Jim Zimmerlin holy moly dude! your thread had more BS chinese/asian spam than ive ever seen on one persons thread. somehow you are like a magnet for that crap. im about ready to mute this thread.
Jim Zimmerlin could you please do a review of the white pass and Yukon route diesel because it was the railroad that made my interest in trains become a obsession when I was three years old and I recently went to ride the white pass and Yukon route
Beautiful!! Kudos to your family who put up with your toys! As a child in 1950, my family had Lionel steam locomotive that belched smoke when a special white tablet was inserted in the stack. My dad only set it up on special occassions. What a treat!
my grandpa used to have a whole room in his house where he had a whole huge model train set, where me and him would just go for hours, but he took it all down and packed it way a few years ago, and watching this video braought back so many great memories
I´m 54 years old and when I was a kid, I never had a Lionel miniature electric train; but I had a Trian-g (I´m not sure if I wrote correctly the trademark) one. It was very elaborated too. What a nostalgic moment for me! Thanks for share this video. Greetings from Venezuela.
I just cannot undrstand the (so many) dislikes in this video. Generally, if someone doesn't like train models ,can simply avoid watching. It is absolutely meaningless to watch this video and then.... dislike it. About this video in particular....the man has a small place.....still has done a beautiful work!!!
You have to love LGB!-a carpet is all the ballast you need!The day after Thanksgiving every year my son and I go hiking: if it's raining we bring the trains up and do exactly what you are doing in this video.
Man! We found your page while getting our small kids excited about their first Liberty of the Seas but then when we found your train videos...wow! My son is in love and chooses these over Netflix shows! Thanks for making fun videos!
Nothing wrong with this ! (Did it also, many years ago ! ) LOL...gotta love, 1:02 when it creeps around the corner..The pet bowl..Bet that really makes them eat fast ! Nice job.. enjoy !
I watched this iconic video when I was 3 or 4 years old! I searched for this video for a long time and finally found! This is a very cool movie 😎👍 Best regards 👋
Very cool!! One shot that I, and others, find mesmerizing, and you almost have it, is when two trains are running on tracks that are next to each other with slightly varying curves. This layout would work as it is if only the trains would be running side by side in the same direction or opposite directions. As the cars are doing their 'train thing' it's awesome to see them snaking around next to each other. You almost have it on your pinned video here--all you would need to get that effect is have the trains passing each other and/or running side by side but shoot it from above to catch the snaking effect :-) I had this going on with a beautiful and complex Marklin z gauge at a children's center and groups of adults and kids would often be standing in silence as the trains glided around doing this = just like heaven...
Wow awesome set-up if you leave alone hehe...well if you have people around or even kids they might step on the trains and act as big giants ready to destroy your trains LOL!
My son is probably responsible for at least 1k of these views! He is 3 and he is enthralled with this video and all things trains. Thanks for providing a video that has brought him so much joy!
I think was somewhere around $10,000 for all the model train equipment involved in this video. I actually acquired even more in the years since. If you look though some of the other model train videos on my channel, you'll find some huge outdoor layouts involving even more cost than this one. It was all bought with the ad revenue from my TH-cam videos.
This is amazing! It shows what you can do with a little imagination and the right attitude! I've seen your videos before but just realized you're only an hour away from me. Looking forward to what comes next.
My trains ate up 80% of my bedroom space at one time but it was sure was fun for the year I had the layout. Nice variety of trains you have there as well.
It would be very rare for a kid to have $15,000 worth of model trains to play with. Almost always when you see a big collection of G scale model trains like this, the person running them is a retired boomer who has saved and invested well over the years. So, that's why it's wife, not mother.
Thank you for this video! My almost 2 year old daughter loves watching this multiple times a day. She asks to see the 'Choo Choo' and gets upset if I make her turn it off. Her favorite train is the Steam Engine. Maybe consider making another video of your model trains featuring an appearance of your dog. She saw the crate and water bowl and kept looking for the 'woof woof'.
Oh, so you're responsible for about a million of the six million views! ha ha ha The dog actually does make a special appearance at the very end of another one of my train videos: th-cam.com/video/yoxy-g0X_YM/w-d-xo.html
The title of the video is "Every One Of My Model Trains Appears In This Video" and "appears" is the key word. Not all the trains run in the video, but they all appear at some point. The Porter appears a couple of times, but it doesn't actually run in the video. Since the LGB model of the Porter doesn't have any built-in sound effects, I don't think of it as a particularly exciting model train... so, I don't run it in very many videos. Usually if it's in a video, it plays a background role. But it did have larger roles in a couple of videos over the years.
Ya Know Jim if you Look Up LGB motorized tender with sound it’s for small steam engines like the porter you can run the porter with sound the tender will make a chugging sound when powered 🆙
Hey Jim, I really love your LGB layout and also your lokomotives and waggons. Im just really impressed that a LGB video could reach more than 30 million views, this is really really impressive. I wish you good luck for christmas (your presents) and just stay how you are. LG Philipp (LGB SCHMALSPURBAHNER)
A lot of people, actually! Approximately 500,000 different people watched it a total of 960,000 times in just the last 90 days, according to the TH-cam data.
If you like this video, another one of mine that you might like is th-cam.com/video/FESpCJBPY18/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for letting me know, Armando!
Jim Zimmerlin y so many views?
This dude must get ALL the chicks!
I LOVE♥
Jim Zimmerlin How do you control the reversing loops
To see an even more elaborate LGB train layout I set up inside my house, take a look at th-cam.com/video/MMVZxWKB-Ls/w-d-xo.html
+Jim Zimmerlin Where did you get the White Pass & Yukon RR Diesel??

