MTH TRAINS: Steam Engine Fun

[shnimmuc]

*I have both of these locomotives. MTH has done a fantastic job on both. I wish I had the room to do something similar.

Thanks

Sehr schön gemacht, tolle Loks und eine schöne Anlage

[Tailterrier27]

Okay, that's a Santa Fe 2-10-4 and a Great Northern R-2 class 2-8-8-2? Nice! How about racing Lionel's Modern Era Blue Comet against MTH's Blue Comet?

[TommyZTrains]

@Tailterrier27 I don't have the Blue Comet ... It's a beautiful engine tho ...

[DogRun4]

Man I LOVE watchin' the rods work on steam engines! Keep 'em rollin' Tommy!

[shnimmuc]

[amtrakboy37]

I'm surprised I never saw this 100,000 star layout on the news! :)

[nardp96]

mines a 10 by 6. im thinking about doing a new track plan. any tips? nice layout

[TommyZTrains]

@nardp96 Sure !  Try different things, esp. the radius. I can't tell you how much that matters as a "sharp" turn's more often then not ... "TROUBLE".

The rest depends on if you want "heavy" scenery (alot of it) ... or more Train type of a setting , (Like me) Good luck OK ? :-)

[michaelmohrmann]

That was absolutely wonderful, and you've also provided me with plenty of inspiration for my own model railroad project. Thank you! :)

[TommyZTrains]

VERY grateful for that! *I'm right here if I can help Mike!

Best, Zman. :-)

[rayman4449]

Another great video by the KING of O gauge, thanks for posting! >: )

[SR722]

Nothing smokes like an MTH.

[TommyZTrains]

agree !!  :-)

[1225dude]

Are all your engines full scale like these?

[TommyZTrains]

yeah.... 99% are. *I could care less about "Scale".... I just like'em big and heavy. :-)

Cab Forwards? No way, too ugly....

[1225dude]

Chuckles ; you have so many engines that you can start describing them with percents. My count is still in the fractions.

[TommyZTrains]

You'll get there..... TRUST ME !!

[SouthernRR4501]

Nice video, nothin like steam locomotives!!

[TommyZTrains]

"O" I thank you !

[bravosixxx]

[TommyZTrains]

sleeping ahhhh buddy, It was`nt important.

[3254man]

pretty much. School + two instruments. I always find time in my day for trains though. They help me focus.

[ado75]

Very impressive and fun too!

[TommyZTrains]

that`s the magic word! ThankYou !  :-0

[jonrivnc]

This is an awesome videos. You should make more on the whole layout!

[3254man]

Oh and i saw the little annotation lol. Is that a 3751 class northern. It sure looks like one.

[TommyZTrains]

"only the best 4 ya buddy" !

[geargrinder12]

wow man these trains are awsome you have an amzing layout and it seems like you have a good personality as well

did you say the way you got all these trains were just by asking people

[TommyZTrains]

thank-you ... yeah... THE OLDER ONE`S .... everyone`s got a Lionel, Marx, or Amer. Flyer Train laying around....

Storie`s are by the hundred`s.... "just ask" YOU WILL SEE ! :-)

[LionelKid18]

Tom You Are The King!!! best layout on youtube

[TommyZTrains]

That`s nice to say... And I thank you dearly, "But I think you could be wrong" :-O ...

*Maybe were all alike, just "plain ole folk" ?  :-) Thank`s Son!

[lloyd2032]

As neat as the trains are, I am impressed by the "filiming". Either you have a very steady hand, or are rolling that camera on something?

Very nice!

[TommyZTrains]

No anything but "freehand" .... I`m usually pretty steady, but this new program makes it better.... (My Kid`s the computer go`roo) :-)

[3254man]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!

nice highball shot with the articulated.

Once I get better lighting over my larout, I'll show you some scale 80-90 mph with the Mikado. I have plenty other steamers given my layout is all steam but I am crazy for that engine. Great job. Nice northern too, and you have outsmoked me again to no suprise of mine. Steam is the best.

really liked the video.

Peter

[TommyZTrains]

Thank`s Pete, Which engine? ... think that GN`s and R-2 ?

*I`m not so hot with Steam as I`ve said in the past... Z-6`s are nice, but 4 Me it`s Diesel`s!

Sure glad U liked, that`s why I do it... :-)

[3254man]

Thanks. this video just made my day.
