  • This G-scale garden railroad is owned and operated by the Medford Oregon Garden Railroaders at the Medford Oregon railroad park. this layout is massive and you cant really get a feel for how big it is unless you see it in person for yourself!

    I like your track brushing car. I made one out of a Bachmann passenger car truck and some wood with a metal housing over the motor and square brass tubing that held the brush and a dust guard. It also has a little elf on it working the control levers.

    Your CLUB IS FANTASTIC! Not only are you all expert Garden model builders, but your CAMERA SKILLS and FILMING is TOP NOTCH! YOUR FILMING blows away "nice, big garden layout" videos due to the fact that you close up on the fast-running steam and diesel, track side angles that really make me believe I am "track side" or running along the mainline trying to keep up with the passing Iron Horse! What an amazing set of girder, bridges, spans, rock work! Hey who built the amazing lift bridge in the freight harbor scene?!! You also highlight the best motive power and cars that start with the LGB Mogul in 1984 and modern USA diesels with piggy backs. I LOVE the scene where the IRON HORSE from LGB is passing the parallel track with the massive diesel train!! I know my brother and I who are slowly building a backyard railway, would love to visit this layout! just one word......WOW!!!

    OK, I saw a lot of closeups of engines running on track/ What does the layout look like? Why does everyone think there is nothing to video except close ups. I'm so tired of looking at closeups where you don't get any idea of the scope of the total project or even a realistic look at the scenery someone worked so hard to create, or in this case maintain.

      @QualityModelRailroad Před 6 lety +1

      Also you can see they use rail clamps. We use this in the backyard as well. I have worked with track with rail clamps (I remove the rail joiners first) and electrical problems are 98% gone once applied. The LGB track doesn't even need a whole lot of cleaning after rail clamps. Lots of battery runners have claimed the electrical running trains is too much a problem but I've noticed many of them don't clamp the track. You can have great electric powered trains in the garden with reliability, we run LGB MTS in the backyard for ten years already and rail clamps avoid dead tracks. If you have more than 200 feet of track, yes, a track cleaner from LGB would be a good investment. I clean our 250 feet by hand still. 30 minutes three times a month.

    • @Tank245
      @Tank245  Před 7 lety +2

      Jim Cannon ive noticed it depends on the engines. my LGB Mogul steam locomotives both are power hogs, so it takes a lot of power at low speeds. on my personal tracks i usually use very fine sand paper to clean the tops of the tracks and they work perfectly

    That is a very impressive garden layout. And quite a roster of trains.
    Is that track clearing device scratch built? It is a very clever solution.
    What is that engine at 7:56?
    At 8:21, you could be forgiven for thinking this was a real engine. :) A shame about the missing bell, though.
    If I had a couple minor gripes, I wish there could have been some wide shots to get a overall idea of the layout. And to spend more time on the individual trains, as some only got a few seconds. Though it would have made the video longer, I would not have minded, heh.

    • @Tank245
      @Tank245  Před 4 lety +1

      well This video is about 3 and a half years old lol. I wasn't the best at filming stuff back then. And I will never return to this place. Nothing against the garden railroaders there, but the "live steam" club as they call themselves (With no live steamers at all there anymore) were extremely disrespectful to myself and my Significant Other when we were "invited back" for their labor day potluck. I say "invited back" because me and all the other steam owners were run off with political bullshit. All they care about at that park is money, and nothing else. Only reason I didn't delete this video from all the others i took at that park is the view count and because it doesn't represent the live steam club.

      @@Tank245 I see, well that is fair enough. It's unfortunate. It seemed to me like model railroading was one of the few hobbies or fandoms with little to no jerks in it. Possibly because it's a naturally positive and creative hobby, and a niche one. Alienate people and you will have even less folks to share it with. The people I have run into have been nothing but nice, but I suppose there are always a few out there like this.

      @@Benjamin0119 it really just depends. Model railroading i haven't run into an issue, live steam i definitely have. Look at places like Riverside Live Steamers. They're a steam ONLY club. The guy i bought my 7.5" steamer from up in Canada straight quit the hobby because of toxic club politics because their club literally focused on making money and charged money for rides. So, it definitely exists but I've mainly seen it when it revolves around steam and money making.
