Thanks for visiting Northlandz and sharing such an incredible content with your audience. We are so grateful for the pleasure of serving you and hope we met your expectations. I hope you come again.
Train museum was something else, the work that went into building it! WOW!
Model trains are awesome! 🚂 Have a wonderful day, Jacob ❤️
You always find the coolest places to visit Jacob.
Finally someone shows model railroad
What a place. One man's mission.
Its always a good time at Northlandz. Glad to see you finally made it Jacob. We've been there several times. Everytime you go you notice something you missed the time before. Once you get into model railroading it becomes a fun addiction. We have 50 to 60 years of models ourselves.
My Dad would love this, Jacob. He was a railroad man and loved railroading
Awesome ! I'm glad you finally made it here. I remember when this place was first open in 1997 and saw it on a morning talk show "Breakfast Time" on FX that featured a worm puppet as one of the hosts along with Tom Bergeron. This place is almost as cool as the Roadside America layout was. Long R.I.P. Roadside America. I'm so glad you and Adam got to document before it went away.
Only the Carpet Bagger could, Engineer...such a video.
TY, sir Jacob!
finally a video again about attractions that don't have crazy roller coasters but rather give you inspiration to create something!
It’s awesome to see the hard work 😓 put into these model trains 😊
I was going to lose my mind if the train wreck was the Hammond circus! That old ouija energy reaching you in NJ😂
Damn, I didn’t even think of that. lol wild!
Oh wow, this is about 20 minutes away from me! The new owners have put a lot of work into this and it shows! After the creator passed, a lot of it fell into disrepair (I see you, Little Girl Gulch) and a lot of disrespectful guests threw trash into the displays. I haven't been back in a few years but I think it's definitely worth revisiting! Thanks for coming through the area, I hope you had a great time!
You said miniature and trains in the same sentence and I’m Immediately hooked.
Dude, this is _so_ cool!!! Thank you for always uploading some of the best content on RUclips.
To me, your channel is what RUclips _should_ be. Cool people sharing cool stuff. You really take me back to the early days of RUclips. Thanks again, buddy 🥰
Northlandz is my childhood!!!
That was amazing the work that has gone into that is ming boggling. Thank you Jacob. Bev UK 🇬🇧 x
Beautiful display of model trains Jacob! That looks like a really cute museum. Hope you have a great day today!
Love seeing trains 🚂 it reminds me of my Dad he was an engineer for Santa Fe until he retired. He then went on to be a engineer for Union Pacific.. i use to go to work all the time with him and ride the trains growing up miss those times with him. I also use to have a lot of the porcelain dolls but unfortunately they got stolen. I use to also love the Smurfs i had a collection of them as well I even had a Smurf record.
thanks for bringing back a piece of my childhood
I am a sucker for Miniature trains
For a nearly four hour movie gone with the wind is well pace movie
I absolutely love seeing model train villages. As a youth I always wanted to start one myself but I quickly realized how expensive the hobby gets. Same goes for the ceramic Christmas villages. I love them but it's a hobby that can quickly cost a lot of money. Thanks for taking us along with you, Jacob!
What a amazing display !
Seen it before, but it is amazing !
Love trains ! Had one as a kid & adults !
Fantastic find Wow
It has been around since 1997 !
Greetings from Poteet Texas and thank you for sharing Northlandz I had a ho scale train set back in the 80s and 90s
Good Morning Jacob 🙋🏽
Awesome video as always Jacob
the doll with the marilyn dolls was Mae West
Fascinating place! What tremendous displays! Another great adventure thanks!
You should go to Space Farms Zoo and Museum
The detail that went into this is crazy. I also love that huge dollhouse. 5 year old me would have been obsessed.
That place is amazing. I have always been fascinated by miniatures ever since I was a kid, and I always wanted to build my own miniature town. No idea why, I'm just weird that way. When I was seven years old, I made a map of it that took up the entire dining room table. I remember being very put out when I had to move it for Thanksgiving and Christmas, but it did give me an excuse to move things around. Also, I have no idea who the other blonde doll was, but I'm positive the one in black was Mae West.
Thanks for taking us along. I always wanted to visit this display. I have heard it is great to see. You can see the man who built it took care to make the many scenes. One thing I was surprised to see was how short the trains they were running. With all that trackage I would think thy would want to feature big long freight trains. It also was nice they had all those doll scenes that would help keep interest from families that come and only some that like trains that way it helps entertain other family members while the others can enjoy the trains.
Gomez Aadams would have a " Blast " here ! lol :~)
Those aliens doing their little dance was so goated. My life is complete
OMG. Your in NJ and we missed you. My heart hurts. Hopefully some day we can see you. We are such a fan of yours.
That was a really creative museum, especially with how they used the mirrors. Thanks for taking us. 😊
I loved this video. All of them are good but this one was just grand because of the trains.
Yeeeeessssss!!!!!!! Thanks for posting this. I'm currently living in a mission piecing my life back together after some tough times. I love model trains and miss them greatly. It's creators like you that keep me going. I hope to visit there one day.
Dang! So close! Would be great to cross paths and meet the one and only Jacob the Carpetbagger.
Morning Jacob 🤓📸 thanks for sharing this largest collection of miniatures of trains 🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃 looks great 👍. Have fun there.
Fun museum. We get it Jacob!
Amazing setups, excellent video, Jacob. Till the next one, take care, my friend, and as always safe travels.
Amazing! Loved the creativity, imagination, and sense of humor used in the displays. The dolls were interesting too.
The doll on the far left is Mae West.
That's right near me, though I've never been in. I guess I need to plan a visit!
