14:18 _"As I say you could [...] skip all this, but I thought you might like to see how I'm doing it"_ *Well, the entire reason to watch your channel is because we want to see you doing it!!* :) You do so much cool stuff we are either unable or too lazy to. And it's always a delight to watch you.

I watched and immediately subscribed so I can hear the next "thrilling installment" if for no other reason than to hear your voice. Your narration of anything would be interesting because of that voice. What a remarkable talent you have.

Why do I like these videos so much?!? I know nothing about trains, have very little interest in machining, and will probably never have a need for a railway. This is the friendly KZread environment I didn't think I would find again. I love it

Golf cart motors can be used to construct an electric loco. May even be able to use battery power. May also be able to use a trolley wire. Please consider electrification in some form. That's just yet another idea for you to kick around. Great work so far! Elegant, simple, cheap, robust. Nice work!

I’d go for a rororvator, then you could use small ‘normal’ wheeled wagons on areas without rails.

thank you algorithm this is actually a good series

Hi Tim, I love your creations. For your loco, have you considered an old diesel ride on lawn mower as a base. If you can find one affordabley with hydrostatic drive, would give very controlable drive in both directions as well as brakes. It would make the right noise too....... very important

I find this man's relentless good cheer and positive outlook to be a boon to a weary world. Lovely man, he has my subscription.

Tim, you are an international treasure!

Thank you for being an inspiration to me. This helped me get ideas to build myself a model railway, a small line in a forest with 2 small diesel engines and about 9 wagons

Loved returning to the start of the project!

This railway is a great idea! Just one point, which really doesn't have much bearing on your design.. just writing here more or less to pass around the info. On a rail-car, the wheel profile is angled down somewhat toward the center of the two tracks and the top of the track profile is crowned. Because of this, the rail-car naturally centers between the rails. The wheel flanges are not designed to contact the side of the rail at all, except on turns. Setting things up this way allows there to be some variance in the track width and significantly reduces friction as the flanges aren't rubbing or banging back and forth between the rails. Anyway, on a small scale slow moving setup, none of this is an issue and of course there is significant complexity and expense manufacturing the parts as described above. I just thought I'd mention this in case anyone was curious. Richard Feynman actually talks about this somewhere or other.. oh, I found it :-) kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2uclrGtdqfUiag.html

Subbed. Excellent ideas you have. I think it looks great too. Keep up the good work.

I just found this video and your voice combined with railroad content touches a deep nostalgia from watching Thomas the tank engine. Wonderful videos, thank you. I wish my property was big enough to make this worth doing.

I'll be rewatching videos you made in the spring and summer over this winter, firstly because they're good, informative and I earn a lot yet also because they won't be cold, wet and miserable like it is now outside. Winter has only started today (meteological, astronomical starts Dec 21st I think) and I'm frozen and cheesed off already! Got saoked outdoors today. Urgh.

I love the "survivalist" / junkyard vibe of how you build. All functional. Even the simplest looking parts have crazy amount of function and thoughts on how they will work, or how you will make them work. So much of to days things remove the person, the skilled operator, add safety guards and the like. This has been a great video. The background behind the why, and how. was great. But you forgot to show how much rail your workshop has? (or did I miss some videos?) This would be the reason for the gauge / size. wow, love how the pipe has so many but simple functions. I can see how the bolt is only holding the rail upright, the pipe can slip in the sleeper hole, to allow the rail to settle onto the rail. But the extra length becomes a "Ground peg" to keep the sleeper in place. I bet in the future if you found some sleepers sliding in the mud, you could remove the bolt, hammer in some rod and replace the bolt making a longer "peg". Found the barn rails video from 4 years ago kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2iMt7hrkdffgKw.html

Very Beautifull with practical video for made of a simple railway track ❤️ 👏👏👏👏

This is a great video. As an railway club member you just invited a new way of the hobby.

When i helped install the live steam at the museum in my town, we used flat bar with 2x2s and slots in them for the bar to be slid into

So great seeing this again considering how it has grown! The little we knew back then compared to now :^)

This is wonderful. I love seeing the ingenuity. Can't wait to keep seeing more of your content. Cheers

Enjoying the simplicity of how you went about this bro. Safe travels up your way.

I have an idea for you... When laying track. Could you setup a rail cart to carry all the tools and bits and pieces needed for the construction of the new track?.. Could save time walking back and forth from the shop to the end of the track and back again... Even building a custom train cart could be invaluable depending on how vast you are planning on building your rail cart system Another idea is to pre build sections of track inside the shop then rolling them out to the end of the track to install. just some ideas not sure if you thought about them I love the project

What a brilliant way to build a railroad. I will be following this with interest as I can see the use of something like this at my farm.

Yes yes, join up a railway island to MN😂. And a different gauge if I did it. Nice job👍

The engineering scale you put forth is very achievable. I could stretch to round wooden poles thrown on the ground systematically.

I admire your approach. I always look forward to your next video. Many thanks.

This was my part of my plan for our farm

This was indeed a thrilling installment! Kant vait for ze next one.

I can see there is a lot of work goes into machining all the parts for your railway. Still it should all work just fine.

The start of a saga

love your videos, please keep them coming!

I love this. And I think hobby/toy grade yard trains could use similar building styles, they just don't have to be so rugged. Works at all levels of yard railways

Hurrah! Thank-you all!

All brilliant. I want to do something similar, I'm building a replica mineshaft and would love to have some minecarts running around.

Great Stuff as usual. I was told years go that the flange on railway wheels are only there for public confidence , if they touched the track they'd wear out.

@simong9067

2 жыл бұрын

That's partly true. On 'proper' trains the wheel profile is carefully designed so that the tread and 'root' of the flange do most of the guiding, but even so the flanges are needed on sharp curves. They also perform a vital task guiding the wheelset through the crossing (frog) of points, in conjunction with the checkrails. In other videos, Tim concluded that the complexity of making coned wheels isn't worth it for his simple railway, so his flanges do all the work.

Absolutely Creosote or similiar, n 2 coats in between...... And with Prices of wood why not use your natural wood tree growth you have already, very smart move! Make sure you ballast is 2 to 3 inches thick under sleepers, that'll keep water sway from sleepers. Makes a huge difference in wood preservation over time.

I predict an electric drive with a small diesel generator would work best for you. 2 separate systems make design less complicated with the generator added last after the electric drive design is worked out

Nice

Since you already have a track, you should have used the same gauge so you could use the same cars.(unless you already did). Round ties or trimmed ties would also be appropriate and less work.

I don't know either - but I suggest you simply experiment. Set up your flat-bar on sleepers, add half the expected weight on top (because the weight will be shared betwen two axles, and then move your sleepers around till you're happy that they're not flexing too much. Good luck!

@SvengelskaBlondie

Жыл бұрын

Square tubes have pretty much nothing that make them better than flat iron. The main problem is that they have very thin walls, often just 2 or 3 millimeters. Not only is that bad for taking on heavier weight, you have no way of bending them without having to use special tools to bend them. Only way to get any strength in them would be to fill them with something, problem with that is that then you lose all flexibility in it and it's also extra work.

I think you are just trying to replicate multiton railroads while for small cargo rail track you can make it with rammed earth, and a bit of geopolymer concrete on top and use only a 1cm wide metal string as rail contact or just screwed stone profile and using wooden wheels instead steel Granite tram tracks where built in britain and you can read about it, and i think its the future of road transport because is free and available everywhere and can create a revolution of pedal powered vehicles with little resources and no need for dirt road infrastructure
