I’m glad that I’m such a novice I can enjoy this beautiful train layout. When it comes to trains I still have a little boy mentality. I can only feel sorry for the ‘experts’ who’ve lost that.

I think the layout is awesome and very detailed. But your village, cars, trucks and the whole theme is late 1950's or 1960's. Your locomotives are all late model. You need some GP7 or GP9 locomotives and maybe some F7 units would be a good touch. I am a retired railroader and love the hobby.

Sorry, pressed wrong button! To continue what I was saying is that the way I've wired the layout,via googling it, I've made a mistake somewhere along the lines (no pun intended), where when I want to transfer a loco from the main (out direction,ie, from Central (city district for any that don't know what I mean), through a double X crossover to connecting line leading to the shunting area! Every time I try this the loco stops dead as if it's getting no power from the frogs or track , I don't know? I've got DCC set up, but I've also got some pre 90's & 2000 engines that I was told I could run with a simple (but a little pricey) conversion. When this happens, even though I've got signals set to stop the other train(s) from a collision, it just won't get across unless I manually touch wires to the track, which by doing so negates my signals to either slow any oncoming traffic at a certain pre arranged distance or stop any trains that are within the 'danger' zone,ie,@ 6 feet on my layout. This happens whether the train is old or new. Someone on You Tube suggested checking for voltage spikes and dead spots with a meter,or check that your crossover is actually functional and is doing what it's supposed to do !! I may have to rip it up and replace it with a new one!! Anyways,has anyone else had a problem like this on their layout?? Let me know if you want, I'd like to hear about any other problems train enthusiasts face!! Thanx guys!! .

One thing I've had a problem with is trying to operate several locos at once in different directions. I've got two mains,one for each direction ofcourse and a shunting area on an HO layout @ 16'& 8 inches (5 metric meters), by 14' ( 4.2 meters),

A great layout, however I think it is a pity that the makers of this layout didn't choose to take locomotives that do fit to the time frame that did determine the layout itself. Especially this CSX coal train doesn't belong in that time frame, as an example of what I mean.
