Neil Young with his toy trains

[@wendy040ca]

Neil often has this effect on me...I'm grinning from ear to ear while the tears roll down my face. I've loved the man since 1979, and the more I learn about Neil, the more impressed I am by him. He is truly a wonderful human being. I'm always at a loss for words when trying to express my respect and admiration for him. If only there were more people like Neil in this world...

[@taralee8451]

I wish every disabled kid could have a Dad like Neil. He truly has a "heart of gold". :)

[@Dohdk]

I think it actually is Neil's son. He has a son who is handicapped :)

[@taralee8451]

Yes, his name is Ben and he has Cerebral Palsy. :)

[@FireHorse11291966]

A beautiful family Neil, I’ve always enjoyed the music through the years growing up and to see you like this with your family. God Bless you and your family. Thanks muddy for the upload.

This is why Neil is the Man! He turns down hundreds of shows, interviews, apperance oppertunities and almost never lets the kids be photographed...only to show up on Nickalodeon playing with trains. Beautiful segment!

[@GilsMusic]

Awesome! Thanks for posting. I actually have an issue of MicroTimes with Neil Young on the cover in a conductor's hat and scarf around 1994 when He fisrt started this.

[@Radbradical]

Neil is the real deal. This is wonderful to watch.

[@ford9572]

[@yahowa57]

He had his entire layout at the Horde festival stop in Costa Mesa at a booth and hung out for a while and talked to fans. He performed with Crazy horse that night in the ampitheatre and they gave an awesome performance(1997)

[@krcm1981]

Keep Me Searching For A Heart Of Gold. Love ya Neil.

[@harrysagma]

i listen to neil from 1979,i didnt know abiut his son,i live in greece,and i think neil is the man

[@sudriansignalman9387]

people ask me why I collect them, and this is why, when you are running it at a model club, a little boy might come up and ask you to blow the whistle, and to see the smile on a kids face when you do it, even just to see it, makes all the time, effort, and money worth it

[@tequilabop]

what an amazin man. thank you

[@paulthesinger]

Thanks for this Muddy, I've wanted to see this for a long time

[@mydogwhiskey]

[@bwild61]

Lionel Trains Forever!

[@jfsssp]

Neil Young is a hero. "Throw your weapons down", pick up your trains.

[@nicholasdala]

Way to go Neil

[@AusGovOfficial]

Cutest rock musician ever.

[@yuric4311]

[@GeraltinWoW]

very heartwarming

[@ramonthe3rd]

Neil is god for me. Be happy neil. You have already completed your mission hehehehehehe

[@jimmyleon2983]

Very cool.

[@NightRanger77]

One of a kind

[@videoblast]

To go vhs to digital you will need an analog to digital converter box. Pinnacle makes them both RCA plug to FIRE WIRE, and RCA to USB. Pinnacle Studio 9 Movie Box is what I use. I use fire wire and load straight to wmm or i-movie. It also deletes the copywright protection so you can copy dvd's and such

[@mcaddicts]

Didn't take Neil as a toy train guy. Nice him and his son can bond.

[@AbeStation89]

well, thank you

[@kruemelausbb]

Klasse😊💞👍👍👏

[@wendy040ca]

@roqueandrolle His half-sister's name is Astrid. His daughter's name is Amber Jean.

[@flxmkr]

Did you actually videotape your tv? LOL. Reminds me of the good ol' days when we'd call in a request to our local radio station; tape recorder perched next to the radio and fingers on the play/record button. But then someone would enter the room and mess it up. How could they NOT know that silently jumping up and down and frantically waving arms and hands meant, "Be quiet! I'm recording!"

[@timmancillas8326]

Just when I thought I couldn’t like Neil Young any more.

[@AbeStation89]

That's great, did'nt he write Transformer man about his son? i think i read somewhere that he did.

[@onyachamp]

wow.makes me feel worthless when you see people like this making a real difference to the world around them

[@hodaka1000]

@lionellance He's got nice cars to.

[@mydogwhiskey]

where did this come from?

[@mudman38104]

I would suggest you take a large dose and experience flight.

[@tequilabop]

[@skydogclub]

[@tachunka1968]
