    I love this model train! Sort of resembles Walt Disney's Carolwood Pacific train set.

      @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte Před 10 měsíci

      When your eyes start to go bad you have to go to the larger scales. I’ve been modeling in On3 for over 40 years and enjoying it, Model Railroading is meant to be FUN. Thanks for watching

    • @davidboyd4026
      @davidboyd4026 Před 10 měsíci

      I remember reading an article in Model Railroader. Looking back with John Allen? I think ? About a layout called Gorre & Daphetid. That started my interest 😊

    • @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte

    Can you like buy unpainted On3 stuff then custom paint them?

    • @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte
      @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte Před 11 měsíci

      Yes you can, I painted and put sound in them, these modes are over 50 years old…sure is fun doing Model Railroading 👍🚂😀

    Mentioned on another video, beautiful modeling! Could you introduce the different engines / importer or builder of the model / if they are brass etc.?

    • @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte
      @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte Před rokem

      My three C-16’s are Sunset Brass Models and my two C-19 are MMI. My C-21 is an old Balboa models My 4 K class engines are also MMI. I only use Soundtraxx Tsunami 2 decoders in all of my locomotives. I hope that answers your questions, thanks again watching

  • @irvinlan4052
    @irvinlan4052 Před rokem

    I'm a fan! If you use a tripod for the camera work, would definitely take things to the next level. But the context is.. "chef's kiss", On3 Narrow Gage really hits the spot!

  • @Astro_dreagonz
    @Astro_dreagonz Před rokem

    You might want to change the chuff rate as it seems to have 7-8 chuffs per wheel turn while it should have 4, just something to note so it doesn’t songs like it’s going at Mach 10 while going 20 mph.

  • @michaellavrich4911
    @michaellavrich4911 Před rokem

    Very nice RR. Love the trestle and bridge in the opening shot and the line of coal filled high-side gons the train passes. It is also nice the see the DRGW #50, which usually dwarfs the narrow gauge rolling stock, itself dwarfed by the K-37, the largest of the NG steamers. I'm tempted to recreate this train on my 2 1/2" scale RR, but have only a C-16 to pull the train, which #50 really does dwarf!

    • @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte
      @on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte Před rokem

      Thanks Bill for watching…my Radius varies from 50”” down to a tight 40” the MMI loco’s are great because of the side lateral movement of the axles, and the C-class have blind drivers. My layout is small but I sure have fun with…and that’s what it’s all about having fun🚂

    • @billgrierson840
      @billgrierson840 Před rokem

      @@on3drgwnarrowgaugecrestedbutte My railroad is On30 with 26" radius curves. I have two MMI C-19's that run pretty good on those curves. My railroad is small also but also a lot of fun.
