This week, I built a train. It may look like a standard 1800s steam engine, because it is. It definitely exists in the Wild Imaginary West, though! There is a growing tension between the established and influential railroad and the cowboys and outlaws that use this mysterious new technology to, in the words of one famous rail tycoon, "…fuel their abominable walking machines and criminal mischief."
This conflict will play out further in the story to come.

I know the train is missing a crew. I apologize. I will add them later on. Imagine they are ducking down and hiding or from the robbers. :)
I didn’t have train crew figures on hand in 1:72 scale, which is another great reason to sign up for Model Creator. When I can easily customize and print a train crew from home, I will never have that problem again!
I actually need a little guy…. Did you post a link to Model Creator? If so I can’t find it…
Thank you for the amazing video. You have greantly inspired me to make imaginary wild west dioramas myself. I can't thank you enough for all the amazing videos you have. Also thank you for explaining why people use IPA when using glue, that always confused me :)
My comment was going to begin, "Not to be nitpicky, ...". 😁 I was imigining them ducking, or wondering if the trains had become automated. I was thinking that just because they don't like electricity, they don't necessarily dislike automation.
If you are going to add to it anyway, I would add something across the tracks too that the robbers laid down. They would have put something down to stop the train otherwise it would just blow past them.
Would be cool to add bullet damage to the train!
I just never get tired of this wild west theme. So many great builds, and so thrilled to see your channel continue to grow in leaps and bounds. Build on my friend!
Love your work too my Fellow Star Wars Nerdz 😂
Yehaw partner
Ya
Yes I love the west builds
The dry humor and the great dioramas is what makes this channel the best hobby channel on youtube
I could watch you build your imaginary wild west for hours on end. I honestly thought you were going to kit bash an existing train model and then I was like of course he's building it from scratch! The canyon wall looks great!
Your imaginary west would make a fun RPG.
Basically just Fallout
Dear Mr. Boylei. I discovered your channel when my daughter was born in september 2020. She had a difficult birth and some very difficult first days and weeks. There must have been something with your calming voice, but she always slept beautifully on my arm watching your episodes. And I had some precious minutes of peace. She is now 16 months old and we are still watching every episode together. I think this will be one of those small things I won't ever forget, that sleeping worm on my arms while somebody glues Star Wars dioramas. Thanks for the awesome videos and greeting from Belgium.
That's a great story, man! Moments like that stay with you forever, so best wishes to you and your daughter, and I hope he sees this post
Glad to hear she's doing well man. Best of luck to you and yours!
I absolutely love this entire series. I've come back to look at many of the videos. I'm just totally blown away by all the different things you're able to do. Stay safe, and thank you!
wild imaginary west is literally my favorite series on youtube. ill never get tired of these builds
Love how you build your own train out of scarps and extra parts, you are a genius. I called it Good.
Train robbery?! That has to be my favorite Wild West theme. Love train fights
Excellent job as usual Boylei, I think to further flesh out this conflict you should consider making some sort of western power plant. That would explain the source of electricity. Maybe it could be some form of hydro electric power generation.
A hydroelectric dam--or part of obe--under attack would be a cool diorama.
Wow didn't realize you scratch built the train. Assumed you used a kit for it. Fantastic!
Thank you. I've been requesting a Steampunk Train for your Wild Imaginary West series for about a year or so, and what you made (and how you made it) was well-worth the wait!
That tension between Steam and Electricity sounds like a variation of the feud between sheep herders and cattlemen in the actual history of the West. (Spoiler alert: the cattlemen won.) I suspect that the backstory in your Wild Imaginary West would boil down to a competitive battle between the coal industry and whatever alternate source is being used to generate the electricity and/or the producers of the high efficiency batteries that makes electricity a viable option to steam. In any case, I can't wait to hear (and see) more!
Thanks for posting this, (and for putting up with my chronic requests, that will officially end here and now.)
I have also been requesting a steampunk-style (hover train anyone?), for awhile now.
While this train build is awesome, I am still bummed that there isn't anything hovering or flying in this diorama. Not to say I disappointed with this video, not in the least. He scratchbuilt a steampowered train for crying out loud! 😳
Hopefully he will be doing a dirigible or a steampowered flying machine somewhere down the line.
@@earlware4322 technically he's only built a locomotive. A train is a locomotive pulling rolling stock. Which is a really impressive thing still, a very impressive locomotive and brilliant diorama.
