Heritage Weekend | Day 1

On August 24th and 25th, 2024, I went to Tweetsie Railroad in Blowing Rock, North Carolina for their annual Heritage Weekend event. Usually, both of the park's steam locomotives run during the event, but due to last minute mechanical issues, East Tennessee & Western North Carolina 12 was unable to run, leaving White Pass & Yukon 190 to be the sole operating locomotive for the event as well as t...
A Day in the New Hope Valley
zhlédnutí 166Před měsícem
On July 27th, 2024, I visited the New Hope Valley Railway in Bonsal, North Carolina for the first time since 2013 to see and ride their Brew n' Choo trains, pulled by US Department of Defense 65 Tonner 671 and US Air Force 80 Tonner 1640 respectively. The NHV holds a special place in my heart, as it was the first heritage railroad I ever visited, and their main steam locomotive Carbon Limestone...

Sorry if this is late at all. This took a lot longer to edit than I wanted it too. Here is the 1,000 subscribers special, and what better way to celebrate than a music video featuring the number one blue engine we all know and love: Thomas! As you all may know, Thomas is one of my biggest passions and inspirations, so if it weren’t for Thomas, there would be no Ben Benson Studios. Song: "Number...

A Moment with Unity

On June 26th, 2024, I went to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to see the SS United States, which is currently docked at Pier 82 in South Philly. While I am obviously more of a train guy, I will admit I have a soft spot for certain ships and ocean liners, and the Big U is no exception. As a lot of you may know, the SS United States Conservancy has recently been evicted from Pier 82 and must find a ne...
A Short Visit to Coal Country
zhlédnutí 294Před 2 měsíci
On June 23rd, 2024, I revisited the East Broad Top Railroad in Rockhill Furnace/Orbisonia, Pennsylvania originally intending to see 2-8-2 16 "Nick" run again. Unfortunately as a lot of you may know, 16 has suffered a cracked driving wheel and will not be operating for most of the year. While I was very saddened by this, the EBT made up for it by running their M-1 Doodlebug instead, which only r...

I love Thomas i was kid
Coolest shit I've seen in a while
AYO WAS THAT THE BITE OF 87???????
Your final challenge, spend 10 years at Freddy freakbears pizza.
AW HELL NAW YO ASS TWEAKIN LOY
Nice video, just want to inform you that it’s 31’s Crosby 3
@@StrasburgRailProductions Oh :(
@@BenBensonStudios It would sound nice if she wore 7002’s whistle but she is actually wearing 31’s whistle
I thought that was Tweetsie for a second
@@RailfanLoy LOL nope. Tweetsie is another 3 hours away from where this was filmed.
I heard that they're trying to restore a 2-6-2 there, plus their tank engine they have
Correct. Work on Cliffside Railroad 2-6-2 110 will start once their tank engine 17 is done.
Nice that you got to visit a railroad from your childhood! BTW, how do you do those onboard shots at 1:41?
I simply rest my camera on the car I'm riding in and just record for a few seconds at a time. Sometimes I stick my camera out of the car a little bit if I have to.
Wish I could’ve gone.. but I’m stuck in Michigan
Wow, Thomas has pulled Hello Dolly Coach and awesome coaches while going backwards! Interesting!
The memories of me playing Sonic R on my PS2 copy of Sonic Gems Collection on holiday on Skegness (the PS2 version was a Japan and Europe) My childhood was mostly made up of these 2 blue characters
I wonder if M-4 can possibly be restored to operation in the near future? Not for excursion trains, but for switching work around the yard.
@@DillianTrainzStudios M-4 is actually operational, and it is used for switching as well as work trains and whatnot.
@@BenBensonStudios Ohhh, I thought it wasn't operational.
LES GOOOO IT'S HERE
"Honestly quite a ripoff if you ask me. $30 for a 30 minute train ride? Hell naw!!!" AGREED Which is why I won't go to another dowt in Strasburg until they go back to full length to paradise
From what a Strasburg conductor told me, this is unfortunately how they're gonna be running Thomas for the foreseeable future.
Why did they decide to change from Paradise to Cherry Hill?
@@BenBensonStudios😢 damn I’m glad I visit thomas when the ride went to paradise
@@FrankStudiosOfficial Same here. I rode Thomas all the way to Paradise in 2022.
@@DillianTrainzStudios At first I thought it was a Mattel decision, but I ended up finding out it was Strasburg’s decision. They changed the length of the ride for logistical reasons and so that Thomas can have more time for photos at the station. While understandable, it’s still stupid and doesn’t make it any less of a ripoff.
Not at all realistic! did the owner of this layout come in contact with RACE CAR slot car friends? Never have I seen race trains..goofy
Magnificent catches of the train coming by and pass, I like it 5 stars. Thumbs up. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, you earned a new subscriber, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
It's close enough, and honestly it's just cool to see Mavis at all
Shortline railroads are underated ngl
Real
its nice seeing people run their trains at actually realistic speeds instead of like 3 times slower as it is so common for some reason
Which engine pulled the train that day?

BABE WAKE UP BEN BENSON STUDIOS HIT 1,000 SUBSKITTLES
Congrats! I hope to get there someday too.
did you just any% a song
Yeah you could say that lmao
Seeing the S.S. United States was always a joy any time I've gone to Philly over the years. Trips to IKEA for furniture shopping were naturally the best ones for this reason. In fact, as a kid, my grandfather (back when he could drive) actually drove us alongside the ship. Much like trains, you never can truly appreciate how massive oceanliners can be unless you seen one in-person and up close. It's disheartening seeing that this rusty yet magnificent ship is gonna be leaving soon. I was always hoping she'd get the Queen Mary/Queen Elizabeth 2 treatment and be restored as a floating hotel, but alas, that hasn't happened. Here's she doesn't meet the scrapper's torch and finds a new home.
Congrats on 1k!! (I was the 1000th sub)
