The Most Troublesome Brakevan

[@WoodenRailwayEdward]

I didn't know that you're a history teacher, that's super awesome to hear! I hope to follow a similar career path :)

[@HiroTheJapaneseTrain]

Thanks! Best of luck!

[@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho]

1:35 aw yeah Brio Edward

[@eduardoaguero1220]

I love when people get creative with broken items, really impressive stuff

[@trainfan2k6]

1:35 Cool, it's Brio Edward!

[@SodorTrain1225]

Personally, I don't see the Troublesome Brakevan as rare. That honor goes to the White Face Troublesome Truck. I honestly find it cool that yours can come apart. Now, it's a lot more useful than it would have been in one piece!

[@TankEngineMedia]

I love this troublesome brakevan, it makes it look unique from most (if not) other versions of it. It is a abomination but a cool looking abomination

[@Steamenginesunited3456]

I enjoyed the history references

[@duncanwoodenrailway1735]

haha good to see your love for history hasnt faltered, matt

[@HiroTheJapaneseTrain]

It’s an infection I can’t get rid of. Thanks John! Good to hear from you again.

[@LindseyTate13]

I’ve thought about being a history teacher. Glad you decided to do it. Hope your happy Lindsey

[@HiroTheJapaneseTrain]

It’s a tough job but very rewarding. Thanks for your comment!

[@StoneTankEngine]

This is so true for "rare" wooden toys now White Face Troublesome Truck next👀‼️

[@lamejamestheme]

I've always loved this guy

[@AceW.Kermitcat]

Happened to mine too, I kinda planned to do similar things you did but decided to glued it back together instead.

[@ThePainTrain765]

Honestly it’s not even really broken if you can put it back together

[@mayohoskotwrandttte]

I like your jab at the 1992 collectors and eBay warlords. No way did Roy Wilson ever think wooden blocks on wheels would ever be worth hundreds of dollars and neither did the parents buying them in the 90s. At the end of the day most collectors actually buy troublesome brakevans for use as props and your broken brakevan means for your content it is a better prop. Your brakevan is as versatile as BoCo from old stuck up

Great work matt

[@GoveaWorks]

Please never stop with the History jokes. They have me collapsing harder than the U.S Economy in 1873.

Rare Panic of 1873 moment

[@andydoms2001]

You’re a history teacher?!? Good for you!

[@UsefulEngine11]

I think LNER Flying Scotsman, Roberto did something like this but I can't remember what the context was. I was able to find a Troublesome brakevan that was $100 and I got it basically for myself as a Christmas gift in 2021. As I was given $300 that year so yeah. Mine has a few scratches as well and I got the brown roof version when I really wanted one with a black roof. But hey I'm happy I have one nonetheless and I will say yours is definitely quite unique. Keep up the good work Matt!

There’s more where that came from!

Cute kitty 🐱 you have there @1:23! 😊

[@WC_Audio-Stories]

That item is rare! Man I had no clue u got one lol

[@TrevortheTrainFan]

I have one too in used condition, except mine isn’t broken.

Hazel!

@@HiroTheJapaneseTrain Aww she's adorable 😍 bless her.

[@Nowheres_Channel]

Honestly I didn't even notice it was broken, I thought it just did that. You can probably tell I don't collect wooden railway.

[@sashathetankengine]

Wait… you’re a history teacher? That’s neat… Also I don’t really care about the Troublesome Brakevan… it’s a neat toy. And overpriced.

Anthropomorphized Vehicles 101 would be my go to course

[@shootingstarproductions2530]

I still don't get why the item is called the troublesome brakevan. It looks like a boxcar/van, not a caboose/brakevan. The spiteful Brakevan, I get because it IS a brakevan, but the troublesome brakevan isn't a brakevan. Other than that, you got an excellent deal and I can't wait to see it in future videos.

[@TobyOliverHenryFan]

The Troublesome Brakevan isn't even a brakevan.

[@jasonanderson6583]

FINALIZE SOMEONE ELSE AGREES

[@Nic_2751]

You mean van? Cause that thing ain’t for braking

[@Itai2009MOVIES]

But HiroTheJapaneseTrain, (I say,angrily as I am about to write an angry comment below.) that still doesn’t explain why you took *this* Troublesome Breakvan and took it with the same love that the people of France did for their king during the 1790’s.