you need to put some lil toy cars, ppl and cows on those tracks to make it more realistic. lol

Great video, and great trains! Marvelous how the carpet manages to deaden the extrinsic sound.
my grandpa used to have a whole room in his house where he had a whole huge model train set, where me and him would just go for hours, but he took it all down and packed it way a few years ago, and watching this video braought back so many great memories
I remember watching this and loving it
I love it and the way they go all around the house gives a huge layout with a lot of different turns
That sound though! ... it sucks being a kid in the 80s... I’m going to do the stuff now with the little one 🤣🤣
you have made my childhood
thank you jim zim
I really liked the ATSF and the WP&Y trains they looked great

This has got to be one of the most mentally stimulating and visually satisfying videos on youtube. Right on, man.

Hi
Wow trains everywhere in the house! Awesome!
Awesomeness
It looks like a lot of fun!!!
Good movie !! Choo choo 🚂🚃🚋🚃🚋🚃🚋
Pretty cool turning radius
I wish I could do the same,but found trains don't run on carpet.Loved your video."Here they come through "Dogdsh Pass"
This brings back memories
that's excellent. now my biggest question is how is your wife reacting to all the tracks all over the house ..
My granddaughter and I loved it. Thank you.
They're all over the house because they are it's a train yard
Wife? Or mother?
It would be very rare for a kid to have $15,000 worth of model trains to play with. Almost always when you see a big collection of G scale model trains like this, the person running them is a retired boomer who has saved and invested well over the years. So, that's why it's wife, not mother.
Jim Zim, it’s my first time putting a comment below and I never do that before it’s my first time doing it but those trains were awesome
Cool video
amazing sound quality sir which matches every inch of the video
Very nice and good job

The Santa Fe sounds like a UFO sound based
The best thing about these locomotives is their sound and horn, pretty realistic, This won't be cheap anyway i want :D
Hey Jim It me agin I want to say in you video named “every model train will show up in this video” I never saw the porter steam train running
The title of the video is "Every One Of My Model Trains Appears In This Video" and "appears" is the key word. Not all the trains run in the video, but they all appear at some point. The Porter appears a couple of times, but it doesn't actually run in the video.

Ya Know Jim if you Look Up LGB motorized tender with sound it’s for small steam engines like the porter you can run the porter with sound the tender will make a chugging sound when powered 🆙
And if ya want a cool porter steam train I suggest the LGB stains steam locomotive from 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
The stains has sound built in it😊
Superb! Thank you for sharing :)
AWESOME!!!!! Thank you for sharing and there is always room for trains. Keep up the good work.
Wow, so i'm not the only adult with a little kid inside!
very nice train travel pictures video
Those are some nice looking trains
When the weather outside is frightful;..then bring the train inside...!
I love your trains Jim
Dang bro,you make me to the childhood memories :')
