I really like seeing someone else in O scale who is able to limit themselves to one railroad and isn’t so easily influenced by what they see in the store leading to a huge random collection of engines, eras, and paint schemes that don’t correlate to each other in the slightest. A unified collection is so much more easy on the eye and more realistic. Keep at it!
Appreciate the comment! I certainly buy what I like and what fits my "era"
I only buy western railroads. ATSF, BN, SP, UP, MRL, Metrolink and Amtrak
Nah, variety is the spice of life. I like having options, and then making a region or era specific run session later on
Granted, I'm in N scale, but am I gonna run a Pennsy 4-4-0 on my layout that is a loose representation of modern-era Brooklyn, NY, when steam locomotives have been banned within city limits since at least the 1920s? Damn right I am! lol
@@JDStucks I myself am going to do a layout based off of a combination of futuristic, retro futuristic and modern stuff. One important thing about it was that for the most part with the exception of Amtrak and union pacific none of the modern class ones would exist in the same form or at all. For example, New York Central conrail Burlington, northern and Norfolk, and western, would still exist. However, I decided that since I like the modern Norfolk southern black paint scheme I was going to have that the original Norfolk Southern was still around, although I would use models pertaining to both the original Norfolk Southern and the modern one as if they were having a brand new modern paint scheme. Imagine how Santa Fe used both the yellow bonnet and the red war bonnet in the 1990s. That basically would be similar to how I would mix modern and original Norfolk Southern rollingstock together. What are some suggestions as to how I might do the able to mix the two together without having one being too predominant over the other?
Follow your passion, JD! That’s what it’s all about! 😄
Exactly!
Great video! I walked past you a couple of times at York yesterday. I didn't want to bug you! You guys always have so many people around you! I could do this same video with postwar turbines and berks. I really like buying variations so I totally understand your, "not having a problem" as I "don't" have the same problem...
Cody, I would have been glad to chat with you. Hopefully next year!
@@JDStucks sounds like a plan!
I appreciate the NS livery. Not boring to me. Looks like you have a pile of treasure invested in your “empire.” A very sound investment. Have fun at York. Good to see you younger gents in the hobby. You , Katy boy (RBP).
Nice collection of NS engines and seeing them all in action, I didn't realize MTH had produced a SD40E! Awesome Thanks!!!
I didn't realize it either! Glad I found one
Hi Jason great channel always look forward to see what's happening on the layout.. 👍
Sometimes less is more, i love the ns color scheme, my favorite is the ocs train
Simply put....just a beautiful collection. Lots to be proud of!!
Thanks!
Nothing boring with what I saw! They all look great!
Some of the most exciting trains on the layout! Nicely done. 🎉
Wow,Jason. I guess one can never have enough NW engines in one color scheme. Variety is not the spice of life here but it is the muscle. Enjoy.
Very nice!
I don't care what anyone else thinks...
Basic black and white works great 👍
The SD40E is cool.
Thanks for another great video Jason!
P.S. love seeing the continued progress on the layout.
Thanks Henry!
“It’s okay RBP won’t hurt you” - Jd Stucks 2022
Whoa.....that's quite the collection.
I enjoyed viewing them. Thanks Jason
Thank you for another fun episode, Jason! I grew up enjoying black and white locos when the NW rode those same tracks where you enjoyed NS 😊👍OH! PS Agree that you don't have a problem 😆
IO!
The only thing missing is a couple high hood SD40-2 Southern engines. I do see a few Union Pacific and CSX running on the NS lines as well. Nice collection.
No you don’t have a problem and I don’t have a problem too! I was singing that to my wife and then showed her the video! She loved it and said yea ok!! Lol. Great video!!!
Thanks Chris!
It's alright Jason. I'm boring to. 😆
I also have mostly NS as well
'Boring' is a relative term, Jason, and does not apply to you or your collection in my view. I'll admit that steam locos will always be my favourite, even with the history of environmental damage they did over the centuries, but your knowledge of railroad history and the economic function railroads provide to the general good of society worldwide, your interest in the models you collect and how the road names fit into your own experience is what makes your RUclips channel a must see for anyone interested in O gauge or O scale collecting and running a model railroad layout at its best. Thanks for taking us along!
