    You're such a positive person Bryce, thank you for showing us the Tiny Houses around the globe for the rest of us.

    I love how much Pam honored her grandad’s memory by building this tiny caboose home! What a great way to show how much those car rides to count the cars and check for a caboose , meant to her.
  • @jeanpitt7401
    Bryce sure is has positive attitude and makes the people feel good about their tiny homes and he brings out all the fine details of their tiny home. I like watch his tour of tiny homes.

    7:56 I LOVE that white bathroom sink. It looks so NICE.
  • I thought it was a real train car until Bryce got into the tour. It is a tiny house built to look like a caboose and the railroad theme is wonderful. It is an awesome idea.
  • @lilacDaisy111
    Had to stop 1/3 in to say how much I LOVE your new production technique of playing the owner's answers, without airing the questions. So professional, and it lets me jump into the "story" as if I were there. Great job.

    My dad was employed by the Railways in 1900s and used to do a lot of work in the bush. We were little kids and as a family, the train would push our caboose into a siding where we would live for several weeks. This was in Southern Africa and my brother and I were little bush babies. When it was time to go home, a train would come and pick us up and take us back to the station. I have such fond memories of those days!

    What a brilliant idea to give people a taste of tiny house living, before they put the time/financial commitment! Thanks to the Tiny Digs team! This is going to be helpful to so many people. How I wish I had money. I would try this in a second!

    Now I know where I’m going to stay if I’m ever visiting Portland.
  • @flashtread2014
    Tiny Houses always teach us to live and appreciate the little we have, Infact it reduces greed and encourages living.

    This story is so close to home. My father left when I was just 3 years old and looked to my big brother and grandfather to fill in the gaps of a then 70s childhood. Big brother loves trains and would sneekly play on his model train set. <3

    Bryce, has the best channel, and good narrator/host too. I love the beauty of this tiny houses, the facilities also.
  • @Yesica1993
    I love the yellow house! (I'm a train fan as well.) The nails/spikes with the numbers are just charming. And the bathroom is to die for. The style of that sink! If I only had money I'd hire her to design a home for me!
  • My Father and Uncle were really big into model railroads . This definitely brings back found memories of when I was kid and they loved the trains .
  • That's an interesting idea for a hotel. The caboose is so cute and, I love the yellow. That's one of my favorite colors and would like it in my house. I wish I could have seen the rest of the houses but, I guess I'll have to go there and, stay a night.
  • What a cute tiny. I was recently in Amsterdam and stayed at a converted train hotel one night. There's such a special feeling in unique places like this open to the public. I truly enjoy places like this.
  • @duane4972
    Only thing missing is the little pot-bellied wood stove. Otherwise so much rail road related detail ! You can't help but love it.
  • What a great caboose, and a little touch of what is getting to be really old history now. For anyone to remember they need only go visit.
  • @shannono8397
    Love her, her story & family...what an incredible place! The details and way each one must feel is a really different experience each time! Just love how they've created such a vibe!
