ely, such a lovely little place.
Loved spending time with you both too. Great times.
With these videos, I've set myself a lot of work 🙈😂
Good morning Simon, the 2-8-0 of the Nevada Northern Railway was beautifully filmed. A great meeting from the people at ToyManTelevision. I subscribed to this channel, a great ride on the train and the tour of the workshops. With interesting railway vehicles, such as the snow blower and the crane. A fantastic video from your trip, thank you for sharing and have a good time. Best regards Wolfgang
Hi Wolfgang.
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you very much.
Cheers, Simon
Great video !! Love the shop tour !!
Great. Thanks Burnett! It was a great visit. Thank you!
👍👍Beautiful scenery / sounds . That coaling tower ! Very cool. "...bringing locomotive 81 back to bed " , that's some real cinema you crafted there Simon .
Thanks,
Cape Cod Steve
Thank you so much!
That cooling tower I believe is a double one. Don't quote me just yet, we'll have to check, but I think one engine wouldn't fit the existing tower so they had to build a second one. That may be true 🤔
Cheers! 👍
That six chime is just pure power! Great video as always!
A beautiful tone, isn't it?
Thanks Dude! 👍
This is sooooo cool! We had a grand time meeting up with you at the Nevada Northern! Fun times! Thanks again for the T-shirts! Can’t wait to see the rest of your adventure!
It was a grand time indeed. So nice!
You are welcome, a bit of fun. And thank you for the shirt and bag!
I have so much more editing to do 🙈😂
Super cool video!!!
Thanks very much!
Looks like fun! 😊👍
Oh it was 🥰
Very cool ! Thanks for taking us along 👍 I really need to drive out to Ely and ride the train.
Oh if you can, you must. It's well worth a visit. And if it's a nice evening, have a wonder around the station as I show in my previous video. It was so peaceful!
I've only watched 5 mins so far (don't worry I will watch it all) and oh wow! The sound of the whistle is just fab!
Ohhhh yes, those roaring deep chimes. America knows how to do whistles!
I did once get to fire a Baldwin S-160 when it visited the West Somerset Railway a few years ago. That was awesome, and very different to the Great Western engines I'm used to 😂
@@ThatBIGTRAINGuy I've finished watching now. Fab video! The sound of the train is amazing!!
@@BecsterDotCom Great, thank you!
Wait until we get to the Durango & Silverton (episode 12): more amazing sounds,... but in a canyon! It's magical. 🥰
The wig wag signal at the grade crossing is cool. I've never seen one operational. The train ride looks fun. In spite of your comments about the cinders, the tunnels look way cool.
Oh I'm happy to put up with the cinders. (Apparently, it was a new Fireman).
Yeah the wig-wag is great! I think Dale told me it was restored on some TV show.
What a great day and what a place.Fantastic.
The mic performed well.Must have been the double muff😁.
Thanks Simon great video🤘
You can never have too much muff 🤭
Thanks David! 👍
No theres muffing like it😁
@@davidwhite1864 😂
That was another great show, very well done. Always good to see Dale & Karyn, good people…
Enjoy your shows, keen em coming.
They are indeed.
Thank you so much!
Awesome. I watched every minute. There is a wig wag crossing signal at Heritage Park in Calgary, Alberta as well. I really think they are neat. I liked seeing the lightly laid 40 foot rail sections. Could they have been 36? DJ will grow in legend in the next few decades like Dirt did. Thanks Simon for a cool video. I also agree with Dale about the oddity of that font when going backward. Lol
The wig-wags are cool, aren't they? I think Dale said the ones seen here were restored by a guy on TV.
Thanks Terry. And I literally JUST released episode 5. I saw someone had left a comment and thought "That was quick!" But, it was here, not there 😂
Cheers!
@@ThatBIGTRAINGuy haha. I also just watched your cooking on the shovel. I am still trying to catch up with vids and such. I’ll get there!
@@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi I'm the same. I'm getting there!
The videos won't go away, which is good 😉👍
Awesome vid Simon. I love sound of the old bell on the train! please can you tell me the name of the song at the start.
Thanks so much!
Umm... yes. It's "My Train's A Comin' " by Unicorn Heads. It's from the TH-cam audio library of royalty free music. It looks like the artist has their own channel on TH-cam, so look 'em up 👍
@@ThatBIGTRAINGuy thank you 🙏
