Neil Young's New Train Layout Underway in "South of California"

Neil Young's Train Layout Under Construction

 

Neil Young's new model train layout is Under Construction in "South of California", per a recent Times-Contrarian | NYA post.

From  Times-Contrarian | Neil Young Archives:

Now that I have settled with my soul-mate Daryl in the South of California where we see a lot of old friends, we are creating a new layout for all the kids young and old to meet and come together again! This time with lots of new grandchildren to play as well!

There will be a long highway built ‘round the edge to allow grandkids to play with their little diecast cars until they have learned how to carefully begin running the trains. The kid’s eyes are all at track level for the perfect perspective. Ain’t that great!!

...

Both these images show the terrain on only one side of the layout, the west end. The entire layout is divided by a canyon only partially visible in the top picture. In a while, when the layout is solid on both sides of the canyon, construction will advance to the track laying stage. I hope by summer to be surrounded by kids (of all ages) playing with the great old and new electric trains we have collected over the years. We will be bringing you progress reports right here at TRACKSIDE VIEWPOINT in the near future. Stay tuned folks. Watch for Trains!

Full article and photos on Times-Contrarian | Neil Young Archives:

As Neil mentions in his NYA post, he's a big "train nerd".  He worked with Lionel Trains in the 1990’s to create a control and sound system called TrainMaster and RailSounds.

NYA Subscriber News: "Clyde Coil - 3 Rail World" Videos


Lionel's 2341 Jersey Central FM Locomotive | NYA

The latest Subscriber News on Times-Contrarian | NYA provides updates to the timeline of videos from 1995 filmed in Neil Young's Train Barn featuring vintage Lionel train models.

The "Clyde Coil - 3 Rail World" series is quite fascinating -- particularly if you're a model train enthusiast. The "It's A Fake!" episode focuses on Lionel's elusively rare 2341 Jersey Central FM Locomotive.

Of course, who can possibly forget the controversy over the Lionel Greendale Train Set in 2004?

Here's an interesting blog by a Neil Young fan called The Back Part Of The Basement. The blog is written by Lou who also likes model trains and Martin guitars. Here's the story of meeting up with Neil at Lionel train show.



In 2017, Neil Young auctioned off his model train collection, which brought back many memories of Neil with his sons Zeke and Ben and daughter Amber.

Here's a video from the mid-1990's of Neil Young filmed at his California ranch and around his train layout with his family, Pegi, Ben and Amber.

The segment was broadcast on the Nickelodeon Network and hosted by Linda Ellerbee.

TODAY - AUCTION: Neil Young Collectibles - Guitars, Cars, Trains + More


PROPERTY FROM THE COLLECTION OF NEIL YOUNG
(Click photo to enlarge)

Today, Saturday, December 9, -- what has been described as "The Best Yard Sale in the World" -- a major Neil Young collectibles auction will be held by Julien's Auctions.

The auction begins at 10:00 AM PST.

1935 Martin F-7 Acoustic Guitar
PROPERTY FROM THE COLLECTION OF NEIL YOUNG











































NEIL YOUNG PAINTED DESK CHAIR

From catalog: "A vintage wood desk chair on casters that has been painted with variegated geometric shapes by a company called One of Designs. The seat back bears the inscription, “If you rest.. ..You Rust..” Signed, Nancy Woods, and dated, 2013, in black marker to the underside."

More on AUCTION: Neil Young Collectibles on December 9, 2017 and Neil Young Auctioning His Model Train Collection.

Also, see What I Learned While Staring at Neil Young’s Flannel Shirts by By Amanda Petrusich:
As we circled the gallery, Nolan told me that they were receiving registrations for the auction from unusual places, rural places—“not New York City, but upstate New York.” Young was precise and exacting about the train descriptions in the auction catalogue, in part because he knew that specialty collectors who had little to no interest in his musical career would want to bid for those. “He wanted to make sure we were getting it right,” Nolan said. “He didn’t worry at all about the guitars and the equipment. But he said, ‘I want to be involved with the trains. Collectors of trains are fanatical, and they’ll want the right information.’ ”

...

While I stared intently at it, Nolan described the process of curating the auction as both collaborative and cathartic for Young. “This was hard for him,” he said. “It was hard letting go—especially of the trains. He didn’t really have a hard time with the equipment or the guitars, but the trains were hard. He’s had many back-and-forths, emotional ups and downs.” And such is the purest validation of the metaphysical worth of stuff—decluttering is virtuous, sure, but ridding ourselves of material histories can feel like dismantling our own skeletons, bone by bone. It makes it easier for us to disappear from the world.

From Julien's Auctions:
Julien’s Auctions has announced that PROPERTY FROM THE COLLECTION OF NEIL YOUNG will close the world-record breaking auction house’s 2017 season on December 9, 2017.

Property from the two time inducted Rock and Roll Hall of Fame legend will be presented in a single owner sale, and include his extraordinary personal collection of model trains, classic cars, guitars, recording gear, clothing, memorabilia and more.

Lionel Trains Shakeup

It looks like there might be some fallout at Lionel Trains from the recent Greendale train debacle.

Lionel CEO (Bill Bracy) and Marketing VP (John Brady) were terminated by Lionel this past Monday. There's no "official" word from Lionel yet, according to Classic Toy Trains Magazine.

Naturally, this topic is being much-discussed on the O Gauge Railroading forums. One recent post, from someone claiming to have "inside" information, states that the firings were at the behest of Neil Young and Lou Kovach due to the execs' "dragging their feet" with innovations to the Train Master Command Control system, invented by Neil and his Lionetech firm.

Sadly, major layoffs seem to be in the works at Lionel, too.

This is the third executive shake-up of Lionel since the September 1995 purchase of Lionel from Richard Kughn by Wellsprings, LLC and Neil Young.

Thanks to Lou for the info!
