Wow, the layout looks great! And a great choice of location to model, unfortunately the branch line to San Saba from Lometa was just abandoned as soon as I was able to make it out there, but driving along the entire route really put into perspective how spectacular the line really was. Such a shame what happened to it through its multiple changes of ownerships and present day challenges of finding new customers and keeping the long term ones. Gladly subscribing to see more of the layout! And who knows, maybe it'll come back to life someday again.

This is great and all but you must have a huge model railroad to run a train for 10 minutes from start to end.

Thx. Not huge, but with double deck and slower, more prototypical speeds, you can stretch it out

Tried watching and wanted to let you know my reason for the thumbs down and not subscribing. The good stuff: beautiful layout and scenery with very nice rolling stock and locomotives. Also good that there isn’t lots of camera shaking and moving around so fast that the viewer gets dizzy - that was performed very well, thank you. The bad stuff: It was a little boring in comparison to many other similar channels I subscribed to - very quiet, no music, no dialogue, just pretty scenes but very quiet and slow almost putting me to sleep with such a lack of even minimal pizazz , not trying to be mean but just so slow and boring…

I've delayed creating my HO layout for several years, and when I finally thought I had the right house to build it, had to make another move, and so I sold more than half of my motive power, maybe 70% as everything is boxes, and now only have a small spare bedroom to work with. However, after looking at your layout design, and talking with my wife, without even mentioning your video to her, she suggested a split level design. So, I am going to maybe start with a small staging area, like one that is near the Fullerton, CA Amtrak station, so I can enjoy seeing a passenger train on the siding closest to the station, and watch road switchers, pass by on the mainline. So, much appreciated, and * subscribed *

Might be a dumb question, but you mentioned that not alot of the scenery has changed. You made small changes or additions? Do you still enjoy the layout when you get to run your equipment?

I do for sure, however it’s a seasonal thing for me. Scenery has certainly improved, for the next step is to add the trackside details.

@glennfoster2423 11 ай бұрын
Very interesting and great work, especially the equipment weathering. One suggestion, on the ends of many TOFC loads (but not all), the front and rear ends have vertical streaks of a dirty grime and muddy look, possibly a result of residue from miles and miles of riding a flatcar. This small bit would not be (and is not) noticed by an operating crew busy with watching overall runnin, signals, speed, rules, anticipating what is next on the list, communicating with the dispatcher, etc. (What color of ballast? What fence, field, type of bridge, etc.?) A crew is usually too busy running to notice the nuance of the the surrounding landscape. Operation of a train is very different from observation of the train and the landscape around it.

Absolutely good point. Currently, of my domestic containers and trailers have some degree of the mud kick up on the back doors. Some are very dramatic. Shipping containers to a lesser degree, but can still look the same.
