[@dougfinn]

Not boring at all. Liked seeing how you build your layout. Looks great. I’m getting lots of great ideas from guys like you. Thanks for sharing.

Wow. First class layout work. Thanks for sharing. Johan

[@GunMetalJeep45]

Amazing job!

[@pleiadas]

Very nice layout. The workmanship is amazing.

[@JolietZett]

Layout looks really fantastic. The roundhouse is great, and the extra details you added really kick it up. The overall detail you have added really makes a difference. Tell your dad he should make the next video and let you do the yardwork next time.

[@Laidoffsick]

LMAO....My Dad doesn't do his yard work, he has a gardener just like I do!

[@mjc6184]

A fine display of craftsmanship. Great layout, thank you for sharing!

Amazing work! Looks great! Deryk

[@Trucktech80]

looks great, you and your father do nice work!

[@i-am-a-dino13]

I am so jealous of all the space you have for your layout. My basement is too small to fit an O gauge so I have to stick with a small 8' x 10' HO layout. Your layout looks great! I am looking forward to seeing more updates from you!

[@Porschedude8]

Awesome work & congrats on your two years!! May there be many more!!

[@johnnyrailer]

Awesome layout one of my favs. Always looking for your updates. Hey you going to do any how tos? Would like to see how you paint and weather track and ballast. Keep up the great work you and your dad do. Later, John

[@Laidoffsick]

Hey John, I've done some "how to's" in the OGR Forum with pictures, but never really done any on video.

Subbed! :) Thanks for sharing! :)

[@master_the_mind]

You added roof vents to the top of your round house kit so the smoke would escape out the vent. Do you remember where you got those roof vents from, Many thanks Also cant wait till the next update.

[@Laidoffsick]

Joe Mellen The roof vents in the front are just for looks, they do not go through the roof. The vent stacks in the back are from Crescent Locomotive Works. The kit came with some pvc parts that I made but decided not to use them. Plus the ones I did use have the hoods as you could see inside.

beautiful

[@karensickler6344]

Cool

[@motomarauder8802]

what track are you using? great layout

[@Laidoffsick]

Gargraves with Ross switches

[@motomarauder8802]

I thought so, it just looks better than the Gargraves I have seen on other layouts

[@Laidoffsick]

+Scorpions Covers... most people don't paint the track. leaving those tall over sized rails bright and shiny just makes them stick out even more. some paint, ballast, and weathering will make all the difference on any 3 rail track... especially when you have hundreds of feet of it.
