House With Scale Steam Train - New Footage
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 05. 2016
- Newer footage of the live steam railroad my dad built that circles his property. Since the old footage, much of the train has been completely rebuilt, and there are a couple completely new cars. My brother is the engineer in all these shots.
"I don't like this modern world too much, I'm very displaced in it." Yes, me too.
Yeah, nothing but fads and gimmicks. Everything is disappointing low quality ripoff shit. Computers (that includes tablets and phone) are built like crap now with manufacturers always trying to lock them down and push anti consumer practices. They can all go to hell.
Very true
how do you make these
At 63 yrs old..........................
That hit me like a Brick !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Always felt (Known)...........
I was born 40 yrs to late !!!!!!!!!!
What did I stumble on to? What a great little video. Love it
Gotta love the no diesel sign
Yes, I do! :-)
Wait why
Love the way the children come out of the 'woodwork' when the train stops.
Gotta make a break for it while the bull's distracted!
Love it wish you were my neighbor we could expand the line on 5 acres I have similar feelings as the guy speaking about this world Great job
Excellent video! I was in Casper last month and I met your dad on May 29th. He's really cool and an excellent machinist. His trains are awesome! I can't wait to see the new locomotive when it's finished.
Great Video! I grew up driving past this Railroad every single day and it would always be the highlight of my trip home from school.
He said, iam in my own little world, I kinda like it that way. For a scratchbuilt railroad this is the finest one to date.
This is a beautiful railroad, and I love your detailed equipment. Also loved to see the children erupting from various cars as the train stopped. I have a 7 1/2" gauge, 2 1/2" scale RR in my yard too, so know how much work is involved. My rolling stock is nowhere near as detailed as yours, tho'. Thanks for sharing this video.
What a thing of beauty! Everything, the engine, the freight & passenger cars, the water tank, each piece is a beautiful work of art. Your work should be designated as a National Treasure!
Great small layout! I love that it is in a neighborhood and runs right across the driveway and front walk! So awesome to share steam engines with the world!
I was at your Dad's one time years ago, when I was working the East Pool out of Greybull. He fired up the engine and after a couple laps around the house, the Piston came loose on the rod, and it came to a screeching halt. That was the end of that day's running. I have been retired for 12 years, and I haven't seen your dad in probably 15 or 16 years. I'm so glad he's still doing this!!! He's one fine machinist for sure!!!!! Lots of fun to work with too!!!! I have a model RR friend in Casper that is modeling the Q back in the steam era, and I have been trying to find out how to get in touch with your dad. This friend has a million questions about the old Q back in the days of steam. I know your dad has a mountain of information that would really help my friend. I don't know how to go about finding your dad. Is there any way you can help me?? Thanks!!!! Love the video by the way!!!!!
If your friend in Casper knows where the train house is, he's definitely more than welcome to stop by basically any time. Dad is retired and spends most of his time out in his shop, he'll be out there with the doors open most days, always accepting guests. Let me know if that doesn't work and maybe we can arrange something else.
@@biruboto Thanks so much for your reply!!! I knew your Dad was retired, and I'm glad he is enjoying retirement, as I am as well!!! My friend, nor I know where your Dad lives. I was only there the one time, and can't remember how to get there. I would enjoy seeing your Dad again sometime. I ALWAYS enjoyed his stories and his antics. I was coming into Casper one morning, and your Dad called and asked me what my power was like. My response was It's like an 0-1-0. There was a pause and then a belly laugh from him. He knew what I was referring to. Not real good power.
Your Dad was at my house one time when he was working the Casper/Greybull Pool, and I had a yard built in HO, and we could kick cars. He thought that was the coolest thing he had ever seen. He might or might not remember that.
If there is some way to let me know how my friend can find your Dad, without telling everyone in the world, I would really like my friend to meet your Dad. I'm sure your Dad still has a fantastic memory of the "Q" and of course steam. And when I come to Casper, hopefully next month, I would love to stop in and see your Dad again. Tell him I say HI!!! Thanks again!!!!
Dave
@@biruboto My friend in Casper just told me he found out where your Dad's place is, so I'm glad about that. Now I know too, so hopefully if I can make it to Casper at the end of the month, I can stop in and see him. Thanks Much!!!! Have a good one!!!
@@dmcry600 Oh hey sorry about the late response. I talked to him on the phone about it, he'll be glad to entertain any guests/questions.
@@biruboto Fantastic. THANKS MUCH!!!
Kids crawling out !.....HAAAAAA!!!!! Blow down hand & face wash!!....Excellent!!
Your family will be legendary forever in your town. WONDERFUL !!!
Screw the neighbors ! :) Mr. Biruboto, this is a true work of art. The workmanship is inspiring. Congratulations !!!
Great looking locomotive and rolling stock................your dad is a master machinist!! I couldn't agree more that you have to have something to look forward to every day and this would really do it for a lot of people. This is a beautiful set-up and it's obvious that it is a labor of love. Very impressive and a great story. Thanks so much for sharing!! Mike
He said he is displeased at the modern world!! I feel as a human it's only natural to be displeased....that's how we continue to improve ourselves and what's around us!
