Building a Turntable and Roundhouse for all our Locomotives in Railroads Online! 

YOU NEVER HAD ME, YOU NEVER HAD YOUR TRAIN

Indeed this episode, the turns truly were tabled. And speaking of diesels needing service, kAN should check out the story of the Canadian National locomotive 3502 and why that had to be serviced after it did a thing... 😉

You should ask Hyce what he's favorite electric locomotive is

I make books for schools, libraries etc. Just have to say day shift has about 10 managers, they get stuff done but the night shift works 3 extra hours at night and we almost double the day shift production. Oh night has 2 manages. Great vids btw

Has Hyce ever run in to train surfers when working on the railroad?

The reason for the legal drinking age being 21 in the US, is because at the time, that was when people believed brain development stopped, specifically the part dedicated to decision-making. Alcohol can impair and alter brain development, so they didn't want you to drink until it stopped developing. That is also why the age of voting used to be 21, but it was lowered to the age of the draft, because they were protests about being allowed to die in war but not to vote. The actual age is 25. So, technically, the drinking age should be 25. At least, as far as I know/remember.

My favorite shift: In security when the night guy didn't come in so I'd have to stay from 4:30 PM to 6 AM, those good ol 14 hour shifts

Funny thing about drinking in the US, specifically in Wisconsin you can legally drink at any age as long as you have a parent, gaurdian, or spouse that is over 21 with you.

I have been to the Durango and Silverton railroad a few times and love their museum. Very cool that you got to work there briefly!

Love watching you and hyce. You're such fun! Great job on the round table setup, it turned out beautifully. I work late shift, and we consistently perform better than our day shift too.

Kan i think you should use a climax, goat, or shay to run the switchback when you do the 20 car runs because it will be hard on your road engines to do the two percent climb with that many cars plus you could build a shunting area with sand, water, and fuel to keep your climbing train stocked but also keep you road engines there as you climb off the main line. Addendum if you get a shay or another climax name it cliff jumper

Day 6: ask Hyce about that time all the engines got stuck on a mountain from an avalanche

want a very interesting and little-known (for foreigners) story? It's about a person who was, Steam locomotive engineer, locomotive mechanic, Mechanical engineer specialized in combustion engine, climber, cyclist, inventor and among his inventions, he “also” invented the plane (???WHAT???) I recommend giving a brief look at the history of Santos Dummont

A question for Hyce in the next episode, did the various narrow gauge railroads over there ever have dual gauge (narrow and standard gauge) roundhouses, including a dual gauge turntable? Here in Australia, there were/are a couple that are still dual gauge and one preserved roundhouse in Peterborough (South Australia) is a triple gauge facility (narrow, standard and broad gauges).

hey kAN, started playing myself lately, few ideas ya might like from the Fauqet Rail co., handcars at the buying loadout area, i set them to push my new purchases out and then 2% reg reverse back in, makes getting the cats out much easier. second, i just ran logs to sawmill and beams to depot, 20 cart trains with glenbrooke worth bout 1500 a run and a 20 min round trip. you could just make an episode of you guys doing like 3 or 4 runs with some of the always enjoyable dialog. just did this and got a class 70 ez.

Here at the Ferrymead Tramway, we regularly have people walk through the shop looking around, but you have to stay specifically on a yellow-lined path if you aren't a worker.

18:23 Kan not noticing he can link the shed to rail, heh.

switch your grid alignment from 10 to 1 and get that ground work under the shed straight with the building

new kan video Lets goo perfect for my morning😄

I live in the UK and when my brother was younger he managed to get a hold of some whiskey and drank a whole bottle of it, he was 3-4. So when I heard that you had to be 21 years old to drink in the US I was surprised

My current shift is 10pm to 6am and it really is something! At this job, at least, I prefer it over day-shift by many magnitudes.

17:20 I work with Circuit boards and PWBs, this conversation hit way too close to home lol

In Montana I've seen many of old train stations that were built in the era of the steam engine, and some had round houses attached and it still amazes me how black it is almost 80 years later how black it is.

I wonder if kan and hyce have ever looked into the qr beyer garratt class loco. The drive setup is super long and very interesting. Don’t think it’s narrow gauge though

Just noticed but every other train has that plow thing at the front. If the class 70 has one it should be train number 21 instead of 13 to keep the pattern going. Maybe a "Hyce"ler can be number 13 with how often Hyce bins it.

can't wait for the duodecuple headed train pulling 80 cars up the 10 percent

I had CAD classes down the hall from the BNSF classrooms

this made me sad, because there was a perfectly fine roundhouse where I live, but they took it down, instead of making it into a railroad museum. Now there's just an empty plot (or "brownfield" or whatever). about the turntable, I think there's one more type you didn't mention: a mechanical (gear and chain) one - you turn a crank and it, well, turns

The round table in my country it's translates in english as ( keyboard ) Key = mutually together & board = table. So keyboard a table for communication.

They talk about when they are basically talking about joining the railroads is exactly what I did and all become a truck driver over the road got bored of College, running low on money came a truck driver. I got about an average of 1400 a week.

