Hi, Peachy, although I am sorry that you had to have surgery, I am glad it went well and that you are recovering nicely. Building a new railroad is always exciting and your Dad's railroad is looking super. Great work! Have fun at York! Bill B.

[@dathanpoole871]

I'm glad you're surgery went well and welcome back. Your dad's layout looks awesome. I'm sure you all had a great time building it. See you at York, safe travels.

[@peachystrains8772]

Thank you! Can't wait for York!

[@therosejewelrailroad489]

Very nice. I have a lot of Menards buildings on my layout. Menards and Me are both from Wisconsin. So there buildings are mostly based on buildings in Wisconsin. I credit Menards for getting me back into the hobby. I was in the Menards store a few years back and seen all these detailed buildings at a good price. I am not a scratch builder. So the buildings inspired me.

[@peachystrains8772]

Thank you! We are also not scratch builders, so these buildings have been great!

[@LisbonRailProductionsandF1]

Magnificent catches of the model trains coming by and pass. Thumbs up. Keep up the perfect work, my friend, I just liked and subscribed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.

[@wayneantoniazzi2706]

Sorry to hear about your health issues Peachy but I'm glad to hear you're recovering nicely! Thank goodness, we NEED you! Hey, it's nice to see your dad's made the leap from HO to O Gauge! Hey, three-railers have three times the fun, right? That new layout's come together nicely and I see you followed my philosophy about layout building: Get the trains running as soon as you can! Everything else like adding buildings and scneicking can follow in due course. Getting trains going gives the builder as sense of accomplishment and it's a good morale-booster. I'm heading to York myself this week. Hopefully our courses will cross! Thanks for posting!

[@peachystrains8772]

I'm so happy to be back and can't wait to get to York! I'll be around all over so I'm sure we'll see each other!

[@obvious2886]

Looks really nice! I actually just made the switch to ho scale. If you are someone who is more interested in tinkering with the layout and more scenery work like grass and terrain sculpting along with realistic track plans it has been easier to do this on a budget than with o scale

This makes me happy. This will open the door a little for kids. HO isn't a good for little kids because you can't set it up and take it down and i hates carpet. O gauge has been SO expensive. All I've seen is Lionel selling for hundreds just for the loco.

Fine job! I love the Menard's stuff too but it depends on your bank doesn't it? LOL I have many of their buildings and cars but haven't gotten one of the locos yet although some friends have.

[@paulwilcox4056]

Hello, over 50 some years of O gauge trains I always found using insulation board seemed to make the trains louder. I did have 7 running at once but yours sounds fairly quiet. Are your trains as quiet as they sound in your video? I moved up to Standard Gauge and they are a little louder than O Gauge. Nice to see children working with their parents. Really nice layout, great job.

[@BryceRyan-q1z]

Is also a good or great idea to use Menards tracks and engines and rolling stock? Really thinking about it

[@Speedtail_Likes_Migs]

seeing people with a big o guage layout makes me feel broke but im still gratefull for my ho stuff the layout looks pretty good. hope you get a smooth recovery.

[@burlingtonbill1]

Menards stocks a few HO-scale versions of its O-scale buildings but my guess is they don't sell all that well. HO scale modelers, in general, seem to be mostly about building dioramas that traind MIGHT run through, along with scratch-building as much as possible.

That MAY happen. I have it on good authority (can't say who) Menards bought a lot of the old Williams tooling for freight cars and might have done so with others. We'll have to wait and see. No guarantees though.

[@johnandrus3901]

@@charlesmcclure5994 That would be a good thing if they did. Keep away from the big, scale cars and produce a line that is closer to the old AMT and 2500 series Lionel cars. I collect AMT, but it would be cool to have more options.
