i just found his videos the other day and can't stop watching them . i find them so relaxing and like you, so thankful that it doesn't have music or talking.
Can anyone agree that the most satisfying part is the sand blasting?
Sand blasting definitely but the powder coat is a close 2nd!! LOL
Oh thays what he is doing?
Cleansing the soul of the machine.....
I can agree. That is the one thing you can't do in the sink. :-)
That’s pretty sweet piece of equipment.
As a train enthusiast, I absolutely love how you turned what look like a piece of scrap I'd find in my uncles garage into something that looks like it was just built new
Why would anyone be interested in trains?
@@phoenix1453 why would anyone be interested in fictional first person shooter games?

@@CaliRRWhy would a race car would be interested on trains? Don't they hate each other?
@@phoenix1453 everyone has a different opinion on what's interesting.
Absolutely beautiful restoration with respect to the heritage of the piece. Can you imagine 100 years from now anyone attempting to restore something made today? Everything is plastic and made cheaply. You’ll be lucky to have anything to restore.
Your piece is 100 years old and looks like it was made yesterday because you have the foundation to work.
Amazing work mate. 👍🇦🇺
There won't be anything worth restoring in 100 years

I was thinking about the same thing throughout the whole video. Its sad and happy at the same time.

Yeah, the Statue of Liberty was originally brown
Раньше умели делать игрушки, как произведения искусства! Поэтому многие из них дошли до нас. Не то что сейчас одноразовые! Мастеру браво, у него золотые руки:))!
Вы верно подметили! Раньше игрушки детские делали из железа и из дерева , эти работы были сделаны в ручную . И стоит подметить , что после работы руки мастера были изуродованные, из- за краски лака железа и силы вношеные в рукоделие. Но всё же из-за усилий этих мастеров мы и на данный момент имеем возможность рестоврировать и увидеть какие они были красивыми.
Ну а сейчас игрушки заделаны из пластика и т.д. , эти игрушки сделаны станками , у которых часто бывает брак. Ну и экология страдает из-за этого ужаса.

Agreed 100%
You are soooooo right on that one!!!!
@Marko Laaksonen - Indeed, I never thought about it that way, but it is true for some reason - it is inspiring and very entertaining. Those that are negative about devaluation and methodology just don't get it - It's not always about the money, unless you are planning to sell it. It is a beautiful piece of work, and many people would like to have for it's beauty it as well as a conversation piece!
divorce her-
be glad you watched a rusty train only lol
Astonishing. I would never have believed that the dented, rusty toy at the start would become the beautiful shiny toy at the end. Excellent!
When it comes to repairing and restoring things, it's amazing what you can do if you have enough patience and determination.
@@ct92404 And the right tools for the job.
Wow! A Dayton train engine?! My grandfather played with one of those when he was a kid! He was born in 1923. Real nostalgia. If he was still alive, he would have loved watching this. He died in 2018 at the age of 95
If only he had live one or two more years, then he’d be able to see this… Sounds like he live a very long life!
R.I.P 😔
As a bit of a rail enthusiast myself, that locomotive looks gorgeous! It honestly wouldn't be a stretch to imagine it looking even better than when it was brand-new.

I never ever thought that I would have such a strong desire to buy a sand blaster.
I was just looking at how much they cost. Not that I have any reason to own one.
Looked them up for pricing after seeing the piano restoration.
I really want one...no other reason lol
😂😂😂😂
Me too
Love the restoration, the train turned so much prettier than when it was made. Loved seeing the sandblasting. Great video.
Love the sandblasting and powder coating. Never gets old.
Beautiful job!
Is the metal steel?
Is the powder coating some sort of electrostatic process?
I am clueless. Please don’t beat me up because I don’t already know.
My Grandfather was a Railroad Man.. 43 years and my Father for 20+ years... before he retired during a sell off. This was an amazing restoration... made me think of them both. Thank You. More Trains!
My dad worked for the same railroad for 46 years....from 1954 to 2000. I know how you feel, and those guys usually love toy trains, I know my dad collected Lionel trains and had a few different layouts over the years. Loved this video.
I gave you a like it just well I don't know how to say it it just gave me the feeling to give you a like
The person that originally made that in the 20's would be so proud of what you done :D
Bet you an 8 year old made it too back in that day

I always love watching the abrasive media blasting portion of these videos. It's super satisfying seeing all that built up gunk from over time disappear.
Can i just say
How in hell do u remember how to put it back together
Lollll
LOL!!!🤣🤣 He must replay the beginning part of his video s my guess!
Lol 😂 I thought the same thing
They probably take a pic after removing parts
It's probably because he is so experience in restoring these toys that he now knows instinctively how to reassemble it.
I have this exact train in my collection! It was my grandfather’s from when he was a boy back in the 1920’s. I didn’t realize it had a bell.
Was his green as well?
Bob Rupp. Where that antique train is placed now?
Nope, it is black, red, and silver.

