Modern Operations - BNSF Fall River Division in HO Scale

[@UnionPacific1943]

I love this layout that where I’m going to build my own layout just like this one it’s going to take me days or months to finish the layout lots of weathering and lots of tracks and wiring

[@CobraChamp]

It is a really neat technique you’re using to overlay real train sounds over the video!

[@nsmodeler24]

Thanks! Definitely adds a lot to the realism. Now if we can get our models to sound like that! Josh

[@blainedunlap4242]

@@nsmodeler24 This comment was like giving away the end of a movie. I didn't realize you were remixing I thought you had discovered a sound miracle. Saw a comment you are going to medical school. What a waste of talent.

[@tyleradams4633]

That is one really cool layout, Thank you for the tour... 👍

[@kadebruce295]

Ah yes!! More of the Fall River division. I absolutely love this layout

[@jdmills4370]

I’ve watched three minutes but can tell this layout is absolutely amazing. Love how there is foreground trees and scenery. I realize it’s in reach zone but strategically placed it adds to realism.

[@kylewolfe305]

Awesome layout! Its good to see some BN and BNSFs. I live in Washington so I see a lot of these trains. Also that scenery is great 👍👍

[@edwinjohnson7580]

I have to keep reminding myself over and over these are model trains. The education from the narrative is an added bonus!

[@MattsTrainsTractors]

It’s funny I was just watching your previous Fall River Division video because I was bored lol. This is a truly incredible layout and it’s so nice to see other modelers visit other peoples’ layout. His layout is truly so inspiration, just like yours. Splendid job, Josh. - Matt

[@petersampson4635]

It's the pace/speed ease of movement that makes reality. At least the appearance thereof and of course the sounds that are tastefully and articulately applied. Kudos to all. I've driven working steam (believe it or not) and diesel locomotion (well retired) and I am very impressed and (virtually) taken back. Many thanks. Pete

[@arthurhouston3]

Love running the Coal Trains. The all time great train is the rail train always gets the most attention.

[@Kevin-ev7hw]

Thank you Josh for the tour of the Fall River Division. Its a really nice Railroad.

[@SgtPotatoChip6356]

Awesome layout. I see the train we are following has the single BNSF "Vomit Bonnet" experimental scheme, plus two SD70MACs in executive scheme in the trailing positions. Quite an awesome consist to see.

[@warwickroadmodelrailway]

What an awesome layout

[@mr.eggman4865]

Love all your video's! Keep it up. I truly do enjoy each and everyone.

[@adtion1]

This Layout is so fantastic! Please more of that. Greetings from germany

[@ThePeejRR]

Sure is an amazing layout. Thanks for sharing it with us!

[@railfanningmichael3970]

2:53 that scene is like an Amtrak Station in Selma NC where there a double track that's runs pass by the Station and a Single track just a few miles North from the Station

[@HiVoltish]

A well filmed, edited and narrated video on a beautiful layout!

[@valchavez9163]

Man....loved that horn blast on those macs.....

[@cfdtv1]

I would love to see the welded rail train in action. Great video and great job with the sound, had to take you forever. Thanks!!

[@grahamsawyer831]

absolutely incredible. so close to real life; vegetation, water extremely convincing. gotta say, I can't help thinking of the movie 'Beetlejuice' - I'm surely not the only person who'd like to be scaled down to 1:87 for a tour... PS model trains, real sound; brilliant result. awesome video, many thanks for posting!!!

[@monke7955]

Thought those were real trains from the thumbnail but I’m definitely not disappointed. Very realistic. subbed

[@hemihead68]

Absolutely blown away how every aspect / detail is so meticulously thought out and modeled !! Just Excellent work wow !

[@1babysag]

The detail is fantastic. I thought it was real for the first 30 seconds then I did not see the railroad official move. I am in awe of the level of realism and the amount of work it takes to do such things. The sound effects on the video are also impressive.

[@David-se2vg]

Great video nice narration beautiful layout

[@LRSX]

The scenery is amazing!! Thanks for sharing

[@franzbrunner499]

amazing layout and educational commentary -very well done -my heart beats faster at 3:35, 7:20, 7:40 with the 3 EMD SD70MACs -can't explain why think the Greinstein paint scheme is the nicest, in particular 9647 with thin red stripes

[@jalbhagwagar3353]

Why cant I give it a thumbs up every time I see it??? Its that good! Awessssome. Thanks to the creators and NS, both.

