I don't mean to brag or anything guys but if I did a video running all my trains in this format like Chris did it would've only taken me like 2 minutes tops
Well, I’m not 100% sure how you can do it in 2 minutes or less. (If you have like say 400 locomotives) But do what you want to man, let no one stop you!
My favorite thing about the Vision Line 700E Hudson is that it has fully moving drive gear. Even the valve rod and valve stem move which is so awesome to see in motion, it's just like a real locomotive's drive gear! That's something generic legacy steamers don't have, only the combination lever moves on regular legacy models (and even MTH's drive gear isn't as realistic as the VL 700E Hudson's).
What a collection Chris! Check out challenger 3985, SP 4449, MTH I Love Toy Trains set, I love Lionel boxcar, Disney collection, like the WDW 50 set and Disney 100 set, plus other sets, like the great locomotive chase, Lionel Lines, and more! But Thomas is indeed, the little engine who can!
Chris it doesn't matter how many locomotives you have. The fact that each one you own has sentimental value means everything. You can't take it when you go so enjoy them. Great video!

I have a challenge for you you should go to goodwill finds and see what you'll find I got a great a perfectly running 1950 rock island locomotive love your videos can't wait to see more of your videos
RBP, seeing all those trains a short time was so much fun. Thanks for your work. Did they all run when you put them on the track? What all did you have to do to get all of these to run?😊
Chris, awesome video and collection! It's neat to see the evolution of model trains from vintage to modern. They are all cool in their own way. Thanks for taking the time to put it together and share with all of us!
Seeing the frosty the snowman train run around that Christmas tree gave me nostalgic vibes from when i was a little kid seeing my first trainset run around a tree
Great video Chris, and well worth the wait! And I'll tell you, I really don't envy you all those engines, I envy you all that SPACE! That's it, NEXT house is gonna have a basement or I ain't movin'! Thanks for posting, it was enjoyable as always!
@@RBPTrainsI'm actually saving for the lionel super chief set. Any tips on buying it? You gotta answer this, because its your fault I want an O gauge train, lol. Where I live in Louisiana there are ZERO train shops within an hour of my house, so that's out of the question. So I'm buying online. Also, should I buy the set or should I buy different pieces separately? Thank you for your time.
You’re quite a unique person. A bit in the young side with an amazing love for steam. I’m amazed at your editing skills as well. Great channel I’m glad I stumbled upon. But this hobby is not usually inexpensive, especially in that scale. What do you do for a living, and are you married?😊
Great video Chris, it was definitely worth the wait lol. You really do have an amazing collection. Even though I model ho scale, I love trains of all scale
So every morning I wake up...I see my six year old son Calvin sitting like an old man (crossed legged in his tiny lazy boy) drinking his chocolate milk watching you! I think you found your number one fan😊
Hey RBP, when you were running that “Blackbonnet passenger train” it actually has a different name thanks to a old K-line catalog from 2004 & it’s called the Midnight Chief. Just to let you know.
You bet! I had recorded a segment explaining the name of the passenger cars but cut it for time. Always thought that was a cool name "Midnight Chief". :)
I think TM Books and Video would love your layout and maybe it can also be in one of TM's future videos one day. (Just a suggestion of course) P.S Its a really cool train layout!👍
I had the opportunity to see the Norfolk and western A class #1218 over the weekend at the Virgina museum of transportation. I was also luck enough to see J class #611 which was there for the weekend.
Great to have you back. Hope you and your family are good. I always thought you had a Marx train set, maybe I'm mixing you up with another RUclipsr. Anyways great to have you back making great videos
Thank you for sharing your engines and trains. And I appreciate the descriptions of the models. You have an excellent variety that span all era's and companies of O Gauge trains. Bravo..
great video Chris, I love all your trains but I'm partial to the 2-10-10-2 black bonnet Santa Fe but all your trains are beautiful. Thanks for posting this video.
I aspire to one day have a Milwaukee Road Hiawatha of my own. I love the colors and the way the observation car has such unique windows. Awesome train!
Do a video where every single other your trains are running without any of your interruptions . The video will be uploaded on March the 2nd and be called “ Lionel Trainspotting episode 1 “ and be 6 hours long.
Amazing video! The return of the Halloween camelback was great, but that Chessie Steam Special may have the softest whistle I have ever heard on a Reading T1.
How big is your layout to fit the Lionell scale sets? I wanted to rebuild my HO scale set from my childhood. I am also into city scapes and probably build in N scale for that. But your set looks so dang good!
Very awesome collection! For you to take a lot of your free time to provide this huge video for us, that's pretty awesome man. You deserve plenty of rest for this one lol
I have some ho scale nascar train sets only 6 of them they are diecast metal made back in the late 1990s by revel should have sent video didn't have time to do so they are earnhardt sr and earnhardt jr
This is such a great video cuz I can use this as like a wish list for me chris 😂. I’ll say top 4: Acela, GS daylight, blue comet, UP Rio grande heritage sd70
Great video as always, Chris. You have a special knack for combining history and enjoyment. I always your sincere and laid back approach to collecting a relief with a little poking in now and then. Makes viewing and listening a pleasure. Thanks for sharing.
I don't mean to brag or anything guys but if I did a video running all my trains in this format like Chris did it would've only taken me like 2 minutes tops
You and me both. 😊
Lol it would take my less than a minute
Well, I’m not 100% sure how you can do it in 2 minutes or less. (If you have like say 400 locomotives) But do what you want to man, let no one stop you!
It would take me like 20 mins.
Same 😂