The sandblasting is my favorite part...I also like to watch the power paints dry down in the oven. So relaxing and satisfying.
I’ve been collecting trains for many years and watching you restore this warmed my heart.🥰 BEAUTIFUL!
>has a sand blaster

SOMEBODY GET THIS MAN AN ANVIL
Tejirof the wood is softer and more gentle to the hammering
A mini one would be awesome!
Perhaps a rubber anvil would be best for the job
I only use wood for correcting any kind of sheet metal product, if I use anything at all.
How do you know it's a man?
Wow. The fact that you undercoated the rivets was a detail that did not go unnoticed :)
I like the way you're gentle and yet forceful taking these old toys apart thank you. I've always enjoyed watching your show in your restoration of old things.
Thank you for your work
Hi, just wanted to say that this is a fine piece of work. I’m 1 year in to restoring badly damaged Lionel Standard Gauge engines. Your knowledge and technique are impeccable. I need to invest in a media blaster. Also I know exactly how difficult those damn side rods and linkages can be!
Just watching a dude restore an antique locomotive in the middle of the night... TH-cam recommendations leads you on interesting paths. Anyways its so satisfying watching Videos like this.
exactly the same case here rn, solidarity
quarantine has us starring at this in awe
Sometimes TH-cam recommendations are, strange and wired tbh
Plot twist: it's a gal!

This is honestly so beautiful, just imagine how happy the kid who received the train in the 1920s was, Durning the depression era, surely his or her father bringing home the train from work, or the store must have really made things better in their lives even Durning struggles, if the train could talk in sure it would have alot to say, and I'm positive that the child that once had it would be absolutely delighted to see it restored
Eliza The Offizier
Well said my friend, well said. Brought a smile to my face.
Eliza The Offizier Actually the 1920s weren’t the depression yet. They were the roaring 20s and a lot of people were rich
@@thegoogly4189 well, the depression got kick-started in 1928 and officially came about in 1929. As we don't know the date of manufacture or purchase (how can you on something so old?) this could very well be a depression-era toy.
@@Tadfafty Fascinating. Were there tracks as well, or just the tender and cars? There seems to be some kind of flywheel mechanism, perhaps a crude friction motor of some kind? If it is, tracks would make sense, I think though, the wheels are the wrong shape... Hm...
@@Tadfafty well I'm sure it would have been kept thought that time
Another successful restoration and beautifully done. You can see the love and dedication for all vintage to restore. It's pleasure watching the videos.
Acho que esse é um dos únicos canais que não "reformam" peças retrô com processos para induzir o envelhecimento, mas sim, reformam peças genuinamente antigas e envelhecidas pelo tempo.
these videos are like that scene in Toy Story 2 where Woody gets repaired
Warriorseamonkey16 omg yesss
What if he's a younger version of the repair guy in toy story 2???
Maybe...
YES!!!!👍
Warriorseamonkey16 I know right that scene is so satisfying
How the hell does he know how to put everything back together. When I fix stuff I end up with extra screws at the end lol.
Charles When I take things apart I take pictures with my phone as I go through the process of disassembly. That makes it a lot easier to reassemble it. The wonders of technology!😂😂
Hes literally videoing himself take it apart.
@@Desmodus1958 This is literally the best advice you can give someone. If you've never done it before, take loads of pictures. Even though I've done things dozens of times I still snap a few off just in case
저런거 어디팔죠?
Most of us take pics at every step of the way. used to do it with a Polaroid. HECK of a lot easier with today’s phones! I’ve known folks with expertise and memory so that it just goes in their head. My favorite ever was a motorcycle mechanic. Saw him replace the frame on one once. 1/4” drive rocker switch snap-on air tool, flat rate was 7 hours. All the way down, put the new frame on the stand, NEVER even looked for a part, just reached. 1 hour 47 minutes. Never in my life did I ever see him cut a corner (do shabby work).
This was very enjoyable to watch. Thank goodness someone is saving the old things. In 100 years, none of the plastic things made today will have survived to restore. But that’s no great loss. 👍🏻
I just found this. What a gorgeous restore! That is so beautiful and I thoroughly enjoyed this video. That black and red is so much more appealing than that sick hospital teal color.
I wonder if the green was a previous attempt to revive it, using some extra paint they had in the basement in 1972 or something.
@@elizabethpemberton8445 no, i saw another comment ( although anyone can say anything so it may not be true) that they had one of the same model and it was the same colour.
This locomotive was already a beautiful sight even before restoration!
Wish we could have sublime toys like that without any plastic!
These videos are wonderful!.Thanks.
But you could get cut on the metal
As nice as these toys were they are a bit dangerous.Im old enough to remember tin toys and they could give you a nasty cut.These restorations are beautiful and probably only for decoration .
Can't imagine someone designing it on paper.
@@ladytron9188... But stepping on a lego is dangerous too. 😂
MusicForAll Definitely 😂😂😂👍🇬🇧
I especially like the attention to detail in how you color coated the rivets
But why did he use epoxy instead of using new axle pins?
The powder paint sprayer sounds like a balloon that is losing air.
For some reason....this was one of the most satisfying restos I've seen on this channel. Unbelievable skills.
Dose anyone else find these videos completely relaxing

