Interesting. I’ll have to watch. I have the VL Big Boy and PE which incidentally isn’t VL.

I dont know how people watch these videos as the guy annoys the hell out of me

Well he must be doing something right as he has a lot of subscribers. I look at it this way, it's promoting the hobby and introducing it to a younger generation. If that works it keeps our favorite train importers in business. The content is always interesting although Chris does have an off the scale energy level. Not a bad thing. Some videos are more interesting than others but that's true with anything. There are a group of these guys each doing their thing promoting the hobby. Never a bad thing. I would have a hard time criticizing them when they are helping the hobby survive. Your mileage may vary.

Apparently it's RBP train videos (not RPB)

How about some links when you post......

'I annoy myself sometimes." --CHRIS RAINES

I wonder if Lionel gives him engines or loans them as he is good advertising for them. And he has a lot of expensive engines.

I tend to agree with Marty in the idea of promoting the hobby. At some point all these guys become a little annoying and while this guy is high energy consider the alternative.

I never thought this was a good look for Lionel or the hobby.

Not sure I've seen any of his videos, but just Wayne's screen grab of him is pretty annoying (and there's no sound)!

Going to York?

Yes I am going to York even though it sucked the last couple of times I still tend to find some great buys there

This guy Dave broke every rule for making a video. Slow to get going, talk slow, not getting to the topic, at least you could hear him some videos people talk softly.