1:00 In Belgium we are allowed to drink beer and wine from 16 an heavy stuff at 18

Yo bro the making the track for the round house you should use the 2 beams on the turn table to line up the next run and I would recommend that you throw a switch on most of the round house for extra capacity the engine shed is 2 lane anyway

the railroad sounds like the army in a basic since

Keep the series going!!

I'd call the 21 the 'Black Jack' or maybe 'Black Jacque' for kAN up there in Maple Syrup land...

top ten reasons to have discord notifications on:

Amtrak Training, they call it CHoo Choo U, is in Delaware.

So i wanted to see if they ever made a complete circle round house so I ask hyce bout it then the algorithm reminded me of the B&O RR Museum roof collapse of 2003. 15 years ago near windgap PA there's a round house on private property i was granted permission to photograph in situe. It was 90% intact just missing some window panes. Had original locks from the late 1800 early 1900s and has been locked since the 1930s. The Windows are high up and there weren't drones or selfie sticks then. They said only film what i can safely get. Theres also an old steam shovel and steam powered dragline. This is the land of whiskey coal and concrete. The anthracite road, road of the black diamond, yada yada yada.nipples.

Can u ask Hyce if they ever sent any locomotives to Juniata Railroad Shop in Altoona Pa. That shop is owned by Norfolk Southern which has a crane that can pick up a locomotive and carry it up in the air over other locomotives from one bay to another!

dunno if ya noticed or not but the #1 zooma did the wheel thing as well while on turntable

You guys were talking about round houses and drinking age and no one mentioned the downtown Toronto roundhouse which now has a brewery in 3 of its stalls. As a fellow Canadian I am slightly disappointed.

1:00 you know in Germany you can drink with 14 and buy beer with 16?

Somewhere a Kosmo just randomly sneezed...

Some larger workshops/storage facilities in europe had/have tables which go sideways between parallel tracks ... tranfer tables in english I believe. Are they common in North America? There dont seem to be games which have those implemented, which is a shame.

21:34 "You're rewarding people for having kids!" -Tax exemptions be like -Baby mama child support be like -Biology be like -Retirement-age care be like Sorry, just how life be

About the night shift.. no... not just engineering. Also foodservice

Nah the goat is comically big.

19:04 Accidentally orders a log car 19:23 oops log car!

thats why when im the legal drinking age in Canada (sorry for spelling) thats were im going. i live in usa

cool

i wonder if curve to curve switches would make parallel tracks the same width as shed tracks...🤔

If I’m not mistaken, the federal drinking age is 18 in the states….. but 21 in all 50

As someone from the UK, I can confirm that the US is indeed THE ENTIRE WORLD… wait

We're Knights of the Turn-table We build tracks as we're able We make long trains and foul the mains With humpwork impecc-able We railroad here in Camelot We pee in cups and bin a lot

Need two betsy-s permanently linked together called the Fairly

Partially through, I could hear his mouse clicks for a while

I got a Hyce question, what happens when a derailment results in small fire that heats a tanker? Would they open the tanker and burn the contents to relieve pressure if it's something like vinyl chloride? Follow-up, does he know about the East Palestine Ohio derailment?

WE want the Castle Now!!

Bread 👍

Hi

Claims to have an engineering degree... Quotes Monty Python... Yep that passes.

Yo kAN for your next "ask hyce" segment ask if he knows how they transport the locomotives?

What Railroads ONLINE! Needs is a wye switch.

so since you seem to look at the comments to ask hyce questions... why do some steam locomotives have 3 domes? Ive seen several early ones with 3 domes, but also some later steam locomotives with 3, and want to know why, and advantages/disadvantages for this.

There may not be a parallel here, but I work at a grocery store, and night-stock has no clue what’s going on. Do they run 50% more pallets than day stock? Honestly depends, but they make up for it by not overstocking, but overfacing (making it hard to find empty stock) and leaving 1/4 full boxes at the ends of the aisles, instead of in the backroom on a pallet or overstocked on the shelf, cluttering the aisle.

Kan, I just realized, a few episodes you talked about a 5 horsepower engine crushing 4 cars and never told that story in the next episode. You should tell it

You should call it train alot

Climax just single handily caused global warming

BTW, the Cooke 2-8-0 can go scary speeds.

Why nuclear powered steam locos are not successful . Ask hyce about this?

What would happen if you use 2 of the same tenders on 1 locomotive? Does it double the water capacity?

I'm back for my random podcast.

Hey guys what’s up with the freight car or tender trucks seems like they want to turn on straight track and turn the opposite way in curves

LOL STOPPERS

Now build the castle on the hill

A black cloud of smoke

What is the oldest locomotive has hyce worked on and has hyce been to the national Train museum in York England.

349th YAY!🎉

yee yee bois

Is there a way I can download the map they made?

It's just a random thought but why don't you just put a caboose on the roof of the freight depot and name it "Office Management" just for a laugh

Day something I just don’t want to keep counting asking for caboose

Soooo in Wisconsin there is no minimum age as long as you are with your parents, need to be 21 otherwise.

There are other countries with a drinking age of 21. It's not all about Canada Kan!

Ah they know their classics...Camelot....it's a silly place....

Can you Ask hyce what they think about the Utah transit authority frontrunner
