I too was excited to see what happened with the N scale layout. And really looking forward to the conclusion.

[@ironwolfusa]

Ken, you never cease to amaze me. Your talent is crazy good. I wish I was that talented. PLEASE keep up this great work!

[@mattyt1250]

Where's the N Scale one you started.

[@lloydb6637]

I like the HOn3 stuff, but still wonder what happened to the N=scale layout you started well over a year ago ...

[@jackoesterlejr.3454]

Awesome video! I love how you built the HON3 layout! It turned out great! I love it when Bachmann shows off their new products! I love the short bay caboose of MoPac! Just love it! I also love the runby's! This is "The Best Hobby In The World" Till Next Time! MoPac Jack "Stay Safe & Always Keep It On The Rails" Rock N' Roll Forever..

So yer tellin' me people who model the RGS are in a cult??! I knew it!! ...you don't want to mess with the cult!! 😁😁 You truly do have the best job on the entire planet, Ken! The backdrop mountains out of foam is simply brilliant. Convincing backdrops are too often overlooked on so many model railroads and one of my pet peeves. Some of the best scenery and detail on many layouts has been ruined by bad backdrops IMHO.

[@larrydee8859]

Fantastic diorama and modeling skills Ken! Very informative building video!

[@cprtrain]

Super video. Well done Ken.

[@dexterdog62]

Still waiting for the continuation of that unfinished N Scale layout….

Is Blackstone still in business ? I haven't been able to obtain Blackstone stuff in years.

[@JeffShultz]

Blackstone is part of Soundtraxx. I think their last major release was in about 2019, IIRC. Their last locomotive project ran into resistance from the Chinese factories who weren't very interested in building it - they quoted ridiculously high prices for it. The owner put out an email about it a few years ago.

[@johnnyeveritt5695]

I was about to ask the EXACT same question until I saw your above comment. Sadly; it is my understanding that production of the high quality BLACKSTONE MR-rangem has stalled ( ceased ? ); which for the HOn3 fraternity; is certainly a major blow. What was the REASON for this drastic decision having been taken ? ? ! 😣

[@trainmasterbond1970]

Have you thought of doing a diorama of a scene from The show He’ll on Wheels???

[@geraldstokes5661]

Wow , when u lay down some dirt, u really low down the dirt. Why so much?
