In this video we are going to take a field trip to a Train Show called Rails Along the Rio Grande in Albuquerque, NM. I bought a few things and I will be showing what I bought.
Thank you guys for participating in my video. I have been a fan for over 10 years! It was great to meet the both of you and be able to talk to you guys. My son Levi loves trains and I hope he continues to love them as much as I do. Thank you for watching my video and I look forward to seeing the progress on your layout! I also do very much enjoy the Mustang content. Beautiful car!
Awesome haul JT! Every train show I go to I always end up going way over budget lol. Love the BNSF loco and cars you got, need to add more to my collection! Cheers Brian
Hi JC. always great to see younger guys begin to take an interest in o gauge railroading. Most of my collection is post war, but there's also some pre war mixed in as well. I've always been partial to o gauge trains because they are simpler to maintain and service. But however you do it, Happy Railroading! New subscriber, btw!
This was exactly me and my family the last 2 years. Just moved to a different Province here in Canada, and found out about the local model show. been about 6 years since i went to one. My dad was the one to get me into modeling, and he said we should go and look. i brought maybe 200 cash with me, and that was what i was planning to use. to say we went over budget was an understatement. i ended up spending 600$ on cars and a loco, my dad ended up spending 400 on some Diecast equipment and a loco, and my brother who doesn't model ended up spending 300 on a Canadian Pacific Loco and Shunter he liked. Last years show, i went with just my brother, and he said and i quote "ill bring 200, and that's your budget" and i laughed and said ill match it. well he was walking around and found 3 locomotives he liked since he was getting recommendations on RUclips for Modeling videos due to what i was watching lol. long story short, we walked away with almost 4 boxes worth of stuff again, 5 locomotives, and about 500 over budget between he 2 of us. This year, im just going to say a low number, since what's going to happen is we will probably go double whatever i say lmao Hope you had a good time.
That’s a great story! Lol. Same for me. I always preorder stuff through out the year and I always tell myself to stay under budget for train shows so I can cover the cost of my preorders so I have have an easy conscience and then boom the bed of my truck is full lol. I like that you got your brother into trains. That really cool that you can share a hobby with your family. Its similar to that with my fiancé. My fiancé is always wanting to learn about the hobby and fully supports my addiction lol. We enjoy watching train videos on RUclips now. Now my two boys are obsessed with trains. It’s only going to get more expensive when they can actually start collecting trains for their own collection. When I was a kid I burned a whole in my parents pockets when we went to train shows. Thank you for watching my video too!
@@modelrailroadingthesouthwest Im supporting my brothers addiction this weekend actually. hes a sledder (slang for snowmobiler here in Canada) and hes taking us to a swap meet for some parts and to chat with the community out here. supposed to be 300 people trading, selling and just chatting about the snow and when itll be here. and loved the video as always. right now im trying for the life of me to make a 1/87 scale RC, and its painful to say the least, but im still trying! Have a good day JT
I am going to take a guess and say the GE Rio Grande loco isn't scale because of the swinging pilot and its ability to negotiate such tight curves. However, I hope by subscribing to your channel that you can make some sense of the O scale world and help the rest of us in the process do the same. I haven't had any O scale/gauge trains for over 60 years, so, I lost track of the market a while ago!
I will have a lot more O gauge/scale content in the future. I already have a couple new pieces of rolling stock that I will be introducing to the channel. I am definitely going to build an o gauge layout. Look out for that content in the future. Thank you for watching and subscribing! I am doing a ton of research so that I can be well educated in future videos.
Never Underestimate Small Trainshows. Love them.
Exactly true. I really do enjoy smaller shows!
JT , Thanks for bringing the show here and thanks for speaking to Gavin and I !!!!!
Great seeing that young man with a great train and loving it !!!

Thank you! It’s so hard to stay in budget when you see everything that you want lol. Thanks for watching!
Very nice
Thank you!
That looks Like a Train show for Me.
It was a great one!
Lots of product for a small train show…you can never go and not buy something 😂😂..nice additions to your collection
That place was packed with vendors! I think I need to go to an AA meeting for buying model trains 😂. Thank you for watching!
I don't do model railroading, (I'm infected by a disease known as diecast plane collecting) but i love New Mexico and train shows.
Lol. There are so many diseases. That is a cool hobby! NM is a beautiful state. Thank you for watching!

@@tesleywhompson9555 that sounds like a cool swap meet to go to! Hope you all have fun! 1/87 RCs must me a huge challenge.
