You should do a gameshow thing called "Fact or Foamer" and tell the contestants a piece of railroad information, and they have to determine if its a railroad fact, or if its just railroad fiction
Back in the day gram worked for BNSF out of St.Paul Minnesota. She was a rail line manager at the rail car hub, gravity car sorter in simple terms. We got two trips every year to the West coast on AmTrack. Talk about a fantastic time, and wonderfull views. Winter was the best time, as we might find our selfs "stranded" from snow fall or slids. The best view was from the power head "engine" in the plush air ride seats. The last trip I took was in 1988 when she retired. Thanks for the shows and the time to make them Hyce.
always hilarious! according to any Jeopardy watcher, the answer as a question HAS to be enforced or no points. even if it's the right answer. P.S. the in person Railroad Jeopardy MUST be Live Streamed so we all can laugh till we die!
Lol the signal bungalow was NOT what I was expecting although it was on the tip on my tounge I couldnt shout it at my phone screen fast enough lol This is fun for a Wednesday video!
Sadly, I watched the first one and still didn't know a lot of answers. Having said that, I am protesting the word cembre as a correct answer. Being curious, I looked it up and found that yes, Cembre is a company that makes those types of fittings. They are called AR260D OR AR280 Rail web cable connection system. Probably other companies make them also. It's just a crimp on terminal fitting. It's similar to people calling any locking pliers a "vise-grip".
When I watched the first one and he said that, I was totally confused because at my little short line, we didn't use any AR260s or 280s. We just used exothermic connectors for both the head and web connections. Then again, we also had pretty bad theft issues in a couple sections of the line, so using less expensive and easier to replace thermite connectors was probably keeping our costs under control better too.
@@CAPFlyer oh yeah, exothermic welding or CAD welding is also really common. With us being an electrified railroad we use all cembre for the reliability sake.
I am at work and I was listening to the quiz and I almost shit my pants when you sound the whistle for like 4 seconds 😂🤣 I love it but I had the volume turned quite up so I could listen ha ha. You should make a warning about loud sounds because of heavy swearing 😂🤟🏻 i love it Hyce. Hope you guys had fun making the quiz. Kind regards Bjørn
@@Hyce777 if you ask me it's always good to get a "blast" from a whistle when watching a video just to make one say "what the f***" it spices up the day. Looking forward to the next video Hyce 🤟🏻🇩🇰
Omg that is So HILARIOUS how leighton just, y'know,. said Signal bungalow and everyone laughed! that is just funny! Also Hyce, you did give him the points he had 1800 and I saw your arrow move to add the points so ye you did give him the points, but you know what, just by the shear laughter you guys had, give em 800 for that cause that was just too funny!
With as many times as I was screaming “it’s a (whistle)ing bungalow!” I was becoming concerned that it wasn’t, and I’d just look like a (whistle)ing moron. And nine seconds of the whistle? That must be a record.
The Signal Bungalow story; When the first Signal man was using the Signal Control tower the train crews would tease him about his Signal Bungalow (because the first signal control tower was literally in the foot print of the standard American Bungalow) one day a business executive of the Railroad happen to hear this Jabbing of the Signal man and the term stuck for the railroad (cause marketing!) and spread to the other railroads. This term is believed to originate in the western Railroads and stays with the western Railroads.
@@IndustrialParrot2816 I read this in one of the many books on American Railroading that exists. and they state that the proper term is Signal control tower however as these railroaders commit to the term it makes me think that either they can't help themselves perpetuating the joke or that they think this is the proper term.
"Hey guys, we're recording for youtube so keep it PG13" - Many train whistles sound off to cover it up. Anyways... This just proved my effort to be even worse than I thought.
Also, if idd be incharge of building/designing a railroad , idd (atleast on the lowlands) build like the midwest, and have the wierdest yard layouts ever(triangle yards, and turnaround loops at the end and always near an industry), and strange ass names
Good video this stuff goes over my head too much to remember 😅 but its pretty interesting to watch i like this video also.….. i lost my eureka back box how do i find it, it took off somewhere i didn't see where :( so now i got no wood haha 🤣 i found the train but not wood box so im stuck at the furnace place behind saw mill, hopefully the dev will add markers for these items so sad to have no money on here and no train nothing will get done
Just because it annoys me, it IS a permanent railway electrical contact. The company is called Cembre, it's part identification is AR60D, in a way both answers are more correct than 'Cembre'.
Hyce do you have a D&Rgw class 48 0-6-0 tank locomotive in the tech tree of railroads online and is there gonna be another tech tree for rolling stork or diesel electric locomotive/ gasoline locomotives planned for railroads online yet

This was a lot of fun! Now, I need to test you all...
For those curious, Gloria called me "a pretty big foamer".
But you are Ellis, don't you try to lie about it.

