[@KIWIT4]

Nice to see your work. I waiting for the next Video. Good luck.

[@baileycollins7799]

I’m excited too!

[@anthonycollins4747]

Looking good Bailey. Keep up the good work. Like the last name. 🚂🚂

[@baileycollins7799]

Thanks Anthony, will get the garden railway complete bit by bit!

[@mydisneyparkmemories1427]

Great job so far. Save your knees, I purchased "Thunderbolt" no slip kneepads (Amazon) to use while working on my outdoor railroad. Keep up the good work.

[@baileycollins7799]

Thanks for the suggestion. Will have a look into that as there’s still a lot to be done!!

[@mydisneyparkmemories1427]

I just noticed a Passenger car in your yard. Nice!

[@baileycollins7799]

Thank you.

I bet you couldn't do this without those adorable doggos! This is so fascinating to see. My uncle had a huge HO layout in his barn for years. Did you build this originally? I ask because you look awfully young to have built such an old layout.

[@baileycollins7799]

Isn’t that right haha! That’s awesome, no it was my grand parents that built it, I’m just here to restore it.

[@rowdysgirlalways]

@@baileycollins7799 I love that you are restoring it. I bet your grandparents do too. It looks like they built a great foundation for it. Are you putting grass in when it's done? No insult intended, but your lawn looks a bit tired...says the woman who lives near 3 of the Great Lakes in Michigan. We generally have a high water table here, such that one simply decides how deep to drill the well, not where to drill it.

[@baileycollins7799]

They are definitely enjoying the process and yes I’d be putting grass in and hopefully a lot of nice scenery, just trying to find the time to get things done but love the feedback, thank you!

[@DaveGardner64]

Looks great. Any Drone footage of the layout.

[@baileycollins7799]

Now that’s a good idea! Maybe one day.

[@hanayama9079]

Hi Bailey, the layout looks really fantastic and if don’t mine sharing the total price of everything. The tracks and all the hardware and the time it took to build. Thanks!

[@baileycollins7799]

I don’t really have any idea in terms of pricing, it was built originally by my Grandparents and now I’m just trying to get it to look the way it was.

[@hanayama9079]

No problem Bailey and thanks for the reply back to me. Good luck and stay safe.

[@timothyboles6457]

That layout looks massive! Are you using track power or dead rail? Looking good so far. Looks like alot left to do yet

[@baileycollins7799]

It’s a dead rail, I’m putting LiPo batteries in all my locos and making them remote controlled. There’s so so much, but will get there slowly.

@@baileycollins7799 I use LIPO 3S batteries - fine even for 20V locomotives because you are removing the rolling resistance from track and wheel contacts. I use Micron Radio Control units - transformed the enjoyment of the railway operation.
