  • Part two of two videos highlighting operations at Monument Yard on the Oregon Joint Line. This will make more sense if you watch part one first • Oregon Joint Line - 1s...

    "Make me happy now" lol. Honestly I really enjoy your videos. They show N scale as a viable option for a future pike, and they give insight to the yardmasters perspective and thought process. So last Monday when I asked the Yardmaster if we (my welding crew) could get in and look at some frogs, and he says "No" before we finish the sentence then gives me that look and fallows up with "We're quite bloated this morning", I know what's going on.

    Hi Dean - Another excellent video ....... entertaining and action-packed. The ending was classic!! The entire video "made me happy now"! Good job. Mike

      thanks Mike - as you well know back in the day when most railroad managers moved up from the union ranks you had to be careful because you never knew who might be friends with who...

    Dean, Most excellent work. A thought here..you could email scripts out to freinds so you would not need to be the Mel Blanc of the model railroad world. Just record the phone conversation.
    Your videos kick some serious hind tail.

      Ah, but the voices of the recurring characters have already been established. New voices can only be used on mainline through trains. Well, unless that yardmaster gets his ass fired... 😂

    Why does he always say "Make Me Happy Now"?

    • @oregonjointlinemodelrailro4125
      @oregonjointlinemodelrailro4125  6 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      good question. Back when I was an actual yardmaster we had a switchman who would say "Make me happy now" at least 20 times a shift. He was essentially asking for less work.

    I work for a class one in a yard that is very much lost in the woods so to speak. When I'm on our one yard job I'm pretty much my own yardmaster in addition to conducting. That opening sequence hit a little too close to home. Been in that exact situation more than once and you perfectly captured the "I'm about to lose my shit" moment; although my 'make me happy now' usually comes in the form of a "Commonnnn mannnn" from 888's crew when I give them 15 minutes of extra work

    Dean,
    Truly a fascinating insight into the world of a yardmaster... something we don’t usually see in the model world.
    Out of curiosity, which yards did you work at in your professional capacity?

    AWESOME!!! Usually I don't watch every minute of ANY video, but I loved yours...especially when you "told off" the superintendent at the end! LOL. Because of your video...I'm even more intrigued about everything that goes on at rail yards!! Bravo to you sir!

    • @beeble2003
      @beeble2003 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The best part for me is that he knows exactly when I'm going to want to fast-forward and he does it himself. The sped-up sections are prefectly timed and give exactly the right mix of reasonably realistic running speeds and not taking all day to get anywhere.

    • @oregonjointlinemodelrailro4125
      @oregonjointlinemodelrailro4125  6 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Thanks Michael - there's only one guy behind these videos (me) doing all the voices, beats, scripts, throttles, etc which is why it takes a while to produce. The "make me happy now" character was based on an actual switchman who worked for me when I was a prototype yardmaster in the 90's. He'd say that at least 20 times a shift, not to mention having to get home to a "hot date" with some "Wild Turkey"...

      @@oregonjointlinemodelrailro4125 Oh, we knew it was a real guy. If you'd made it up, he'd have said it once, maybe twice. Nobody has the guts to use a line like that again and again if it's pure fiction!

      I work at a hotel, I deal with impossible demands often, and if I don't satisfy them, they too call corporate and those people probably have never worked at the Front Desk and have NO idea what is really what. I told one of them 'You set the rules, and I'm following them and getting cussed out by both the guest AND you!'
      I really do enjoy your videos, and would love to see more! Thank you!