100% agree!
I used to restore jukeboxes from the 30s and 40s, back in the 1980s, and built my own sand blasting / glass beading cabinet, and yes, it WAS satisfying to watch years of crud and corrosion magically disappear in a instant with a pass of the glass beading nozzle.
I would love to see you work on a Pre-War, Standard Gauge Lionel electric train engine & cars. I think you might find it quite challenging. Some of them have enameled castings, some have combinations of brass & steel and some are tinplate with graphics using lithography. You would also have the electrical motor & components to deal with.
The work that went into making the locomotive in the first place was impressive, watching its restoration was very satisfying. What a beautiful thing.
So jealous of your workshop!
I like how you didn't use background music, I love all the sounds!
Can you imagine the little boy this train belonged to? How much joy and happiness it brought him? Now it lives on for another boy to play with.
I'd say a bigger boy, one who takes care of his things much better than the "green" boy. ;)
@adrianne roddy - "girls"
Yeah, then her little brother got it, and wrecked it. She never forgave him for that! ;) ;)
@Lalla Madonna - another boy or girl, then. Let's not play a guessing game.
@@BFDT-4 what's up with u😕
@@BFDT-4 you do realize that rust just come naturally by age.
you cant blame a kid for rust, lmao.
Kids dont cost rust. Years do.
I lost it at the color-matched rivets. Outstanding.
This restoration has made the toy look better than it might have when it was brand new. Fabulous work.
the number 1 thing that gets to me about any restoration project is the sheer commitment and time that goes into it, it must feel good at the end knowing the project was successful
Not only is it time consuming to restore these antiques, but it's also time consuming to edit all the videos. Great job on both. 👍
Once again I’m amazed at your talent and skills. Beautiful restoration.
It's so satisfying watching the Abrasive Media Blasting. Love watching the rust magically disappear.
So satisfying to watch, seeing a skilled craftsman take care in restoring something old, broken and neglected, making it better than new, and giving it a new lease of life
This one was amazing, I thought it was copper at first because of that strange copper oxide green, but seeing the work put in and the end result was fantastic! Great attention to detail, right down to the rivets. This is top notch stuff!
T'as vraiment " Des mains en Or " !
Merci pour ce partage de connaissances, et le temps passé à faire cette vidéo.
my almost 4 year old granddaughter and I watched this tonight. I loved it, but she LOVED it!
I really hope that in 100 years your grandson restores this train once again.
Passing on a tradition
If it stays in good condition there's no need to restore it
Powdercoat paint will hold up much better than the original enamel. Also, this was likely not treated with care, left outside in rain etc.
@@willg4802 Maybe 200 years then! Lol
The way these are restored, they're designed to last even longer than their original because they protect metal from rusting.
Maybe in 200 years.
What an absolutely brilliant restoration that thing is like brand new.
It definitely looks better than when it was new :)
@@MrCombic Yes, much better! Very nice decor piece.
Love you channels of bouth youtubers
Sure does
This thing is older than my pa is.
20 years younger than the house.
No music, no voice. God…my restoration prayers have been answered 🙏
That was amazing! Colors where great. Nice job. I love to see old things look new again.
The immense pride you must feel. Your skilled work is an art in a category all it's own.
The disassembly process always makes me nervous, but of course it's worth it to see the beautiful finished product!
14:50 this man is literally a god at putting on stickers
Seeing the way you can duplicate the tiny metal parts you are a major mini machinist!
Dear Resto man, I have a photo from 1919 that shows a 5-year old boy and his family on the porch of my house. In the background is this same toy train (it originally had a tender). I rescued and restored the house, but you did a better job on the toy train! Thanks.
@Puking Dino the car most locomotives pull that holds all the coal.
i mean unscrewing them is easy but putting them back together....that's crazy.
you have my respect.
The powder coating on all these restos is what gets me. Always leaves the best finish. Sooo good.
Мой любимый ролик из всего ютуба!"Косит" лучше чем "Путешествие на край вселенной"!!!!!!!
That black gloved hands..magician’s hands 👌👏🏼
I really appreciate the actual sound without "music" as we suffer in other channels?
A question: why do you change the original colours? It's a philosophical decision? A new born toy? Or something like budist reincarnation?
Excellent work!
I was wondering this too. But maybe in this case the blue was the old primer? The one that confused me was the airplane. But in any case, completely satisfying to watch.
because green is an ugly color
If you're talking about the green, I think that's from oxidization.
Bad taste, most likely.
I would've kept the original color but, everyone has their own taste and it still came out amazing!
What a steady hand! Your pinstripe technique with the wheels was amazing. Again, another great rescue/restore!!
Very satisfying to watch,he made a lovely job of it ,I raise dead o gauge and standard gauge in the UK but don't have his equipment I could do with his sand blaster ! I have used one though and they save so much time messing about with paint stripper and rubbing..
Restoration is an art form and nobody can change my mind.
I agree, when done right.
When old toy vehicles last longer and are more durable than today’s actual cars...
That´s embarassing.
xMooNx FallOutx Hemp cars
V-G-Z no it’s not.
there's a reason that today's actual cars crumple like they do in accidents. If the car doesn't take the force and remains sturdy like they used to, then it's you who gets thrashed about at 60 miles an hour and will most likely die. Crumble zones in cars are SO SO important, even if it means they might get dented in less serious collisions.
@@emmavincent2048 also it DIDN'T help the economy.