Thank you for running the George Bush funeral train
Thanks Chris, I also enjoyed seeing different areas of your layout I hadn't really noticed before, albeit however briefly.
Watching model trains run around a layout is probably one of the most satisfying things to watch.
Agree!
I have 42 locos (including multiple units). They are in OO gauge. This is especially impressive that you’ve gathered this many in O gauge.
What a collection Chris! Check out challenger 3985, SP 4449, MTH I Love Toy Trains set, I love Lionel boxcar, Disney collection, like the WDW 50 set and Disney 100 set, plus other sets, like the great locomotive chase, Lionel Lines, and more! But Thomas is indeed, the little engine who can!

They're two, they're four, they're six, they're eight
Shunting trucks and hauling freight
Red and green and brown and blue
They're the really useful crew
All with different roles to play
'Round Tidmouth Sheds or far away
Down the hills and round the bends
Thomas and his friends
He's the cheeky one
(James) Is vain but lots of fun
(Percy) Pulls the mail on time
(Gordon) Thunders down the line
(Emily) Really knows her stuff
(Henry) Toots and huffs and puffs
(Edward) Wants to help and share
(Toby) Well, let's say, he's square
They're two, they're four, they're six, they're eight
Shunting trucks and hauling freight

This put a smile on my face 😄
Now i feel old
I wish I had the money to buy all these trains!! I am very jealous! You are extremely lucky to have these trains and the room to run them.
The Reason you Run All Your Engine Cause you have Pride in What you own.
Chris RBP - With out question BEST new era video - you've up staged your contemporaries.
Thank you James! This video was quite the project and I am glad it is done haha!
Welcome back Chris! Hope you and the collection are doing well.
Thanks my friend! Have a great summer!
@@RBPTrains likewise
I have a challenge for you you should go to goodwill finds and see what you'll find I got a great a perfectly running 1950 rock island locomotive love your videos can't wait to see more of your videos
so jealous ..... your collection and layout cost more than my house ..... fun watching .... thanks
After so many years, I finally see the doors closing on Acela🤪 express
You have so many more trains than me😮 I only have the Lionel Polar Express ready to play
RBP, seeing all those trains a short time was so much fun. Thanks for your work. Did they all run when you put them on the track? What all did you have to do to get all of these to run?😊
Thanks for watching! Yup, they are all functional. I had to add some grease to a few of them but they all powered up and behaved for the video :)
Chris, awesome video and collection! It's neat to see the evolution of model trains from vintage to modern. They are all cool in their own way. Thanks for taking the time to put it together and share with all of us!
Now we need an all train whistle/horn battle
Loved the video as always, but I would like to see you get an c&o M-1 steam turbine locomotive (originally built by the Baldwin locomotive works.)
Nice collection also I caught the Katy in my hometown the other weekend and personally it’s one of my favorites to.
I still need a couple of those The Katy shirts!
Seeing the frosty the snowman train run around that Christmas tree gave me nostalgic vibes from when i was a little kid seeing my first trainset run around a tree
Great video Chris, and well worth the wait!
And I'll tell you, I really don't envy you all those engines, I envy you all that SPACE!
