Tony Lash's Masterpiece Model Railroad

[@jrcrawford4]

"I used to ride a 6YB from Bluefield to Norfolk or to Hampton Roads." That is a childhood to be envied! What an amazing layout!

[@sargentrowell81]

I remember watching Tracks Ahead with my grandpa when I was a kid! This is cool.

[@Vaderd2k926]

I always favor the layouts that feature motion as much as possible. Nothing static here. It’s all very lifelike with many moving accessories. I’ve often wondered what could be accomplished with no limits. Now I know. Fabulous

[@jebbthetrainkid1281]

Tony has had a Great Lifetime with Trains. Nice to see his great looking Layout.

[@markmccummins8049]

This is a beautiful railroad. Thumbs up to Mr. Lash.

[@diffened]

Absolutely fantastic. I would thoroughly enjoy watching his trains running on this.

[@vincentschirripa532]

OUTSTANDING!!! I wish our youth of today would get involved in model railroading instead of video games.

[@sieb_nieman485]

I loved them all my life now 17 and building my dream layout in a room 5x6M just got table and working on track plan rn cant wait to start the scenery😄 (Srry of my english is bad)

[@johnpandolfino8663]

Simply stunning Tony.....& Crew. thanks for sharing.....

[@MrMotivations]

In 1949, Mom bought me an o scale Lionel. A friend built a 4x8 platform for it in the basement. Now that I'm a man of a certain age, I appreciate that Tony uses O scale for the same reasons I chose to re-ignite my hobby. The inspiration, imagination, execution and beauty of this set leaves me breathless!! Thanks for the magnificent documentary.

[@kerrybridges4647]

Wow,I'm a kid again. Thank for posting your layout.

[@RMJ1984]

The only things that seem to be missing would be wind and flowing water. What an absolutely amazing project!.

[@marquitawise3424]

Hello Mr.lash this was amazing to see this . I remember seeing the display in NE Washington. Hope all is well. Enjoy your life much love . Marquita

[@RonN448]

This model railroad certainly is a Masterpiece. The detail is incredible. Just seeing it is captivating.

[@stephenjones8928]

Nice to hear the Pentrex narrator doing the patter for this video. I like the host too. Fantastic layout to say the least.

[@silverfox5319]

Magnificent layout. To all of you who worked on this layout I can only say one thing. It was time well spent. Thanks for sharing.

[@sleeplessingc]

This man who narrated is awesome. Stunning layout with some scope to it. The easements between the features are realistic and reasonable. The curve radiuses are realistic. Just an amazing job. Congrats to the owner and his team.

[@raymondblais947]

That layout is something that most of us dream about having. You and your friends did an amazing job building it. I would love to see that layout in person.

[@GoonOnFire]

Simply astounding. I love how when you watch these videos, it's rarely a guy that just threw some track together... there is nearly always a rich heritage behind their vision, and what they aimed to accomplish. I'd love to run my little Blue Comet on this!

[@Starfield1959]

I saw Tony's layout featured in Model Railroader several years back. I was really awed by the amount of work that went into this layout. And Tony's story too. This is the first time ever, seeing this layout in operation... I'm glad there are more realistic 3-Rail trains being created for the more discriminating modeler. It makes all the difference in the world to the Empire builder. Those clunky looking Lionel trains are great for collectors, but people want the realism factor for their "perfect world". This is a Great Empire that Tony has here, and I for one, would love to see this in person.

[@95SLE]

Wonder how you keep this massive layout clean and free of dust buildup.

[@philipshort3178]

Mr.Mike Lash, I can only dream about a layout like yours. I had the same dreams you had when I was a kid. I'm in my middle 60's now. Good fortune with your layout. Thank you.

[@SuperChiefer84]

This is the best layout I've seen! He rode a Y6B with his grandfather that's great.

[@SJM6791]

Wow!! This is an amazing layout. What I find even more interesting is listening to the owner/operator describe his life long passion.

[@JimBrooksDrums]

One of the best O gauge layouts I've ever seen. Thanks for sharing.

[@jimbrent8151]

Mr. Lash... I also had dreams of this when I was a kid... thank you for sharing, it is inspiring...

[@davevan8864]

My understanding is the layout is no more. Mr Lash moved and planned to rebuild....but yet to hear if it happened. Love to see a new Lash layout.

[@davidsheriff8989]

Wow factor here....incredible modelling

[@pierluigifaliva6678]

Che meraviglia !! Vedo questo e mi vien voglia di smantellare il mio plastico che non regge il confronto. How wonderful !! after seeing this I feel like dismantling my layout which pales in comparison to this one

[@MosriteCharlie]

Amazing Tony. Well done!

[@denassdidu]

Thank you Mr. Lash. You are what help's dreams stay alive. That is Great work you have done. Wish I could see it in the real. Thank you Dennis

[@CarlGSmith]

Tony, I'm totally in awe! This is one of the most intricate and detailed layouts I've ever seen. Blessings to you and the family, Enjoy!

