What a lucky son and what a wonderful Dad! Almost 30 years ago I made a pull-along steam loco in which my daughters could ride. My intention was to make some trucks to bring back coal to our riverside cottage in the Candover Valley, in Hampshire, England (the coalman wouldn't come up our lane to deliver) but I never completed the job. My (poor) effort pales into insignificance when I see yours! You've got something to remember for ever there! Congratulations and have a happy 2012. Rob.

My 3 year old has made me watch this video over and over. He LOVES trains and we have to watch train videos everyday. Is there anyway you could tell me know you did that? I think my husband and son would enjoy doing something like that together. My email is cowgirlinms22@yahoo.com. Thanks for posting this video and I just want to say that you are very talented. Glad to see that you and your son do things like that together making memories that will last forever.

THIS WAS MY FAVORITE OLD LOCOMOTIVE

@shfeher how did you make that

That's an amazing locomotive you made there!
I've never responded to a You Tube video....but this one got my attention! Amazing...simply amazing. What an incredible talent you have to produce something of this magnitude from scratch. It's clear the love for your son fueled your motivation and determination. It's refreshing to see a father give so much of himself in honor of his son and their relationship. Clearly it paid off; I see the post where you and your son are now building and airplane together and you are teaching him to fly.

@handclan6 Thank you for your very kind comments. Some people say I am spoiling my son. I would agree if I just built stuff for him. But, in fact, he is next to me, helping me at whatever level he is capable. And that means we spend lots of time together. He is almost 13 and his current passions are flying our family plane and Boy Scouts. He is one rank away from Eagle and we spend a lot of time backpacking and hiking. Thanks again and God bless.

That is great. Even the wife has to be happy with it, and the envy of the neighborhood. Makes me wonder what kind of machine you will build for the son when he is a teenager, a jet plane, battleship? Anything else will be a let down after this, and you make all of the other fathers look incompetent.

@tld5500 Thanks for the kind comments. My son is now 12 and we are building an airplane. I am also teaching him to fly. He has 20 hours now.... well on his way to becoming a pilot.
