I Built a HUGE Lego Railway - Up Stairs & Underwater!

- I built a 100m Lego train track around my entire house and garden, including up the stairs, through a swimming pool, through a light tunnel, and through a rainforest dome.

Geodesic Dome Tutorial: • How to Build a Geodesi...
FAQs:
- Is there an unedited GoPro video of the train ride? Unfortunately not. I had to aim the GoPro slightly differently at different bits (such as angled left inside the rainforest dome), and occasionally edit it so I wouldn't be in the footage myself when I followed it around. Next time I'll invest in a 360 camera like many have requested and record a complete one!
- How did you do the TV thing? I used the game Planet Zoo to build the cliff / waterfall / trees / train track. This meant I had complete control over the camera angles. I connected my laptop to the TV with a HDMI cable to perfectly match the real and digital track up, and then experimented with the timing. This is possibly my favourite part of the video :)
- Where are the cats during the train ride? Asleep on the bed
- Is this video sponsored by Lego (or Flex Tape)? No!
I'm happy for you Chris. You acheived your dream, like I did. my dream was to have a Boeing 777 model and I acheived it last November and once again this January! I hope you will continue making videos as I spend much of my day watching them as they make my day better. I'd say my favourite are the cats videos.
i love your channel so much
you forgot one question!
why is your channel so good?
Thanks for doing this since i just remembered that I have a destroyed Lego set that i need to rebuild
I love planet zoo its a great game and the tv scene turned out so well!!
Everything about this is amazing
Yes, I’m finally kinda early
Absolutely
Thanks Tim!

And for tom
What about tom????
RIP Reggie thank you for the bridge❤
And tom
And also if you do don't use reggie or tom for likes
I found myself wishing I was riding inside the train as I was watching.
Same 😂
The English Kid has Imagination i tell you
That would be incredible!
Same here :D (imagine having trains in Southern US :(
I have a cube camera small enough to fit inside a lego train. Works well and actually is quite cheap. I use it for model railways.
People achieving their "silly" childhood dreams is honestly one of the purest things out there.
I myself was given this dream by The Wrong Trousers. I wonder if that how it was for Chris too.
My son absolutely loved this video. When I brush his hair he needs to be distracted so when I let him search for something to watch he came across your video. He loves trains and legos so this was perfect for him. He especially loved the jungle green house, the glow stick tunnel (which I loved too), and the underwater tunnels. He also says sorry about Reggie.
i love how much stuff you can do with Legos and you nailed it!
Hello!
Indeed! He is great with legos!

R.I.P. Reggie. Would’ve been cool to have one extra life to experience the train around the house.
Well hey obstacle 3 and 4 were enough 😂
Were you watching when he was still around because I was and got excited with the bridge
@@BuckandPapi why you laugh at dead cat
@@naner8256 I'm laughing at living cats. I loved Reggie.

“This is so sad bros”
I've just come back here after a couple of years to watch this again. I never get tired of watching any of Chris's videos. They are fun, creative and most of all adorable. Thankyou Chris, Danielle and the super fluff balls ❤from Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺
I’m also from brisbane
I loved when he said,”I might’ve gotten slightly carried away,”yet, there are a hundred boxes of train tracks! It was my favorite part. Only, how did you manage to get the train to show on the tv when it went behind it
Everybody talking about how amazing it looks, but nobody's talking about how much all that lego costs.
or how anyone can use the stairs now
@@ninjaturtle11754 you mean the entire house🤣😂
“It’s a work expense, I swear.”
Ngl he probably made 3000 from it
Thats cause he makes 10x that back on money from views, who cares about a few grand?
Obstacles number 3 and 4 are looking cute today ngl.

