humor (allegedly)
If you’re the first to
and
we use it, it’s worth $25!
We think you’ll find this tongue-in-cheek video to be a lot of fun. It
also treats model railroading as a hobby that’s a respectable pursuit
by grown-ups, not some kind of offbeat fringe interest. If you know
of other videos that would be a good candidate for our humor
section, please pass them along!

More Derailments humor ...
One Saturday, a drunk miner missed the last train home. He wandered
across to the rail yard, found an engine in steam, backed it out onto the
main line, and drove it to his bunk house, stopped it and went home to bed.
He was charged with “theft of a locomotive” by the railroad.
Defense counsel:
Was the engine on railroad property before my client
moved it?
Railroad Attorney:
Yes.
Def:
Was it still on your railroad line when he left it?
RR:
Yes.
Def:
Did it at any time leave your railroad line’s tracks?
RR:
No.
Def:
Then where is the theft?
Magistrate:
Case dismissed.
