BIG THINGS are happening for this channel so I wanted to give an update on several things:
-Disney Content: yes, I'm back at it after all these years. The Disney content is really driving the channel forward like never before, and I'm gonna use the opportunity to expand my horizons.
-Queen Mary/Ocean Liner fans, I know it's been a while since we've done a podcast or since I've posted a history video. Extreme heat has prevented me from recording narration or hosting live streams. We recorded a podcast as a memorial to Commodore Hoard's recent passing, but the audio was ruined, and the podcast couldn't be posted. Ocean Liner/Queen Mary content will continue, but it will be less frequent. However, Shilo and I plan to create a new "Queen Mary's Lost Places" series, and we plan to continue the "Queen's Cross Podcast". So stay tuned!
-Steam Train/Rail content will continue on my original channel Alex the Railroader. I know I've said that a lot over the last two years, but this time it's happening. I've started preparing my model railroad layout to return to working order, and that channel will host periodic livestreams to talk about trains. Disneyland Railroad related content will be featured on both that channel and this one.
-Speaking of Disneyland Railroad, I've been working with the creator of the Disneyland Railroad Simulator (2017), Preston, to update and bring to life a more high-definition and detailed version of the Disneyland Railroad Simulator, I've been building computer models of all the passenger cars and soon I'll begin work on the park's buildings. So far, the plan is to try to replicate Disneyland from each decade, but of course, the main focus is on the operations of the trains. I think you'll find it really crazy how beautiful the trains/locomotives are turning out! I'll keep people informed with updates on both channels as that project progresses.
-I'm planning to build a new game using the popular Roblox game. I don't want to spill too many details too soon, but it will be an explorable world based on all the interesting subjects you see on this channel. Ocean Liners, Trains, and beautiful historic cities like San Francisco or New Orleans, and even other parts of the world will be a part of this new "world" I plan to make. There will be lots to see and do, and because Roblox is available on multiple devices, almost anyone will be able to easily visit and see the place I'm building. I'll make updates about that too, on this channel.
-All of this is part of my goal to grow and update this channel so I can do all the traveling I've been talking about over the years. I want to travel to bring more content to you guys, see other countries, and even see other Disney Parks, and bring that content to you guys...but money has always been the issue to overcome, so all these efforts I'm making to expand my content and offerings will be to reach that goal of traveling.
-My channel turned 9 years old back on August 6th, I missed it, I was going to write a post or make a video, but I was incredibly busy. Thank you, everyone, for all your support, for watching videos from this geek, and for always showing me the good side of humanity. These past 9 years, this channel has brought me so much happiness, and it's improved my life, and I hope to keep providing you with the awesome information and content you love to see. Thank you all!

Sorry that I've been absent lately. A few days ago, I had a very severe case of food poisoning. 12 hours of agony, 72 hours of weakness, dehydration, and soreness. On the first night, I had vomited so often and so hard that I popped blood vessels in my eyes and on the skin of my face. I'm feeling much better now, but am very weak, barely started eating again. Trying to drink liquids. Yes, I know I look terrible lol. Next week I should be back and will announce an exciting new project.

We recorded another episode of the "Queen's Cross Podcast" with a guest, but it ended up being almost 2 hours long! I could edit it down to 1 hour, but it would cut out so much GOOD conversation. What should I do?

I'll be on the @SignsofAmusement channel tomorrow (Saturday) to discuss my thoughts about my recent return to Disneyland after 5 years! It's an awesome podcast, the details are in the image below:

Has YouTube notified or shown you that I posted a short film called "QUEEN MARY: Alone At Sea"?
60 - 14
Please watch my new short film, and if you enjoy it, show it to friends and family, repost it on social media, give the video itself a like. YouTube is not promoting my channel or videos, and I could really use YOUR help to keep this free content going. watch video on watch page

I'm a history fanatic, my channel focuses on the history of various subjects from the age of steam.
My channel is a safe space for ALL. You CAN express ANY opinion you want, but treat others with humanity, respect, and decency.

DISCLAIMER: I am not a University-educated historian, Alex the Historian was a nickname I got while working at Disneyland as a tour guide. After 8 years of using it as a stage name for my channel, it would be detrimental to the channel to suddenly change the name.
