Excellent show, Mike and Andy. Splitrock...Thomas, I'm sure there would be a good demand for a HomeShops, Splitrock Mining Co. ..Rapido M420W. Everybody likes those...sxxy...Alcos. Something different...always good!

I have learned so much from Boomer and everyone else. Thank you

Great looking wiring Mike. I love my WAGOs...

I ALWAYS enjoy Boomer. I am a bit older, but we share a background in military and figures and dioramas and have both modeled for many years. I still always get something new to try from every time I watch Boomer. His exploration of artist media and his willingness to try new techniques are inspiring to "break out of the box". I tend to regard Boomer as a friend that I just haven't met in person yet.

I bought one of the FM models Kenworth trucks from Intercity... beautiful model. Nice kit..fast service. After Boomer featured it

KZbin is the largest platform for Podcasts now over all other platforms and growing rapidly. Not Apple , not Spotify. KZbin! People no longer listen to radio podcasts like they used to but rather watch video podcasts. KZbin is fast becoming the go to platform for all video podcasts according to Edison Research. 😁

Boomer, The 88 and 3/4 year old gentleman is my Dad's best friend since they were both in kindergarten. They both are train nuts, both of their houses are filled with trains and all they ever talk about is "Boomer". He was just up at the hospital to see My Dad who's currently in the ICU and is very critical but not so bad that he can't watch you on my iPad that I brought in for him. The guy who sent you the letter and the trains couldn't wait to call and tell my Dad. Thanks for all you do to keep those two great best friends smiling and happy on a daily basis. Tom ❤

#Intercity, love the shelf layout Boomer. I have the benchwork in place around the room. Working on a plan for continuous running and switching as well

At my club, Grand Rapids Model Historical Society, we have a full scale build of SS City of Midland that we include in our Op Sessions on our Pere Marquette layout. It was the first scatch build model for one of our former members

This is the longest KZbin video that I've ever watched, but it didn't *feel* long at all. It was informative, inspirational, and *entertaining*. Like many here, I've been a Boomer subscriber for a few years. And I've opened up the Postmoderne Modelworks channel in another tab. I thank you all.

Excellent!! Been following Boomer for almost 3yrs now. Extremely talented, knowledgeable and his enthusiasm for the hobby is infectious. Learned a lot from him, he's a pro level model builder (was in in professionally for many years) and his skills have few equals.

The problem with Boomer is that it's hard to comment without being a fan boy. A man crush on a fellow hobbyist. 😂 But when credit is due, you gotta pay up!! Gladly! Dude is an artist, craftsman, and generous with knowledge. Learned a ton from him and many others in this greatly diverse hobby. Cheers! Thank you all for making the hobby knowledge available!

Big fan of Boomer. Love that he shares in detail all of his techniques to build an amazing layout.

Boomer is brilliant. Thank you for featuring him and River Rd at length. He brings back fond memories of a family trip to Vancouver. Tsawwassen, from where we took the BC ferry to Victoria, has a major railroad presence.

I model all sides, not only what you will hopefully see! It’s a model, it needs to be fully finished,. And my experience learns that if you like filming and shooting pics on it you will notice a lot more than when you are only operating it or just use it to stash your train collection on. But even if you’re not someone will someday tell you that you missed a few spots and that hurts.

Fun show to watch Good job all.

As always, another great show guys! Thanks for taking the time to do this, what an awesome opportunity for people to gain some knowledge!

thanks Andy, Mike & Boomer... just watching the rerun for the third time... such an awesome show... I love the behind the scenes look

great show, everyone seems very excited, Boomer is the best

#Intercity !!!!

I hate that exactrail is gone... shame!!!

Checked out your sponsorship for tonight. In my fav bar now lol

Hi how are you doing today

but doesn't this introduce many more possible sources of current interruptions by cutting the bus wire at every track feeder?

Its why a hump yard works...

Kansas City is a fantastic city. There is so much to love about it and I miss living there.

