I’m binge watching/listening to your videos as I’m building my model railroad! It’s what i.e. fell in love with riding the Durango and Silverton in sheer cliffs and narrow gauge steam!
We did an in-depth Big Train Tour on the DGRS layout a while ago and we plan on doing a full episode on the HO layout eventually. ruclips.net/video/DPt9bmvdNH8/видео.html
I've grown up with Trackmaster trains and wooden trains. My trackmaster trains are all Thomas-themed as I've got nothing from Plarail in Japan (though I wish I did) and the collection is still with me today. Dusty and almost all have lost traction tires and the ability to be battery operated bust what is fun is watching the wheels spin and side rods move as they're pushed around. Sadly, time has removed the pushing feature thanks to Mattel as well as other changes. Plarail seems to be keeping their trains and old Thomas designs along with All Engines Go versions but it's sad and I'm not sure how long the OG freewheeling Thomas Plarail merchandise has left in terms of living and continuing to be produced amongst Japan's non-thomas Plarail trains and rolling stock. For my wooden trains, I have a big collection that is growing bigger and bigger since recently because of the decline of Trackmaster. The real train appearances and rolling stock is amazing and there's so many designs and colors. Sadly, it seems like they are starting their decline in availability. BRIO seems to be the only one that is going to keep producing them. Whittle Shortline is unknown but maybe they can have a comeback. The wooden train collection will still continue to grow even if BRIO is the last standing. Toy trains are always going to be a part of me even if the companies are aiming for kids with them. Adults love and collect toys like Hot Wheels so collecting trains aimed for different ages is not that different. My wooden trains will be played with in years to come. As for the Trackmaster, it may receive some play but as they're aging, probably a display case is a good retirement for the older Trackmasters. As for wooden, they already have a future just waiting for them.

Neat.
With model railroading today, bit pricey but i don't care, it's one of my favorite hobbies and i can say i have my own locomotive(s) to run.
I love Thomas trains
Hey you using some of Mark "@Hyce777" Huber's music
Whenever we can....
Great video! However would have loved to see the two beautiful model railroad exhibits showcased at the Museum.
