I know this is an old video, but I just found the channel. I’ve been thinking about getting into the hobby and have been watching a lot of videos. This is by far the best video I’ve found so far. Of course I had to subscribe, now I have to watch more. Lol

Very nice contemporary layout. Impressive, in fact. But no, the Texas Eagle does NOT run to LA daily and hasn't for decades, if ever. It runs daily from Chicago to San Antonio daily only. Take it from one who knows.

I think for the next level of sound decoders, you should be able to bluetooth the sound from the locomotive to a bose soundbar underneath the layout for better immersion. WITHOUT the need for wifi. That tinny little toyish sound from the tiny speakers doesn't do it for me anymore...
@AllenCNW4415 күн бұрын
The sounds from the Amtrak loco, especially the horn & bell, were the most realistic I’ve heard on models in a long time - too many “sound systems” just don’t “sound” right…

Art in motion. The only thing that would make this better is to actually have vehicles parked at the grade crossing when the train is rolling through, otherwise it seems more toy like an unbelievable when you see vehicles a few hundred feet from the crossing just sitting there doing nothing, it looks quite strange.

Holy smokes, that subtle dip in the rails right after the grade crossing in the opening shot gives the train such a realistic bounce, you always see that kind of thing around real grade crossings.

Honestly if it weren’t for the automobiles throwing off the realism this could easily pass as a real train video in some clips.

Interesting in hearing how Amtrack has priority. I heard the unlike the UK which prioritises passenger, freight often has the priority in the US as it earns the railroad companies more revenue. So did I hear this wrong from another YT channel?
@themigmadmarine5 күн бұрын
Laws changed a couple years back to require that Amtrak legally always has priority, but this doesn't necessarily shake out in practice for various reasons.

You obviously have not riden on Amtrak if you think fright trains pull over on a siding in order to let Amtrack by.

Correct. They are required to. However, many modern freight trains are larger than the siding and cannot make way.
