This layout's motto is "What, me worry??" -- (Alfred E. Neuman, fictitious mascot of "Mad Magazine" catchphrase, which was NOT created by Mad Magazine.)
its probably the weight, my dad used to get around this problem by using scale speeds, and when that wasn't enough by weighting his freight cars with stacks of pennies glued together and then glued to the floor of the cars.
Entertaining video , just like my layout sometimes. The rattling sound from a derailment is terrifying to my ears. It's a sign to put the train into emergency when I hear that.
My HO layout is 26’x 26’. The mainline is double tracked. We run four trains of about 20-30 cars each. You have to watch what’s going on all of the time so that a minor derailment like most of these doesn’t turn into a disaster. Fouling the other mainline can cause a real pileup. Over the past 30 years,we’ve worked out most of the bad spots, and trains tend to run well, but you still have to watch. If you’re alone, you can either run the four trains, or switch the yard or industrial tracks, but not both. I need at least one of my sons with me to do both.
These things happen on the best layouts..... like children, model railroads are guaranteed to let you down in company. Actually, that break-away with the Colorado & Southern mogul did happen a time or two in real life, making it probably the most authentic incident in the whole film!
I might be sleep deprived right now, but is that Calliope Mori I hear at 2:09? I feel like I remember her saying that during Korone's iconic "I'm die. Thank you forever." Edit: I just checked, and yes. Yes it was.
1:32 Cajón Pass Train Wreck 1998/Jul/Fri A Long cargo train was going to another stop untill it decoupled with the rest that’s still on that derailed on a curve while the released cars crash onto the same curve as the rest of the train derailed and made a huge fire.
What causes all these derailments? Is it faulty rolling stock or is it bad track laying? If I had this many derailments on my lay-out I would be so frustrated...
Bent couplers are the main reason for derails on rollingstock , the couplers snag the track and knock the car off the rails , or derails can be caused by a wheel flange striking the end of a rail segment where two rails meet due to aged track. A derail can also occur when a train is going to fast for a certain area of a track such as a spur or a curved section heading into a straight or over a spur.
I don't see how your railroad stays In business with all these accidents lol
All about cash under the table 😂
Said no BNSF employee ever.

badly setup tracks on the layout and cheap couplers.
As a train driver, most of those could have been avoided with proper speed signals and procedures
That's just game

Good thing you Deus Ex Machina'ed that Nuclear cargo, that could have ended up being a real disaster
Maybe it's just me but it appears this layout likes to multi-drift and has something against Steam Engines and Plastic Couplings
yeah it just says, "no! I don't want that steam loco"
The layout is steam engine-phobic

My dad had a train layout when my sister and I were kids. This reminds me of my mom trying to run it. Oh, the fun we had!

All these great HO railroads on YT had me thinking of getting back into it, but this reminded me how finicky it can be. I'll stick with O ga., thanks!
yeah, IM a o gauge fan myself but i tried ho gauge once, it didnt work out well
God, watching this makes me so glad I switched to O scale. Infinitely less derailments
O scale gang
Agreed
Crys in 160th scale
Be careful Gomez may hear you.
I'm making the switch the O scale myself and I have had almost 0 derailments on my tracks.

Btw I love your channel

Nothing has been messed up so far, just to clarify. If anything it sped up coupler replacements.
@@SCL3618 and how many cars had to go get their couplers replaced?
@@DOTD7382 Mostly stuff in the earlier videos, nothing as of late.

Great video! Totally enjoyed that.
This railroad is basically penn central, change my mind 🗿🥶
The sound effects just make it so much funnier
If all of this was real life: Everyone: INTENSE SCREAMING
I should start saving my bloopers from my club for a video like this
Wow lmao! I love the sound effects added! Very cool vid though Someone's getting fired for all those derailments 🤣 lol
I see the troublesome trucks are at it again
"Luckily, no one was hurt."

Capped straight from footage!
Just discovered your channel, loving all these little sound effects and details
Thanks for watching!
Your railway's Tag line should be "You ship It but we might tip it".
That blasted Pillsbury car! It's cool to see steam engines on your layout; it's kind of a rare occasion. Is there a reason for that per chance?
Not really, just got the engine out for some mileage this time.

1. Best bojangles commercial
2. Lots of stored CSX locomotives
3. Where is the PSR edition
1:57 *task failed succesfully*
Seems you have a lot of csx marked locomotives the thing im wondering is how haven't they fired you yet?
It's the NS junkers you have to worry about
What a beautiful scale model of Ohio you have!

love the road runner part
I love the police set up and the nuclear thing
You should provide links to your Eurobeats, I couldn't find them
Was that HOn3 where the card got lose and soaked back into the locomotive
Awesome video. Always love these.
A coupling has snapped 😮
I like how the car transporting nuclear waste was about to derail and cause a catastrophy, but god was like "No, not today."
Can you tell me what you do if a train derails in a tunnel?
0:20 was probably my favourite out of all

I love the sound effects
This is a very nice and very big layout
Just goes to show...sometimes you're the dog - sometimes you're the tree....
I can’t tell if the trackwork is in bad condition or the equipment is awful shape. Maybe both
Track. Most of this equipment has visited other layouts with no issue.
@@SCL3618 so when is the track department actually going to fix the issue?
@@mattsmocs3281 Fighting through a backlog of club politics, time and deferred maintainence. Cash flow also cuts into what we can replace.
This remembers me to the good old days of Thomas and Friends.
I’m genuinely curious, is it like a track thing or rolling stock problems
Mostly track causing decently behaving cars to act up.
The sound made me laugh 😂
At 1:58, how did the two freight cars move by themselves?
Gravity.
@@ferky123 thank you.
1:30 Bert has the heartbreaking moment when he decides to detach the rest of the train carts from the train.
Would more weight in the cars help with this?
What Type Of Track Is That? I Know It's HO Scale But What Type Is It?
Regular Code 100 Atlas for the most part. Switches are mix of Atlas, Shinohara and Peco.
I like it😂😂😂
Pillsbury………..You’re Fired!
What causes all these derailments? Is it faulty rolling stock or is it bad track laying? If I had this many derailments on my lay-out I would be so frustrated...
Mostly aged out track, dips in benchwork etc. Spots that turn great performing equipment elsewhere into wildcards.
Bent couplers are the main reason for derails on rollingstock , the couplers snag the track and knock the car off the rails , or derails can be caused by a wheel flange striking the end of a rail segment where two rails meet due to aged track. A derail can also occur when a train is going to fast for a certain area of a track such as a spur or a curved section heading into a straight or over a spur.
Finally some more things that always crash
Hey I saw an Amtrak train in the background. Could you run it for a video some time ?
