    An ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE Ross !!!! Even the platform is beautiful !!! Question; How do you get that unit on and off the tracks ? ....Michigan

      I use a tilting utility trailer with a winch. There are 2x6 laying flat the act as tracks for the railroad wheels. The steel railroad wheels are almost impossible to find.

    what a beautiful machine indeed - and a very smart sounding whistle too.

    Great vidio, you should try wood pellets, very hot... Thanks for the morning coffee...

    So cool. Man it must be heavy and bulky though. I can see why a pit bike engine with a big muffler might be more transport friendly.

      The most difficult part of it is finding the railroad Wheels

    that whistle is a bit aggressive on that tiny locomotive

      I think if you build your own locomotive you can put any whistle you want on there!? 😂

      I never really went at its top speed. Got scary.

    @darrellstephen3085 10 месяцев назад

    How far can you travel on that track?

    • @rossbendixen
      @rossbendixen  10 месяцев назад +1

      About 3 miles in each direction. The tracks have been removed and it is now a walking, biking trail.

      @darrellstephen3085 10 месяцев назад

      @rossbendixen how sad that it is gone. Use of hundreds over the use of one I guess.
      Any other options for you?

    You really just reuploaded your 8 year old video that got 2 million views in hopes of more. Didnt you.

    • @rossbendixen
      @rossbendixen  Год назад +3

      That's kind of a weird comment. "Didn't you". Sounds to me like you are jealous. You also make it sound like I am paid for my videos. I have never been paid in any way for my RUclips videos. The real reason I reposted it is that many new youtubers have probably never seen it. Ross

      Thanks for reposting, I had indeed never seen it. 2 million and 1 views and counting! 😂
