My HO scale Traction layout, "Wiley City"

[@dmcry600]

FANTASTIC!!!!! I love the old Traction equipment, and you have captured the look and feel of the Juice Line!!!!!

[@yardhog]

Wow, great modeling and nice touch with the flagman and vehical stopped and then gone for the line car.

[@carstop]

Andy That is fantastic. Such a great job on everything. It makes me feel like I'm watching the whole scene from years ago. Jeff Horn

[@13thBear]

That is so cool! You've done a fine job of capturing an old traction line. It's a lesser-tried aspect of model railroading. I like the South Shore & South Bend traction line in northern Indiana and I wish I had the wherewithal to build it in HO scale.

[@craigtruesdell9436]

I agree, very well done!

[@alcopower5710]

Absolutely stunning job👍 thanks for sharing

[@DavidMcElwain]

Your layout may be the trigger to switch to a traction layout! An excellent video of a wonderfully detailed layout.

[@Willysmb44]

Wow, good video and great modeling!

[@edjarolin8054]

Excellent modeling and a unique subject.

[@reddustdiecastmodelrail1499]

Very nice video ! Great layout and loco and rollingstock ! Thanks for sharing ! Martin

[@MrKWiley918]

Takes me back to when I last was in Wiley City....

[@stevenmanchester2104]

Very clever use of camera cuts to give the illusion of people actually moving (the flagman for example) and cutting away to hide reverseing the catanery pick ups

[@DavidMcElwain]

I especially like how the vehicle which appears to be waiting at the grade crossing at 1:40 is no longer waiting at 2:50, talk about a well crafted video.

[@thomaspinto1111]

Good job !

[@tomschmidt3165]

Terrific. Loved it. Thanks for posting.

[@trainsignguy]

Nice job! It all looks great and our General Store kit has never looked better.

[@mbta3322]

Great modeling. It's good to see the motor earning it's keep.

[@ammoguy5]

[@Ken4trains]

Awesome layout!

[@everettthepetractionguy4222]

[@MaddogTyler]

[@billw.9743]

[@davidfritsch3321]

[@Crookedriverandeasternrr]

Wow I know this is an old video but I just found your channel. Great layout. I liked and subbed to ya! 😃

[@mattlowe5881]

Reminds me of the Iowa Traction.

[@tmackinator]

Very nice video, Steeple cab power is my favorite traction power.-TM

[@javedahmad7513]

excellent.

[@gianhauenstein9003]

Amazing

[@AndyGautrey]

EDIT- I think it's Shine On by Terry Devine-King & Lincoln Grounds.

[@cobra3050]

Nice

[@MrRLN2010]

Real Nice video.

[@AndyGautrey]

I was going to ask you to guess, but that'd be mean. It's 6' long, and just over 12" wide.

[@AndyGautrey]

@trainsignguy Thanks, I'm looking forward to building more Blair Line kits in the future.

[@javedahmad7513]

well paid attention to detail. traffic moving etc.

[@JonathanMarkiw]

Realistic Speeds, Great.

[@cvgeeps]

Well you done good its perfect

[@AndyGautrey]

@cvgeeps I built it from drawings in Sept. 1985 RMC. My Steeplecab 298 was in Jan. 2010 Model Railroader.

[@Paul34Grand]

Congrats, Andy. Wonderful detail & exc switching moves. Loved the fruit orchard in the background. Are you concerned that the flagman's arms will get tired? :)

[@gianhauenstein9003]

Nice locs

[@ChiefCabioch]

Tell them guys standing around to get busy....lol

[@JonathanMarkiw]

How do you keep your trolley wire so taut ? Super atmosphere.

[@cvgeeps]

Nice layout the Line Car was very cool looking did you build it or was it brass??

[@AndyGautrey]

Err, I don't know Bob...!! It's something "Copyright free" suggested by KZbin.

[@littleevan99]

Very nice! How do you keep the trolley poles from coming off the wire?

[@TwoHandsNY]

Nice work!!! What the total length of the layout?

[@JCmilwaukee]

Is this wire powerd?

[@trainsplanes5416]

Did you use a roadbed?

[@andygautrey298]

Yes, I used 4mm cork, but a lot of the surrounding ground areas are built up to track level because such a lightly laid line wouldn't have noticeable ballast shoulders.
