    I normally do n gauge, but just bought a t gauge starter set out of curiosity & am loving it. I love the set in this vid! I also love the way the music rocks as the train rolls! Great vid mate!

      This group, plus others, get together most weekday mornings, and it can get quite entertaining.

      I toyed with the idea of listing them as kibitzers in the credits!

    This is amazing! The “T-Scale” is the kind of scale I want to work on.
    I also plan on buying a 3D Printer, because I want to make my own custom T-Scale model of Springfield from “The Simpsons”, it’s also gonna include it’s train and train station.

    music is far too loud and it drowns out the guys speaking. sorry but it is too much piano for me.

    It is unbelievable that they can make a functional model train that small.

    • @twatson703
      @twatson703  ปีที่แล้ว

      That is so true. It even comes with a magnifying glass so you can find the parts.

    I'm going to build a T gauge layout on my G gauge flat car.

    • @twatson703
      @twatson703  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      When you fill the first flat car, you can expand to a second one.

    I have a cute little Z setup, but now I have to get me some T ! The starter kit is great.

    • @twatson703
      @twatson703  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yea, and they don't take up much space.

      Try TGauge.com which is in the UK, or do a Google search for T gauge train sets. In the US, even Amazon has them. There are several choices, so you can shop for price.

    I'm having so much trouble with this set and it's driving me insane. I, for the life of me, can't get the power car coupled to any of the set. The rest of the set comes together great, but the loco has a different coupler that extends out. The tolerances required to get the coupler interlocked make me feel like it's going to snap! Do you have any quick tips? I'm new to this hobby and feel like an idiot being stuck with just having a loco running around alone on track.

    • @twatson703
      @twatson703  หลายเดือนก่อน

      This was five years ago, and I don't think Dennis, who owns this set, has had it out again since then. I do remember that the hardest part was to get the loco and cars properly railed on the track. Once they were correctly railed, they seemed to couple up ok. You definitely need a good powerful magnifying glass to see what is happening. Keep trying and you will eventually get it going.

    As soon as the video started I said "that's train mountains kitchen!" Then the credits rolled in the start.

      That's a good question, and if I remember right they were available in the UK but I don't remember where.

      Hi Christie,
      Did you see the 2018 TM Triennial DVD or BD yet? My footage and Aaron's of you and Ray on the Heisler are in that release. When are you and Ray coming back with the Heisler?

    • @christieedinger6274
      @christieedinger6274 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Tom Watson Yes we have a copy and have watched it several times. Thanks so much for allowing us to be part of that amazing video!. Ray may be bringing the Heisler back with it’s owner in the spring. I will not be playing trains for a while due to a major surgery next mont. I really love Train Mountain and hope I’m able to go along. I had planned to bring my Sweet Creek to Maricoipa in March if I’m well enough. You can see it on the cover of my Facebook page.

    • @twatson703
      @twatson703  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I will be looking forward to seeing Ray and the owner in the Spring if that works out, and best wishes to you on your surgery.

      It is tiny. His other trains are 1/8 th scale. At least he can see them.

    • @twatson703
      @twatson703  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I just did the video so I don't know the exact cost, but I believe he said about $270 US.

    Setting up a train set in four minutes must be some sort of record. Truth be told it took him longer to get it out of the box. Ha ha ha I hope I didn’t give the ending away
