military custom ho scale train 124 cars

[@CraftyFoxeMC]

I didn't think anyone would have these in HO, but lo and behold, there it is!

[@stevenspaziani9159]

Those 2 4000 locomotives looked good. I'm an engineer for CSX and love the SD 40 locomotives.

[@pokeyrailfanning]

Steven Spaziani yeah me too! But those were Sd 40-3 locomotives I don’t like how square the cab and nose is but the 40-2 is just perfect one day I hope to work for Canadian National! Have fun out there on the railroad it’s a life worth living your always doing something you enjoy 😏

[@HomerInNC]

Wow, brings back memories of my army days and loading vehicles on the rail head for JRTC & NTC. I wanna do a set up like this

[@bipolar64]

WOW...Amazing collection, especially ALL my favorite modern military vehicles, construction equipment and trailers. I'm more into 1:35 scale RC but that is the best train set ever, thanks for uploading.

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

thank you for the comments

[@Nitro_likes_cars]

DANG THAT IS A LOT OF CARS

[@normanmcgill2369]

Best military train I have ever seen. Really looks great. Nice job.

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Thank You for the nice comments. I try hard to build and sell a quality product. A lot of the cars are for sale. Keep in mind they are custom painted and secured and chained and intended to stay as is. Thank You Ralph

[@keeganseva3975]

3:47 That UN Truck and Trailer look sharp! Something I've never seen on any HO Scale model military train.... I want it haha 6:57 Loving the Red Cross trucks as well. Love the mid-DPU (times 2). especially that you added in foreign power locomotives to the mix. Thanks for sharing this impressive train. subscribed

[@normhowe87]

This is a very nice train! Certainly realistic with lots of variety of equipment. Norm Howe.

[@gordonmarch126]

Glad I’m not on that poor bus! Spectacular

[@Nightprideenclave_studio]

So what it just railroad layout

[@shak0009]

fantastic work and I know its stressful when engine cut out or couplers disconnect but understandable when you have over a 100 cars. Not easy to do.

[@badman187ification]

The longest n coolest train ever!!! Amazing work!!!👍👍👍✌

[@leogasnil398]

Nice Military Train videos.

[@Meyblc70]

Nice to see the club's DCC is playing nicely....lol. Speed up, slow down, slam to a start, jerk start. Nice.

[@thomasboese3793]

It's all those "used" electrons, the power company needs better equipment to sent only "brand new" electrons.

[@colossalbigfoot256]

WOw! I can’t imagine the cost of the load. Where’d you get all the HEMTT’s? They look awesome!

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

All loads are available on the internet, you just have to look for them. Most are from Roco- Herpa- Minitanks. All are custom painted, some with decals and then loaded on cars and chained.

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Looks like my day at work today... Need couple gensets, on second thought ours never work use the geeps instead.. Great job

[@sarge4455]

Awesome love the details

[@deanrice9850]

Where did you get all the military equipment from?!?!!!!??

[@mikeberthold1593]

Great video a really cool video of military train load to be honest with you that had it probably cost $5,000 with the engines the rail cars in all the vehicles

[@mikewhite767]

Wow that’s the longest Ho model train I’ve ever seen I especially love those locomotives thank you for showing us your video! Oh by the way I subscribed to your channel.

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Thank you sir, New video out today

[@andysvehiclehistorychannel]

Who makes the trucks I'd love to get a few what a great video

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Mainly Herpa, roco, minitanks. Some are Arsenal M. Look on Ebay for them. Check out my new video of 3d printed itmes coming ouit today.

[@jakeatom4841]

How long is each car, and how many cars are there? I want to see how long that train would be IRL

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

89 foot cars. Maybe about 124 cars. The entire train I have is longer, thats just what I was running that day.

[@Crookedriverandeasternrr]

Holy smokes that’s a lot of military might on that train. Awesome video. Thanks for sharing I liked and subbed to your channel 👍😃

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Thank You for the nice comments. I'm a custom car builder as my videos show. I'm on the east coast selling my product. See my website ralphstrains.com

Absolutely amazing

[@paulstewartcrane]

Phenomenal !

[@maycondeivisferrari7422]

CONGRATULATIONS.....BRAZIL HERE

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Are you the guy that bought the O scale inventory from me?

[@normanbrunt2053]

It must of cost a lot of money to get all those vehicles and railroad cars to make up the train. How did you make up the realistic tie-downs to secure the vehicles to the cars?

