For 3-rail O scale, this looks incredibly realistic. I actually thought this was an O scale 2-rail layout at first since those tend to be much more realistic from what I've seen. This guy went above and beyond with this, showing that O scale 3-rail can also be extremely serious as far as realism. Absolutely jaw-dropping.

This layout was awesome and spectacular! But now, he has an even better one!

[@pilentum]

Yes, the new layout is fantastic!

[@carlkulzer5982]

This train layout is mind boggling. I love the sound, beautiful, motive power etc. My one complaint is the huge out of scale coupler on the front of the diesels. Considering the cost of these fantastic scale locomotives, why doesn’t Lionel and other manufactures offer scale couplers for the lead diesel? Thanks for posting.

[@emowilliams10001]

Damn dude, you gave me a whole new perspective on three rail O scale. Gorgeous layout!

[@RobertEHunt-dv9sq]

Norm, just incredible. Stunning work and detail. Fantastic weathering. Thanks for posting the video.

[@biscuitag97]

This guy is crazy good with the realism. His youtube channel is fantastic too. Great 3 rail action!

[@mike6206]

Norm always has great trains! I love seeing them!

[@davevan8864]

That is a lot of great footage of Norm's old layout!!! Norm does great work which I hope to copy best I can . Thanks

[@georgeronn1263]

Excellent modeling for an O-scale 3 rail layout. Really impressed with the scenery. I also really liked the Baldwin Centipedes. Very nice.

[@titodalessandro1909]

Wow that is fantastic!

[@medwaymodelrailway7129]

Love the new update you done and thanks for sharing.

[@medwaymodelrailway7129]

Thanks very much for replying to my comment. Wow as people are starting to come back there are so many great channel out there and It's nice to see other people's work to get idea to improve my Channel so this is Diesel dave signing off and always take care & stay safe.

[@williamkolina3988]

Norm is a genius and a great guy

[@pilentum]

Definitely!

[@truefilm6991]

Absolutely fantastic! Some very impressive steamers and brand new Diesels here (I guess this layout loosely represents the 1950s - no worries, I'm far from being a purist LOL). But my heart belongs to the old PRR steam workhorses. The 2-10-0 (I1) and the 2-8-0 (H8/9 I guess) are real beauties and your weathering is perfect!

[@mvg2x34]

Thank you Pilentum. Beautiful camera angles. This layout has beautiful multidimensional terrain and depth. I loved the motive power and both the steam and diesel smoke. Finally, the steam chuffs, horns, whistles, bells and radio chatter really added to the action. Very nice.

[@luvindemtrains]

Totally impressed as always. You're work is second to none Norm!

[@johnpandolfino8663]

What a stunning layout..... can't wait to see more......👏👌👍🤟😎🎸☃️

Absolutely a beautiful o gauge three rail layout.

Cordial saludo 🚂💛 Felicidades 😊✔️💯💯🤗

[@williamkolina3988]

Norm is an artist.just great

[@lissanne9769]

Incredible talent making this spectacular Train layout, Mr Charbonneau. You have a nice collection of Train Engine types. Two of them I recognize. The engines were in a transportation museum in Denver. All of the details with the buildings and landscapes are beautifully accomplished. The audio was wonderful. Hearing how each one sounded. Loved the camera angles and lighting. The best part, or one of them, was seeing all of the smoke stacks on the "coal" powered engines. Thanks for this magnificent video.

[@TheSuperStarCarWash]

I've never seen anything like it. wow! N scale model maker here... The set is ultra-hyper detailed, very fun and inspirational to examine. What's most impressive is the video production and Imagery. 🏆

[@АлиАлекперов-ж9в]

Super model! Mersi Pilentum!

[@gregsmith1719]

Beautiful! Except for the track.

[@pilentum]

Yes, the 3-rail-track is very strange :-)

[@lazqr]

​@@pilentumit looks great though

[@jimcarey9523]

Norm’s the best. Still my favorite layout. Thanks for sharing.

[@pilentum]

Thanks for watching, Jim!

[@josephpruett5661]

Very very nice.

