Should of let the crew stop for some KFC.

Absolutely beautiful!! I pray to get my layout that big one-day with all the support here.

Nice video. Thank you. Can you let me know what type of white and red paint you were using please...🤠

I love these videos. This is model railroad rail fanning at its best! 😁

The close up pictures like that look realistic as hell. Well done.

I can almost see Kevin walking home with his stolen toothbrush.

A more involved and exciting derailment. In other words the kind of derailment that leads to all the train cars derailing.

Imagine having to spend hours cleaning small bits of coal off the layout after a derailment.

Too many freight cars to handle for one layout

Great video. Thanks for making and sharing...

You should consider selling videos of your operations.

What a trip. Amazingly scale artistry. This was not easily done. DB

Did you shrink an entire district or did you create this honesty I don’t really care it’s still amazing

How do you water the paint down so it doesn,t streak and glob up when brushing?

very nice layout

Cars were to light

The rubber band effect

Very helpful video, but the audio is a bit hard to hear, so here are some clarifications based on my experiences, and from common hobby knowledge. NSmodeler24, jump in if I've got anything wrong. Note: all the paints and thinner mentioned are enamel-based. If you want to use acrylics, everything would have to be water-based. steps: 1. He says they painted the plastic model pieces first with red spray paint, which is enamel based. Lots of people use Rust-oleum flat red primer, which looks a lot like brick. Krylon also makes red colors. 2. He says they spray painted the red brick color with Krylon Matte Finish after the red spray paint and before the mortar is applied. Testor's Dullcoate will work, too. Let each coat dry for at least 12 hours between steps. 3. The white paint he mentions is "Floquil" brand which is an oil-based enamel paint. Tamiya lacquer base paint would work as well. They thin it 50/50 with paint thinner (AKA mineral spirits or white spirits in the UK). .

Do you use NCE power cab?

I wish I would have found this video BEFORE i tried to paint my brick building 😭. Thank you

Thanks very helpful

awesome video.

Incredible job, it looks so realistic I could watch it for hours 👍👍

Not one single detail was missed in this layout

WASH ME 🤣

I have this exact same scaletrains locomotive road number and all, would this work on that one aswell, as far as the windows popping out and handrail removal?

That is a GREAT idea for making "bad track". I gotta try it. 👍 .

Listening to the dispatcher, for all I could understand, he could have been directing traffic in South Africa or making predictions on the Superbowl!!

I love your videos and sound. The equipment and scenery are superb. HO scale rail fanning at its best. Keep them coming!

i have a l shape but i have n scale

How much you want for the layout

Wonderful stuff as always. Are there drawings/diagrams/maps current or past of the Asheville and Old Fort rail yards? I moved to the area and thought that might be a nice project to model.

Always center beams

Your story is awesome..you and your dad have vision and ability to create its somewhere out here prototypical scenes. ...winter scene is special.

i would honestly like to have realistic function to train cars and maybe props even. like taking gravel from one place to another.

Very nice like it😊

I use to go here all the time when I lived in santee, san diego, last time I was there was 2017 and they have done so much since then.. love the creek they added.. thank you for sharing.

That is the coolest setup for a rotary dumper. You really should get it marketed. I know I would buy it!

Awesome Video! You should put a small camera on the front of the locomotive. That would make for some great footage. Very Well done! This video randomly played after one of the videos I was watching. Glad it did!

Excellent layout. How many cars were loaded...surely not 90-100?

Fantastic job with the scenery. When I played the video, it looked like the train had a slight forward jerking motion that never ceased. Was this a video recording issue or a train control problem?

Man I just Love your layout, the attention to detail is out standing and realistic as Hell. Thanks for taking us on a run. Look forward to the next one.. 👊👊👊

This is a layout no way¡!! Awesome...

Most interesting... Most ineresting! I always wondered how difficult it would be to renumber a loco, and it seems you answered the question for me! I hope to put this info to good use someday on a Big Boy to renumber it to a fantasy number 4025.

Thank you for the video. This is a fantastic demonstration of what some extra time can result in. Growing up in a railroad family in a railroad town, I see trains all the time and have been a railfan for most of my life, albeit no longer a modeler. I get to live vicariously through videos like this.

Say, how wide are the curves on the steep grade? Just curious.

Keep up then great work! I love seeing these videos, they help me keep the fire hot for the hobby!

Looks great !!

Cop car at the Donut Shop!