That's it, NEXT house is gonna have a basement or I ain't movin'!
Thanks for posting, it was enjoyable as always!
Thanks Wayne!
This was a great video. keep up the great work RBP Trains
Maybe Eric Siegel will follow suit with his collection! That'll take several hours to run them all plus hundreds of hours to edit it! LOL!
That would be a year long mini series! hahaha
Wow so many flawless trains! Pretty impressive.
Thanks Chris really enjoyed the video
Trippy trolley is crazy 😂😂😂
I know right? Haha!

That meme of DiCaprio pointing is me seeing that Empire State Express loco that I also have, if that is the K-Line one.
yes, yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes, yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes
Question for the commenters and rbp if he sees it. When is the Lionel 2023 volume 2 catalog coming out?
Hey William! Not sure of the exact date but it should be out this summer.
Love your videos, RBP! Do you have an AC-12 (4-8-8-2) cab forward in your awesome collection?
Thanks! I do not have a Cab Forward as of yet. Maybe one day!
The Oscar Mayer Steamer is a great one. But the Hudsons are the ones that remain near and dear to my heart.
You’re quite a unique person. A bit in the young side with an amazing love for steam. I’m amazed at your editing skills as well. Great channel I’m glad I stumbled upon.
But this hobby is not usually inexpensive, especially in that scale. What do you do for a living, and are you married?😊
I think the only time Lionel made a non-American toy train was when they made the Thomas characters, since they're based on British locomotives.
Long before that, they made the 520 boxcab, which is based off of a Peruvian mining locomotive.
Thanks!
Dude, you have quite a collection of trains 🙂🙂 That's Awesome 😎😎
Looks better than my HO layout
That’s a lot of work but you did it
Can't believe it is finally done!
F units are probably the most oldest ones because we were probably built in the 19 centuries
I would have been fine if this video went an hour long. I wouldn’t complain Chris
0:11
Thomas and James just Chilling in the background
Awesome trains Chris. Why is the MKT your favorite railroad?
Congratulations you did it 🎉🎉🎉
I love your engines.
Great video Chris, it was definitely worth the wait lol. You really do have an amazing collection. Even though I model ho scale, I love trains of all scale
Yeeees!!!
So every morning I wake up...I see my six year old son Calvin sitting like an old man (crossed legged in his tiny lazy boy) drinking his chocolate milk watching you! I think you found your number one fan😊
This made my day! Chocolate milk makes it even better, haha. Tell Calvin I said hello!
7:50 I feel like people (like me) who like trains are inspired by Thomas and Friends. It was a W show 😢
Wow Chris thanks for taking the time to put all this together great job!
It ended up being a lot of fun to run everything. Some trains had been on the shelf far too long! :)
@@RBPTrains Understand that fully Chris
Hey Chris, out of all your locomotives, do you have a favorite one??
I’ve been used to HO and N scale but not O gauge, but I’m getting used to my DCC UP 1943 unit
Do you have an Aerotrain that was produced by GM. I think MTH makes an O scale version. Would be cool to see running on the layout!
Also did you get rid of the S1 or did I miss it? Also a fascinating engine. Love the videos.
Chris, I thought you had an MTH B&O 4-4-0 along with the matching woodsided passenger cars? I didn't see it on your video.
Yup! 12:37

