Shunting With Steam | Model Railway Steam Train Gala

[@masterofsouthern5427]

You just can’t beat heritage railways so much history and character with each loco and rolling stock Thank for bringing back the memories Sam 🙂

[@SamsTrains]

Absolutely - wonderful places to go! It's a pleasure mate! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@sonicsupersam7793]

I remember your shunting sessions from a couple years ago! Please bring them back, shunting is so therapeutic! In fact, I think I might put a shunting layout on top of one of my shelves. I’ll have to do some measurements first though, it’s mainly depth I’m thinking about. It would be nice to take the train away at the end too, if there’s enough room.

[@Sparky129]

This video was a great reminder about heritage railways and stuff like museums that do need our support. Also this video format was fun, especially when you were trying not to cause a crash. That was honestly my favourite part. Happy to see the castle and Maude though.

Thank goodness for gigantic hands! Also great video Sam, it’s great that you’re supporting the heritage railways. You’re lucky in Britain with how many there are and how many beautiful steam trains you can see. Unfortunately in Australia heritage railways are far and few. When the pandemic is over I would love to come to Britain and visit some of the heritage lines and see some steam! Something to put on the bucket list!

I am from Leeds and there used to be a Railway up here called Midleton Railway (The world's oldest continuously working public railway) but sadly a while ago some Kids set fire to a Jewsen's which ended up causing fires in Midleton Railway itself, thankfully as of what I have seen, most of it survived. I always use the railway as a way tp get across that part of the town as it is a straight line (and you are allowed to walk on it).

[@thephoenixking1086]

I say there used to be, By this I mean it got burned down, the railway and most of the building is still there, I just don't think it will be running again for a while, not sur e though. They used to have a Christmas Train and so on.

So sorry to hear about that - disgusting what some people get up to. Hopefully all is okay there :( Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@Zebrails]

It's a beautiful thing you've displayed. My "thumbs-up" was number 4-4-4. In Canada, that would be a Jubilie Class steam locomotive. Your purpose is/was well understood and accepted. My location has a heritage locomotive, but due to the situation at hand, has kept its doors closed. My location also has the "Rocky Mountaineer Rail Tour" based here in Kamloops, but again, cancelled all trains. So, the only moving fair are the freights and a few times a week VIA Rail passenger trains. Making matters worse presently is fire smoke and now a freight train derailment at one of the river corridor passes. Keep up the videos... all of them. I very much like the variety you provide. Themes and special occasions bring one single mode of importance: Running Trains. And you do that well. Close calls and any imperfections make your videos "Perfect Fodder" for viewing pleasure... while your commentary is duly complimentary as offerings and certainly keep away any tort of boredom. Sam, I'm across the big pond and a land mass, a nice six hour journey from the next big puddle. I am entertained and close to being 52 and happy that you reviewed Illinoise Central 4-6-0 Number 382 because, as I said on your FB page, I finally bought one by divine availability... and your supportive commentary. You are doing a fine job. Thank you. John

[@reconphil]

I liked this video very much, more like it would be nice. I used to build rolling stock and once even attempted a steam loco (back in the late 1960s). Because of your videos, I have begun to purchase used rolling stock and locomotives and intend to set up a layout. I intend to start with DC; I am buying all older equipment and repairing it, where necessary. We have some Heritage Railways in the area. One that is nice is the CASS Railroad in West Virginia. It was a logging railroad and runs several Shay Locomotives.

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks very much! That sounds fantastic - great to hear you're getting back into things! Can't fault DC - it's still a great way to go! Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@railtwister]

Hi Sam, Bachmann decoders may be crippled, and not allow this feature, but one of the more basic advantages of DCC decoders is being able to adjust the voltage for each speed step. One of the best and easiest ways to do this is through the use of a computer interface such as the SPROG 2 or 3, and JMRI’s DecoderPro software. You might need to change out the Bachmann decoder for one that is more easily adjustable, but maybe not, try it out and see.

[@SamsTrains]

That's interesting Bill, I'll look into this for sure - thank you!`Thanks for watching - Sam :)

As soon as Disneyland re-opens I’ll be riding the Disneyland Railroad which is indeed a “heritage” railroad. We do have a lot in the US and they are such an important look back to the past, as well as going to our many historic railroad museums and model railroad clubs and associations. Yes, support them all!

[@SamsTrains]

Yeah I guess technically it is - it's been there for the best part of a century! Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@FunAtDisney]

Sam'sTrains Although the original two locomotives (4-4-0) were designed and built by Walt Disney Imaginering, formally WED (Walter E Disney) Enterprises, the other three locos that were added later were a 1894 (2-4-4T), 1902 (2-4-4T) and 1925 (2-4-0 porter) Baldwins. These were restored and each has a unique livery. All the locos are steam with diesel as their fuel. So those are truly “heritage” engines. But yes the entire Disneyland Railroad is also considered a heritage railroad and is on the US historical registry. Aa side note, nearby Knott’s Berry Farm’s narrow-gauge railroad is also heritage as those trains and locos came from the old Denver & Rio Grande Railroad and they have a very unique Galloping Goose railcar (you need to look that up if you haven’t seen one!) Cheers and I do enjoy your videos! (Interestingly I get daily email updates from a guy in the UK (Devon) named Alastair Lee sand his Model Railway Layouts Plans site.)

In terms of supporting local heritage railways. My family will be making a donation to our local railway, the Severn Valley, And I Myself will start volunteering once again a couple of times every month like I used to do before all this started.

Hi mate, I know you've got your layout on the floor but would you ever consider doing like a build for a new lay out? Think it would make for a very good walk through video. Like making a whole new layout on tables or whatever, like do a huge loop around the room with like details and that if you get me? Don't have too like whatever floats your boat 😂 just think it would be cool to see you building a very detailed model railway and as you go through it everyone else can go through it with you. Again, you do you bro. Keep the vids up!

[@SamsTrains]

Yeah it certainly would be fun one day - maybe I will do! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@jamesdunloptrains]

Awesome video today Sam very interesting video and beautiful locomotives I hope the railway doesn’t get shut down

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks James, really glad you like them! I hope so too :(

I enjoy the little running sessions. I would think children would enjoy the more. A little like Thomas but with real locos. Well done. Please, don't stop your reviews, though.

[@SamsTrains]

Thanks Duncan, I hope so!! :D I certainly won't stop reviews! Thanks for watching - Sam :)

Lol I love it how the turntable stops at every set of tracks! Typical of Hornby accessories, it's more of a toy than a realistic model! :p

[@SamsTrains]

haha I know - very annoying isn't it?! Thanks for watching - Sam :)

[@rayhankazianga6817]

You should see which of your heavy freight engines are the best pullers, like a 9f vs a gwr 2800 class

[@SamsTrains]

Good idea - that'd be a fun test! :D Thanks for watching - Sam :)