I've been requesting a Train Robbery for a while too; its great to see it come to life, so to speak
I think its important to point out that with the exception of wind, water, and solar powerplants; even today, all powerplants use Steam Power to convert the fuel sorce - weather it be coal, gas, oil or even Nuclear, to rotational energy to turn their turbines. I dont really see there being a battle between steam and electricity, as Electricity NEEDS steam power to function on a large scale
The cool kids spray isopropyl alcohol 😂 This has such an epic look to it! It’s a rare thing to see a true kitbash look like a high quality factory built model. So awesome!!
The cool kids use it; the bad kids chug it. 😋 (Public Health Notice: Do no sip, chug or quaff iso).
I love the way the train turned out. Super creative use of spare stuff just laying around
Your creativity seems limitless. Your videos are short and sweet. Awesome job.
I was honestly expecting you to use any old 1800's locomotive from Tyco or Bachmann and make modifications to those so they fit in with your world
I'm pleasantly surprised to see you make one from scratch.
I have to say I have become absolutely addicted to this alternative history project! I am curious to see what effect, if any, the combination of technology and monsters had on the Civil War. Keep up the great work!
here I am thinking "sick another awesome wild imaginary west vid cant wait to see what he does with a train kit" but no he just goes and makes a bloody train out a bunch of random shit, love it
Hey we really would love to see another underwater monster diorama of some kind !
You should make a wild imaginary west gun and weapon store, that would be pretty cool. Great vid👍
This was awesome! The smoke looks really great, and the details on that train are just great. I agree, I think the contrast is really nice with your other builds for this world. Can't wait for the next!
I'm so happy there's a new Wild Imaginary West! I'm so sorry there are no new monsters! Great video, as always!!!
The loco is the monster in this one!
I can imagine the train zooming around intricate tunnels through a canyon trying to get it's cargo delivered, so sick.
The train has no driver, it's out of control! apart from that, loving these WIW dioramas
WILD WEST WORLD! Whoop! And a TRAIN!!! Love it!
AND a full layout coming!??? Let's go!
Tour videos are just so satisfying to watch!
Autonomous steam train technology, what a time to be alive!
My face Grench-stretched at "time to start making the train." So frikn cool.
You scratch built a steam locomotive, didn't see that coming and was amazed at the results!! Bravo and Well Done!!
The isopropyl alcohol joke got me, very funny. Great work as always!
Two issues with this build (which otherwise is great, especially the train). First, who drives the train?! And second is that there's no blockade that would make the train stop.
Yea, i was going to put it, there is no machinist
Well if the train was in a thight curve section of the Railroad you can imagine it wasn't going fast
Yuuuussss Imaginary Wild West train!!! Dang that smoke looks spot on 😮
This series is great. Would have been Ace if there was a light in the train.
Awesome build series and setting that you are developing. Especially love the amazing kit bashing for really cool custom models.
Train needs some crew if any figures will fit in the cab.
i love seeing this world come together
Fantastic rock design love the results you get with a hot knife. The train 🚂 if you ask 100 people 98 of them would say it was store bought amazing work!
it feels like I have been waiting for the next wild imaginary west for so long
Really living for this wild imaginary west world
Truly superb! Wonderful scenery, love the rocks, loco...and smoke!👍👍
I used to be a team lead in the toy industry and my people were pretty awesome - but your level of combining model building with story-telling is absolutely exceptional!
I love your Diorama and I'm super excited for upcoming projects.
I'm so addicted to your channel that I've wstched everything and now I'm watching everything again a second time!!
This imaginary sci-fi west gives me such Firefly vibes each time. Great project.
Stunning as always. Love watching this world come together!
I want to see the “Electric followers” train! I can’t see the Train Engineer, guess he’s hiding. Nice build. I hope the Spiders stay out of those Tunnels! Carry on!
Great diorama, just one nit. There's needs to be a couple of boulders or large logs on the tracks to slow the train down. Otherwise the engineer will just slam the throttle forward and zip right by the Train Robbers. 😁👍
Well, when you said "...help them get off the ground...", I kind of thought at first it may have been a reference to the flying train from a certain time travel movie. Kit bashing is cool.
Really love your Wild West videos!
I thought for sure that you had brought that train model. To see you make it from scratch was really impressive. Its a shame that the wheels are not on the track though
Oooh that teaser… are we getting a Wild Imaginary West? Now that would be awesome
The diorama, like all of your work, is great - but I have to say that the creation of the train is absolutely outstanding!
When I was in school, they used to assign dioramas for projects, and say, "you can't just buy everything and make it, you'll have to be creative." I used to go way o erboard with those directions and find that I was taking it too literally, and I had tried to create way too much from bits and pieces, where some of the components, were just ok to buy and glue. Even though I put more work and imagination into it than I had to, I'm glad I did, especially watching your videos. Seeing that there is a really clear niche for this type of hobby only inspires me more to pique my imagination.