Thank you Tom. I really appreciate that comment.
Welll, if you’re going to do ‘boring’ you might as well do it well and you did it quite well. You have a terrific fleet!
JD, I think you need just a few more of those "boring" engines. 😆 That is quite a collection! Thanks for showing them off.
I watched the video twice and missed the boring ones both times. 😲
Thanks for showing Jason. I am located in New Jersey and my son and I are PRR ,Conrail and now NS followers. We actually just pre ordered our first black and white NS Rail King Dash 8. This will go with our PRR, Conrail trains and kind of completes a little history of different rail names( We only need a Penn Central for that). I also ordered that book I mentioned to you Norfolk Southern at 40. Keep up the good work
Congrats , I think U have all the engines NS actually has LOL LOL. Great collection and video as always. Looking forward to seeing you and the others at York on Saturday.
See you there Joe!
Very nice video and layout ! All the other O gauge video's I have seen has the trains whipping around at 100 mph .
It was very nice meeting you at the York Show and the meet up. You have an impressive layout and collection of Norfolk Southern engines.
My first ever model engine was a northfolk southern engine!
I like your NS collection. There very tough looking with mostly black paint. I have the WSOR at the back of my property so I have a lot of WSOR. I also have a lot of Milwaukee Road being a Wisconsin guy. I’m glad your able to make light of being kidded about your boring locomotives.
I like it! Our collection is heavy on KCS and Great Northern reflecting the regions where I lived while I was growing up.
Great video! Wish I could come meet y'all at York! I have to say that is kind of mind-blowing that MTH has produced 22 different NS engines. I think I would have to combine my MoPac and Katy units to come close to hitting that. If you count the Lionel and Atlas models then I might be able to give you a run for your money. ;-) Are there any they made you still don't have? Thanks for the fun look at your collection! ~Ricky
There's a few still. Always on the lookout!
Love that black and white collection, have a great day
Great Video
I can’t even imagine trying to put these engines in a lash up
love the video’s, wish i got to see your layout before you moved. and LETS GO GUARDS
Right there with you JD in N scale but I still have a lot of Southern so adding a splash of gold helps. Thanks for the video
Layout is aight. 🤣🤣 ridiculous layout pimp 🚂🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥✊✊✊✊
Love the NS. My favorite existing railroad! (In my world, Chessie System lives on as a regional switcher operation). I'm a little surprised you don't have more than one Dash-9, since NS has/had over 1,000 in the fleet... But I suppose you may have gotten in after the models were in production and more readily available. Beautiful collection! Thanks for sharing! :D
I've been begging for more dash 9s. MTH only made them once in PS2. And only operation life saver paint for PS3. I hope someone makes them soon.
i'm a nut for NS too and ur NS layout is fire 🔥 it woud look sick in a massive power move
JD - you have invested heavy in the diesel department! Among others... I think we all have the train collecting bug!
Jd ,l Love Norfolk and Southern diesels ,l have 6 of them right now and planning on getting a few More to be Honest with you 😀 I would love to least have 10 different Locomotives Norfolk and Southern, keep up the Great Work 👍
Thanks David. Good luck getting more NS!
@@JDStucks thank you got a show to go to at York so l will definitely have more Very Soon
@@davidjohnson4918 Not if I beat you to it ;)
@@JDStucks yeah that's what l was thinking 🤔 😆 🤣
I'm just starting my collection and I have the same mentality lol. Plus I railfan a lot when I get off work and my poison is the AGS South here in Birmingham.
NS 1030 and 1111 are special. 1030 is the fogotten heritage unit, and 1111 is the bar code unit. Very nice setup!
Yep! Nailed it! Lol The last time I saw that many black (NS) engines was...🤔... well never! Lol Thanks for sharing, always enjoy your vids.👍😁
All power too you JD i also model NS and the most incompetent rail road in history The (P)enniless (C)entral LOL, i am in HO scale.i like all scales,i enjoy watching you videos.
