0:55 The East Tennessee & Western North Carolina, affectionately known as "The Tweetsie", was a most unusual line having both standard and narrow gauge lines on its system, which ran from Johnson City, Tennessee to Boone, North Carolina, a total of 65.3 miles, not including a 2.6 mile branch from Montezuma to Pineola. Although the standard gauge portion of the line survives to this day, the 3-foot gauge trackage was abandoned in 1950. As the train winds its way along 3-foot gauge line, we are guests in the caboose, and later on, in the cab of the little Baldwin engine. Winding through the Doe River Gorge, we're reminded of other narrow gauge lines much farther West - how lucky we are to have this record of this wonderful line. Although the narrow gauge portion of Tweetsie closed down in 1950, Engine number 12, Combine/Chair 15, and Excursion Car 11 are still in service as tourist hauler at Blowing Rock, North Carolina, also known as "The Tweetsie". As the Crew goes about their daily business, of setting out, picking up freight cars, and caring for the little Baldwin, we are treated to sights long forgotten in modern railroading. It is interesting to note from the company time table, dated October 15th 1883, that, quoting; "Through the gorge, and at all points where the rock or land slides are possible and in descending heavy grades trains must be kept under perfect control, and speeds must not exceed 6 miles per hour" end quote. And also the time table cautioned, "Trains must not under any circumstances run at a higher rate of speed than 15 miles per hour.". Have you ever seen a brakeman working his way over the tops of the cars with a brake club?
Yeah, I'd be down for seeing what you do in other games if you want. Your Minecraft house was beautiful, and a good Railroads Online wreck is always a sight to see.
Felt. Its not easy when it comes to modeling/kitbashing. Ik cuz I do both. The last couple months ive been bashing B&O Shiz. - That 4501 looks interesting. I'm intrigued to see the final product. Same for the NG Articulated
the jump from peaceful biplane to RDR2 with pizza time, to seeing a bomber pulling a loop... very interesting Take your time big man, let yourself rest :]
I didn't really think you uploaded a lot in general so. No biggie for me. Really dig that create mod train. AWVR scene was pretty cool too. And whatever the hell that Red Dead 2 (?) segment was. Wreck of ol' 9.7.
I was wondering about your 4501. I remember seeing it on your projects list, and I was actually considering asking about how you were gonna do it, whether that was gonna be a K&L kitbash or a full model
I know you’ve probably heard it many times before (and you’re probably tired of hearing it), but your models look super good and if you were to release them as payware people would absolutely buy them. I totally understand your choice in keeping it all private, i just felt i needed to say it. On another note, I think a compilation of ‘best bits’ or ‘funniest moments’ from shotgun roulette, warthunder, lethal company or RDR2 would be quite entertaining to watch
Okay, i've got one question and one question only, WHERE DO I GET THOSE RIO GRANDE NARROW GAUGE TRAINS?!!? I need them, like, really need them for my Alamosa to Silverton recreation from what it used to be like back in the day.
Lovely videos, I understand the burnout. I get that with simulators, and with real world involvement. If you have any detail questions about 4501 and it's variants (or 630), please drop a line to me at TVRM and I should be happy to provide what I can.
Completely understandable. Burnout happens to the best of us for anything, not just RUclips. If you need to take a break, that's alright with us! Also, looking forward to the possible random game clips
Don’t get me wrong I love your train videos but seeing those other clips from Minecraft trains to gta and others is something I would definitely watch so I think you should do it but only if u want to and like doing it ❤
The narrow gauge 2-6-6-4 scares me
Agreed
Honestly I quite like it lol
you and us both and that's coming from a Rio Grande foamer (HOW IS A CAMAL BACK STRONGER THAN MY PRECIOUS 2-8-2!)
@@RRD7470 I think he said proposed 2-8-8-2
you and me

Take your time big man, let yourself rest :]
Glad to see more videos! (P.S -Your Illinois Central Railroad 371 Class models are sweet!)
Everyone start panicking! A.J Wright has done it again!

Surprised that you're curious, despite these being silly virtual trains that I don't need. Lmao
Glad to see your back
Not entirely. Just popping in

LET THE CHAOS FLOW!
Us SOU modelers need these in our hands man
If you're a SOU modeler, can't you just model em? Lmao.
@@thatredfokker model train modeler and trainz sim yes but mine won't ever be that good . I'm not that good with modeling
The 2-6-6-4 is mind boggling
I am mildly terrified of it

Welp, nvm, there are the clips...I guess?
Thanks bro. And yeah there will be more clips, those are just random ones I had on hand, lmao
Beamng with multiplayer and train mods is funny.
I'm honestly Really Surprised that you don't have a discord server, it seems like you would actually have one.
can you do a alaska railroad steam locomotive
Don’t get me wrong I love your train videos but seeing those other clips from Minecraft trains to gta and others is something I would definitely watch so I think you should do it but only if u want to and like doing it ❤
You ever gonna make something for railroader? 👀
Yes, actually. SOU 542 is planned to be ported over as an experiment. Railroader as a whole is a really promising game, even in its beta stage