I live nearby and was wondering if I should visit, thanks, after watching this I think i will check it out
The stress on the motors of these toy trains running all day long means they need replacing evey few months and sometimes weeks. The amount if maintainace and cost needed on these trains and displays to keep then running can be very easily underestimated.
Hi Jacob. No wonder It's a world record holder, what a labour of love this must have taken many years to finish.. I bet the staff and volunteers adore It..!!! XXXX
Good afternoon Jacob
Thanks Jacob never heard from anyone on RUclips that talked love videos
When I go to train shows I take around $50.00 to prevent extra buying copies of equipment.
I was reading that Miniatur Wunderland is the largest with 9.9 miles of track and Northland is second in size. Still a decent enough layout and looks really fun to visit.
Awesome video I love trains
Imagine how long it took to built and connecting the tracks.
Good Morning " YA ALL " Jacob the Carpetbagger..!!
Glad to see you make it just down the road from my house in Branchburg while I was at work! I went there once before they have the current owners and it’s an amazing display.
LOVE MODEL RAILROAD LAYOUTS. THANKS JACOB. HOPEFULLY NEXT FAIR YOU GET MORE INTO THE BEEF COW BARN. LOVE THE HEREFORDS. STILL LOVE GOING TO ALL THE FAIRS. YOU DO THE BEST SHOWING OF ALL.
Oh boy! What a spectacular place. This was entertaining and how in the world that fellow built all of the clever scenes and tracks is mind boggling.
Imagine a giant Jacob looking down at your town filming 😂
Today I received my Carpetbagger sticker and came with a postcard. ✌🏼
Not going to lie that mirror did get me I thought oh boy they got another coaster way back there lol fun stuff Jacob thanks for sharing you made my night lol
@13:06 These are Himalayan salt lamps. I have 3! ❤
They should expand the Star Wars hallway and brand this as the Northlandz Train and Toy Museum!
Well hello carpetbagger it's always amazing to see another amazing video
The town I was born in, I went there once with 2 of my nieces
The Mothman of West Virginia.
Nice shirt
Another really cool miniature train museum is in Tucson, AZ. Super fun and interactive too.
Welcome to my state!
Jacob this was magical..love this one of my favorites .thankyou
If I remember correctly, this tour involves over a mile of walking... When I went like 20 years ago they were just building the outside train ride.
Who knew aliens like M&M’s😂
Just read that it was sold when the owner retired and was almost destroyed because the new owner just needed a warehouse. But he was so impressed by the work and details he decided to renovate and reopen it in 2019.
What a strange place and so astonishing. Nice find.
Actually, the largest model RR is in Hamburg, Germany
I’ve been here too! As a child tho. When I use to go there, Bruce would play the pipe organ at certain times of the day.
I don’t know how there can be two world records for the largest miniature railroad museum but in Germany / Hamburg is the Miniatur Wunderland that has the same title but maybe newer I guess?
There could be several records at the same time. It depends on how you define "biggest". I think the one in Germany is the biggest in terms of tracks. All in all, they have the longest railway line. I guess Northlandz seems to have got the record because they have the biggest facility in terms of area.
Yay! Was hoping for this eventually!
Turntable by the roundhouse
You should check out Luna Parc
I second that. Jacob needs to get in touch with Ricky Boscarino so he can tour the Luna Parc folkart house and grounds. I got to meet Ricky like twelve years ago when he stopped at my wacky world.
It’s odd how we all live that huge miniature railway but put up with massive freeways and driving everywhere.
This is such a cute place, and this is a bit of a ways away from me. I didn't know it existed until now. 😮
Jmmy 😅😅😅good you
Welcome back to New Jersey! And not far from my old place of work on rt202❤
I remember as a kid going to northland's it was so fun
I think they meant the hogwarts train rather than the mess of tracks as nowhere in Scotland looks like that, trust me I live here. Lol
Omg u in nj u should come to the opening of my spirit store in south NJ rio grande on Thursday 😂 after 4pm so I can meet u 😂😂😂😂
I would love too go there I love model trains
You were basically down the highway from me, that's crazy! There are plenty of weird and cool places across NJ and I'm glad you're covering more of them! By the way, there are some fun Halloween Haunts in New Jersey! Quite a few of them aren't far from Flemington either.
One doll is Mae West who has movies with W.C Fields she wore this outfit in Klondike Annie and the boa in Every days a Holiday ..the quote I remember from her is "come over to see me sometime" I think anyway.
The other I think is Jane Mansfield but this I'm not sure on
Thank you this was great❤ say hi to Jen for me
I"ve seen a NOT of layouts in the US....but nothing to the level of this one. It's a bit weak on animation...but MORE THAN MAKES up for it in VASTNESS and absolute incredible landscape MODELING. Perhaps the finest, I"ve EVER seen. Amazing! If you do like lots of animation, check out the town of Strasburg, PA as there are MULTIPLE railroad exhibits to see including an incredible model layout in the town (I forget the name of the model layout).
Jacob... great video. I need to go here.😊
Now it's free! 😂
Enjoy my home state
There’s a miniature attraction in Germany that actually has planes take off and land. I think they use a stick from the bottom the whole time to guide them from the terminal to backstage
The sticks are only used for take off and landing. For driving around at the airport the planes follow wires in the underground.
Speaking of the Santa Fe. Do you know why there are no baby trains? The Santa Fe always pulls out in time.

Leave it to Jacob (and the community) to introduce me to more cool places in my own area that I had no idea existed!
I think I used to be neighbors with that dog band.
I was there in June, the outside train wasn't running then either :(