Great collection! I am an NS fan myself, that's all I have in my collection except for 1 CSX sd40-2. You just can't beat the basic black and white design.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen you run the genset till now. It’s always been in that back top left corner of the layout. Like the sound of the horn.
Its a really cool engine. I haven't run it in a long time but its a fun one!
Love Norfolk Southern. Being in Mifflin County, Pennsylvania the main line from Altoona to Harrisburg runs though Lewistown, my home town, so I can see all kinds of train activities.
Personally I like Southern Pacific daylight and would love to have the beautiful 4449 in every scale so I could have a multi-scale layout to increase the perspective of a train slowly moving farther and farther away trading out duplicate trains in smaller scales
Southern Pacific is one of my favorite road names.
Love NS! I’m in the same boat as you. I got back into trains in 2016 and Ive behind and playing catch up, When Mike announced his retirement from MTh. It didn’t dawn on me to buy locomotives. Now I’ve been frantically searching for NS SD70ace’s. Can’t find any. I might have to settle for another roadname. I gave up my search for the MTH Premiere Virginian heritage unit. That is my grand unicorn.
If anyone is wondering why you can't get any NS locomotives, Jason has them all.
Bahahahaha!!!
Has to be the best video yet. GO NS!
Thanks
Great video Jason! We tend to model what we see. In my case it's Chicago area belt lines such as, The IHB, BRC, and The EJ&E.
As a fellow NS O scaler, I'd like to point out that there is plenty of variety. There are engines with the horsehead logo AND there are engines without the horsehead logo.
I’m almost at 500 Norfolk Southern locomotives. And still getting more!
Hi, Jason! There isn't a THING wrong with just having Norfolk Southern Black And White! I have a number of them in HO Brass, and a few in Scaletrains...I've been attached to that railroad since it's 1982 inception because I loved the Southern and Norfolk And Western! To me, they are not boring...but BOLD AND BEAUTIFUL BLACK AND WHITE! :)
Lol 😆 that’s cool.
I grew up seeing C&O, Chessie, now CSX.
We all have our favorites. 👍🏻
It's the same for me and the Illinois Central Railroad, by the way I live in Lexington Kentucky
No high hoods?? Nice video! I had to count my NS fleet. 27 not including HU's.
I'd like to add one once I find one!
wow...they just keep coming down the tracks!
Just a heads up for you 5:42 SD50 telling its long hood forwards by conductor's figure looking long hood wise is true but FRA Rules all locomotives since the 50's has to have a "F" at the stairwell to indicate Front for Crews. Best Norfolk Southern unit you have is the Ex-Conrail SD80Mac 5,000hp with wide radiator self-steering trucks and largest wheels of all Diesel locomotives Proformance is unmatched.
Never appologize for what you love
I always liked the ns diesels. I especially like the f units.
Good that your interest is in NS and not in the Aberdeen & Habernash or something. There are plenty of NS items all over. Perhaps the Company will hire you as a spokesmodel or something.
Lucky guy lol can't get a NS locomotives around here 🤣
Good morning JD,
Really enjoy your show by the way my name is Dennis and I am from England the UK could you please let me know where you got your engine shed from as I am very interested in purchasing one I would like the information many thanks keep the good work up unfortunately obviously been from England I can’t see you at the York show but I’m hoping to get over there one year when the York show is on thanks again Dennis.
Hello Dennis, thanks for tuning in from across the pond. I think I found it at a train store a long time ago. Atlas was making it at the time. Your best bet to finding one would probably be ebay
Exactly what did Chris do to the Ns ACE?😂
That semi-retired one is absolutely beautiful by the way fairly new or have you had that for a while
Nothing wrong with the NS scheme. The horse head was a great addition.
When it comes to boring locomotives, it’s the model not the railway for me. The smaller GPs and SD70s - total snooze fest!
The F units are fantastic but the ES and SD80s have got that real Tim the Toolman grunt about them!
I love your Norfolk southern railroad T-shirt and model trains
Love the sd80mac
Wellhello there Jason did you say BORING trains Jason we both know that not having trains is BORING but having TRAINS IS NOT BORING YOU R NOT A BORING TRAIN FELLA GOD BLESS ENJOY YORK PA GOD BLESS STAY SAFE ;-)
Thanks Carl!