That's brilliant!
@@Hyce777next 3/4 show episode?
you gave Leighton 800 points for the signal bungalow. you gave the points just as you started laughing then forgot you did.
Lol, sounds about right...
Judging by the whistles (and the length thereof) that is a LOT of spicy dialogue.
“What is the throttle?”
“It’s a long metal bar that makes the locomotive go faster, but that’s not important right now.”

Now you have to take these friends and make another tier list with the new locomotives on the tech tree
I love railroad jeopardy! This is one of the three places I can use my train facts, the model train club, the train store, and these videos.
Lol the signal bungalow was NOT what I was expecting although it was on the tip on my tounge I couldnt shout it at my phone screen fast enough lol
This is fun for a Wednesday video!
I’d call it an REB (for Relocatable Equipment Building), but I am somewhat British
Definitely a much shorter episode this time around 😂 Still an enjoyable watch!

I'm realizing that it was a poor question. We just call them cembre connections in the industry. Sorry of a Kleenex situation. Lol
@@Hyce777 You know, we need a Hyce point meter the next time.
Where Hyce gets negative points for bad questions :D
Hmm…Cembre & Toltec…A railroad with a LOT of signaling going on unlike another narrow gauge tourist line with a similar sounding name…

I will go to my grave kicking and screaming that you CAN drive a train and no person on this earth will convince me otherwise.
I will die on the other side of that hill. lol!
I’d love to see you guys play this in the same location with many adult drinks
Leighton got 400 extra points on the Signal Bungalow question.
And Brett with Throat Sheet.
Poorly officiated... lol!
Lol indeed
Same thing happened with the whistle cord
It's interesting these guys answered all the questions in half the time meaning they know at least twice as much and and answered twice as fast.
I am at work and I was listening to the quiz and I almost shit my pants when you sound the whistle for like 4 seconds 😂🤣
I love it but I had the volume turned quite up so I could listen ha ha.

Cheers! Yeah i didn't realize that the audio was so out of whack. Seemed ok on my end but I'll check it out for next time. Hahaha

This is a cool video idea for the boyz.
It's very interesting learning alongside the contestants!!
Train whistles as censor sounds is hilarious and just ingenious!

Bret got double points at 18:30 lol
Very fun and informative! Thank you for putting these together!
I wonder what my swear whistle would be. Probably Western Maryland's Illinois Central 3 chime whistle.😂
My favorite fact is that part of the boiler is called the barrel.
With as many times as I was screaming “it’s a (whistle)ing bungalow!” I was becoming concerned that it wasn’t, and I’d just look like a (whistle)ing moron.
And nine seconds of the whistle? That must be a record.
I find it funny that CZcams thinks that this is "Penn & Teller's Smoke and Mirrors".
Should do it like on Radio when morning shows do Jeopardy. Contestants just call out their own name to buzz in.
Notice how this episode is only around 27 minutes long…
;)
Does give it away a bit, doesn't it
The Signal Bungalow story;

I knew of signal bungalows from some foamer in Florida

22:30 96dB is in fact double the acoustic energy of 93dB and a difference of 3dB is the point at wich most people can tell a difference in volume
I call my old bungalow a shack. 😁
Can you do a Canadian Railroad jeopardy? Our railroads here don't get alot of attention in video games.
That went better then last time. Waiting to see what happens next.
That whistle scared the hell out of me, lmao
15:02 That is by far the hardest ive seen you laugh, hyce. hahaha!!!
The [Royal] Gorge War was actualy settled in court.
No kidding? I'd love to read the documentation haha
"Hey guys, we're recording for youtube so keep it PG13" - Many train whistles sound off to cover it up.

11:02 Could you imagine if someone said Amtrak? 😆
This was good but I feel like the other one was better because it was more relatable. But this was funny and the whistles are nice
nice!
WHISTLE SOUNDS INTENSIFY
fun fact train horn aperently not louder than the machine at my workplace
lmao no wonder im slowly going deaf
15:48 22:35 you gave him double points

That's how you sound normally 😜
12:48 YES I GOT IT RIGHT FIRST, I DID IT I DID IT!
hyce pls try to lower the train whistles its hurts with headphones still loved the vid though
Well hyce rigged it JK :) He gave Leighton double point and double points for brett and another double for leighton
Well the original Washington is in north-east England
What is the meshinky video? Sorry I'm kinda slow

That's fair - we just all call them cembre in the industry. Which, is slang basically at that point, so i suppose it made for a bad question.
*SNIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIF* I smell something
Hyce you gave extra points 5 categories with 1500 points each totals 7500 available points yet the total given was 7800 lol

Yes
@@Hyce777 please is there any of railroads online developers a youtubers that does model streams because I'm addicted to it
any news on the new big update with track system :-)
Should hopefully have the first test construction tools beta branch on May 13!
@@Hyce777 thanks - excited about how well it's going to work
Does railroads online work on windows 11
I'm not sure! I'd imagine so?
What is the Beans?
You should trick them put a question in not related to trains make it about planes 🤣 can you do that in this game trick people
Yes get drunk and make content for RRJ.
The Whistling is a bit much and much too loud
Apologies on that one.