[@johnwhohasanopinion7939]

Tony. What a vision you have made a reality. , my hats off to you. Absolutely the best. By the way. Love the Yankees hat. 👍

[@earlmaura670]

[@duke11746]

[@Jigsaw_knows]

[@lebooboolina7751]

Amazing! I’ve never seen a model railroad that big!!!

[@FrankELembo]

Super job to Tony & the Gang ! Simply beautiful !

[@bxjibaro73]

AWESOME Train layout!!! Great attention to detail 👌 👍 🚂

[@raynorhannah8395]

Man, that is a beautiful layout! I'm 46, but im thinking about getting back into it. My uncle worked for The Norfolk Western.

[@pilierofq]

Just WOW!!!! thanks for sharing your layout .One of the best on KZbin. It shows your love for the trains!!

[@josephholtrop5535]

Why is this video so short. Should of taken us on a ride along. Impressive

[@RonLego]

Tony, your layout is fabulous. The attention to detail, the moving features and the sheer volume of track and scenery is seldom, if ever, duplicated. You have created a true masterpiece. Thanks for sharing it with us.

[@SciTrekMan]

Wow! Just wow! What a stunning, fabulous layout!

[@FutureRailProductions]

This is the same exact clip they use in Model Railroader's: Dream, Plan, Build series. That's cool.

[@maggiesatterfield2402]

Beautiful and so full of detail. Love it.

[@DS75921]

Hats off to you wonderful model empire

[@trainroomgary]

Excellent layout, with all the details. "Historic" 🚂

[@TrainMan69]

The video and layout is just awesome. What is Tony doing in 2022?

[@rem-so1ly]

This is a legendary layout! All the best to you Mr. Lash, and hope you are well! I love the animated scenes like the firehouse, the boy climbing the tree, the bulldozers, and of course the turntable

[@Hendo56]

Truly a well designed, well scenicked, and fun looking layout!

[@ctatrains]

All I can say is WOW!

[@roseannburke6512]

absolutely wonderful display... I have watched the video several times and am amazed by your talent and vision.

[@keithjackson9141]

Tony it’s good to see the area of layout you have, many of us could only wise for the space! It looks great, I’ve just started a small layout, check it out and leave suggestion Illinois central fan! Keep the videos coming as blessings brother!

[@FeedScrn]

The definition of excellence... Very nice job. // I find that in layout-watching... the HO's are Ok, but a lot of them run herky-jerky like... Sometimes they are so erratic that I can't watch them. The 'N' guage is economical... I used to have 'N'.... But those are always like you're looking at the trains from far away.

[@christopherfreeman3357]

Best O Scale Layout ever.

[@davidbradley5969]

Truly amazing! That's a beautiful layout, Mr. Lash.

[@Piper8bw]

Tony you did a fantastic job, the best layout I have ever seen & I seen quite a few in my lifetime.

[@jackwright2495]

This is truly incredible and deserves many more views!

[@KikiDupris]

this was my most favourite scene ever seen!

[@thomasabbott8974]

Tracks Ahead:.. Tony Lash's Masterpiece Model RailRoad. Truly spectacular lay out 'Tony. ' An the detail in every part is Absolutely out Standing.

[@richardgordon8110]

Outstanding Tony.

[@harryschaefer5887]

Someday I'd love to see my Lionel O-gage "Hiawatha Special" that I inherited from my dad run on a layout. The "Hiawatha Special" appears for a few seconds at the beginning of the movie "A Christmas Story".

[@rogersheth404]

I have a large train layout and can appreciate the effort here. Your layout is amazing. Please make more videos. I'd love to see a video from the track view.

[@SnooperSquirrelFilms]

This is BEAUTIFUL ! Looks like Pittsburgh area. You have great talent & dreams. God Bless You !

[@Wollenschrank]

Impressive! Greetings from Magdeburg/Germany.

[@stevenspaziani9159]

Tony, you've created one of the most beautiful railroads I have ever seen, I'm an O gauger by heart but space only allows me to model HO, however I still collect and repair Lionel trains The older and brokener the better. Thanks for sharing.

[@robertgatchel1938]

Absolutely amazing. Beautiful details.

[@Loulovesspeed]

Excellent set up and finishing detail. You hit this one out of the park, Tony!

[@ericoxner255]

I had a video tap by mth trains that had this layout.My jaw dropped when I first saw it.To see a double header steam locomotives pulling a long trains.The other details are alsome and to heat tony take about his childhood.While my childhood in the 1970s.I did get to see the gp9 and gp7 locomotives and some wooden boxcars.Along with the sd45 and the u33-7.I love looking at his layout.Sadly it is no more because he sold his company.And the lay out was taken down .

[@railroadmillion681]

[@DS75921]

hats off to you sir

[@rbleda]

That is a great looking layout!! I myself am working on an o gauge layout. I am curious, how did you get the people to move? That’s one of the things I would like to put in my layout. My layout is only 6’x16’, but I am happy with it. Later down the road I would like to make an extension off the side, but that’s later. Like I said though I am very curious about your people. Please write back soon. Thanks, Rick

[@anthonygunter4064]

Is this layout still up and running?
