If only I had a whole layout like this, this quarantine would be nothing to me.

[@HenryProductionsYT]

That’s my dream layout right there!

[@pgwargamer]

I can honestly say this is one of my all time favorite layouts!! Every single detail is perfect. Every colour of every building is perfect. Absolutely amazing!

[@TrainLoverYT394]

What scale is this layout?

[@jimsmoter4510]

Great video...

[@motowen2738]

Who else thought the thumbnail was real for a second

[@MattsVidsXD]

The detail, the modern look is very relatable. Every sidewalk , control box for crossings, fast food restaurants. Wow nailed it

[@bradytains1593]

Finally you’re back, all the all the trains look really nice on the layout and modernize.

[@ReniniPanini]

The layout looks so realistic! Amazing!

[@chesapeakerailproductions]

Incredible video & layout! This layout is the most detailed & realistic modern layout I have ever seen. Incredible work!

[@Junee704]

25 minutes of pure perfection! Each passing train was amazing to watch! I found myself googling some of the road names, something I only do when I’m watching REAL trains. Great job I’m a new fan!

[@donaldbartram6315]

Love how the scenery is part of the layout, not an after thought.I've always been a scenery guy more than some one who runs the trains,,

[@SheepJebPlayz]

Why does it look so cool, and so real at the same time

[@ResidentOfTheAbyss]

I literally thought I was outside in reality when watching everything on this layout it’s that good! 👍🏻

[@bryttafitzgibbons6901]

So did I

[@chrisbragdon5901]

Truly amazing, even the Doppler effect is in scale! A turn signal plinking on one of the car’s would be a jaw dropping finish to this work!

[@hdspringer2561]

The most amazing modern area US Layout I have ever seen on youtube 👍👍. Thanks so much for sharing. 👏

[@rimodeler7963]

Great video of a great model railroad. The overall detail and weathering is fantastic! Thank you very much for the video. Mike

[@cbgadget4740]

Enjoyed watching the video, great assortment of locomotives, cars and your layout. The crossing details and operations look super Top notch equipment and layout Thanks for sharing 👍👍👍😎😎😎 Cary

On the upside... I have this vid hooked up to my 40+ in tv....full blast....wait for it...and my neighbors dog thinks something big is rolling by. Love the horns. Be safe. Stay healthy. God bless

[@doug9066]

Love the video of your electric train set which love the restaurant signs & buildings including the CVS Pharmacy. I'm still watching but paused to comment. Thank you for sharing! 👍

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

Wow! Fantastic. I love the highway signs and the attention to detail, especially the vehicles. That Buick @10:50 looks like a real car shrunk down to HO scale!

[@mysticrailroad]

That's a fine layout. Nice subtle weathering.

[@ericsimmon9308]

So many things to love about this video. Like it feels you are really trackside watching these trains. The trains and scenes are awesome. Scenery and real to life details are perfect. Also love the placement of that do not enter sign in La grange.

[@OHHP3712U]

Looks like Natural light through the haze. Track and roadbed colors look Real!

[@jimdavis3435]

I did an ho layout..took me 20 years..was once featured in our local newspaper...but my garage leaked badly during a storm and destroyed most of it...couldnt afford a do-over...so i enjoy watching these!!!

[@NorthAmericanTrains]

Amazing run bys! This is by far one the best layouts I’ve seen in HO scale! Truly amazing work! ~Pedro

[@railsofchicagoandbeyond8832]

You finally came back. Love all of the improvements you’ve made.

[@marksmithdiecast001]

This is one of my favorite layouts! I love the working lights beside the track. Super realistic!

[@LRA_Models]

Amazing work on the layout ! Love the way how you modeled the suburban areas, looks very real ! Cheers from Germany

[@perlaursen478]

Vielen Dank, Luca :-)

[@philipfrancis2593]

Absolutely FANTASTIC I truly enjoyed your video THANKS!!!

[@mjesus4621]

I´m just 14 years old and i have been making my own layout of texas, your layout is really an inspiration for me, i love it!!

[@railfanningfun5241]

Same also making a layout but it Illinois

[@J3scribe]

That was fantastic. I've been hoping for an update of your wonderful layout and this one did not disappoint. Thanks!

[@raymondhayes7462]

Probably the MOST REALISTIC layout I have ever seen!!

[@robrobbins574]

Amazing train show! Love the background and the blending of the scenery.

[@thomasnativo6491]

It's amazing how Toco Bell is in Ho scale and other buildings .

[@thomasnativo6491]

Even Lowes but we're do you get in Ho scale Railroad crossings and other Signals for when the Trains have to stop for crew changes or let others come by

[@thomasnativo6491]

This is a nice Layout

[@Grainexpress]

That shot at 11:50 is absolutely superb!

[@TheSupradude26]

This layout has always been one of my favorites, specifically because of the scenery and how it can easily pass for the real thing. I would love to see what the builder (forgot his name) could do with a much bigger space and a bigger variety of scenery such as big mountainous areas, bridges etc. He would moat definitely be near the top of the list of people I would want to hire to help build my dream layout if the powerball lottery ever called my name haha. I have always wanted to do a modern day theme like this and he has it nailed!

