Thanks again for stopping by and watching The Mill Creek Central big engine meet.
This one was great too! You are a blessed man to have a wife like Tammy. When I tell people I watch train videos they look at me like I'm crazy, 😆🤪😝 Not sure why they think that. Hahaha
🤣🤣🤣 they just don't understand the fun they can have with trains.. thank you Val, Tammy is a wonderful wife, I am blessed thank you for saying that... thanks for checking this one out..

@@TriGogglin Avec plaisir. Je continue à suivre toutes les videos sur ce Fabuleux club.
A bientôt !
With pleasure. I continue to follow all the videos on this Fabulous club.
See you soon !
Where were they going with our moonshine In the beginning!! That what I call an adult playground! That place is awesome thanks for sharing. Some sweet motive power!
Lol yeah, I laughed at the barrel was wondering where the party train was going. This was a very nice place, may do some volunteering and get some education and hands on. The live steam coal burners smelled so good.
@@TriGogglin I definitely want to make a trip there but I want cameron to be old enough to enjoy it as well. Is it far from you? That be cool to volunteer!
@@LRSXnot to far right at about an hour from me. Yeah cam would love that.
Very nice my grandson (and l ) would so enjoy this nice video
Thank you Mike, so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
There he is! Looks like you had a good time!
It most certainly was Anthony, was a great day, thanks for watching.
It's all awesome, liked seeing the Shay, excellent job filming everything 👍😎
Thank you, that was a great day and a new experience for me, I also learned a lot. Thanks for watching.
This was so cool Pappy. Love that first B&O loco
I have that blue and orange b&o boxcar in ho scale too
Thanks Dave, that first B&O was the property owners, it was an amazing piece of art work, also the body is aluminum so as not to rust while playing outside.
Thanks for the video, Pappy! I had never heard of this place. ...Claude
Thanks for watching Claude, I had seen a few videos from this place but didn't realize where it was, I was telling the age of steam tour guide, Matt, about Steve A. And he told me about this place, incredible to experience. Thanks for watching.
Those 1.5" scale trains are really nice! That first engine with the fancy control and gauges was amazing! Thanks Pappy!
Very glad you came along with me Roy, that Baltimore and Ohio was definitely top notch, the remote alone blew me away. Would like to volunteer some time up there on their working days, but my schedule right now is brutal, but I'm sure gonna try. Thanks for watching.
What a Blast. Miss my little live steamer. My brother sold it on me, telling people I passed on....
Oh well who knows, I might get another decent sized one, once settled in the US.
Oh man, don't think I'd ever speak to my brother again if he did something like that, lol it would be great to get in to this hobby, but man the cost is nuts. Thanks for watching.
@@TriGogglin I haven't spoken to him in 8 years now, I only found out about it through a friend at the local live steamers club here. He isn't my family, disowned him totally. Thanks to him the blood family is totally split.
@@Ausmerica sorry to hear that Arty, can't pick your family. But you have great friends.
@@TriGogglin yes very true. I have some great friends in the US that are family to me.
Danny would love to have one of these at Lake Kissimmee State Park. Slightly bigger. He dreams big. It looks cool.
That would be great to have one of your own, thanks for watching.
Great great video!!
Thank you, it was a great day.
Nice video. Love the facility and setting. I'm partial to steam but really like the first gen diesels. My grandfather was a judge in Ashtabula, Ohio. Many friends of the family worked for the railroad. I was taken aboard different locos in the yard and in some local runs. I'll never forget being in the tower as the freights clawed their way through on the harbor Branch, or rattled the windows as they dashed by on the mains.
Was the shay Nelson's?
He has some beautiful equipment.
Thats so great you got to experience such things, the stricter rules these days don't allow for it. They ruin everything.. lol . I'm not sure who owned the Shay, but it sure was beautiful. Thank you for sharing your story. And I appreciate you watching. So glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for the shout out!
Very welcome matt, wish I could have talked with you more, it was great seeing you again. That place is amazing. Glad you told me about it. Or I would have never seen it.
