    Billboard reefers make the train so interesting. I collect as many as I can. It’s a shame that they were discontinued in real life.

    After seeing that majorly tarnished brass track , I'm tempted to search for one of my many spare MDC/Roundhouse Box cabs w/ track cleaning equipment and ship it to ya to take care of that funky rail crud,lol.

      Lol, it's definitely a need of a good old-fashioned cleaning. I usually keep the track pretty clean and the locomotives run really well. Trouble is recently I've been so busy with work and traveling I've not had time to do so.

    Got ya on the busy part. Attacked my GScale this weekend. hadn't run it most of the summer,& couldn't see the track for grass/weeds. Some of those billboard cars are not seen much anymore 👍😊

      Been very busy since changing jobs. When I retire I would love to use G scale for some garden railroading.

    One of the guys I follow on TikTok is a member there. He was there with a few of the TikTok train nerds

    You need to put plexiglass around the edges of the layout a few inches above the edge to prevent derailed trains from going to the floor, I use brass track too, just keep it clean

      One of these days I want to do that. This weekend I will probably be spending some time cleaning track.

    What I Would Like to See Is All 3 Of the Layouts Running At Once wanna see the Trackplan.

    • @VintageRoadRail
      @VintageRoadRail  ปีที่แล้ว

      Im not sure I follow on running all 3 layouts. Want to see the track plan for the old Atlas layout?

    • @elleryparsons2433

      Can I see you guys Run All 3 Layouts and See the Trackplan as Well.

      Yeah I was just getting ready to say the same thing. Would like to see the track plan I really like it and think it would work great for n scale. A link to an overhead picture a hand drawing anything would work. Lol really appreciate the videos. I haven't been into train stuff since I was in my twenties. I'm in my '50s now and want to get back into it.

    Who makes that little red engine shed?

    • @VintageRoadRail
      @VintageRoadRail  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      If you're talking about the little red one on the corner I'm not 100% sure but I think it's lifelike.

    • @VintageRoadRail

      You're talking about the big one by the turntable I don't have any clue. I bought this sleigh out and it came with it. Lol

    Are you on DC or DCC in this video?

    • @VintageRoadRail
      @VintageRoadRail  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      DC. I like having the option to do DC or DCC but for the most part I just run DC stuff on this layout.
