On March 5th of 2022, the first video that "SIDETRACK PRODUCTIONS" ever made was released. "The Trains of Missouri" was originally made by Connor for "EnderTrain Rail Productions"; however, once "Team EnderTrain Studios" died out the "Connor" channel picked up the pieces. Thus, "SIDETRACK PRODUCTIONS" was born. Since that fateful day in March of 2022, "SIDETRACK PRODUCTIONS" and "SIDETRACK PRODUCTIONS+" have gained 5,531 views and counting. Thank you to all of you who have supported me and "SIDETRACK PRODUCTIONS" over the last year! I hope you continue to support me for many years to come!