Love how you say: I called it good.
So inspiring! I started calling my stuff good too.
I like all the details you put into your diorama.
I like how the train is recognizable as a train from that era from a distance, but is obviously a fictional one up close, that is a hard thing to pull off correctly
This is awesome. I can't wait for 1 and half years from now when you have a whole small town bulit
Hoping for a monster in this diorama-again no monster! Nice build!
Very nice build. the locomotive turns out great. The steam locomotive needs a crew! No robbery without victims.
I love your Imaginary West series.
Love your creations! But how fast can a train without a driver go? Seems like you forgot the engineman
Maybe they're automated?
He was there when he entered the tunnel, but never came out on the other end :D
I was going to say the same thing about not having an engineer then I realised those guys weren’t robbing the train they were trying to stop it 😱 it makes much more sense that the train is running away and a posse have been tasked with bringing it to a halt. 😎
The Great Ghost Train Robbery !
That's a nice looking diorama, As a N scale train enthusiast I commend you on your art work making it so realistic.
I actually take your Wild Imaginary West Idea to finally write my own alternative universum and beginn to build some dioramas. So thank you very much for the motivation! Keep up this awesome work!
Absolutely amazing!
That steam engine is A M A Z I N G for being made of random parts!
I'm a real big fan of this imaginary wild west and looking super forward to more train.
I love love love when you post videos of your Wild Imaginary West.
So happy new wild west episodes are back!
The Weird West setting you got going reminds me a lot of Malifaux (which is more imaginary Appalachia\ Magic Gold Rush fantasy setting than the SciFi creations you've made so far) and you have such a creative flair that would complement that setting as well as your own.
I would recommend reading the "History" of Malifaux to get lore inspiration, unless you want to keep your external influences to a minimum - I do like the Aesthetic of your models as they are already.
[Edit: oops, I missed your Bison Monster video, and I just remembered the Lake Terrors you've created. Yeah, you'd feel right at home in Malifaux.
The "not really sure what it does..." line got me... I was like "whuuut?" LOL
I absolutely love your wild west builds, keep them coming!
Two of my favourite topics - western and sci-fi - in one project. Consider me tickled.
a whole train set🤯 looks like a series is coming our way👍
Honestly, you should pitch your world as a video game idea. Your world is so incredibly detailed that anybody willing to play the game can show you how much they enjoy watching and playing in your world
The world is amazing but you kind of need, you know, a plot? Mechanics? Etc
The imaginary wild west is such a cool scene and every time a new video comes up it makes my days so much brighter. Your work is incredible and is such a positive influence on me
God damn yes, I live for these weird west dioramas.
Great job as always, but that locomotive is AMAZING!
Love it! That scratch built engine looks fantastic! I really like your Wild West series. Especially since they have a sci-fi theme to them. Thanks for sharing, have a great day! Model on!
I’m obsessed with this monster hunter steampunk Wild West setting, it would honestly work perfectly for a video game
I love the way your dioramas jump into life with the painting of the terrain and vehicles. So cool
I love the way your mind works. The dark humour gets me everytime! Imaginitive stuff!
Incredible job. I love all the detail with the rock face and colors of the train.
The details look incredible. They almost look so real.
That short triumphant bit at the end is really neat. Thanks for making this nice video
This is awesome. I also love how the robbers are inadvertently pointing their rifles at each other. Botched job waiting to happen.
I’m doing a school project and having you explain all everything about terrain is so helpful thank you so much and love the western builds my favorite are the ones with animals or beast
This kitbash train is next next next level. Very impressive!
Love the Wild Wild West theme. The Train robbery can take on so many formats hey? One day I'd like to do one with the actual railroad tracks blown up or sabotaged to force the train to stop. Keep up the great work on this Wild West universe.
Yes! I was wondering when you'd add a train to the series... classic Western!
your attention to detail is astonishing. I saw very few mistakes. It's amazing how you can put so much detail into such a small piece of work.
Excellent! Thanks for sharing!
Very cool with the scratch/kit bashed(not sure if this would be the correct way to describe it) train, I love it.
I love it and I'm excited for more to come....I'll be honest and say, I was hoping for a bat-like creature in the tunnel or the hold up crew having a massive monster harnessed to help stop the train...
That’s awesome I love old trains like that
love the wild west builds! definitely my favorite!
Love all these! Cannot get enough of this series!
Conflict between the land owners and the railroad?
I hate to say this, but that was a very real thing in the American west.
Very nice, there is only no one driving the train
Loving these Wild Imaginary West vids.
I like the darkening you did of the tunnel too!