Terrific short film!
Absolutely Amazing!!!
Tell your dad that this is so amazing for what he can do and thanks to you for showing the world the inspirational side of Modern society
Would love to see more new footage! I've watched to old footage many, many times. I lol when the kids came out of the inside of the cars. What fun they must have to crawl inside and take a ride!
I unfortunately haven't lived there for over a decade so I don't have any way of getting new footage. You might have to go visit 😁
Chuck! How ya doin buddy? Hope retirement is treating ya well. I've known this guy and been around this steam engine since I was a kid. We used to put it on a float for Cheyenne frontier days thru rain, sleet and snow. Finally won best float in parade after 6-7 years. Man time flies by. And now 23 years later I'm still pulling throttle on the real thing. But between you and my dad you guys "stoked" my interest in railroading to the point I made a career out of it. Chucks favorite quote "STEEEAM"
Good to hear from you Tom. Those were fun days. Glad you are railroading.
4:05 aww the kids are playing hobos 😊
BPJ John lmfao i died when i read this 😂
LOL im dieing whatching this
😁
Sneaking in while no one is looking. Just make sure the conductor (dad) doesn't catch em or he'll beat their asses red just like in the steam days.
biruboto, I agree with everthing you say regarding the modern world, wish you were my neighbor, keep on railroading...Cheer Bri
That train is beautiful!
5:18 I like how he is washing his face with the water from the steam.
Way to go Bill good job. On the new video looks great . New train looks good can't wait to see the new engine run!!
I bet you a pound to a penny he's one heck of a good ole guy. Well done mate.
He is one heck of a good ole guy, thanks
If I had close by neighbors, I wish they were you!!
Same
you and me both!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nah you would get sick of him soon.
Very enjoyable, .... in every respect. Thanks for all the effort!
Lovely equipment btw and nice video!
Oh my...this is amazing. Well done lads!
p.s If I was a child and I saw this in real life I would have lost my mind!
This is awesome, a step back in time😊
Be nice to thy neighbor and maybe thy neighbor will give up a little real estate for a wide open mainline
beautiful, I would like to visit the place.
Amazing. i wish you many ears of happiness enjoying your trains.
Amazing
Thank you for sharing
I Am proud of what you do. Keep it up Don’t Stop Doing that.
There is not enough thumbs up for this .Great video
That is really cool. Thanks for sharing.
Your dad built a 4-4-2 Atlantic, with a vandy tender, in " Traveltown," which is a train musaeum, there is the real steel version of your dad's locomotive, The Atlantics were built with speed in mind.
I've got one in HO scale... I'd love to see 3007 in person... I've dreamed of a railroad going down my street next to my house, this one would suffice!
Awesome! Keep up the good work!
1000th like here, nice video here
Good afternoon from St John Parish, Louisiana 02 Oct 20.
What a wonderful video!!!
It's nice to see that the steam age still hasn't died out.
I want to be his neighbour
This is amazing! I use to volunteer at a railroad park back home that was 7.5" gauge and ran live steam. I live in Douglas now and have been wondering if there were any people or organizations around here. I miss steam a lot lol there's just something about a steam engine. Been thinking about trying to build one myself. Anyway that's an awesome looking train setup you have there!
Really not a "God damned thing".
More like a God blessed thing but so damn cool!
😎
This 59 yr old kid loves it.
🤓
Wow; tolle Modelleisenbahn im Garten. :-)
Everyone’s in their own World.
Thank you!
+htral I also agree with your dad -- I don't like the modern world that much either.
Very nice, Thanks
I wish I was your neighbour I would let you put a Spur track into my property
this is epic but their neighbors must hate them lol. Saturday morning some guys trying to sleep in and out of no where a fucking "WHOOOOOT WHOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!" from next door.
The neighbors love this shit, actually. Whole town is pretty into it.
biruboto thats the goooooooooood shit then
biruboto .what town if I can ask..and also what an awesome Dad you have!!!!!! we need more dads like this!!!!!!
Heck yeah id love to have this next door!!!!
Where's this located? I'd love to check it out
Awesome. Train.
Is this house on “Ballard Street”?
It's very, very cool and yes it's important.
I wonder how he keeps his track in alignment? And it looks to be flat bar. He even made his track.
love it!
Very well put together. Both the video and the railroad. It looks a bit bigger than 7-1/2" gauge. Is it 10-1/4?
Great video! May I ask the scale? Looks to be between 1.5" and 2.5". I grew up with a live steam railroad around our house as well. My dad (Tom Miller) loved trains and I loved messing around with them as a kid!
Very nice!
Is it 1.5" to the foot or 2.5? I can't tell due to the wide angle lens. Beautiful engine and rolling stock. 4-4-2 Atlantic?
