Lovely layout with a lot of details 🤩 the backdrop on the walls brings a good depth 👍 congratulations 👏

Great layout, I followed your construction on facebook, and we interacted a little bit about construction and planning. So cool!

[@narrowgaugejoe4189]

I really love all your videos. Your railroad is a true work of art and craftsmanship. Keep up the amazing work.

Great video Dave. What an awesome layout. The details are spectacular. I look forward to meeting you on Back on Track. Steve.

That is a great model railroad.

[@Sn3Modeler]

Hey Dave, that was GREAT...I thoroughly enjoyed catching up on your latest projects and progress!

[@OtterCreek]

Great update Dave, loved the real ashes at the water tank. Looking forward to a run-by or two!!

[@WrightCraig01]

Excellent modeling!!

[@marklewis298]

Thanks for the update, Dave. Always something new and inspiring to see on your layout videos.

[@ModelRailroading]

Beautiful layout, Dave! Love your work! …Claude

Beautiful layout.... Looks like a great layout room to be in... It is up there with some of the best RGS layouts and I've been to several of the top Sn3 layouts. This layout makes a great case for the smaller HOn3 than Sn3. May I someday be at an event where your layout is on tour!

I have become absolutely obsessed with smaller steamers and especially the early 1900’s (not a fan of transition era) love this layout!

Great update Any upcoming videos on your module. When will you start planning the wye at Rico. Chuck

[@jeremyreed5236]

Great video Dave - where are your backdrops from….did not catch the name?

[@vollmerdp]

LARC Products

[@charlesheinlein1923]

Nice update Anything new on your module. When does the wye go in (lol) Chuck

[@jeepman8346]

What is your process for weathering track? Everything looks great!

[@vollmerdp]

You can read all about that exact subject in the 2021 HOn3 Annual from White River Publishing! I did a track weathering article in addition to shooting the cover photo.

[@SethJohnson0606]

Fantastic, Dave. Did you scratchbuild the water closet next to the Placerville depot? Or has someone made a kit?

[@vollmerdp]

Nah, that was a quick scratchbuild.

[@SethJohnson0606]

@@vollmerdp Nice. I’m modeling Placerville, too, and I guess I’ll also end up scratchbuilding the WC. I have the Blazek sketch in RGS Story 1 to go on, but it doesn’t include dimensions. I was going to size it based on an assumption about the height of the doors. Is that how you did it, too? Or did you find dimension data somewhere?

[@vollmerdp]

@@SethJohnson0606 Yep. It was relatively easy to scale based on a 6' 8" door. I did the same thing using the unscaled Blazek drawing in the RGS Story.
