[grizzleybearz282004]

IL HAVE TO SAVE THIS FOR MY KIDS TO SEE VERY WELL DONE THANKS FOR POSTING

[JesusBlack14]

Noo the best narrater is ringo starr!!!

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@JesusBlack14 Ringo Starr was the narrator when The Thomas videos first came to the United States on 'Shining Time Station' and I agree, he is still the best. Glad you enjoyed the Pumpkin Junction video. Be sure and check out Thomas at our friends at "PineTreeJunction' on Youtube. Good luck with your model railroading.

[mcrrocks80]

@PumpkinJunctionRR was he british?

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@mcrrocks80 If you are asking about JesusBlack's comment on Ringo Starr, yes, he is British. He was the drummer for the Beatles rock group.

[JesusBlack14]

great layout man!! keep up the good work

[leokimvideo]

wow, this scale looks great, looks like bachmann hit the mark with the larger scaled models

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@leokimvideo I think Bachmann did a great job with their Thomas engines. Check out the PineTreeJunction site to see them on a fantastic garden layout.

[Lundmunchkins2000TV]

you sound just like goerge carlin-- the best thomas narater.you are awesome

[brother1997]

is it ho scale

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@brother1997 Thomas is the the large scale G gauge train that Bachmann came out with a couple years ago.

[Dustehue928]

I thought you were going to say WEEEEEE when he went down the hill^^

[mcrrocks80]

Awsome video! i like your train set

[Lepper36]

I can tell you have a lot of fun doing these videos.

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@Lepper36 Thank you for your nice comment. When you build a model railroad, the question when you are finished is 'What do I do now?' Youtube provides a marvelous opportunity to try and do new things with the railroad after the space for expansion runs out. Thanks again for commenting.

[junkrocker]

I hope he has kids/granddkids...

[ScottishRails]

I love it! It might work better if you used different shots cut together, and add narration when editing... Just a suggestion! Anyway, it's awesome :D

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@ScottishRails Thanks for visiting the Pumpkin Junction. Glad you enjoyed the video. This was my second video and was still early in the learning curve. Hopefully I will be getting an editing program that will allow me to add narration after filming. Right now I am limited to Windows Movie Maker.

[AnimeLover4931]

Not to offend you or anything, but I didn't like how you narrated your videos. Other than that I like your train set its very detailed =D

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@AnimeLover4931 Thanks for visiting the Pumpkin Junction. If you don't care for narration, please checkout 'Thomas & Percy, A Grand Day on the Pumpkin Junction Railway' or 'Old West Playmobil Train' as they just have music.

[tencents6]

very detailed, and very big, I'm impressed.

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@tencents6 Thank you for the nice comment. I plan to do some new videos in the next few weeks. Hope you'll take an opportunity to view them.

[wwwfrankwww]

wow, very nice ...

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@wwwfrankwww Thanks for the nice comment. Glad you enjoyed visiting the Pumpkin Junction Railway.

[BramGroatFilms]

What models did you use for Sir Topham Hatt and the Conductor?

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@BramGroatFilms These were models from when my son was young. They are marked Ertl on the bottom with a 1990 copyright, so we got them shortly after the Shining Time Station program was first aired on PBS. Thanks for watching the video, hope you enjoyed it.

[BramGroatFilms]

@PumpkinJunctionRR I thought those looked like Ertl models! (I have a large collection of them myself.)

[Cythrawl102]

Heres another thing.. Sir Topham Hatt in the UK (The country of origin) is referred to as The Fat Controller. Somehow that didnt got down to well in the USA. I have a hard time not calling him the Fat Controller as that how he was known when I grew up. Now I live in the USA and my son is into Thomas.. Have to bite my tongue every time.. Damn silly political correctness..

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@Cythrawl102 Thanks for the comment. Hope you and your son enjoyed the video. You might enjoy seeing Thomas on the Pinetree Junction youtube site.

[tidmouthmilk12]

just to clarify something

"LADY" hatt

and "SIR" topham hatt

never have they been called mr and mrs topham hatt

(and yes it does have two letter T's ... just saying)

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@tidmouthmilk12 Yes, and I'm a little surprised that it has taken 4 months for someone to comment on it. My only excuse is that I was filming and doing narration ad lib and correct forms of British title address don't just naturally roll off the tongue in American. Hope it didn't spoil the video for you.

[silverexpress1997]

@PumpkinJunctionRR How Much Volts can thomas ride on.

Home in Denmark we have 220V

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

@silverexpress1997 I use an LGB transformer controller that is made for a USA 110 V electrical outlet. It puts 12-18VDC to the track. Hope you have enjoyed the Pumpkin Junction RR videos.

[CHITOWNCJ1]

how old r u and who would play with thomas

[super58173]

@CHITOWNCJ1 You would.

[XBrucePatX]

Iv noticed its always bachmann that gets newer models.....why doesnt hornby make some newer and large scale models

[ThomasBiddleSpeaks]

You have a fantastic Model Railway, and you make a good story teller too ;)

Watching that makes me want to model in G scale!

[UrsulaRulez]

I love how this model has the CGI face. That really is a very impressive layout, wish I had one like that! Hehe

[Sodoradventures]

Great Layout and Story!

[mrduckandBubbles]

Nice Layout

[artist794]

did you change the cuoples on thomas, annie and clarabel????

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

Yes, I have a tight S-curve on the layout and the fixed body couplers caused the cars to derail. I replaced them with homemade drawbars.

[TTTEproductions]

lol mr steam shovel

[trainsandfigers]

nice layout its amazing if u get percy will you do a full episode using both of them?

[Zorran202]

did you get Large Scale Percy too?

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

Thomas was for Christmas, hopefully Percy will be later this year.

[TheInsanebrain247]

I wish Bachmann could give the HO scale Thomas as much detail.

[trainguy111]

Ever thought of getting the Accucraft Casey Junior?

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

Missed getting one when they came out several years ago and they seem to be hard to find now. I think one would look good on the layout.

[trainguy111]

I know how you'd feel. If Bachmann could make one, theirs would be just as good. Maybe even better.

[trainguy111]

Nice layout! What size is it?

[PumpkinJunctionRR]

It is 10 feet wide an 26 feet long. 12 turnouts, 2 sidings and 3 reverse loops

[Sketchy2009Studios]

Could you film some footage for me?Please?

[SaltyFan12]

ur layout is amazing!

story could have been better but its still great story and LS Thomas looks great on the layout

[toby070]

Well to be more precise, the other videos are about showing the new large scale thomas, while this is the first to use a story, which in this case involves thomas picking up a passenger.

[RobertMProductions]

Very nice! :D

[TheBlueE2]

Great layout!

nice idea having a little story to go along with showing the LS Thomas 5/5

[Frserthegreenengine]

@TheBlueE2 I agree

[Damocles178]

@toby070 It's not but it's certainly one of the best.