[@nanordstrom]

I can't really understand how any person have the space, the time, the money, the skill and passion do this, I just sit here and admire your piece of art. Greetings from Sweden!

[@rustyshackleford6637]

I'd like to just sit up in that room smoking weed all day

[@hemihead68]

My Lord that’s some incredible work !! Absolutely beautiful work and talent !!!

[@corpnupe85]

Amazing detail!

[@rodneymcgiveron]

Absolutely stunning...G'day from a BNSF modeler from Tasmania , Australia...Huge fan of your work ..

[@ericceulemans7851]

Amazing realistic layout very nice job...👍

[@nickygmp_350]

Just started a job with NS! Love your videos, definitely getting me hype to work for one of the greats!

[@chrisjct]

I love the narration and views just not the sound, I think most if not all model railroaders like the sounds the trains make on there own not artificial

[@timpriddy349]

That soundtrack is on point .......well done sir

[@metrolinxfan3005]

2:50 the best horn ever

[@mrsurfliner149]

No? It’s from a real life clip

[@scottpool4777]

That’s the way I like to see trains move nice and slow excellent

[@MrBillCNW]

Great job Josh. Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Bill

[@Axel_Kovacs]

Great video, also love the sounds, it really adds to the immersion 👍

Beautiful scenery work.

[@blainedunlap4242]

Nice Scene at 2:50 to 3.25 Great mix of backdrop and flats. At 6.30 7:00 Simple scene but just looks perfect.

[@federalpipingco.inc.7700]

Some people know how to do it right.looks great.

[@RonStanek]

Awesome guys, all you need now is some mini drone shots, to get that Birdseye View. LOL! 😆

[@trainchaserlouisvilleindia7096]

I love those spine cars

Hi Josh. Fantastic video and sound effects of an incredible layout. I really enjoy all of your videos of this layout and your own. One very small suggestion. A tripod to stop the sea sick hand held sway :-) Cheers, Brendon.

I’m more of a UK Model Railway person, but this is good all the same!

[@themigmadmarine]

Shame that you don't have footage of the continuous rail consist underway.

[@cats4ctc]

Check out this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/omHCfYSpZ6h7gLM. About 7 minutes and 15 minutes in, there are several seconds of the rail train.

[@Jonathanrailfanning123]

Its nice you do sound efects

[@randysrockandrollrailroad8207]

😊 well done

[@AaronnsCobraProductions]

The 1st engine on the empty coal train looks like an old Santa Fe engine

[@rickygarcia3454]

A couple of SD60M triclops too

[@davidclark6297]

Great layout. What brand of crossing signals are used at the :50 & 1:25 mark? What brand alternating flasher is utilized? Great beamspread and realistic 'soft' transitional alternating flash. Very real. Thank you for sharing.

[@bnsfbuff]

The signals are Tomar, and the flashing circuit is Logic Rail.

[@hemihead68]

Are the wayside sounds emanating from there at the track layout or being edited or dubbed in to this video I wonder ?

[@TheGomes412]

This is awesome. How did he make those waste paper bales at the Sage Recycle Center on his layout? Those look great!

[@bnsfbuff]

The shred bales are made from a small cross-cut shredder. The shred is formed to a rectangle with glue/shred mix.

[@TheGomes412]

@@bnsfbuff Wow! Nice. Does make any of these for purchase?

[@salinerailfan3907]

I have a question. If I paid you to re number a scale trains dash 9, and possibly add new sound, would you do it?

[@titusrider7948]

How did you get the road pavement in the opening scene so realistic ?

[@shawnpowell5876]

I assume that's a grain mill on the back wall? Whatever it is I want that to include in my layout.

[@electricgaming9914]

Don’t mind me listing while I work on my layout

[@nathankeske5697]

1:25 why did that engine slow down

[@Bigpoppi1469]

i love coal trains!

[@trainkidasher9731]

Fun fact:BNSF 1648 is actually still in Santa Fe paint and not H4 paint cause I’ve seen it very recently
