I've seen this before. Pretty funny, but it's hard to watch at times...
What kind of a sensible human being would consider crashing model trains "art" anyway? I mean, sure, there are alot of odd mediums out there, but come on!

I think its meant as a joke. I thought it was hilarious!

I didn't watch it becuase youtube is stuck, but I saw a pretty disturbing model train wreck in Superman Returns. Is it the same one? I didn't like model train wrecks, too disturbing.
It's a parody.
The guy who made it left a nice message on the forum the last time this came up a couple of months ago.
I've never understood people's fascination with crashing model trains.
Whenever I tell somebody that I have a model railroad they inevitably ask me if I crash them like on the Adams Family. I have a hard time not rolling my eyes.
However I do find prototype wrecks fascinating, with all the twisted metal and everything.

Where I teach, we have a huge--I mean HUGE 'Smart Board' in the choral room. Sometimes during break, I'll let some of my students fool around with YouTube, assuming they decide to keep it civil. The other day, one of my students, knowing I was a model railroader, cued up the Model Train Wreck and asked me, "Hey, Mr. White, do YOU do this?"
Yes, it was dumb, but when you've got eight really fun teenage boys standing around and going "BWA-HAAH--SO COOL!", then you can't help but start laughing right along with them. I countered by putting my website on line, and after looking at it, one of the boys turned to the others and said, "Man, Mr. White would NEVER do something as stupid as that on HIS layout."
But we all got a kick out of the YouTube. BTW, one of my tenors would like to become Dr. Bjorn Carrcupler's assistant--or at the very least find out where he buys his bow ties.

LOL, That was pretty funny! What is it with people and train wrecks? You don't know how many times I've been asked by my non-modelrailroad friends if i've ever pulled a Gomez (Adam's family) on my layout!
Thanks for sharing.
Have Fun.... Bob.

No comment on the video. However, while on the topic of train wrecks, my wife wants me to model an Amtrak derailment on our future layout. Yes I admit it, she is as warped as I am.

... *shudders* ... that was just plain brutal! I can honestly say I shut my eyes for that part! Seeing a model steam locomotive with its pilot truck off the rails makes me cringe never mind the destruction of an entire layout. (Sorry to those who have not and are planning on seeing the movie )

I looked but I couldn't find any. But I found this video. This is a real train wreack, and it isn't funny. Just shows what happens when you don't follow the signals.
