hello there mr. roy thank you for coming to my house it was a great day for sure hanging out with you and todd and the ladies. it was my perfect birthday wish and weekend that week couldnt have asked for more. cant wait to see your video of todds layout also. i also wanted to say thank you to all that replyed to this video. you humble me with all your praise and i thank you all for it. it is so fulfilling to me as a person and a modelrailroader to hear all your comments. it really means a lot to me and i cant thank you all enough. you all should realize that your railroads have givin me inspiration and ideas along with many others in the train world. my mentor and good friend todd treaster is one of the reasons that i am able to do such stuff he has taught me a lot and i do mean a lot in this hobby over the last 30 plus years. to meet people like roy, todd , steve wilson, mike sabia , vinny, big john t, and a host of others makes me a better person and modler. thank you all again

Jim, I want you to know that you deserve every single kind word written about you and your layout is the comments to this video. I cannot tell you just how much I enjoyed our time together during my recent trip to Pennsylvania. Thank you for creating such a beautiful layout, and thank you for allowing me to share it with the model railroad community. Stay well, my friend. Until we next meet.... Roy P.S. I'm pinning your comment to the top of the comments.

Sounds you made a trip to my region. I live just west of Manassas VA near Bealton VA and am working on an HO basement layout which is about 15x36 feet roughly based on the D&RGW Grand Junction area and westward (era: late 70's thru early 80's). My problem is having enough time to get to the point of this layout. I am collecting a roster of N scale rolling stock because I expect to downsize in another 5 years or so. In the meantime work progresses in my basement - I have a blog of sorts on the AtlasRescueForum in the Project Archive section. Enjoyed viewing this video! Cheers.

great layout - I'm not an enthusiast or anything - just stumbled on to this - - when I was a kid I had a friend who's uncle built rideable trains - he had tracks running all around his house and quite the impressive workshop - I only got to see it all just once but it was pretty cool - - I like what this guy has done hear though, very nice, my only suggestions would be to slow the trains down to make look more natural (Just my opinion) also if they sell them, the cars need graffiiti decals or something - that would look awesome
