MODEL CARNIVAL DISPLAY 1

- This is a day time video of my HO Scale Model Carnival display I built. The display is 8' X 8' with about 60 to 70 moving models and numerous game, food, and backend joints. Also there are transport trailers for the rides, bunk house trailers for the workers, generator trailers with light towers on top, semi tractors, racked rides, custom show offices and custom living quarters for the show owners, all on the display. I used 4 MP3 players with speakers with different carnival sounds recorded live back in the 50's from the midway of one of the grand traveing carnivals of all time, Royal American Shows. I also have a custom contoller to operate all the functions of the display. The contols are built into a custom made wagon made to look like one of the old Show trailers that was loaded on a flat cars when many carnivals traveled by train. The lighting is mostly 12 V grain of wheat lights (clear, green, yellow, red & blue) along with custom EL lighting and special LED lighting.

Fabulous lookking fair
Impressive layout! My favorite ride out of all of them is the Sky Diver.
@4:27 The Cobra loved that ride!!
WOW. I Love it. My favorite is the Roco Plane ride. I never saw that in a small model.
This is so amazing! I want to walk through there and go on the rides! 😊🎡🎢🎪🎠
Wow! What a great show.....
That is just straight up awesome!
Mr. Lynch Thank you! It’s a labor of love!
That is impressive to say the least! You have an amazing talent!
That's really cool
That’s pretty cool! Love it!
Michael Mackenzie Thank you!
WOW THIS IS AMAZING
Thank you!
I can smell the popcorn!
Jimmie at Stuart Arts 😀
Nice job!
your display is so inspiring and it's so amazing, at the first i thought it was real but it wasn't cause the truth is it's just a model display,,wow so impressive!!
Ian Gabriel Acibar Thank you! That's so very kind of you. It's a labor of love & a hobby I really enjoy.
I love it! I wish I wanted a display.
Those traveling carnivals that come to the communities and have all those rides and amusements I don't think there wasn't a single ride from popular carnivals not in there!!
Very Impressive!
Thank you!
Brilliant.
Danny Malboeuf Thank you!
I can only imagine the hours of work that went into this display. Quite obvious that it's a labour of love. Might I ask where you purchased the Zipper model?
Danny Malboeuf Yes, many hours but it was indeed "a labor of love." Cummons Scale Amusements. You can find them on line.
I'm speech less this is amazing
electric viper Thank you!
Amazing!
Thank you!
@@skywheel52 is this HO scale? We have G scale trains. My son is 6 and we recently bought him a circus train and we've been adding to it. We currently use fisher price carnival/circus toys, however I would like to start purchasing more realistic pieces for his layout once we set up our garage as his train room. Ive been looking at Lemax but I think it is O scale. I am new to this.

As a guy who grew up having to make his amusement ride models out of Tinkertoys,, this is completely awesome. A Hrubetz Meteor?! I haven't seen one of those, real or otherwise, since the early 80's. Thanks for this! :D
Wow , Very Impressive , all you need is the cotton candy and junk food ....
They are there to, look down the walkways.

Would love to see this at the Worldwide Circus Summit 2015!
i like it rember me from that oddisy stream
Amazing model but you need alot more people on the walking path. Lines in front of rides just a huge mess of people like a real carnival.
Hi Skywheel, I have two things, 1 is rah models portable? 2 And I really lovvve your vids.
Port hope Fall Fair Set up 1. Yes, RAH models are portable models. You can fully build them as a ride model or you can rack them (trailer load). 2. And thank you very much. I enjoy sharing something I love to do.
@@skywheel52 Do you have a link to buy RAH models? I can't seem.to find them on the net as well as Raynauld's
I love your carnival layout. How many individual rides do you have?
How many rides are there?
There's like 5 ferris wheels xD
amazing
Thank you!

