This band organ is another one of my local band organs, it’s located at the J Chavis park public merry go round in downtown Raleigh NC. Me and Ethan went there today and got some cool up close shots and got to talk with the operator. Also sorry abt the bit at the end I had to screen record it again lol

Typeset from the Melrose edition by J. Lawrence Cook, great roll though running a tad bit fast, not sure why the tempo mark is so fast on this one.
@@PiotrBarcz yea I’m gonna re record it with the tempo slowed down a lil bit. I think I’ll just re record most of the old videos of the piano and make new ones of better quality.
@@lukesvintagetrains5495 Great idea! :D
I have one and many rolls. I think all the rolls they ever made. They didn't make many like the real player piano. I had to use a oil grease base some of the time the motor will have a funny screech sound and stops. Ebay has many of these watch what you buy no parts for these.
@@lannyyeakle8826 yea I have a couple of the pianos but the rolls are the rare one. This example I fully restored a couple mon ago and replaced all the parts and made it new again, that’s why it plays so darn well! I’ve been looking all over the place for them. (The rolls) An eBay listing had eleven rare ones but it got soled before I could snag them! That’s cool you have many, I’m totally jealous lol!
This is the Piedmont Service. It is operated by Amtrak, but uses engines and rolling stock owned and provided by the State of North Carolina. Amtrak does not owqn any engines or rolling stock like this.

@@lukesvintagetrains5495 Sorry. I meant to reply to the individual that says that Amtrak is an embarrassment.

I'm so pleases my piano made it to your home. I don't know that anyone else would have loved it as much as you. Always warms my heart to hear it played. Thanks for sharing and Happy New Year to you and your mom.
@@brendaluthringer295 thank you! I’m so very glad you gave it to us. Happy new year!
This piano belonged to you? I'm interested in its history. Would like to know anything you want to share about it.
@@SevenPlus65 I just re- read this comment. Yes she did own it before us. She got it from her neighbor (I think that’s what she said) about 13 years back. She said she had it tuned at least once and then we got it tuned once it was moved to our house. Sorry about not responding right lol I thought you were asking me if I owned it xD

@@khmam thanks! Is it a Christmas song? (Wouldn’t be surprised)
@lukesvintagetrains5495 I am uncertain, oh, and historically, this must be an example of a dedicated (original) 146A! The difference between the 146A and B is B indicates bells.
@ cool! Thanks for the info Kevin. :D
@@khmam no it's not an xmas tune
@@andrewlardieri4110oh ok.
What happened to the 146A video?
@@khmam it uploaded as a short for some reason, I’m re uploading it now.
Sounds halting, mechanical & lacking expression.
@@timmullen8951 well this is a standard player action, not a reproducing player. Since I’m running the piano off of the electric vacuum in this video and not the pedals which I can add expression with.
@lukesvintagetrains5495 Hi, Luke. Thanks for your explanation. Have fun. Be Well.
This is the best I have ever seen someone play this song
@NoahBlausey I agree! I’ll be sure to tell him.
Great piano roll! I should try and get a cut of this one :D
You should! It’s a great roll, got this one in that box I told you abt for Christmas
@@lukesvintagetrains5495 Very nice! I don't pick up those big lots of rolls like a lot of other people do because then what do I do with the non desirable titles? XD
@@PiotrBarcz true, I just put them in my stack of rolls in my room and pretend I have more than I really have xD
@@lukesvintagetrains5495 Nice bragging rights hack haahaha! XD
Is this the same piano in the other videos or do you have two of them? Also holy moly the sound is WAY better in this video for some reason, did you put the mic in the back of the piano like I suggested in that comment thread we had going a few days ago? I can't think of any other way to get that good sound! (EDIT: I saw you had the phone in the back, brilliant! :D The only way you could possibly get better sound is with an actual sound recorder as phones compress the dynamics, other than that, you're getting studio quality!)
I almost got another one a couple months ago, but nope! This is the same one. Thanks for that advice, you’re right it sounds soooooo much better. And I’ll think abt that audio recorder. Thanks for commenting Piotr!
@@lukesvintagetrains5495 I'll be looking forward to more recordings! :D
Luke... I've been thinking about your piano ever since your live stream this morning. Do you know what I think would play really well on your piano since its a 65 note but can handle a standard roll?
ruclips.net/video/uf1K8EGlVXo/видео.htmlsi=XrUdEOOj8O1pAS7n
@@SevenPlus65 That's a great one!
I had typed out a big reply and it looks like it was removed. Piotr, don't you think Luke could play both Ampico and Duo-Art rolls on that 65 note player? The tracker bar wouldn't have all those expression holes. I didn't know if Luke was aware of what an Ampico roll looks like. I think his piano would play them. Your thoughts?
That would depend on if the tracker bar has 80 holes or 88. I think it has 88, the holes outside of the range are tubed down an octave so that you're not just missing notes.
It can, it has the same tracker bar as the standard action player stack. And yes, I love ampico and duo art rolls, it’s been one of those types of rolls I’ve always wanted! Also it’s a 64 note player. FYI
That player piano is cool as hell, Merry Christmas.
@PCrailfan3790 thanks! Merry Christmas xD
Great video. Keep up the good work, and the trains rolling. Merry Christmas!
@@Scotty_5555 thanks!!
Thanks for joining this year's display contest, the real piano playing in the background was a real treat! This has to be one of the most unique entries I've seen 🙂
@@SMTMainline thanks Harrison! I’ve never seen a player piano in an entry before so I thought it would be cool. :D
Smt have you seen my vid yet
@@CaseStone-520 he doesn’t really respond to these comments. I saw your video tho!
@ thanks
Hey Luke.... I watch all your piano videos. This isn't a "hate" message at all. Just from one player piano owner to another. When you're pumping, are your pedals hard to push? It looks like there's a lot of resistance there as I can see your legs and body moving quite a bit just to play the roll. Are you able to put the movement into your ankles as opposed to your hips? (Hope that made sense). You'll wear yourself out playing like that! Keep posting though. Looks like your collection is growing and you're having fun. I recently posted this identical roll on my channel.... it's one of the best Christmas rolls you'll ever own!
My goodness yes, this piano has sooo much resistance on the pedals, and it’s almost impossible to pedal the other way without getting tired almost immediately 😅. And I checked, nothing is blocking the pedals, it’s just really tough to pump! (And you’re totally right about this roll, so good. :D)

