  • To read and see more about this model railroad layout:
    www.tracksidem...
    Come join us as we interview Mike McGinley at his HO scale Southwestern Pacific and explore the Santa Fe at work as of 1992. This 18 x 22 foot pike is beautifully modeled and offers top-notch railfanning of the AT&SF working the American Southwest, including the mountains of the West and red rock landscapes in the desert as the line moves inland. You'll get to see some of Mike's new updates to the layout. The feature includes piggyback, manifest, and autorack AT&SF trains as well as Amtrak's "Pepsi Can" locomotives and a Metrolink demonstration train.
    Thank you for viewing our TH-cam channel. Don't forget to give us a thumbs up if you enjoyed the video and subscribe if you want more to see model train and prototype videos.

    This gentleman reminds me of the old Model Railroad pros from the 1970s, when the hobby was still thriving...

    Amazingly realistic. The opening scene could easily be mistaken for the real thing.

      Yeah those sound effects are almost surreal while you're looking at a model railroad... Guy's like the Michaelangelo of model railroading,, give him a gymnasium and $250 grand and make the 5th wonder of the world set...

Rail color was bang on, at least where I am. Some of the car weathering was shockingly good(adm car, tanks), pipeload was fantastic.

      Measure the length. Between the poles, utilize model cement to glaze the string, put the weight droop to the string let it dry, then attach it between the poles and it will have the necessary glaze to the wires and add to the realism !!!