Thank you for sharing knowledge, and the time spent making this video.
I love the sound of the brand new parts snapping together. Satisfying!
You’re like a surgeon ... a metal surgeon (as opposed to a plastic surgeon!) bringing old things back to its former glory. Love the videos for its simplicity in production - not chatter, no music. Just the craft. ⚡️⚡️

No kidding, damn.
Sincerely I've become addicted to your genuine restoration videos,thumbs up 👍
Do you ever forget how to reassemble everything and have to check previous footage?
Me when disassembling:
"I'll just pull this and this apart and hope it doesn't break."
Some restorations look daunting and this man is an artist.
I think this is a lady
One thing I am impressed by is that you test for lead-based paints. Even if you are going to remove the original pain. Excellent job.
Start to finish...amazing! I love seeing the different tools and techniques used!
Just think. The person who originally made this never would’ve guessed it would be restored in around 100 years
And their mind would've been blown if you told them the restoration would be shown on something called "the internet" with nearly 7 million views around the world.
Most likely several factory workers worked on different parts and assemblies. Unlikely that any one of them would care much as they made a large number of them
This train is almost a hundred years old. 😳 wow
Century old then
True
@@miserquemiguel2144 false. It says 20s, not 20. It could have been made on the very last day of 1929 for all we know.
Yeah. My great-grandfather's train. This is the first time I have seen it.
And looks allot better now than when it was new. That green color was horrible.
Wonderful, compelling work. A quibble, though: the restoration, as beautiful as it is, has left the original far behind. I'm thinking mostly of the new color(s). The original shade of green is so characteristic of its time that losing it severs the historical connection. The train is now "modern."
I was thinking the same...
I kind of agree, but the whole thing was green. It had no style.
Train 40's
I thought that the green was just rust.
Yes, I agree. And that kind of green was also used by some real rail lines. e.g. >> the Whippany Railway Museum repainted 385 into the green and gold paint scheme that it used to wore for the Morris County Central Railroad.
wow wow wow!!!! This is just amazing! I love how you have brought that old train back to life!
I don't think this locomotive has seen better days even as new. Wonderful work!
If you haven’t already you need to create a business of restoring objects because you are sooo talented and so many others think you are too... Keep doing what your doing you do GREAT😉