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

As far as the money is concerned, lets say I have more than $1 invested. Each one is custom painted and some decal ed. All chains are tight and the equipment is secured, just like the real world. I buy glue by the case. Thank You, Cars are for sale. I am on schedule to have 300 plus cars by the time I am done.

[@ArloB]

@@ralphstrainsllc6409 hi where can I buy some of these ho army cars from you?

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

@@ArloB All the military are custom made. Go to ralphstrains.com and use the contact spot and drop me an email and i will give you direct email and or phone to contact me. We then talk about what you want and like and we price it up. Most of the cars you see in the train are over $200. They are assembled, custom painted and then loaded and then chained. They would come with car.

[@JohnFKennedy1964]

Where did you get the military vehicle models?

[@starlightdragon2665]

I was watching these go by and said "Oh this looks like a mix of engineers and armored cav; was waiting for tanks to come through." But no this is engineering and armored cavalry. Really cool setup; seems like it derailed though

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Thank You sir, There is another video or two that have the M1 tanks and other artilery if you would like to watch them.

[@starlightdragon2665]

@@ralphstrainsllc6409 good to know and keep doing what you do best.

[@croutonbuildsstuff1367]

What flat cars did you use?

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

I use mainly Atlas DODX and Walthers flats. Both in 89 foot adn 60 foot. I will use just about anything I like to see. Thank You

[@IronHorseModelRailroad]

124 cars? I am still trying to get 10 all together ! :-) Very Impressive! Something to shoot for!~

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

I sell them. [e-mail] adn we can talk

[@JCmilwaukee]

Do you have a website ware you get the different hemtt trucks?

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

most hemtt models in this train are made by minitanks, roco or herpa. basically the same company now. there are trucks out there that are 3d printed. some good some bad. find everything on the internet or common places like stores, amazon or ebay

[@deoncoleman5403]

Hey who makes those military equipment in ho scale

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Minitanks, Roco, Trident, Herpa and others

[@dwightstjohn6927]

I' d love to see this weathered but that would take a year!!!

[@Shaun7186]

Where did u get those military vehicles from?

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

I buy them off the internet. some are plastic kits, some are resin 3d. look on line or on ebay

[@carldean5987]

I bet getting all those military vehicles weren't cheap neither

[@stuartsutton8633]

Cool video. Where did you get those cranes at the beginning of the train?

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Cranes made by NZG over 10 years ago. Hard to find

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

The cranse were made in the late 90's and early 2000's by NZG out of Germany. Super hard to find. They made i believe 12 paint versions. Good luck the ones you see are NZG painted.

[@rockyfanatic6846]

You could make helper sets

[@santafewarbonnetproductions]

i feel bad for the people at the crossing lol

[@chrisrobertson3189]

Impressive!

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Ed I don’t know why you would think it’s fake? These are all real ho scale models cars that I have built. It’s a real time run around our model railroad club. Cbw-Mrc.com I hand built each load. I build custom cars in almost any scale for the model railroad industry. Ralphstrains.com This is not a real army train

[@rockyfanatic6846]

Real life DPU locomotives on those trains same with the John Deere train would be in the ground immediate

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Only if that was an NS trian would they be on the ground

[@cpmodels5105]

Congratulations, however missed ABRAMS and M113

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Check out todays video. M1a's , M992 and M109's in it.

[@GBW21806e]

Does this train represent an actual army unit?

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

Nope, just my imagination. I run what I like to see. No miltary experience at all.

[@rockyfanatic6846]

Put a fox car behind the engines as a buffer

[@sreggird60]

Great excuse for the kids in the school bus for being late for school.

[@rigodemus6474]

dang how much money you spent to make a train like that ??

I'll tell you as long as you dont tell my wife, $$,$$$,$$ And now its twice as long.

Because CSX has the contract to haul military equipment actually.

This is fake. Look carefully... Why I don't know.

[@thomasboese3793]

Not "fake" a "Model" of many different prototypes.

HO scale models. For enjoyment.

[@garbagemanify]

thats a 3,000 dollar train Boyz'....hempopotamusloudspeakers.com

[@ralphstrainsllc6409]

You better sharpen your pencil. Your a little bit low. Each Military crane load would sell for $200 plus alone. The cranes are no longer available on the market.