Depends on whether it's a standard gauge or narrow gauge model. Standard gauge models are 1.5" or 1.6" to the foot, depending on whether the model was built to gauge standards or with a focus on scale accuracy. Narrow Gauge models tend to be 2.5" or even 3.5" to the foot depending on what gauge the full-size version is built for.
looks bigger than 7.5 gauge
YES! I've been waiting for a new video of this Engine and Railroad for so long! That SP Atlantic is gorgeous and she runs as good as she looks! It appears that she's 7.5" gauge but closer to the 2.5" scale mark, which I like because everything is a bit bigger, more stable and less fragile! I Love the No Diesels Sign in the Shop! Your father's commentary is very wise and he's a very knowledgeable man! I'd love to visit this railroad someday and meet him. How old is the Engine? It looks like either 1969 or 1989 on the builder's plate but I'm not sure. What's her Boiler Pressure?
125lbs!
It’s also nice because you can see the fire better.
Thanks for the video. You did a great job of building 3007. How long did it take? I have been around railroading all my life. My father was a third generation engineer and I was a forth generation engineer. I hired out on the Texas and Pacific shortly after my father retired from the T&P. I retired from the UP, through two mergers, in New Orleans in 2000. I got involved with LASTA near New Orleans shortly after I retired and I am their COO. We have SPX-3007’s big brother in standard gauge. SPX-745, a Mikado 2-8-2, was built in the SP Algiers shops, across the Mississippi River from New Orleans, in 1921. One of 11 built there and she is the only surviving Louisiana built standard gauge steam locomotive in existence. She was rebuilt to FRA standards between 2000 and 2004 and operated around Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri until April 2019. She is now undergoing her 1472 day / 15 year inspection / rebuild. We were hoping to have her fired back up for her 100th birthday in February 2021, but CV19 has probably delayed that. But I think we will throw her a big birthday bash at our yard in Jefferson, LA any way. If interested there are several videos of her here on You Tube running in our yard and out on the main lines of several class ones, regional, and short line railroads. Search SPX-745 to find them.
Wow; so cool
Does this railroad still exist? and what's the track gauge? Almost looks like a narrow gauge SP Atlantic which is really cool.
Wow what an amazing small railroad but what's the gauge of the track. Have a 1/8 scale railroad I'm going to build someday that is cool been near a lot of live steam locomotives before that is a nice engine
One of my favorite videos in EVERY way. Who shot this?
My son Bill.
Wow!!I would love to have this in my back yard.I love trains all my life.I was born to late to see steam.But my grand parents did see them.Is he gonna build a consdation or a mike steamer?I admire your dad work and wish I have that kind of talent.
Cool video thank you for sharing.. May I ask where is this, most towns wouldn't allow this in such a tight residential community. I've seen plenty of live steam but where the person has acres of room..
Casper, WY
biruboto cool and okay :-)
Lucky grandkids!
That train is amazing plz make more vids of 3007.
That's Bar Stock Rail,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Longer Lasting~
That is damn cool 🧐 awesome 👍
When people Want To Railroad one Way Or Another let Them Do it.
you cold make a movie....the land of the shorts...or the land of the giants :D
How did you build that tankcar...I'm having a hard time finding anyone to roll 10 gauge plate for me ?
Yes I did. I used one eighth inch wall steel pipe.
If I was driving down the road and saw that train running, the poor driver behind me wouldn't know what happened because my car would have teleported to the side of the road.
I completely agree with this gentleman's philosophy! By the way, does anyone know where this is located?Is it still running?
This is an amazing layout. I love the train. If you don't mind me asking, what is the tightest radius you have? I have a little lay out in my yard. All my curves are at 13' radius(limited room to work with). Simply put, Great job!!!!
radius is 25 ft.
That's awesome! What state is this in?
Wyoming
How long did this cute little locomotive take you to build?
Originally in 1966, 3 years, but has been rebuilt many times. It's an ongoing project.
@@charlese4680I see
I like to know the whistle. It's got a nice tone and wondering where to either buy one or receive the blueprints. I'm going to build an SP MT-4
chamber 1 10.575 chamber 2 8.100, chamber 3 6.850, 1.5 dia , dist base to tube .657, slit .010
Charles E thanks for the information
That is a beautiful old gal you got there
I heard you can buy locos like these but don’t know where anyone else know ?
5:22
They are washing their hands and face with that water, that’s not good...
Have the sparks from the locomotive ever caught the lawn on fire?
You'll notice there is very little lawn
Many times. There are plenty of people to put them out.
Do you ever take this to railroad clubs?
do you build these for others too?
I do make for others
what gauge is that? 10inch?
I just scrolled down and found the answer to my first question but not the second.
It is still running, yes, but not on any real set schedule any more (used to be every Sunday).
any plans on adding another engine out of curiousity,this awsome,and where are you located at???
Casper, WY, and yes, he's in the process of building an entirely new engine.
@@biruboto is this engine that’s in the video still around? It is a beautiful locomotive! Is this engine still running?
@@rudycarlson8245 its functional but tracks have been under repair for a while
Got a kick out of the kids!
Where is this 8th wonder of the world located??
Casper, wy.
Where is this?
what scale is it, 1/12?
where is this?
Casper, WY, US
oh yeah!
gotta locate it sometime when & IF II go there
Would you provide an address so I/we could find it on google maps?
Have your dad gotten used to that little public attention?
Yeah, the train has been a part of that town for so long.
:)
Is this in Cleveland Ohio??
Casper, Wyoming
