HO Scale Derailment and Fails Part 1-5!

[@bennickss]

The sound of the wheels clanking against the sleepers is the warning that a huge derailment is coming

[@RailsofForney]

To me, that’s a cue to put the thing into reverse and slam the brakes…

[@simonetaormina7080]

I’m so glad you show the reality of HO scale. I have N scale myself and I find much less trouble with them then HO. I’m sure with some track work redone and couplers adjusted it runs great. To those of you just starting remember take your time with your track work , don’t be in a rush just to get trains running quick. All it leads to is making more time fixing track work. Great video still a beautiful layout

[@VestedUTuber]

I think you're looking at N scale with rose-tinted glasses. I'm an N scaler myself and a LOT of this same stuff happens. Although, it's a lot more common on the club layout I run at and its 30 year old Code 55 track that was laid by multiple people over time than on my KATO Unitrak temp layout. Honestly, both scales can have reliability issues. It's highly dependent on how well the track is laid and if the rolling stock has been toleranced properly.

[@thomasfan68]

i crash them on purpose (lightly like runaways and collision) and they dont get scratched

[@Goldarr1900]

I hope no one got hurt, in the making of this very informative video. I never get tired of seeing the hand cranes either..Nothing comes close to hand cranes. As a former owner, foreman engineer and hand crane operator, when I was a kid.. I approve this video 👍

[@davidballoid2118]

I noticed that about half of these derailments are caused by a fresh brand new piece of rolling stock. You should always check the clearances including coupling height use shims where needed. Also on Kay-Dee couplers there is a low hanging pin, may need adjustment. Wheel gauging from flange to flange so they don't pick the track switches. Remember just because it's new doesn't mean it's correctly in specifications.

[@creative7888]

Once I saw the notification pop up, I clicked instantly. Love the edits and the different trains. Awesome video!

When an N-Scale derails it’s an inconvenience. When an H-O scale derails it’s a disaster. When a G scale derails it’s an incident. (And when an O scale derails it’s a fire hazard.)

[@RailsofForney]

And when you have a broad-gauge train derail, (one of the smaller ones, not the 1:1 consists.) That’s dangerous I guess.

[@Cyber_Horse_Studios87]

If you are operating double or triple headed trains on dcc, always be sure you set all locomotives to the same speed.

[@Xalerdane]

I like how roughly half of them are accurate to the real thing (going too fast over switches or around sharp bends) and the rest are ‘and then this guy decided to ruin it for everyone else.’

a little Tip to the couplers at 6:50 . If you put a train at the back of the train that could help the couplers not ripping ( im not really an expert but id like to point it out bc maybe it could help XD )