It’s 1:30 am and this 71 years old great grandma just found your video and I absolutely love this. I watched the train and the roller coaster videos. I had the best fun. Thank you for all your time in making your projects and for sharing them.
Tell this to your family love life no matter how long it is
The train effect on the TV looked soo cool!
yeah how did he do that

I’d just like to say a quick R.I.P to reggie. I bet he was a good boi.
Lets just give this guy a round of applause for his hard work to make sure we're happy
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Why isn’t this hearted
Seeing reggie and his bridge: its enough to make a grown man cry
And that's okay
And that just fine
And that's ok 🥲

I audibly gasped when the Golden Gate bridge was brought out, and damn near teared up. Rest in Peace Reggie, your legacy lives on 💜

It really warmed my heart that you put Reggie’s bridge to use again. Thank you.
This video was soooo much fun to make! What was your favourite part?!
You posting is always the best thing on youtube
The domino part was cool. It was at the perfect spot to add a bit of comedic relief.
I loved the rainbow area
The fact you built yourself out of LEGO!
The whole vid.
I'd just like to say a quick R.I.P. to Reggie. I bet he was a good boi.

That has nothing to do with this video but rip
Who’s Reggie

watched it again. and again. and again. still one of the best videos on this platform
Rest in Peace Reggie❤i feel you man I had a dog that died its hard
This is literally my childhood.

Nice layout!
1st reply, also pls notice me
This guy is everywhere if it’s a creative video idea.
Hey, thanks! Big fan
Totally!
Ur mum
I just really wanted to say this, but Chris you’ve inspired me so much to do the things I love and without you I wouldn’t have found my true talent in guitar, thank you so much.
My friend:i'm the best at making lego tracks!
Me: shows them this video
this is EXACTLY the kind of thing I would've dreamed of as a little kid
Ok
Me to and I’m still a kid Im still a kid in 2021 and I think I will be a adult in 3021
Don't worry I'll help
Soo very soon

I love how the screwing SFX was synced with the music
Love ur vids
Hello I love your visa lmao
Sun man
P2W = nerds
Ok
The Lego store loves this man.
it was like a never ending railway of fun ! i wish u can leave it like this for real.
The geodome was actually like I was transported into one of the disneyworld rides and the light tunnel was perfection itself ! The water tunnel and tv waterfall all masterpieces !
Imagine Chris would put a 360 cam on there and we could look around and see what the passengers would see.
Probably the only reason I'd consider buying a new VR set
The Insta360 would work, plus it’s lighter than a GoPro
Petition for him to do this
I have ligma
@@Monkeysage1 what's ligma?
This guy just got my childhood dream and made it a reality!
Nah, he got everyone's childhood dream*
Yeah
You wanna see your childhood dreams? Jangbricks Jang City

Totally!
Just admit it, we all wished to be in the train and also have something similar in our house
This reminds me of a dream where I kept a little Thomas the Tank Engine as a pet.
He rode along model tracks around my house, ate little coal pieces out of my hand and had fun teasing our cat.
My face hurts...because I was smiling the entire 12:32 of the video. Amazing job, Chris!
Thanks a ton! :)
Mostly the same but became sad when I heard about Reggie’s death

I love your channel so much! Genuinely one of my favourites on all of CZcams. Lego is a big live of mine too and although I don’t do it as much as I’d want to, watching this makes me feel like I am. My favourite bit was the tv! That was really cool!
Shark!! incredible work on a budget .... very nicely done, especially the tunnel and the TV illusion .... sure is nice to have a durable GoPro, too! LOL
I think Reggie would be honored to have a lego train track centered around his bridge
I think he would rather have a treat than have a Lego track named after him. You know, since cats aren’t really that intellect enough to fully understand humans (they understand emotions, but not speech)
@@jman7418 shut up
Yeah R.I.P Regg.
This literally was my childhood dream. I would always lay in bed wondering how cool it would be to have my own house with lego trains riding all around them.
But nowadays I realize how unachievable it is.
No its not unachivevable its you need to try more and not give up.
@@tarinacrowe5752 by that you mean "work hard for the money to sell out the market for lego train tracks and then spend over a day working on something you'll sadly have to take down after some time"
@@joelhoon1707 That’s called active self sabotage and creating excuses to demotivate yourself. If he really wanted to do it it could be done.
turns out that's where you're wrong...
