Hiya : Love your videos and I was wondering if you would be a guest on my show I have on Blog Talk Radio ? It is for Hobby Arts Crafts Radio Control Planes Music Cars Clay and Paint etc. I`m trying to have people intereated in doing things again instead of just sitting and worry…..
Enough of that these days it seems.
Please return message if intereted or if a friend is interested in just talking few minutes or an hour about what interests you have … Sincerely Yours; Torq64
This song always brings back memories of my dad. He loved trains and played the guitar by ear. I remember him sitting next to the Christmas tree, a small, wooden train track, and playing this song on his guitar. Brings tears back to my eyes.

I once went to a shop like this (it wasnt this but close) in OC, we went in but they kicked us out…in order to stay we had to “pay”. I hated that, but anyways nice collection and hopfully you get more!!
Beautiful……takes me back to running our ho train with my Dad when I was little. It ran through Dad’s workshop, the playroom, and a hall, all in the basement. There were mountains, a lake, tunnels, bridges, and Dad made it all. It’s still there, 53 years later, though don’t know if my sister and her husband (they bought the house from my parents in the 80’s) have kept it running. What a shame if it isn’t…..
My dad loved trains and at eighteen he was a switch-men on the IL Central for towns of Harvey and Richton IL for a short time. My Grandfather also, worked for Railroad as a night watchmen before he retired. My Dad bought me a train set when i was little kid and help me set up, this was a favorite childhood memory! Every time this song came on the radio my Dad would turn up the volume. He passed in1995 of cancer but songs like this keep his memory alive! England Swings & King of the Road! too!

One of the nicest sets of vieos on here, and the haunting melody accompanying them the best. Really captures the magic of toy trains!!!

Thank you for putting this up. It is my son’s FAVORITE video of all time. We watch it almost every day, and sing the song in the bathtub at night.