Thanks Mike! I run Little WORLD Charity and am learning on the fly about setting up a 400 square foot O scale display. My question is, using 14 gauge for my bus wire, and 18 gauge for feeder wires, can I put two feeder wires into one connection hole (and thus get two feeders coing from one connection hole)?

Well, that Acelor-Mittal steel deal with AIM makes perfect sense. I was wondering what would happen to AIM in southern Ontario after Acelor-Mittal get their electric arc furnace up and running. That furnace is going to be gobbling up all scrap metal in the province. Good thing they control the network.

"...last layout" & everyone laughs ( :

easy i just opened up a number of boxes.

Looking at the Southwestern Railroad, I'm wondering if this is the T-Trak project layout MRR is doing. A few of your screenshots look like previews of two modules they did.

There was a green aligator

Good evening guys

Great job on the shortline of the show Mike! My choice for the next shortline would be Western New York and Pennsylvania. Under the Climate Change for now🤒. Great show as always, Mike & Andy.

Talk about an area where I live……. I’m under 5 miles from Altoona,PA! I have Horseshoe Curve, Altoona Operations with lots of Rail Fanning. We had the Sam Rea Car Shops in Hollidaysburg,PA. Norfolk Southern is now the major player in the area. Lots of the PRR History and the Railroaders Memorial Museum is here and now in Mid September there is an N Scale Weekend Exposition at the Blair County Convention Center. Several videos are on KZbin for the last few N Scale Expositions for 2023 and 2024.❤ I just returned to the hobby after a 30 plus year hiatus from Model Railroading. I was thankful to KZbin for recommending I watch Roy Smith’s N Scale Union Pacific Evanston Sub Division Layout (Unfortunately, Roy passed away in August 2023), DJsTrains, some other channels, this Channel (Got to see Boomer). So, in the Fall of 2023, I got interested in getting back to wanting to run some trains in my basement, so I got my background walls painted Sky Blue with some “Rattle Can Clouds” and a desert type theme. Going to have a 13’ by 20’ area for a Freelance Operation in N Scale using KATO Unitrack. I have kept up my yearly subscription to Model Railroader since 1984. Man have a lot changed since the 1970s when I first got into the basic 4’ by 8’ sheet of 3/4” plywood HO layout with Atlas Snap Track. A lot of challenges face me. The downside is that I was diagnosed with Stage 2 Pancreatic Cancer in 2018, had surgery in 2019 and been on Chemotherapy for 5.5 years with on 2 weeks and off 2 weeks on what my Doctor calls “A Wiff” of the treatment drug. I wish I had more stamina and energy to pursue my dream to soon run some trains. Love the channel and panel of participants. If anyone reads this and can offer suggestions on what DCC Equipment I should consider from your recommendations and what Engines and Decoders to use, I would greatly appreciated and welcome your input. Again, I will be using N Scale KATO Unitrack. I’m working on a track plan that would be a layout at 42” in height, typical benchwork of 2’ by 8’ or shorter lengths of “Domino Sections” that I discovered from Model Railroader Magazine as made by David Barrow and his Cat Mountain & Santa Fe Layout. Allen Keller produced a VHS Video in his series of Great Model Railroads back in the 70s or 80s. David Barrow’s layout being featured in Volume 17. Some “Shorts” can be seem on KZbin. Thanks!!!

What’s with the AtLP stamp? Is he affiliated somehow?

I still would like to order one or 2.

Bummer hearing about the ingot cars. I put some on preorder. I see these passing thru on CN freights all the time

Hobby is no longer affordable, unless you restore old used examples.

Lorne is wearing a headset, but is it actually connected? This show was really hard to watch as I could hear Andy's and Joey's voice coming through Lorne's speaker. Also when he was type type typing, it sounded like a train going by. And Andy's voice and mouth were out of sync.

Great show guys! I am a new subscriber to your channel! Cheers Brian

looking to start back in the hobby when I retire. in N scale any suggestions . I sold all my H.O. stuff. :(

Love the T-shirt Mike.
