The OTM Tracker Model Finally Arrived!!

[@HartfordWhaler]

Comment from Justin Earnest (OTM Tracker Model on Facebook) who makes these awesome OTM Trackers. Let him know I sent you if you order one… “Thank you Paul B. That was a great video. I'm happy you enjoy the model 😊. You also did a very good job on your OTM Tracker. Thank you for sharing a great video of both models. Thank you.

That was cool to see the store-bought version, but you should be proud of yours. I like them both!

[@HartfordWhaler]

Thank you! I went into the project not sure how I’d build it, but it came together in a way that I was happy with. I guess that’s the trick with scratch building…just go for it! Thanks for the comment and for watching!

[@georgiasunbelt]

An awesome model…you did a great job on your scratch built one too

[@HartfordWhaler]

Thank you very much!

[@TrainWatcher1412]

Hi Paul, another truly fantastic job you did on the tracker..You can be proud of that model

[@HartfordWhaler]

Really appreciate that! Not close to the one I ordered, but I had a blast making it. Thanks for the comments and for watching!

Very nice

[@HartfordWhaler]

Thank you. And thanks for watching!

[@rahsunwilliams]

both are awesome. Now that you have his you can now super detail yours a little more. I don't have Facebook so I'm very impressed with how yours came out. Great job!! I will be modeling one myself in the future this really adds to the layout... cheers 🥂

[@HartfordWhaler]

Appreciate that! Yes his is a great model. And I do need to detail mine more. Fun project! Thanks for watching.

[@toddarmstrong.trackside.action]

wow Paul, that new model is fantastic, but I still think the one you scratchbuilt looks amazing too. You did a great job on it.

[@HartfordWhaler]

Thanks! Yes his model is outstanding. I may just display it and use it occasionally. I could never part with the one I made. Thanks for watching!

[@stevechilders2425]

That really looks good. Yours is as well.

[@HartfordWhaler]

Thanks. He makes a masterpiece.

[@sernajrlouis]

Cool

[@HartfordWhaler]

👍

[@HumancityJunction]

LOL, If you build it, they will come!!! I wonder if he saw your video and decided he would get it to you ASAP.

[@HartfordWhaler]

Could be! No regrets building it. Just regret buying a second one ;)

[@SouthDown]

I'm kinda in love with yours, to be honest.

[@HartfordWhaler]

Selfishly I am too! But I am flattered you like the one I made. I just kind of made it up as I went. Appreciate the comment!

[@lucgagnon5241]

Hey Paul. Thanks very much for sharing. I got no Facebook account but I was able to see some of his work anyway. I'm truly interested in buying one. Can you help me reach that guy please ? Course his tracker is very nice but yours is also great. You've putted a lot of time in it. You did a great job. Especially because you've started from scratch. Respect man ! Keep on your good work here. Can't wait to see progress on that extra track you're planing to do.

[@HartfordWhaler]

Thank you! I can get you his email if you shoot me a not at [e-mail]

[@vincebreen3-55]

Put them both on the layout

[@HartfordWhaler]

I think I might with the new extension I’m working on. Thanks for watching!

[@dennisarmes3473]

hi paul !!! nice video !!! isn't it a pain in the butt when you build something from scratch then a short time later it becomes available ???? for me, i needed a cement pad for my intermodal facility and was toiling with what type of material i was going to use to replicate the concrete pad... i used floor tile that i got at the local valu hardware store and all ended well but it was a bit of work to complete. then, about 4-5 months later walthers came out with a beautiful pad in their cornerstone series !!! as you said about all the electrical "stuff"in your video, " such is the life of a model railroader" !! btw, what did that baby cost you ??? my mow crew has been bitchin' about the division needing upgrades !!! blessings to you, paul !!!

[@HartfordWhaler]

Thanks! Yeah but I bet you love the concrete pads you made. The OTM track I bought was 130 shipped. Not sure if that’s still his price. Just expect to wait a while for it. He makes a great product for sure. Thanks for the comments and for watching!

[@w.rustylane5650]

How much for a model like that??? Cheers from eastern TN

[@HartfordWhaler]

A bit pricey. 130 ish. Mine was made for about 45.
