- We continue our "On The Scales: Weighing in with Model Railroaders" series with Season 1, Episode 4: Tin Plate Railroads. We're visiting with Chuck Brasher of Grass Valley and his magnificent O and standard gauge train collection. All of this collection is from the 1930s/40s era when model trains were still considered toys. Sit back, relax and be delighted.
Wow this layout is fantastic, I love hearing all the stories and history! I'm 22 and been model railroading my whole life and just recently got into o gauge and discovered prewar stuff, now im doing standard gauge and I'm loving every bit of it
OH Baby what a fine layout and collection! I can remember being 6 years old and viewing volume 2 of TM videos with my Granfather. I developed an affinity for standard gauge trains that is just as strong today as it was in 1992. Thank you Chuck for the memories and glad to see that the adaptation of your layout is more astounding now than it was before!
More running the trains and less talk sounds good in this scene!
I had been collecting O gauge since I was 10 years old. Then I saw the CTT magazine in spring of 1989 with Chuck on the cover. When I saw the brass #54 I just fell hard for Standard Gauge. Now as I approach my 60th birthday I now have both O and Standard Gauge layouts. Thank you Chuck. 🚂
Back in 1989 I bought my first Classic Toy Trains magazine and on that cover was Chuck’s Standard Gauge trains. Thank you Chuck for getting me started with Standard Gauge trains 😊 I have worn out that magazine. Now I have the video. Favorite is the #54 brass.
Had the pleasure of meeting Chuck & Susie at their house and seeing the layout 25 years ago. Thanks for sharing this, brings back great memories. Wonderful people and beautiful toy trains.
Hey Jeff, are you Realated to Dave Marchamt?

Back in 1980, I was watching this documentary on one of the public stations it was the company Buda Shoes, I think that the company was in India, and the program was interesting, the discount shoe store Pic way carried all kinds of their products, one of the company executives was Dave Marchant, that name just stuck in my head, he flew here to the states, and the camera crew followed him all around the country, and low and behold, the next scene he was visiting shoe stores talking to the customers, and he was here in bluefield at Pic way, this guy came half way around the world selling shoes.
Chuck is a legend.
Chuck Brasher has one of the finest collections of Standard Gauge Trains.
A wonderful collection, standard gauge is still alive and well today
Very nice. Less talk and more action would have been better.
