Turning a Steam Locomotive on the HO scale Colorado & Southern Ry - Ep 2
Vložit
- čas přidán 14. 08. 2024
- End-of-Steam locomotive servicing is featured at Denver's Rice Yard on the C&S Ry Northern Division HO scale model railroad. Engine number 6308 arrives at 5:23 am and needs to be serviced -- "turned" -- before it can depart with its next train. The Engine Foreman walks us through the action as he readies the 2-10-2 steamer for train No. 41, departing at 9:20 am.
See how animation and sound effects make the Engine Foreman job popular with regular operating crews. Action includes the animated coaling station from the July 2004 issue of Model Railroader magazine.

Super. Hello from the Tracy Mountain Railway in Colorado. 💙 T.E.N.
Thanks for coming!
Excellent camera placement. Obviously a lot of thought and planning went into visualizing this outstanding presentation. I like how you introduced the yard paperwork into the proceedings, a nice touch of realism. Very enjoyable and satisfying to watch and hear
Thank you David!
This is fantastic. I use videos like this one to help with calming down anxiety and easing depression. Thank you gentlemen for sharing this.
Thank you -- glad you enjoyed it!
Bless the algorithm, this is the best channel to hit my recommendations in a hot minute. I can't think of any other model railroading videos that are this immersive and well-directed!
From your pen to the algorithms eye (ear?). Thank you!
Very well done video and I agree with everything you said about the locomotive and other subjects.
I had the Bachmann J3 on pre-order for around a year and a half and when it finally arrived I was hoping it would look good and work well. As a New York Central fan who considers the NYC Hudson the most well proportioned, and beautiful steam locomotes ever built I couldn't be happier with the model. As demonstrated in this video it is a real puller with sufficient detail to satisfy most modelers and great sound. Bachmann outdid themselves with the J3, and I hope all their future steam releases will measure up to this one.
Thank you Larry!
Thoroughly enjoyed the enactment of turning and prepping the loco for return service. Great job.
Thanks -- glad you enjoyed it!
This is like museum quality. Feels like it's witnessing living history.
Nicely done. Having been born and raised in Denver and a frequent visitor to Rice Yard and 7th St Roundhouse and shops during the later steam era, it was very refreshing to see an excellent model work that for some of us, brings back great memories of when that area was a real railroad. It was very interesting to have seen most of what was there at the time and those experiences have not been forgotten. Thanks for the memories!
Thank you! I was not in Denver in 1958, but I'm very happy to hear that the modeling rings true to you. That's the ultimate compliment for an eyewitness to offer.
My thanks go to all those that were here back then -- and photographed and filmed what they saw. And to the publishers and museums that have made that information available.
Great illumination of the firebox
Thanks Bob. That is a favorite effect, even better during night running.
Awesome footage and production value, keep it coming!
Thank you -- will do!
Nice rendition of a bygone era. Thank you.
Thank you for watching!
Really outstanding presentation! The videography is first rate, and the scenery and trackwork are impressive. Thanks for taking the time and effort to share this tidbit of historic C&S steam operations with us. It was very enjoyable. Bear Owen, Broomfield, CO, where the C&S is still alive and well.
Thank you Bear. Look for your hometown in a future video!
Very nice work.
Thank you very much!
Outstanding!
Glad you like it!
Im a soldier in 3ID and immediately recognized the intro song lol
Yep, that's the lead into the official Army song. I chose it for its "get up and go" feeling, just what a CZcams video intro needs!
And thank you for all that *you* do everyday!
Absolute masterpiece 👏
Thank you Nathaniel!
Looks like a lot of fun LOL.
Thanks -- it is!
Really Enjoyed this, very well done!
Thanks Steve!
I love the way you guys filmed this! Makes it so fun!
Thank you! We had fun making it too.
@@CSRYfan Should have more vids made! Will definitely be following now!
We have some ideas in the works...
@@CSRYfan Hopefully we can see what a Switcher of a small industry or yard is like on this layout.
Bellissimo!!!!👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you!
Great video!
Thank you!
Wonderful video. Can we get an overhead view layout tour?? Would love to see everything
Thank you Jeffrey.
You can do a "cab ride" along the entire main line in the other video on this channel. You can also visit the website in the banner for a layout overview, track plan, and more.
What brand are those model trains I NEED TO KNOW!!!!!
Engine 6308 is a Proto-2000 brand model. I'm glad you enjoyed the show!
Wonder if the rear end crew on the departing train got a whiff of whatever the dbl-deck stock car next to the waycar was giving off...............
Probably couldn't avoid it...
Excellent video work. What is the make of the locomotive and sound dcc system of the 6308?
Glad you liked the show. That's a Proto 2000 locomotive with a SoundTraxx Tsunami Heavy Steam decoder. I believe it's programmed with the Frisco #1522 "steamboat" whistle.
@@CSRYfan thank you! Followed and hope to see more videos on your channel soon! Was very interesting.
More videos please!
Thank you for your enthusiasm and encouragement!
now you give me a reason to dust off my Cheyenne yard & operate it
I'm glad you enjoyed the show!
Thomas81Z, I went to your channel to see Cheyenne yard. I would love to see what you have done as I am a huge fan of the UP and Cheyenne yard. Please let me know if you dust it off and want to share it.
Tender got water twice? Once going in and again heading out?
Yep. No telling how long the engine would be simmering in the roundhouse in case they found something wrong. It was easier to fill it from the water spout. And if the turnaround was quick, the fill was shorter for outbound servicing.
@@CSRYfan thats what i figured
I was curious about that too.
what type of camera were you using for those ground level shots inside the building?
That's a DJI Pocket 2, with Creator Combo. Fits nicely on HO scale flatcars, and connects via WIFI with your smartphone so you can see what the camera sees. I use it for all of the "cab ride" views.
@@CSRYfan really? Sounds like it be great for live streaming to youtube or other platforms! Can you sync it with an app on your computer to get a live video feed?
Don't think so. The camera only connects to the DJI app on the smartphone, as far as I know.
@@CSRYfan dang.. that's still really cool tho. Thank you so much for letting me know. You're videos are top tier btw just found your channel and very glad that I did.
Thanks!
Is the rice yard coaling tower built from drawings or just guesstimated? I've wanted to build a model of it for a while and was wondering if drawings may be available somewhere
The RY Coaling Tower was guestimated from photos, on-site foundation measurements, and an 8x11" 1948 C&S Ry drawing of basic measurements I found at the Colorado RR Museum. My July 2004 Model Railroader article describes how I built the animated model, and includes the scale drawings I created.
This iconic structure is in a ton of locomotive photos from the 1950s, so no depiction of Rice Yard is complete without it. It was well worth the effort!
@@CSRYfan awesome! July 2004, gonna have to pick that one up. I've always been more of a UP guy and I'm still learning all the sources for Q/C&S reference material. I have a 902 just begging to be photographed and this scene seemed perfect. photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-mKp9JS3/3/O/i-mKp9JS3.jpg
Yep, that's a famous (among C&S fans) photo by M. C. Trent. No. 902 is under the coaling tower on the night of November 21, 1958. This photo was used on the album cover of "All Steamed Up".
