Oh man. This was tricky. Sorry it went up late! We put this up weeks ago in order for Stadler to look it over and make sure we weren’t showing anything we shouldn’t. Well the place is full of things we can’t show! Last minute changes. Anyway there it is! Just a bit late…⏰⏰⏰🚀🚀🚀🚀🚂
Tricky as they have lots of things they don't want shown. So we agreed to approve everything we show. But the upside is they let us film in there. Which they never do! So score! But we cut out half of what we shot and blurred some.
@@azmike1 right!?? normally they don’t let anybody shoot video in there. But we were able to get permission by promising them to give them editorial control over what went in there was about half the footage we shot that we were not allowed to use because it showed something they didn’t want seen, and as you noticed, there were several areas we had to blur out as well. They’re doing some pretty high tech and amazing things in there and they don’t want it all just going out on the Internet.
Martin Ritter describing the new technology for the trains of tomorrow was really interesting, even though much of what he was saying went way over my head. And train show was wonderful. I LOVE the look of the real-life, future trains and their model railroad counterpart; they're beautiful. Great episode! 👍
It's just AMAZING. Hard to understand. But the hydrogen fuel cells... 1700 miles!!! On one tank of gas? With only water vapor as exhaust? AND can charge the batteries from overhead wire over 25% of the line??
In the opening scene, it showed the green shenanigan that I had the privilege to ride while in Japan. Clocked it at 240 mph with my speedometer app on my phone. Great video.
@@ToyManTelevision It was a cool experience and I’m glad we had the opportunity. We were in one tunnel for about 10 minutes at that speed, that was fun, especially when we passed another shenanigan going the same speed. On the down side, it was crowded and uncomfortable. The slow narrow gauge train was a lot more fun.
I was a Draftsman Designer of Railroad Passenger Cars way back when, where I could see! Now it's Impossible!! It really sucks now that I'm going Blind!! I loved drafting even in CAD!!!
@@gmaneis i’m just so amazed at the facility. Not only is a super high-tech, right on the cutting edge of technologies, it’s so absolutely perfectly clean and organized in there. They told me they spend one day out of the week just organizing and cleaning because it makes the other four days work so much better if they have a proper working environment.
@@ToyManTelevision We used to have "field days" once a week or so in the U.S. Navy, during which we would swab the decks, wax and buff them, clean the "heads", and generally spiff things up. It's not fun, but it sure does make life better during the other six days! Yeah, that plant looks like you could eat off the floors!😀
What an amazing place to see. I could see why they are careful about sharing the technology they use to make the trains. The paint on them is beautiful. Would love to ride that hydrogen one. So glad you and Karyn got to see inside and share with us just some of what you saw. GOD BLESS 🚂💕🚂💕🚂💕🚂💕
Couldn't agree more!😊. The one they had us blur is part of a rollout and they didn’t want us to show it until after they present it publicly. Other stuff they wouldn’t even let us film! So amazing!! Blessings on you!!!
Great video and a great interview and a look at the behind the scenes of the building of these trains. I like there model for the train show running on the track. To bad that you could not buy one for yourself for your outdoor railroad. That would have been cool for your collection.
Better late then not at all Dale and thanks for posting. Caltrain started regular service with the new trains this weekend and I went for a ride today. They are as great as I expected and everyone seems to really like them here. There are so many of the push-pull diesel electric commuter lines around the country that could electrify and use these trains that I feel Stadler will have plenty of business for some time.
What an awesome location for a train show, you can check out the little ones and the big ones! Great to see some new trains built in the US, and the company certainly seems to be friendly with modelers and enthusiasts as well. As a 3D modeling and printing hobbyist (secondary to railways) I was wowed by the 3D printer shown. It seems to have much greater build volume than your typical consumer printer, and the part that's printing would probably take 30-40 hours to get to that point at my printer's speed (depending on detail and infill). I'm currently about 25 hours into printing a small diesel shunter kit for my garden railway.
How fun to go there! I grew up in the Bay Area so CalTrain (Southern Pacific originally) was something I went on many times. I have been following the news about CalTrain starting up these new hydrogen-hybrid trains so it was great to see the factory! It’s too bad hydrogen fuel-cell cars (the Honda and Toyota models) failed so badly but even here in Orange County there was maybe 2-3 stations to fill up at. Honda ended their Clarity model a few years ago and Toyota can’t give away their Marai model because there is no place to get fuel.

👍 👍 Great snag of Martin Ritter , and the behind the scenes at Stadler , very cool & interesting ! ! ! 👏👏👏

Good job! Thanks for showing this event, and the facility. 👍🏻👍🏻

God bless.... I wish it wasn't so. Stay safe. stay well....
@ToyManTelevision
Very cool
So interesting and informative interview on the future of Staedler trains!
Great new technology
Blows my mind. 1700 miles? On one "tank of gas"? Making only electricity and water? WOW!
Great vidio, great trains.Thanks for the morning coffee...
Thank you for sharing your visit to this fantastic facility. It's so beautiful, and the interview with Martin was amazing, too.

@@cynthiaolson638 thanks!!
Very nice well done my good friends 😊
Great informative video that makes you as excited about real trains as models.
Hi!!! Hope your well!! Glad you enjoyed it😊😊🚂🚂🚀🚀
Fascinating video! Great interview with Mr. Ritter. The shop appears to be a tad more modern than the one in Ely. Thank you!
Awesome 👌

Great video and love the Stadler trains! Back in the day, the old Milwaukee Road used regenerative braking to put energy back into the system also.
Thanks guys I knew that they had the factory here know I know more now. 👍

HI!! Amazing place right?
Love seeing the CEO running some model trains, and with a RailPro to boot. 😁

Nice job showing The train show toy man keep it up please
Cal trains just celebrated the new electric trains this week in the Bay Area San Francisco
Love the video like always 👍 thank you
