Shady Valley Locomotive Roster [Private] | TRS22

[@thatredfokker]

Error: Accidentally said the name 'Winchester' for both 10 and 11 11 is actually named Mountain City T'was 3-4AM when I was recording so that happens, lmfao

[@TheUndeadHooligan]

Pretty sure Winchester would be the weakest because shes vauclain compound

[@Nicolas-kq3wi]

Btw another error made by you: EBT 14 and 15 ARE built by Baldwin, so that means shady valley bought the same model identical to them to become 6

[@Nicolas-kq3wi]

All the EBT mikes are built by Baldwin so you should correct that

[@TheOklahomaHotrail]

Hey man, have you ever considered selling your content if parts were not used by others, of course, and making some cash? I mean this is top tier!

[@thatredfokker]

@@Nicolas-kq3wi I didn't say 14 and 14 weren't Baldwins. I said SVRR #6 was a copy of 14 and 15.

[@thetoontrain6073]

Very creative roster. I love the idea of 485 eating shit before her turntable incident

[@TheBNSFengineer]

I like the incorporation of 485 into the lore. Gives it that tie into real life in a realistic way.

[@thatredfokker]

Ah yes, the ever popular K-36 is what ties it to real life, lmao

[@TheBNSFengineer]

@@thatredfokker the most recognizable part anyways for most

god I want more of this. Seriously your work on shady valley is amazing.

why are you so cool with fictionals man this is some top tier stuff here

[@eccentric_traveler]

3:26 And I imagine a few pairs of brown pants were collected too.

[@Train_Tok_Man]

1:04. If you’re referring to the real town of Damascus, VA, it’s pronounced “DUH-MASS-CUS” by the locals. Nevertheless though, great video, man. The custom models are very impressive.

[@thatredfokker]

Learned that not long after the video

Why do I feel like number one is just hidden in a shed.

[@mateokuo7502]

This is really neat, good work! Also, what's the first song used in the video?

[@Sleeper____1472]

Sold back to the seller in 2 weeks 💀 Was expecting it to have been sold to the Shady Valley AFTER it had fallen into the pit. Also is the 28 really that more advanced than the 27?

[@thatredfokker]

would've been worthless in the condition it was in following the fall, at least to Wright it would've been, lmao. And assuming you're referring to the K-36, asking if it's that more advanced than the Class 125, just look at em

[@Sleeper____1472]

@@thatredfokker For some reason 485 has always been a K-28 in my head, that makes more sense.

[@neilsonthegreat]

I was wondering does the shady valley do fast frieghts at something like 25-35 mph?

[@kojootti_8394]

any chance you'll make a discord server for your channel? would love to see WIPs of your work on this fictional shortline. :)

Nah, not worth the hassle anymore.

Titanic jumpscare

[@joshbreck3489]

What really confuses me is that after 485 got the torch the Shady Valley didn't use its tender for Winchester as it was more powerful and put either Damascus or Beaverdam as the new helper engine. Oh well this is cuckoo A.J. Wright we are talking about

[@thatredfokker]

Winchester is primarily a helper, so it would've been unecessary Damascus is a lone road engine so it needed that for longer runs as said in the video.

[@joshbreck3489]

Oh okay, can’t wait to hear about number 9’s run in against a GODDARN TORNADO

[@nathanlerma9891]

I can't wait to hear more stories these engines were involved in

[@angryrailfan4501]

What whistle did you use for No. 11? It sounds great!

[@thatredfokker]

the one from RDR2, whatever that's based off of

[@alanabyss9246]

What’s Number 9s top speed?

[@thatredfokker]

During the tornado chase of April 7th 1912, she was rumored to have hit speeds up to 60mph, going by the engineer's guess.

[@raymondranger3080]

What a shady review 😂. In all seriousness awesome job! Loved the roster tho shame about 485

[@Challenger3985Productions]

I bet the shady valley railroad still operates to this day as a preservation railroad

[@jaytwobeetwo]

What happened to No. 1? Did it get scrapped?

[@thewabashguy]

Number 4 is my fav out of them all, even though im not a huge Shay fan

[@pennsy6755]

Uh quick question. Is Wright immortal? Because the more I look into the lore of this railroad, the more I’m questioning if he’s even human in the first place. Also there any plans for like a _very_ small tangent of standard gauge?

[@thatredfokker]

Mentioning standard gauge will result in a lit stick of dynamite marked 'SVRR' arriving at your doorstep

[@CaptainPip]

We’re do I get the shady valley mod ?

[@CaptainPip]

@ThatRedFokker I would really like this mod because I work at a narrow gauge railway and one of the locomotives looks a lot like one of the locomotives that mainly run there if you’re wondering about the railway, it is the WWF railway :) it will bring me great smiles if you don’t or say no I understand😅

[@joshbreck3489]

It’s private, only he owns it. And no he is not gonna make it public

[@cozmoandfriends9238]

Very impressive roster

[@WestleySagner]

What about Number 1?

[@t-12productions15]

No 1 was a cog engine for the batshit crazy 1st attempt at the Shady Valley

[@bradleybarry3426]

I'm assuming it was either sold for scrap or sent to Pikes Peak in Colorado. This is due to a brief scene in the first video where #1 was on a flat car next to #2. Edit: Or did A. J. Wright do something else with it?

[@mr.meloetta1939]

​@@bradleybarry3426 not gonna lie, I think Fokker missed an opportunity to have the cog engine be converted to some bizzare switcher/maintenance engine

[@thatredfokker]

@@mr.meloetta1939 I legitimately would but given that it's standard gauge that would be way too much of a hassle to compact down, better to just sell it and then buy an as-is 3-footer, which is how #2 came to be

9 is freelanced correct?

[@thomasweekley9209]

@@thatredfokker maybe a 2-6-2 tank, a 2-6-0, a 2-8-2 tank, or a 2-8-0? Edit: I did a couple of drawings based on ideas of what #8 should be. First I did a 2-4-4-2 mallet then I did a 2-8-0 heavily based on the D&RGW C-19 consolidation

The East Tennessee & Western North Carolina, affectionately known as "The Tweetsie", was a most unusual line having both standard and narrow gauge lines on its system, which ran from Johnson City, Tennessee to Boone, North Carolina, a total of 65.3 miles, not including a 2.6 mile branch from Montezuma to Pineola. Although the standard gauge portion of the line survives to this day, the 3-foot gauge trackage was abandoned in 1950. As the train winds its way along 3-foot gauge line, we are guests in the caboose, and later on, in the cab of the little Baldwin engine. Winding through the Doe River Gorge, we're reminded of other narrow gauge lines much farther West - how lucky we are to have this record of this wonderful line. Although the narrow gauge portion of Tweetsie closed down in 1950, Engine number 12, Combine/Chair 15, and Excursion Car 11 are still in service as tourist hauler at Blowing Rock, North Carolina, also known as "The Tweetsie". As the Crew goes about their daily business, of setting out, picking up freight cars, and caring for the little Baldwin, we are treated to sights long forgotten in modern railroading. It is interesting to note from the company time table, dated October 15th 1883, that, quoting; "Through the gorge, and at all points where the rock or land slides are possible and in descending heavy grades trains must be kept under perfect control, and speeds must not exceed 6 miles per hour" end quote. And also the time table cautioned, "Trains must not under any circumstances run at a higher rate of speed than 15 miles per hour.". Have you ever seen a brakeman working his way over the tops of the cars with a brake club?

[@jamesbuckner4791]

That was a very common practice, especially on Saluda and the heavier grades further south as well.
