your grandfather would be very proud of your work you made, even when he's no longer here, he will always be with you no matter what.
Yeah. Hes right
He very much would. 🚂
Imagine if one of them derails, you’ve literally got a multi thousand dollar accident on your hands, Sodor would be blushing
Just blame it on the g scale diesel he doesn’t have yet
Luckily, no one will be hurt ;)
Well, except maybe his wallet.....
Imagine it falling on your head.
Slows down the fall, but cracks your skull open.
Basically if a close shave happend on opposite day
That's so sweet, continuing your late family's shelf layout. Of course, now it's more splendid than ever.
James is probably teasing percy about him falling off the rails. That's why Percy is so scared
Somthing tells me that one of the trains will fall off at some point
Almost did once, but that was a track issue. They won’t as long as I’m smart about operating them lol
@@ItsTrainBoy If percy was the one who almost fell, This is going in the history books
which is why my favorite engine is james
Percy: What's that?
James: The Shelf Railway. It's very dangerous up there.
Percy: (worried) I hope I don't fall off!
Troublesome Tanker: (Snickers)
By the way, fence posts would be a good idea; keeping the engines from falling, and adding some extra scenery!
May your grandfather rest in peace. I'm sure he would love the tribute and what a fine layout it is.
If you truely want a Season 2 Percy, his left cylinder has to wobble up and down and his centre lamp iron has to have just a big glue blob.
LOL
That, my esteemed colleagues, is what the new era calls a "burn."
I love that James looks just like the RC show
Just as a small thing, I’d recommend adding some kind of fencing/guard rail to prevent a worst case scenario.
There is/was actually a little fast food joint in my state that has a shelf layout. It was one of, if not THE coolest places I have ever been. Haven't been there in over ten years, so I hope it is still there.
I went the a pizza place that had the same thing. It was a pretty big shelf railway, also a lot of hospitals have shelf railways too.
The fact you did in honor of you grandfather is soo wholesome
Very honorable of you to do this memory of your grandfather! I'd like to do a self layout someday, or at least try to. The hanging track makes me think of Bulldog which means someone should make a G Scale Falcon and Duke just because! Most of the G Scale engine's are narrow gauge anyway. And I noticed a shower curtain under the track during Percy's running session. I guess this gives a new meaning to "Dirty Percy."
I wonder if the people of Sodor know their taxes are being used to pay for bi-weekly accidents.
They should
yep
Honestly, this is majestic to look at
Your grandfather would’ve been proud! Also there’s a store where I used to live that had a ceiling model railway.
That's a really nice layout.
I like what you have done and I'm sure your grandpa is very proud of you and what you have done with his model trains
Reminds me of one of my favorite restaurants from when I was a kid.
Fantastic video. Love seeing the large scale thomas
man, I got loads of LGB at my parents house in the attic, this makes me want to set it up somewhere but I live in a tiny terrace house and have no garden or anywhere to run it. I got that little mobile workman's hut as well
To see this comment God bless you and may the coming months get better
Loving the cold opens :D
A wonderful idea. I hope to make a garden railway of my own in the future. But with the Thomas G Scale trains being harder to find in the UK plus not knowing if my family is planning to move house, makes it hard knowing if I should wait. Don't want to make plans and dig up the garden only to move in the future. Oh well one day...Maybe next year~
Awesome dude that’s amazing absolutely astounding
That's really neat!
A very interesting collection of things
Glad to see you’re honoring your grandfather’s legacy. Super seeing LGB stuff in videos. Also I thought I was the only one who had that “For Trainmen Only” sign. Guess not lol
Training runs deep for you I see. Stupendous Video!
I spy the McKinley Explorer set! I have two of the coaches from that set, Kenai and Knik, and they're a few of my favorites.
It's high up there! Nice video!
dang that's sick
until James or Percy fall off the shelf
Yeah
R.I.P.
I found the closer the tracks to the edge the better viewing you have
I #Respect to your grandpa so Props to him.
This is a awesome video so far. Nice video
(Early squad will see this)
Bro my old dentist had a g scale train that ran on the ceiling, this is amazing
That’s really cool,
Keep up the good work
those engines look like the hit era modles
This is fantastic! Great work!
Ty for posting this I really wanted this video
Amazing! Keep up the great work!