Great video with lots of detail
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it.
@@TriGogglin Hi if you get time Have a look at my channel. See what you think. Thanks for your support and time.
@@medwaymodelrailway7129 for sure, I sure will, and thank you for your support.
That looks like fun
Most definitely, video can't explain it. Thanks for watching Dex
Totally Awesome video! I could have watched this for an hour! Great job Pappy!
these are amazing to me, total dedication to these guys, Just excellent!
For sure Dave, the craftsmanship on the steamers was near perfect. The sights sounds and smell of the coal was intoxicating. And the layout of the track was just perfect for that property. Glad you liked it and came along for the ride.
What an awesome Park they take very good care of their equipment
Yes all who showed up, had great looking trains, and the grounds very well kept, thanks for watching.
Nice video Pappy. Now you know why the inch and a half scale bug will bite you hard and won’t let go.
Lol for sure, we was like, if I sell the car, we could get one of these, 🤣🤣 there was some amazing steamers there and the place was set up so nice. Now I see what your addiction is all about,, I figured you'd like this one, thanks for watching Steve.
The bug has now bit you Pappy. I promise you it won’t let go.
@@stevearnold2304 i need some bug spray lol, oh im plotting a sceaming.
It’s not a cheap hobby for sure but there are ways to get started that I can steer you to when and if you want.
If that day ever comes, you be the first person I would even consider calling.
PS: Your editing skills fascinate me! Phenomenal work there
Thank you Dave, I just try to keep it interesting and not bore you to tears lol, and appreciate you telling me these things. I also liked you put some words on your thumb nail on your last video.
Great camera perspective!
Thanks Matt, I enjoyed the day, and tried to keep the video interesting for people to watch to the end, thanks for the compliment. Much appreciated.
Excellent place. Garrett of Kokosing Valley Model RR gave my family a ride to his train there. I looked for him in the video but didn’t see him. He’s a volunteer there. Great video. Thanks for sharing Pappy.
Thats awesome you been there, so you know exactly how awesome it was. So glad you and yours had the experience, The wife and I had a great day. Thanks for watching.
Thanks for the tour Pappy. It looks like a great place to visit, especially during one of their big meets. Glad you were able to share your fun.
Very welcome, very nice place, not necessarily a tourist location, and not a club, its privately owned but loves to share with fellow hobbiest. Very friendly people.
hope heath watch this since his engine is on it and steve A should like it and is there any place you never been too lol
Lol Dwight, yeah i had heath in mind when i put that GG1 on there,, and there's many many places I've not got too but ill try and get them all lololol
Pappy, that was a great showing of what they had there. Quite the amazing collection of rolling stock.
I was definitely thinking of you when I came across the GG1, thinking you'd love that for sure, thanks for watching....
@@TriGogglin The amount of time and effort that went into the creation of all those locos.
Great place and looked to be a great time! Thanks again for the video tour!
It most certainly was a great day, was glad to be a part of the action that day, lot of friendly helpful people who taught me a little about that scale hobby.
They have some beautiful engines and rolling stock . Was this an open house ? The diesels looked great , I just can't get past the lawn mower motor sounds 😜😂 the steamers sound like steamers . Thanks for taking us a long , I was wondering if they were goin to give ya a ride !
Thanks Jerry, the ride was fantastic, this place is not a club, or a tourist spot, its more of a friendship or fellowship by the owner, not sure how to explain it.. he has meets and working days for fellow Hobbiest to come and enjoy his property, I talked to a few people learned alot and left a donation in the box to help with something. The steamers were coal fired, and the diesels were basically v twin 4 strokes, some had sound and bells to cover the lawn mower noise.
Wow, there was an amazing variety of locomotives and rolling stock! Thanks for the cool video!
Most Welcome, the wife and I had a great day there. Just in awe of the coal burners. And yes the rolling stock was amazing.
👍👍
Thank you 😊
good vid
Thanks lee, it was a great day, thanks for watching.
