Some more Info about my layout. I spent about a whole 50 pages of graph paper designing the layout aand it has evolved from the final drawing since 2018. The buildings all have names of my family and some close friends. There are 3 boxcars that I gave to my 3 families of grandkids to add grafitti, those are on the SF led train on the inner loop, a neighbor kid did the Pennslyvannia graffitti, and I did the Marvin the Martian on one car. For some reason Dave didn't show much of the downtown area on the southwest side of the layout where I have some scratchbuilt buildings. The blue house is a replication of the house I grew up in in central California. All my trains are run using RailPro and battery power, and lights are all converted to LED.

@tracynation28207 ай бұрын
Thanks for the reply. You have an incredible layout. I really like my model railroad, which is a combination of the Denver & Rio Grande Western, Great Western of Colorado, and Colorado & Southern, and some of the locomotives, freight and passenger cars, and scenery are approaching their 60th birthday, but it is more of a caricature of a railroad than a master model railroaders scenicked dream layout. While the track is quite realistic, a lot of the scenery, inside and outside, consists of cardboard boxes painted up like buildings by my nieces and nephews decades ago, or houses and stores made out of Legos or match and popsicle sticks by friends and other buildings made from blocks of wood, like a small church that mom made for me, and a warehouse that dad built, and while it looks pretty good overall, and there are areas that might look realistic in a picture, most of my layout doesn't qualify as super detailed. The only thing that might set my layout apart from another is that all of the locomotives and cars are quite detailed, and some of the older ones have a nice patina on the paint job, after all the years of operation, both inside and outside, that makes them look very realistic. Also, I had a huge family circle and lots of friends, and that usually meant TRAINS for Christmas and my birthday, and the gift trains, along with the ones that I bought, have really added up over the years. I'm not rich, but my layout has 330 train cars and 67 locomotives, and a lot of them were lonely, abused, broken, or forgotten about by their owners until I found, bought, (cheap) and repaired them. For the record, I bought or was gifted less than three cars some years, while other years were field years, with twelve or more cars and locomotives coming my way, the average, over the years, was less than one new or used car or locomotive every two months since 1965, a few of which cost me a buck or two or a trade for my Sparky services. The one unique thing that might be interesting is that everything is on live rails, not a storage cart or in a cabinet. In addition to two yards and lots of sidings, I have one wall with live double tracked storage and display areas, which employs 10% grades and switchbacks to go from one shelf to another, floor to ceiling, sort of like a stacked yard on the walls. Two locomotives and three cars fit on the switchbacks, and it can take some time and operation to set up a train or just retrieve a car or locomotive from there, unless I use my 0-5-0 hand switchers. Cheers and hello again from the Tracy Mountain Railway in Colorado. 💙 T.E.N.

Nice. I would love to know more about how the elevated track was constructed. I struggle with the ground base that won't wobble and the upper track supports that won't take a lot of carpentry or money. Their constructions looks interesting. Any article or website guidance for it would be great. Thank you for the video
@GardenTrainsDave8 ай бұрын
A company in Phoenix, Arizona, Eagle Wings, built the elevated track supports. I tried to find them in several advertiser sources but could not locate them. You might try a KZbin search or search other publications. If I locate them, I'll respond to your request again. Thanks for visiting our Channel.

The tracks you use should depend on the elements they will be exposed to and, in my opinion, always look for reviews. Quality is important as are the ties.