5:03 I'm pretty sure when James saw that the tiny green engine had to help him, he must be like wtf
This is pretty impressive
You could put a siding above the door where the tracks turn to avoid the curtain. You put a switch above the door and the siding would be up against the wall that continues to the curtain.
Looks awesome!
Well James looks like he's hauling a track inspection train. Yep
Man I love your videos your so amazing and you inspire me can you make more capsules play rail videos and also tell butters I said hi 😀
Your grandfather would be proud
i agree his grandfather would be proud
We need a room tour Lance 😉
Shelf layout look's good
Oh cool it's like that restraunt that serves you drinks and food by model train
Make way for an important engine!!
-James again
I love it I've always wanted one in ho scale but never been able to do it also anything on the weekly kipper
I’m so sorry to hear your grandfather passed away
Now all you need is to add a switch (plus a hole) that sends the train outside during the summer months
i am getting started in G scale and i plan on building a 4-6-0+0-6-4 Garratt in the style of a Union Pacific Locmotive
Beautiful
Big fan mr. Trainboy
I have an old Lionel G scale, Thomas and James. never had the lionel G scale scenery that went with them though. Never had a reason to show them off though.
Even if your grandfather does not see you.... he will be always in your heart
(If he is dead ._.)
G scale :)
That right
CAN WE PLEASE GET AN UPDATE😭😭😭
Nice joke Train boy, always happy to see a new video.
you should get a g-scale winston for when you're inspecting the tracks.
Who winston
Wooo a train boy vid
You should get a Bachmann big hauler G scale 4-6-0 steam locomotive, it's one of my favorite steam locomotives
I've always wanted to do something like that with my place but with HO/OO scale trains. I'll have to ask the landlord if I can do that XD
1:52 Hello funkos!
This is so cool.
My local model train shop has a G scale ceiling layout.
Cool 😎
This Wii Suit His Grace.
This is so cool
Amazing
Definitely would love to do this, might same up some money to get a model scale engine like how you did it.
AYO! u got the same roof detail as me XD
I think those work train cars would look awesome if Bachamann would release Rusty in G scale
G sale yeeeeeeeeeeees!!!!!!!!!!!
That's funny my Grandfather had a G scale layout on the walls close to the ceiling to except his was around the whole house
My Dad has that LGB train, two sets of them, well one that's intact at least.
How progressive of that controller to be lgb friendly❤️
I'm kind of in a situation like you where I have an HO layout and and N Scale layout to run the HO and N collection I've got, but I've been starting to accumulate a small O Gauge collection too. Do you have any suggestions/advice on building a ceiling layout like this? I might want to do something like that so that the O stuff has something to run on.
I don’t remember a g scale James when did you get that?
OMG i have the same train(s) and rolling stock, around xmas time i set up the train around the entire first floor of my home maybe this could be a potential idea for a temp gscale layout?
your grandfather would be proud keep it up
the james, percy and milk tankers were custom made by him.
Yeah duh not including those
ive two 2 of the green locomotive (my cousin has a bachman percy) the rolling stock i have thats the same in the vid is the flatbed with the truck on it and the brake down crane
Cool
I could never do something like this, I’d be too paranoid the board supports would give way and everything would fall and break lmao
Wonderful, my only question is, is there a scale you dont model XD Amazing job man
G scale james with a model series face i thought he got a gauge 1 james
Oh yeah even though your grandpa has passed away he would be proud of you and even though he's not with you but he is always in your memories and your heart
😊👍
Wow
Please update us on that percy video
Also if the opportunity arose to do a lot bigger set up would you do a large visitor's attraction as a model village like what there is here in the UK? Just wanted to know how you would design a model Village with railway/railroad if you had the option and a field to build it in
You should at some point do a room tour
Now please do a video on your gauge 1 Percy
Most train fans got into trains through their grandfathers my self Included
James? Freight? EAGER!?
What did you do to mai boi
That G Scale James is beautiful, how much was he if i may ask
Maby for the brige can be the viaduct and have Thomas run over it before disaster strikes
Might I ask what happened to the custom g scale Thomas you had? I don’t remember you saying anything about selling it or giving it away
Is the salt van still a WIP? It would look cool up there with other locomotives
The salt wagon is a gauge one model so it wouldn't fit on g scale tracks
@@JustAnIssac ah ok nvm then. Thanks for that bit of info
If they derail the situation you'll have is "Pray to any god of your choosing"
could you show your whole room at some point?