Glad to be back! My Dad has a Marx set. I will need to do a video on his collection next :)
A book 4U that Amazon sells-Train Wrecks-By Robert C. Reed-all kinds of in this book, only B & W Pages. A book for a RR Buff.
Thank you for sharing your engines and trains. And I appreciate the descriptions of the models. You have an excellent variety that span all era's and companies of O Gauge trains. Bravo..
great video Chris, I love all your trains but I'm partial to the 2-10-10-2 black bonnet Santa Fe but all your trains are beautiful. Thanks for posting this video.
Thanks Roger!
I'm just curious what can I please have. I am sure I don't have enough money for and can I have one?
BROTHERMAN!!!! Thoes Engines Ain't nothing but right BRO!!!! BEAUTIFUL, COOL MAN COOL , THANKS H.&J.😀😃😄😁💛💙💚👍👍

Nah I only got 4 trains and 2 only work if I give them a push
How many trains do you have. Stupenda collezione
Awesome!!!😮
Awesome video Chris, enjoyed seeing all your trains and learning about them and seeing them run.
Great job!
Thanks Randy!
Awesome Chris! Thanks for sharing all of them in one video. I know that was a ton of work to put together.
Thanks for watching Steve!
@@RBPTrains what would you say are your 10 favorite train sets? Obviously, the Katy is number one but I’m curious as to what the others are.
Nice collection Chris, great show. Love your passion for trains.
I'm guess that's about 2-300 hundred dollars worth of trains....🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fantastic!👍👍
Something like that! haha
Amazing video! The return of the Halloween camelback was great, but that Chessie Steam Special may have the softest whistle I have ever heard on a Reading T1.
Wow RBP very cool....
How big is your layout to fit the Lionell scale sets? I wanted to rebuild my HO scale set from my childhood. I am also into city scapes and probably build in N scale for that. But your set looks so dang good!
his table takes up 12ft x 27ft
Looks like Victor beat me to it! Thank you Victor!
No problem, love your channel. Wish I had the room and money a layout that size
No Southern Pacific Cab Forwards yet @RBP Trains
Not yet!
Wow what a great collection I saw alot of engines I need to get and you are right Hudson’s are special
Fantastic
8:20 I love Thomas
you need a royal hudson to complete the collection of 4-6-4
A Royal Hudson would be a cool addition!
My grandfather has a soo line sd40, and it has the same whistle as that daylight f3. It’s such a loud but unique horn to listen to
Great show Brotherman!😀😄😊😄
Quick question, what happened to that MTH Spongebob train?
We gave that one away as a raffle at the April York Show during the RUclips Meet and Greet event. Went to a great home!
@@RBPTrains Ok, Just asking. Think you might try and get the "I Love Toy Trains" variant someday?
Very awesome collection! For you to take a lot of your free time to provide this huge video for us, that's pretty awesome man. You deserve plenty of rest for this one lol
Thanks for watching! It took a few late nights for sure!
I have some ho scale nascar train sets only 6 of them they are diecast metal made back in the late 1990s by revel should have sent video didn't have time to do so they are earnhardt sr and earnhardt jr
Very cool! I miss those races I used to watch as a kid when Dale Sr was still with us.
A review of a past catalog that you and friends have several pieces in might be fun. How did Lionel do 5 years later ?
I’ve been looking forward to this all week
Thanks for watching Mike!
Awesome video Chris. You do by far put out some of the best train layout videos. Keep up the awesome work!! Can't wait for the next video.
Thank you very much!
6:58 the Union Pacific Hotdog. 🌭
This is gonna be a good video😀
Next time do all the rolling stock and the locomotives
We get it Chris, you have a lot of Hudson’s😂
I was waiting to see the engine from hell, the Marx 666 iron horse.
