- First train show of 2023! BUT IT WON'T BE THE LAST!! Train shows are back after a couple of years of most of them being shut down. Thanksgiving Point is back to its usual size and fun!
The venue was packed with modular railroads and displays and dealers. Massive screwing around! Good fun for everyone. HO scale, N scale, Lionel and American Flyer, and a MASSIVE Lego railroad. Well, two actually...
There are several great train shows in the Wasatch area and all have announced a full schedule for 2023. We will keep everyone posted on the community tab as to where and when. AND if you know of something fun coming up comment in the comment section.

Love these conventions, I wanna visit some, some day
The biggest one is BACK. And that club, the hostlers, do two shows one in the Evanston Roundhouse and one in the Ogden Union Station. The Ogden show was stopped because of Covid restrictions, last year they had it in the mall because the depot was still closed. Mall show was tiny. In one of the defunct stores. Tiny… anyway this year it’s back and the buzz is going off!! Everyone talking about it. Betting it the biggest show ever! I’ll keep people informed.
I always here about this one AFTER it happens, damn! Lol
Do make it to the Ogden show
Looked like a really good time! Great people and lots of trains 👍
Yes indeed!
I hope it would be great there. Wonderful time.
Got to attend! I actually bought the whole selection of HOn3 3D printed coaches you showed there, looking forward to building them! It really was a great year, I was happy to see a full HO layout as well this year! In years past they haven’t had one, just N scale and the other scales.
Fantastic! Speaking of HO… Tuesday.
Yes, the club started a new HO modular layout!
Another wonderful episode! I just LOVE train shows!!! I really enjoyed seeing every modular and layout. I even enjoyed the Lego train layouts which is highly unusual for me because I'm just NOT a Lego guy. I like the enthusiasm from this kid showing off his fictional railroad. 👉 3:14 You can see he loves what he's doing...enjoying the hobby! We NEED more kids like him! You're right when you said, in this episode, that the kids must get "excited" by the model railroading hobby to keep it going (or continuing). The hobby will NOT survive without the next generation. I enjoyed every minute of this train show. Do more shows like this. And thanks for letting me tag along! 👍😉
And! The Ogden train show is back!! Well it was moved to the mall. Sucked. Small. No dealers. But this year BACK AT THE OGDEN TRAIN DEPOT!!! Huge show. We’ve talked to several dealers and they are coming back. From as far the west coast. And we can take the train to get there because it’s at the train station. Again! And we are betting 10,000 people show up over the three days.
Nice show . thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks again for watching ❤
I have not been able to get to a show in 18 years i will have to do something about that thank you for taking us on your trip to the show
Thanks again!!!
VERY GOOD INDEED THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH ME JIM K FROM PHILLY WAY
Hi Jim. Thank you for watching.
Hey great video thank you two for sharing
Thanks for watching!
HA! Was looking through your old videos to show one to a friend and did not expect to find me in the thumbnail!
So there!
Fascinating train show. I always find the N gauge setups really cool.
They can do so much. I love F scale but where the models are great you just can’t fit much.
Thanks again for taking us with you. Karyn has the knack of one liners. To rich but keep them coming! Looking forward to seeing your ne buildings. Please post the link for the 3D printers I am looking for some special things.
Figures ‘n bits.com. Last I looked the site isn’t up. Yet. Super quality. Thanks as always Ken!!!!
@@ToyManTelevision Dale: Please Karyn know that there are some of us that went to diesels because we couldn’t keep a head of steam. I look forward to your next episode and new adventures. Rail on!
Hello from Kansas 🇺🇸
Morning!
Late friend of mine was an artiste' with balloons-he also had a speeder, miss him.
Regarding HO scale signals, please check out Signal Logic Systems. This is a company based in Edmonton. They have the finest grade crossing and signal systems in the industry
Wow I sure love this 👍 thanks for sharing another amazing video 😃
Thanks again for watching!!
Looking forward to my first train show in years on February 3 and 4th, hope to find that one thing i dont have yet . ...
Noice
L has a few sub groups when it comes to trains. The more realistic trains are typically in 8 Studs wide. Lego's train sets are typically 6 Studs wide. There are few people using 7, 9 or 10 studs wide which have a higher barrier of entry due to design complexity or the expense caused by the extra bricks required for the larger widths. They all typically run on the same 6 Wide track although there are small groups of people running trains on 4 Wide or 5 Wide track. Much like other scales the 3D printing has a allowed much more flexibility when it comes to parts.
Cool info thanks!!!
