My first "train" was a push along Tootsie Toy freight train. My first electric toy train was an American Flyer tin type O Guage passenger train. At that time I didn't appreciate the historic nature of it. Then my last toy train was a "top of the line" Lionel freight train. Instead of having Lionel on the sides of the tender it had Pennsylvania on it. While the American Flyer only had a headlight, Lionel also had a light in the caboose. It also featured a box car where miniature "5 gallon milk cans" were pushed out on to a platform and a flat car that carried logs. And the logs could be dumped into a tray by remote control.

The Central Pacific faced unimaginable challenges. It was more than just the locomotives that were shipped around Cape Horn to California.

Steve stribel with the o scale railroad we cover so often lives in a house made from an old silo cast from cement.

Just outside the Museum, is the Sacramento Southern Railroad where you get to ride behind the Granite Rock Company number #10. A beautifully restored 1942 0-6-0 Porter tank engine steam locomotive that hauled rock and gravel in quarries around Hollister California. She was restored in 1997 and rebuilt again in 2015, and runs every weekend from March-September as well as the Christmas season. It's a nice scenic ride along the Sacramento River, and riding the train is a great start to a visit at the Museum.

They gave us a great tour of the roundhouse. They were in the process of restoring one of their steam engines when we were there. It had been fired up earlier that day and still had a bit of pressure, so they let my blow the whistle. It was a soft wailing sound instead of the usual strong note. Unfortunately the valve stuck open and we got to hear the whistle blow for the rest of our tour of the roundhouse and turntable. I'll be at the Hostler's train show in Ogden. We usually go on Friday night, or Sunday. I have a small N scale layout, and always enjoy seeing the layouts.

*The 4-2-4 Chase at the California State RxR Museum* was originally built for an estate railway, only to have the original purchaser unable to pay; the Big Four snapped it up for commuter duty in Sacramento, but it was best suited for track inspection due to the limited pulling effort available from two drivers. Eventually I'd like to see the 2-4-0 Baldwin 6/22C SerNo 3689 polished up, given two cosmetically-restored Westinghouse air pumps, and repainted in a maroon-and-gold scheme consistent with her last duties on the V&T (matching "21" on the sandbox sides and the flanks of the present cab, "Virginia & Truckee." on the tender sides) - a full running restoration would probably require the services of O'Connor Engineering and the Dixie Boiler Works for a new alloy-steel boiler and matching CNC-ported cylinders and valves, as the stock lap-jointed iron won't stand more than 50 PSI.

We were there. Have a show somewhere on that. Here on the channel. Huge. We were there all day and saw less than half. Really want to get back.

there is one other difference between Dans Eureka and this loco ... the Eureka is 4 foot 8 inch standard gauge
@ToyManTelevision4 жыл бұрын
The Sonoma and the Eureka are almost identical. Both 3 foot gauge. Minor differences. Even the same paint and pin stripes

Love the name. Karyn has lived in Mt Pleasant. (Utah) Called Hub City because it's right in the dead center of Utah.

The nice guy who makes these videos ought to be aware that "screwing around" has a somewhat different meaning in the U.K. than the U.S.A! A pity that our enjoyment of them gets interrupted by occasional fits of the giggles.

+Paul Hitchcock On Top Gear they use the term "cocking about". Same thing I guess. Odd how some expressions become "normal" with use. Here in the US everyone says "sucks" without thinking about what it is short for or what it means.