Where can you buy Renauld's Midway Miniatures products? And are they even still available?
This is just like the State Fairs I used to attend. It brings back wonderful memories. Where does the chairlift model come from at the beginning of the video? Thanks for posting your display.
you can look up the rock o plane,
but dont go up in the rock o plane!
That was amazing! Though I would like to ask something. Where did you get the tilt a whirl and scrambler/sizzler rides?
I love all of the rides in this video, but how come that wave swinger/wellenflug isn't going? that is my favorite one, plus I love those kiddie rides :-) :-)
m
I have a separate switch for the Wave Swinger & three other models. I didn't have that switch on.
Oh
Very impressive! Was wondering where you purchased your ferries wheel at about 2:51 on the timer? I've been looking for Eli ferries wheels for Ho scale but no luck. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
I believe the FW you're asking about is a kit bash & custom build. Part of the model, the rim is from an FW IHC kit. The rest is a custom build I did.
I'm starting to collect rides and things for my own carnival display. where do you get yours from as I havn't been able to find these of this quality?
From Ebay and Walthers
I get a lot of my kits from IHC, FALLER, RAH & CUMMONS SCALE AMUSEMENTS, & other model kit builders. Some kits & models are custom built.
At 2:50 I noticed you have the Cobra ride Is it a kit or scratch built?, as a kid I always enjoyed that ride as well as Gravitron, Zipper, Scrambler and Super Loops, I'd be interested to know if you were to ever find those rides again or build them would you be able to make those for me and I could give my email address and I'll pay for them too :)
You have an amazing display of all the great rides, excellent work and very impressive too :)
@@ProDJ1980 u can get those through don cummons. It’s a long waiting list and run about 500/600 per ride.
did u buy and assemble them, if so where amazing 5stars
vegasdavetv There is an assortment of models that were in different stages when I got them. Some were finished models, some were partially built & I completed them, some were fabricated & I assembled them & did the paint schemes, some were kits I built, kit bashed, & some were scratch built. I did a good bit of the paint schemes. The support trucks & trailers I painted & did the graphics in water slide decals or on photo paper that I cut out & used a glue stick to attach. I did all the grass, walkways, shrubs & trees.
Wow this is awsome. You are very talented. Where can one order these from. I am from South Africa.
Hey, where are the airplane and flying elephant rides and the adult and kiddie parachute towers?
They may come later. It's always a work in progress.
How did you acquire that HUSS Enterprise model? It's made by a German fellow who wouldn't sell to the USA or so I thought.
I got the kit from RAH Models & then had to do a lot of custom build. A friend of mine actually customized it for me. We swapped out some model work.
Are you a member of the Circus Model Builders club? You have one heck of a display. I started building my carnival display last year. I am a fan of the circus and carnival sideshows. I noticed that you have quite a few in your display. I am curious if you could take a picture of them so I can see the show fronts in better detail? What state do you live in? If you would like I can give you my email and we can talk more.
No I'm not a member, but I've been to there shows. I was a member of the Model Carnival builders & we would have our show at the same time. I'm in AL
83hawk Hi, no I’m not a part of the Circus Builders Club, although I am familiar with them. Use to be a member of the Model Carnival Builders. Now I’m a part of a group on FB. Here’s the link: facebook.com/groups/432803790224442/
I’ll be glad to make some photos. I may already have some pics. I’ll have to check.
I'm obsessed with the ring of fire ride where can I buy it?
From Cummons Scale Amusements or you can get a static model from RAH Models.
do you have scheme or videos about the motorized? Do you have some of this rides to sale? Thank you
I do build models for sale. I'm currently not taking orders but when I do I'll be glad to let you know.
@@skywheel52 I would like to know if you could build O scale models like for the Lionel train size? Or if you know someone who could? Cummons only does HO.
How did you get the screaming sound effects?
Scott Knudson I found an old record 33 1/3 album of a carnival midway & all the sounds from the 1950’s. I had the record played & as it played it was dumped into a video/audio computer and had it digitally recorded. Then I put the recording on several small MP3 players that were spread around my display with different sound tracks playing.
Is the zipper a kit or scratch built?
Cameron Steiner No, the Zipper is a custom build, a Cummons Scale Amusements.
where did you get the skydiver and the zipper?????????? by the way are you in germany?
Many of these rides appear to be from Cummons Scale Amusements in Michigan USA. The Skydiver and Zipper in this video appear to be theirs although they discontinued the Skydiver. Another company RAH Models in Minnesota sells kits you can put together of both the Skydiver and Zipper, but they will need extra work to make them run as they do not come with motors.
I'm in AL
Yur missing one thing whre are the sideshows
Joseph Neisser Joseph Neisser The side shows are there. One is around the 1:30 mark of the video. Look to the far right of the video & you’ll see it. As the video moves along you’ll notice the sideshow is on the other side of the bumper cars. The other two side shows are around the 3:01 mark of the video.
I stand corrected were ever on the fair circuit i was last person i worked for was dean Potter circus of the fantastics and the first show was shaw&sons amusements
Where do you get them
FALLER, RAH, CUMMONS SCALE AMUSEMENTS, IHC, RENAULD'S MIDWAY MINIATURES & some are custom builds.
Do you sell any display?
Dewayne Jay No, I don’t sell displays. I use to sell some carnival models. But my current schedule is to busy to allow me to build models for sale.
how much does it cost
They very in price. Any where from $10 to $700
skywheel52 I'd like to take the sea Ray, Sky wheels and.......That 1001 Nachts rides lol
too many ferris wheels but lucky
Thanks
skywheel52 your welcome😱😭😀

They are moving too fast. Not natural speed in real life.
Thanks for pointing that out.
Aperson could put in some different gears to slow it down. But not that easy or cheap.
Cheap sure from ebay but takes skill I have done it