Bravo !!! Continuez à me faire rêver , moi qui arrive au crépuscule de ma vie, Merci

[@robertotoniolo4204]

Bellissimo video con locomotori veramente belli anche nei particolari, ma anche il paesaggio è molto bello,sembra di vedere i locomotori di un tempo,molto realistico anche il fumo che esce,grazie

[@pilentum]

Grazie, Roberto! Veramente, il fumo è bellissimo!

[@josecordova4044]

Great video. You must have love your trains as you were growing up. You must have lots of help built this great outlet in your basement. Thank you for letting us see your video. 👍👍👍

[@elnabjelland-hughes8172]

Great layout ! Love those steam trains 🚂😊💕

[@Porschedude8]

Brilliance! 👏😌

[@Myriadconcepts-q9u]

Finally Scale Trains at scale speeds!! Magnificent… 90% of the stuff on KZbin; I think they are trying to reach Mach speed or how fast can they run trans without derailment. This footage was professionally produced! I know I teach how to do this properly. Only one trick not used that we do. I use a 4 or 6 foot tracker where a camera is mounted on a track as well and you can follow along What ever the speed… wonderful…,

[@pauloricardodemello3864]

Muito bom mesmo ❤ amei,❤

Very excellent paradise

謝謝！

[@pilentum]

不得不说：非常感谢！

[@carlkulzer5982]

This layout is magnificent. My one complaint is the huge out of scale couplers on the front of the diesels. Why doesn’t Lionel and other manufactures offer scale couplers for the front of diesels? They do on steam locomotives. Thanks for posting. I love it.

[@rudolphward4375]

Amazing....

[@steffenrosmus9177]

Phantastic layout with incredible focus on detail,, only point of criticism is the use of 3 rail track. That ruins the otherwise perfect illusion.

[@TheSuperStarCarWash]

Couldn't have said it better myself.

[@steffenrosmus9177]

@@TheSuperStarCarWash thanks

[@kenmunozatmmrrailroad6853]

No scale like O-scale!

[@LesTrainsduBalbu]

Hello ! I guess that the O scale in the US is 1/48, not 1/43 like in Europe ! Very impressive model railway ! Thank you for this video ! greetings from France 😃 !

[@ashokkumarpanigrahy2654]

Man yr videos are awesome

[@jimcarey7927]

By far one of my favorites although that UP stuff looks a little out of place.😉

[@matteffm2090]

Phantastisch 🤩

[@passioncuriositywithadnanm9597]

Is O scale equivalent to 1-48 scale ???

[@adeeponionbrah]

J😊ust beautiful. Way too noisy for me. No clicky-clack.

[@kennyleung1017]

Bachmann train good 👍 24.06.2022

[@MShep-mh5xo]

Do your Centipedes leak oil? 😄

[@carstenprilow1837]

It is sad that those who control the train constantly either push the horn or ring the train bell, it sounds like hell and you have to turn the sound off to be able to stand it. Sad

[@yeoldeseawitch]

No matter how hard you try, 3 rail will never look realistic

[@lazqr]

cry about it

[@monstersbrandsparkplugz7151]

To everyone that has an issue with the track, get bent!

[@MrDominick4950]

Thoese big boys and the allegheny definitely do not fit the scenery back ground it looks more like a northern Ohio or Michigan setting back ground but don’t misunderstand the city scenes and background scenery is well done the majority of three rail layouts that i see for the most part look toyish but to each his own its nice to see at least even though we are a small Minority of modelers to see work being done almost to prototype. I am curious as to what those two rail modelers would have to say if anything about this work!!!

[@joelvale3887]

Pretty soon this hobby is going to pay carbon tax.

[@drewsterwa]

They look so stupid with the 3rd rail and as for the smoke, I was doing that when I was 8 with my old Hornby set. Surely by now they would have added appropriate colour to the smoke!!

[@janbartelick4289]

Please Show us your layout. Must be much better. The one shown here is absolute great.

[@pilentum]

Thanks, Jan!

Absolutely a beautiful o gauge three rail layout.
