Hillcrest and Wahtoke 15" gauge live steam railroad grande scales

[schmokko]

Have a look at Dampfpaule or schmokko, very interesting

[darktrooper4]

those are some gorgeous trains my friend haha if i lived near you i would do anything to get a chance to run them

[jeanclaudejunior]

i know that music's from! is from back to the future 3 by john silvestri

[josh84000]

exellent film dude :D

[Dinosorable]

15 gauge is my favorite size for a miniature railroad!

[diamondrio21]

oh how cool are these trains, i want one this is excellent !.

[bcschmerker]

Nice job balancing what I call a "pinch" doubleheader: a tall-drivered 4-4-0 with a short-drivered 2-6-0. Railroads might cross freight and passenger types under extraordinary circumstances where there might be no second locomotive of the appropriate class to spare for a hard grade pull.

[Surgethearcticfox]

Reminds me of the old west.

[Bruno47602]

Wonderland!

[sgtwylde1996]

was that a model of the eureka?

[TheMandolineer]

@sgtwylde1996 yeah, it looks like it, or there's another baldwin centennial 4-4-0 with a radley-hunter stack and Eureka & Palisade paint that I don't know about :]

[Trainhugger1997]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Trainhugger1997]

[engineer6325]

15'' gauge trains are so cool......

[schmokko]

Have a look under - Dampfpaule- a big, very nice loco

[Trainhugger1997]

how did you get the music on the video?

[CORKYANDERSON]

why do these people think that this music is preferable to the sounds of a steam loco? They err mightily!

[TheMrBlinx]

What gauge is this?

[CaptainHarlock999]

@TheMrBlinx As the title of the video states, it is 15" gauge.

[Dinosorable]

@TheMrBlinx Read the title.

[shasho1952]

How pretty steam locomotive and nice crips!

Thank you very much for your share!

[48alfaone]

Wow, what a great road!! Got any to scale Diesels? 

[48alfaone]

@paullubliner I was not putting down Steam? "I am a huge Fan of Steam"! But, there is beauty in all railroading, like a true to scale Diesel as well as a Steam Engine, (not a gas or electric reproduction just to roll down the rail, but a true to scale diesel engine). In this case 15" gauge.

[youtship]

Is the train open to the public, or just for your own amusement?

[CaptainHarlock999]

@youtship Public during specific events. Search for "hillcrest and wahtoke railroad" on google.  The next railfest is coming in March, and its open during the christmas tree and pumpkin seasons.

[rexman92]

[M1911A1]

Love the glow from the firebox on that 4-4-0! Great vid.

[mapexmac]

I had to add that one to my favorite list - very professionally edited and the music really adds a punch.

[eschnitger]

How the west was fun...

[microbusss]

IF I was to build a loco it would be 15" gauge & the loco from BTTF =)

[salemcripple]

Extra points for the back to the future music! lol

[geargrinder12]

[BreathDoctor]

[vettebecker]

Love the eureka 4-4-0. Wish I had the money and the room.

[TheTenwheeler]

Replica of the North Pacific Coast Sonoma that is in a museum?

[turningintime]

Yes, both the original and the replica belong to the California State Railroad Museum. The original full sized engine is on display.

[jmarch890]

What music was used?

[CaptainHarlock999]

Back to the Future III - John Sylvestri.

[MOVEZIG]

@CaptainHarlock999

Lol, a very appropriate song indeed! Say Harlock its your buddy Alex a.k.a "Steamboy89"

[switchstand]

Wow. Good camera, good editing. That's what it takes to make a great video! Right use of music helps too. Loved it.

[Big159Mac]

this is so darn coooooool why does it have to end?  :)

[Jsusfrk20]

Way to go, excellent video!!!

Make another one with the same music!

[DanielVolker]

Hey. The Sonoma is still running!!!!!

[HunterBHolmes]

NICE! Love the Loco's and the Back To The Future III theme just tops it off! :) great job!

[GreatWestern175]

This is some fantastic work! Very well thought of and the music is very ideal, I dunno were the music comes from but you sure choose the correct music for this setting. A very well done man!

Best regard Ryan from the UK

[losangelesboys]

[legendary104]

[Engineer5344]

dude you are a fucking genious, the music sequence was suspicious and yet familiar.

[traindude109]

Loved it! I used to operate the Sonoma for years on her home railroad in Orland, CA before builder passed away and it was donated to the museum.

[Robuster82]

Great Video!

Looking forward to some more video!

Interesting to see the panting from the firebox @ 45 secs.