That's awesome
@@whatushahufh thanks :D
I just wanna make sure I did this right… #smtxmastrain2024
Sounds great!
@@PiotrBarcz thx! But here is the weird thing… it’s using the same mic I used on the other piano! (The one that sounds flat) so I guess it’s just hit or miss lol
@lukesvintagetrains5495 Yup depends on the placement. If you can get a longer cable for the external mic (if it has a cable) then get one that's like 6 or even 10 feet long and put the mic behind the piano, that'll solve all your problems XD
Very nice! This is a great roll!
@@PiotrBarcz thanks!!! It is definitely one of my favorite Christmas rolls. Btw, what do you think about how the piano sounds after I voiced it? (I hope it sounds a little less bright)
@lukesvintagetrains5495 Sounds a bit better indeed, sound is still kinda flat from the camera itself though, what are you using for recording? If it's an iPhone then that explains the audio quality.
@ it’s an iPad, but I have an external microphone. (It’s a piece of sh!t though) that’s why it sounds so bad.
@lukesvintagetrains5495 Try using the built in one and get it closer to the piano, or even better open up the piano (take the front panel off, leave the lid on) that should help quite a bit.
@Piotrbarcz alright, I’ll try that. And I can’t take the front panel off, because the lid and the front are one piece lol but thanks for the advice anyway :D
I thought it was fig leaf rag for a minute.
Nice roll! Looks as if that lower C is having trouble returning to the top.
He mentions that in his description.

@@GOL1912 yea the rolls is definitely a fav. And the cranberry sauce is good, except my family seems to like the jello-like one and the texture is what gets it for me lol

@lukesvintagetrains5495 very nice. Love band organs! It seems like they don't use it as much nowadays.
And also the Endelin collection is near you only in South Carolina.
@ yea, at this carousel the only way they will run it is if you ask a staff member. This is due to the small size of the carousel house and it is very loud.

Request: Wurlitzer 153 Band Organ Plays Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines
@@ul7185 alright, I’ll see if I can get this one out. There are no Wurlitzer 153 band organs in my area, and there is no guarantee they would,d have that roll. But I’ll see!
That tune is on Mikeys site where has a recording of Cedar Point 153 playing it from MIDI
I've been wanting a full recording of this tune ever since I saw a video of this same 125 in another person's video. That video was simply titled "Ghostbusters on the Wurlitzer" and it was uploaded by dgmobley79. It resonated throughout the whole carousel building and sounded magnificent! But now with those plastic screens in the way it's noticeably less loud than it was without those plastic screens in front of it. This Halloween Roll was arranged by Rich Olsen. He released it for the Wurlitzer 150 roll frame(video of that is on Jeff Bryner's RUclips channel, he has a Wurlitzer 153), sadly not the 165 roll frame. He sadly died in 2013 at the age of 60, from cancer as far as I've heard. R.I.P. 1953 - 2013.
@@CBF1 well I’m glad you got it lol! I asked about the screen, they said it was just soooo loud. And they were right xD! I’ll be posting more band organ content soon… as soon as I go back to that carousel. Thanks for commenting!