And that looks like a great train show, I haven't been to one for so long I'd love to see that show but I don't know if I could have parked my big rig there the last train show in Las Vegas was over 21 years ago ☹️
I’ll bet parking is…. Well….hard? Impossible ?
The trainshow in Cheyenne and Loveland I hardly see kids there. A few years ago I saw more, mostly at the LEGO layout, but this past November at the little Rocky Mountain Train Show as I call it in Loveland, there really were not many kids there , a lot of O scale Lyonel sellers. I have video'd Wasatch's layout's over the past few years but this one was bigger than they bring to Cheyenne but i do see the same modules as I have recorded.
We get lots of kids!! The local NMRA teaches kids to make “pizza box “ layouts. They are getting about 200 kids a month. 200 a month!!!! They have helped about 5,000 kids to build a layout. They are presenting this at national convention in a few weeks.
I'm completely with you on how cool the accurate, automated signals are! And the brass locomotives at 15:00 are so beautiful. Great train show!
Thank you very much!
Great show we are having one here in my area in February. At one of the mall's in my area this weekend they had 2 Ho layouts and one N scale layout on display that was fun and inspiring to see. The kids that I saw there were so excited to see the trains running and so were the adults. Love and always look for to you show.
GOD BLESS 🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖
Bless you too! And THANKS FOR WATCHING!!!
This episode was fun to watch. Love all that N scale stuff
Lots of N scale!!
That train show would have been a blast to go see. Maybe I'll keep my schedule open for at least one of the next ones that are coming up this year.
At 2:28 I have the same issue trying to couple my cars on my N scale train set. They just don't seem to want to work without a little help from a toothpick.
I'm impressed at the young lad with his fantasy railway, and his knowledge of events past, like the Thistle slide. Also he has a cool Willie Nelson t-shirt.
At 6:10 that is a long tanker set. I'm hoping that's going to happen at our new proposed Uintah Railway if it ever gets built. The plans are still in the works though! It'll go through Whitmore park and Indian canyon.
I was impressed at the Lego layout. I loved and had Legos as a kid, but never to this extent!
Wow! The Wasatch N-Scalers have a fantastic layout! I love the fall theme. The military training module was awesome too. Of course all of it was impressive. It seems that you had left the best part for last.
Thanks again for another great video!
Hi again!!!! Good train show. They had to say no to many clubs because it such a small room. But they are looking at a place at Gardner Village that’s about four times the size. And at Gardner there are shops and restaurants and the old mill. And it’s on the light railway with its own station. I’m betting it would be a great move if they do it. But it would be a move out of Utah Valley and as they are the only show in utah valley I’m guessing some of the southern wasatch people would cry no fair! But common.. it’s about nine miles. Anyway it’s a small room.. great location but small.
Gee, I wonder who the handsome fellow at 3:14 could be? 🤔😂
Holy freaking crap lois
When are you guys going back to the Colorado railroad museum
Soon I hope!!
@@ToyManTelevision ok
Are you going to the National N Scale Convention being held in Reno, Nevada?
Don’t know..
@@ToyManTelevision ah okay
L scale, nice what’s the gauge vs scale on that ? 🤷🏼♂️
I know it's close to O
1:38 scale. 37.5mm gauge. 5 studs. It’s based on Lego stud spacing. Lego spacing is always measured in Lego studs.
@@ToyManTelevision really i think that scale has some signficance i believe 66 scale inches in 1/38th comes out to 45 milimeters
Amazing vid as always! Man oh man i want to live in the states, all these train shows all year round. Maybe in a future life hehe
Thanks!! You could visit! 😊
Dale, as the many times you and Karyn have attended these many different model train shows, one might believe your car just might know the way to the destination automatically. Actually, this would only be wishful thinking in 2023, but alas, it might actually be the reality in the very near future. I did notice one of those displays at the show was showing a Great Lakes Ore Ship in the dock being unloaded. Since it is still wintertime on the Great Lakes, here is a link to a serene video of the post-dusk scenery from the SOO LOCKS from Streamtime LIVE. This is from the tower cam in Sault Ste Marie, Michigan. Link: th-cam.com/video/9bGiaeOEahE/w-d-xo.html
Cool shot!
Are you coming to the Amherst railway society show in Massachusetts?
No. We don’t get east often. Love to! But it’s expensive. We really eat to get to Pennsylvania. And West Virginia. And Mane. And….
May I ask for the wed site of the 3D printed parts and the Brass Locomotives please
Figures ‘n bits is the 3D guy. The 3D printed HOn3 cars are Ride Trains. The O scale brass isn’t go sale. He just shows it.
There are several good brass sellers coming to the Ogden show.