Darn I just ordered something from Trainz yesterday lol.
I'm sure you'll need more trains eventually ;)
Whether they're all black or all armour yellow, to some people, they're not boring at all!
Hello Video super good 👍👍👍. Thanks...... Fim 🚂👮♀️✋
Good video
Cool video 😊
Jason, How did you first design your layout? I have a basement in our Wixom Michigan home and need some ideas to start.😊
I used SCARM on my computer to plan it all out.
All those beautiful MTH trains and they are history.
the sd40e being called a sd50 is the result of sd40e's being rebuilds of sd50's, so externally they're nearly identical
You have a problem you have a problem I'm still dying over that
Nothing boring about your collection. It's the ultimate in kid in a candy store O scale collection.
Something that might be kind of neat is to buy a Conrail 80mac or SD45 and put NS patches on it
Nawww CSX has the most boring paint sceme in my opinion 😂 CSX is still very nice, but NS is our baby 😁very nice layout and locomotives
I like those intermodal train
I also think it's time you and all your buddies kind of do a head count like Eric did I thought that was one of the coolest videos to see all the locomotives not to compare who's got more or less or whose ase better. But to see different locomotives learn the differences about them and why you people purchase which locomotives I think it's awesome a suggestion maybe you could do a live stream all you guys together or something would be really cool to pick out your 10 best each of you and talk about why when and how you got them that'd be something cool believe me I'm not a director by all means very interested person yes. Also I could see this layout you're creating now ending up in another magazine for sure you're doing it right you taking your time you're not cutting no corners I like it and it's a beautiful layout on top of it all right enough about my thoughts and ideas but let me know what you think about the Conrail thing I was just sitting here and I thought about it that's all if it's a no-go I would not be offended in any way enjoy your day like I said
I'll be doing one soon!
I'm new to the hobby. What track are you running? I have the MTH track with my RTR set, and I'm not crazy about it.
Thank you! Love the setup
I don’t think it’s boring. Don’t get me wrong I love steam locomotives. But I like diesels more. In fact I wish there was a O Scale 2 Rail club somewhere around North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina where I live and I can’t seem to find any. Sorry nothing against 3 Rail I just like 2 Rail better. 🤓
Like I said all a long JAS .....NORFOLK SOUTHERN RULES.....ENOUGH SAID.....!!!!
what the part number for the 6302? Maybe if your at york you can keep eye out for one
I actual bought one because of your channel. But on side note when some scenery going in?
Its coming :)
“We need more Cow Bell “
Just a heads up jd, the 2023 phase 4 diesel Norfolk Southern locomotives do not bother buying the boards turn off in them after so long, I was told that by a train repair person told me that and lionel is so backed up with alot of repair order's for 2023 locomotives and steam locomotives also.
Hey, nothing wrong with Norfolk Southern, I think that Norfolk Southern is cool 😎😎
Love it amazing
i got me the area 51 railroad thank u JDsstucks
Hi Jason, I noticed the coal loader over your right shoulder during the intro this video. It looks a little like the one near Marion, OH on US-23 I'm from Columbus (now in Detroit),and pass that old coal loader all the time. I'm curious, is that a kit, or was it scratch built? (apologies if you covered this in an earlier video...I'm behind on watching your channel!). Thank you
I SAW A BRIEF FOLLOW-UP TO THE YORK SHOW BUT CANNOT FIND IT TO WATCH AGAIN ... PLEASE UPDATE AND POST SO ALL CAN REVISIT YOUR SHOW EXPERIENCE ...
Bob, I have not posted a York 2022 video yet. Perhaps you saw my video from last year.
I don't think Norfolk Southern trains are "Boring". NS is one of my favorite railroads! The black and white with the horse works great! (Even though I'm more partial to the Southern Railway, one of Norfolk Southern's predecessors)
the only boring train, is a train i dont own! cause it cant be played with!
Norfolk Southern is a Unicorn! 🦄
