Our MASSIVE Model Train Project Just Got Better?

[@jingles9657]

The fact that I don't have the room to build f-scale means I am entirely living vicariously through this project lol

[@ToyManTelevision]

Fun!!! Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy it for a long time to come! We work slow…..

[@michaelchapman6895]

Please do a programme on your F scale locomotives. Tell us about the fleet. You have so many you're a regular Otto Mears! 👍

Fantastic!!!!!! I bet Karyn can make some Christmas wreaths out of the beads for the village for the holiday. Dale and Karyn, you are the Masters! How you are rebuilding this light pole is really cool. A great husband and wife team all the way around.

[@ToyManTelevision]

@@growclipbonsaiforseniors1951 Hi again!! Thanks! I was hoping to put up more Christmas lights today. But toooo cooooold. Anyway finished the light pole instead. Short if paint and the mounting system. Stay warm! Geeeezzzz.

[@JPilot2]

G'day, Toy Man, and Karyn! Great video, guys! Hope you know... "You too are a great team!!" I also, enjoy seeing these glimpses into Garage Mahal. Reminds you of "Show-and-Tell" in which each participant produces an object of interest and tells something about it. (loved it!) By the way... Your Massive Model Train Project... (Answer: yes!) Keeps getting Better, and Better, And even Better!! Thank you very much! Cheers! 😊🏡❤🚂 P.S. I would tell you folks, my autumn joke, but you probably wouldn't fall for it. Lol!🤣

[@ToyManTelevision]

@@JPilot2 lol!!! Hi! Er… G’day! Thanks! I wanted to put up more Christmas lights on the layout today. But just too darn cold! Off to the south land this weekend. Play trains there! Thanks for watching and the kind words! G’by! Er… is G’by a thing?

[@JPilot2]

​@@ToyManTelevision Yes! Your Welcome! It's a short, simple, informal greeting. It’s short for Good day. As in “hope you’re having a good day”.😊 It’s a nice term to put someone at ease.

Hey big guy its gunny and talked to you in a while, i wanted to say hi and hope you n your wife had a great Christmas and New year's i havent been able to do much last month or so, but ive started collecting and buying ho rail cars and i haven't bought any engines yet but ill get there, i learned and awful lot ever since i joined your channel and watched your videos and your wife is incredible smart when it comes to making and building things, watching ya'll move and turn the garage into an awesome play room and i noticed your mustains they are beautiful WOW I guess i must have been sleeping this morning was the 1st time id seen them they are really gorgeous my compliments take care have fun screwing around

[@williampalmer8052]

Large scale model trains and classic Mustangs? Must be nice! I remember when G gauge was getting popular in the US, and always wanted to build an outdoor narrow-gauge logging railroad with geared locomotives. Nice to see all your work!

[@FunAtDisney]

Always fun to figure projects out (as long as it’s not the home plumbing or electrical!)

[@ToyManTelevision]

@@FunAtDisney lol! But yea, screwing around is improving. Improvising. Innovating.

[@ToyManTelevision]

It is! We assume! I want to close that gap in the track. And finish the basic canyon. The village on the Cliff? Probably not. But who knows?

I think McGyver would give you 5 stars! lol thanks for the update to see where everything Is currently at!

[@MygrandpasTrain]

this video was great! Love the informal style and it was nice to see progress on the railroad. As Fall and winter set in, biggest problem for me is deciding which projects to do first!

[@historybuff7491]

Yes, this was fun. Good luck with all your projects (or the one big project ... however you look at it). I liked seeing the bead weaving. I am finishing up a doll, and clothes, all in beads. I find this art form very relaxing. Having the magnifiers on, with the light pointed on the beads, it allows me to really focus on the beads, and the outside world fades away. The beaded doll is a challenge (to myself) because a local art show took out doll making, but left bead weaving in.

[@ToyManTelevision]

Thanks for watching! Wow!!!!! That’s amazing! Karyn has several dolls all made from beads. 😊😊😊🚀🚂🚀🚂🤩

[@historybuff7491]

@@ToyManTelevision Wow, great.

[@pinchy08]

Well Winter is closing in. So I hope the outdoor portion of your railroad will be in good shape come Spring 2025.

[@ToyManTelevision]

It usually winter quite well!😊

[@daviemaclean61]

Fun indoors and out. I had almost forgotten you keep cars in there too! ;-)

[@WVS-KFD]

I'd like to see a show about your brass collection. It looks great!

[@ToyManTelevision]

We covered most of that stuff in the collectors attic series. I think we covered all of those things. Sadly, we didn’t run any of them because we don’t have any place to run them!

[@loispadgett6306]

That was fun seeing what you are up to. That lamp post is going to look great when you put it out at Grapevine. The key chain beading project looks great. Nice dermal tool Karyn it saved the day. GOD BLESS 🚂💕🚂💕🚂💕🚂💕

[@ToyManTelevision]

Thanks for the comment!!! As always !!!!! !!!! Blessings to you too!

[@azmike1]

So you have to rework the whole enchilada. And you're the guy to do it! Everything looks great! Love the cars! I didn't know. Inspirational!

[@ToyManTelevision]

Yep, the basic structure will remain but all the electrics including the plug at the base are all going to be different now. In fact, I’m getting rid of that base and replacing it with a through the benchwork base so that it just goes straight down onto the wood platform. Looks much better that way, but it requires a very stable mount. Because there’s wind, there’s snow, and of course there’s squirrels!

[@mowermanone1621]

Very good thank you for the update. Thank you for your work.

[@ToyManTelevision]

My pleasure! Thanks for the compliment 😊😊😊😊🚀🚂🚀🚂

[@bryantsemenza38]

Wow. Never give up. Actually you are making it better that factory made. Trainz has some great items and very accommodating if there should be a problem.

[@ToyManTelevision]

Very true! Great people!!!

[@stevenbeardsley218]

Just love you two thanks for your videos God bless .

[@DJPLAST2]

Nice to see you saved $20.00 bucks. Too bad you spent 3 or 4 days fixing the used/returned lamp. What the heck, you got nothing but time on your hands and you’ve got all winter to get things working! Such a deal!

[@ToyManTelevision]

@@DJPLAST2 well.. the goal is having fun! And cutting into $50 lamp isn’t something I’m comfortable with doing. But a free disused lamp… well SCORE! I’m about 5 days and $25 into it. But dang it’s FUN!

[@AndrewJohnson-ur3lw]

I have not seen one small enough but how about a spring clip to hold the sign onto the post. If you can't get one small enough you could make one.

[@ToyManTelevision]

That was my original plan but last night I hit on something different. Since the top comes off quite easily when changing the lightbulbs and so on, I’ve rigged up a sleeve so that the entire sign section just slides down over the post and then locks in place. Now that I say that out loud, I can see a serious problem with it! Sounds like I’m going to be redesigning again.

[@AndrewJohnson-ur3lw]

@@ToyManTelevision another idea - secured by a piece of wire twisted around the pole attached to rear of sign.

[@ToyManTelevision]

@ thought about that. But as long as I use the small electrical plug that can pass through the sleeve I can mount the signs on a tube and just slide it over the center pole. I built it last night and assembled the light except for the base which I haven’t built yet, anyway it works! I wish I could post a photo. Well I can! In the community tab!! I’ll try.

Are you planning to come to St. George area for the Color Country Model Railroad layout tour for this year? It is this week November 8-11