[@maplesyrup_railfan]

The Horn on that CP ES44 sounds so good

[@MetalMania3DTV-TAS-AUS]

Amazingly well done absolutely blown away by the details amazing results fantastic job Rgds KC Tassie Australia Stay safe take care

[@ironstef7071]

And please keep feeding your channel with these beautiful train sessions!

[@sugarcubeaudio152]

Beautiful I loved all the scenes and all the different trains

[@artkemberling7764]

Endless detail! Amazing layout! Love the NS units.

[@alankjkj1]

You one of only a few that I have ever heard say ”now that my layout is finished ”. I am not going to lie I am green with envy. Anyone who likes model railroading would love to have a pike that looks and operates like yours. Now the real fun begins. As we say in Boston ” have a pissaa time”

[@gunnyusmc4957]

Its been very long long time since I have actually sat and watched not only trains and then I watched it again to look at the details that you have done with your layout and engine detailing and on the you're rolling stock, excellent layout my compliments sir, I've watched your videos and watched the work you have done .

[@derekchildress5]

Beautiful consist! Love the scenery on the layout!

[@ironstef7071]

My opinion: Best layout ever. Maybe not so much from an operator's standpoint, but certainly for realism. It's a tribute to modern scale modeling possibilities nowadays, and to what can be achieved with real life skills. Museum level art work. Congratulations! I wish I could see it in person one day. That would be worth the trip.

[@perlaursen478]

Thanks for your kind comments, send me an e-mail if your travel plans bring you near Lake Charles, LA, [e-mail]

[@ironstef7071]

I will certainly keep that in mind. It sure would be worth the trip, along with some vacation time in the south. Thanks for your kind offer. My own modest 7x9' layout is not so much worth the interest, but I am still preparing for a busy retirement one day...

[@duanemunger5655]

This layout is the best thing in the entire world I wish I had something like this!

[@TheCajunCatcher]

Wow! Woke up and my 4 year old daughter said she had a dream about trains so I thought id show her some different kinds of trains and we are blown away by the detail and work you put in to this. Outstanding work my friend.

[@noahhaley0640]

This was so good that I thought the thumbnail was a real train for a second

[@shchorss]

I'll be honest, I thought this was some railfanning video IRL just by looking at the thumbnail. That's how realistic your layout is

[@donaldkarcheriii7249]

The only thing I can say is wow! It's so nice to see a model railroad without a washer and dryer or a furnace in the backdrop. If it was a movie it could be entitled Honey I Shrunk The Neighborhood.

[@DavidJohnson-cm8nl]

A great layout, been watching as you built it the last couple of years, so detail and like the cars and trucks on it as well.

[@giannissartzis8943]

Φφγφγηγηη. Dcvhggjghjj ↗

[@thomashudson428]

Wow what a wonderful layout. Much respect to you.

[@rongriffin9771]

Extremely realistic video. I especially appreciate all the accurate modern autos (they are tough to find).

[@giannissartzis8943]

[@cedricconner5242]

You can’t get any real as this layout love everything about it I would like to come visit and learn

[@Epiphone1964]

The perfect integration of the layout with the background images, giving a strong sense of horizon, and a world that goes on forever, make this the most realistic, and therefore best, layout I have ever seen... along with the excellent modelling work of course.

[@birdwife589]

looks super realistic!

[@roberttaylor6600]

Welcome back I've missed your videos it's about time, I'm a O gauge guy myself but I enjoy watching your video's.

[@summitmodeltrainvideos4440]

Thanks for your kind comments. My layout is portrayed in Great Model Railroads 2022 by Kalmbach Publishing. It comes out in November.

Awesome runbys! Always loved your layout!

[@TheTrainFan]

Every aspect of your layout is unbelievable, you set the standard

[@kadebruce295]

Wow! A superb layout you got there!

[@christopherorourke6543]

Great layout, has lots of realism to it. I’m an N scale modeler. My N scale railroad is the Pacific West Coast Railroad. I already have scratch built 4 railroad water towers, made an oil tank scratch built for my Southern Pacific GS-4 number 4449 which is my excursion locomotive & the Morning Daylight 10 car set is my excursion train, I also have an N scale Superliner which is the Coast Starlight, 2 cabooses-1 is a Santa Fe & the other is a Southern Pacific bay window, 10 freights cars, 3 Amtrak P42 locomotives. I’m halfway finished with the diesel fuel tanks for the diesel locomotive refueling facility that I’m scratch building.

[@dannybennett7483]

That's a really good lay out. Wow. And thanks for all your hard work.

[@PodunkvilleHomestead]

Way impressive!

[@derekalexander4030]

Fantastic layout and train weathering. Can’t make up my mind, Jack in the box or Taco Bell but I’m definitely getting the banana split from Dairy Queen. Thanks for sharing.

[@LogicRailTech]

Love your modeling Per! Attention to detail and realism is outstanding.

[@perlaursen478]

Thanks Chuck, you can see all your GCP's come to good use :-)

[@flashbang8830]

That layout looks so realistic good job

[@scottmoldenhauer9390]

excellent modeling, presented in a very appealing way visually. all scenes are done nicely making all of them look real. likely one of the best 10 videos of model railroads i've seen on youtube. also no music, thanks so much for that. thanks for posting your top notch model railroad.

[@mackyoung6019]

Very detailed, LOVE your layout! This is a life work.
