Operations of the APRGM on the N Scale Union Pacific Railroad Geneva Subdivision

This is a new operations video on the N Scale Union Pacific Railroad Geneva Subdivision. This video and the one to follow, covers the operations of the APRGM, an autorack train from Proviso to GEMCO yard in Van Nuys, CA (sorry for the mispronunciation, should be Nize)

This is amazing. Detail...weathering & landscaping is also amazing.

[@BrooklynPerson30000]

and I love the slowdown before stopping. I rarely see that with model trains; it's so effective

[@banjol4595]

Outstanding Ops, Very Clean, Smoothest running trains I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing, Steve

[@castaway3129]

fabulous layout and video.

[@brianbanegas8917]

Awesome video I really enjoy the authenticity of your operations. Keep up the good work.

[@denismay6011]

Being a U P Nut in Far North Queensland, Australia has it's drawbacks but when observe a Layout of outstanding quality such as this one it becomes easy to watch my Favourite Railway in my Favourite Scale. Absolutely Awesome.

[@BrooklynPerson30000]

Perfect density of objects & terrain- looks so real! Great job.

[@glennmsparks]

Excellent looking for N scale. Well done video.

[@user-qr7ee2cp4y]

That is an impressive layout you have.

[@tommythomason6187]

Loved watching the autotrain roll through that double-tracked diamond.

[@Camlikesbmxbiks420]

thank you so much for the great videos pleas keep the operation ones coming

[@jamesdmehl]

Just fabulous, so well done!

[@QRoutback]

Thanks for great ops video, you have fantastic layout there Cheers Glynn

At 4:40 When i saw the tan brick brown roof old beer house where they also spot the potato (reefer) cars i had to watch more. You included the rusty bridge next to the tower including one of the banners they started putting up since appx. 2010. To the left of that i see the red brick former carman shanty now Conductor Engineer and Manager shanty. Since you have those NS units, you could also model the Trailmobile trains off of the NS to Minnesota or where ever the heck they went North on the New Line/Milwaukee Sub. They were discontinued about 3 or 4 years ago or so. This is a nice layout. If you ever get hold of a huge warehouse to build this actual size i'll help you build the yard every ballast hurting my feet foot by ballast hurting my feet foot.

nice video !!! Happy new Year !!!

[@dalemadison2368]

I really want to do one of Northwest Indiana and Chicago and South suburbs railroad but don't know where to start. Any advice for a first-timer

[@richard6320]

Good afternoon I love whiching your video

[@EvanstonSub]

So glad!

[@4gauge10]

Very impressive operations,there's only one thing missing is sound.

[@TruthBlitzMedia]

Where did you get your modular backdrop?

[@nicolasbiangel9577]

What type of couplers do you use ?

[@SpikeTDog1]

My first time seeing this. I'm trying to model Sandwich, Illinois to Union Station, Chicago. I finally took the plunge to DCC and will never go back. For those of you that are just starting out, don't bother with DC. DCC is very simple to set up and offers so much more to the modeling hobby.

[@jazzman1626]

SpikeTDog1 It's only simple if you can work with electricity.

[@drumday]

Quality work all the way.

[@shovel20]

I just love the UP fleet in your yard, as the Norfolk and southern departs back to where it was from. Yeah go back to where you came from! union Pacific the the GE engine

[@ManifestPhil99]

Please, i like to know what Union Pacific engine s are manufactured by. Also what track are you using. Atlas ? I am thinking about getting back into N scale in the next few years as downsizing. i collect O scale and layouts are almost impossible unless one owns a BIG house with a basement.Oh, beautiful layout

[@todaystomsawyer4693]

What kind of ballast do you use? I've tried woodland scenics in many colors and none turn out nearly as well as yours. Great looking layout too!

[@Edward-ed2oi]

Very realistic track. What type is it and what did you use for ballast? Also that water is really good, how did you do it?

[@stownsel2]

To the owner of this video. First, this is a great layout but was wondering what was your method of adding details to your UP SD70ACe's? Specifically, the dynamic brake vents as well as the rest of the vents located underneath the cab? Warm Regards

[@ATSF1317]

AWSOME!

[@gatblau1]

Wow what a great layout. I kept having to remind myself that this is N scale. Is that Atlas code 55 or something finer? It looks great. Your freight cars seem well balanced and weighted, they don't have that unrealistic wobble you see on other N scale layouts. Great job!

[@shipmate3577]

Really liked your video and your trains and layout. I'm strongly considering getting into the hobby and N scale interests me as I'm military, pcs often, and can probably only use a spare room in the house (likely the smallest room). Should I go DC or DCC? I like having sounds, but I've heard folks using a cd or mp3 file that loops/plays over speakers while the train moves. Any suggestions/lessons learned? V/R, Shipmate

[@EvanstonSub]

Definitely go DCC.

[@shipmate3577]

First, thanks for reply. Then... I'm looking at Bachmann's Golden Spike with DCC starter train set for $270. www.trainworld.com/manufacturers/model-train-starter-sets/bachmann-24131-golden-spike-with-digital-control-up/ I'm not an electrician... so I like the simplicity of hooking up to Bachmann's ez track (compared to Kato's unitrack).

[@LouisianaRailProductions]

Cool!

[@ELLWANGERR]

whose turnouts do you use. Im having trouble with Microengineering ones

[@ELLWANGERR]

Union Pacific Geneva Subdivision looks great

[@KRAZYKUZTOMS]

Get a tri pod and use it

[@EvanstonSub]

Hard to take advice from someone with 74 subscribers.

[@KRAZYKUZTOMS]

Union Pacific Geneva Subdivision well if you go by subscriber count that explains alot

[@EvanstonSub]

Hard to take advice from someone who doesn't know how to spell a lot correctly as two words.

[@milwaukeearearailfan5602]

... wow ...
