I do believe this video showcased almost every Accucraft D&RGW loco they’ve made, except maybe the K-37. I didn’t make note of that monster. But I did note some of the rarer ones like the C-21 #361 and the South Pacific 4-4-0.
Thank you for the nice words Patrick. The base board is James Hardy (16mm ) Backer Board - Cement sheet , It lasts very well but is quite heavy to work with.
@@grahamfordham4510 Thank you. I'll look into using that. I was also thinking about finding something like a plastic composite board. Take care. Again, lovely trains!
I'm not tracking how these work. Are there little coals and little fires in them heating up a little bit of water? How long do they run after filling up? I would think they run out pretty quick. How do you start a fire in them? I need to see how these things work.
Most of the locomotives in the video are gas fired. There were is a gas tank in the tender. Running time is up to an hour with water top up along to way. You can get some of these locomotives with coal fired boilers and by regularly adding carbon and water and lubricant oil while running they will run all day
wow these locomotives are beautiful! So what is this 1:24 scale? Are there a lot more narrow gauge live steam offerings available compared to say 1:32 or 1:29 scale. is the track 45mm or?
Hello yes most of these are either 1/24 or 1/19 scale they are all either Accucraft or Aster locomotives. They all run on 45mm track. I only have 1/32 scale live steamers my self which also run on 45mm track so we get a good variety of locomotives most Run days.
Most of the locomotives in this video are manually operated but adjusting the regulator in the cab. However you can also fit servos to operate them with a hand help remote control.
Hello Gary. Most are Accucraft with some Aster and Argyle locomotives as well. You there are any you are instrested in let me know the time in the video and i shall find out for you.
google my name and find hot metal, no more smoke from steam locomotives. on H0 scale use 8mm rod as long as the boiler. for O scale use 12mm This is the return of steam. engineers live 110y because this is a meditating locomotive. Diesel? 60y only old steam 70y electric 85.

Wonderful trains
I like when RUclips recommends awesome train videos like this.
Beautiful trains
Seeing 340 And 346 double head put a big smile on my face
Spending a Weekend Watching these Engines I’m Game!
A very interesting Videoclip and wonderful Loco's
That 4-4-0 unnamed loco is a beauty
Locomotives in America 🇺🇸 were so decoratively dolled up in those days! @4:33 @4:55 👍
Awesome locos!

Live steam is the coolest man. What beautiful sounds and looks. GOD bless you all
The dark colored American has a very nice "Bark". The big stack gives her a throaty sound. Ultra Cool!
Nice Movie from some great Steam Locos, lovin it! Thx for sharing!
Excellent video Graham with some nice locos and long trains there
Love the American steam!
Very nice video. Thanks for making it.
Soo nice
I love the red and silver one
Fabulous! ❤
Keep up the good work Graham, we all need it in these strange days.
Nice!
Nice video, and a good mix of motive power, I'm curious to the material that the track is attached to
Great movie!
Love the new content’m
Narrow gauge g scale.. seems cool you should make a double gauge track for both gauges!
veri nice locos!!!!!
Train Party!
Love the Rio Grande K-28.
Graham, love this! What type of material is that decking made from? Some of mine is going to need replacing this summer. Take care.
Thank you for the nice words Patrick.

May I ask how you weathered your rolling stock. Been wanting to weather my stuff but I’m afraid to ruin my very expensive cars. Thanks I’m advance.

@@grahamfordham4510 thank you for the info! I am on the accucraft site now looking at their offerings. Amazing!
I understand they run on steam like the prototype. But, my question is how are they controlled speed and direction wise? Are they radio controlled?
Most of the locomotives in this video are manually operated but adjusting the regulator in the cab. However you can also fit servos to operate them with a hand help remote control.
Where did you buy that train
What are the makers. Never seen some of these beautiful models here.
Hello Gary. Most are Accucraft with some Aster and Argyle locomotives as well. You there are any you are instrested in let me know the time in the video and i shall find out for you.

1:38 is that real grass next to the tracks or fake?
Hello it is fake grass beside this track.
@@grahamfordham4510 Oh really? Do you know what type it is and where I can find it? I really thought it was real
It is the fake grass used on tennis courts. You can normally get some from garden supplies.
@@grahamfordham4510 Awesome, thanks for the info!
wait is it powered by steam?
Yes all steam powered locomotives
