Wow! So cool! I just found your channel and subscribed. I enjoy the slot cars running around the layout. They add a great visual dimension to the overall aspect of the operation. I've always loved slot cars and had a number of sets, when I was growing up and I've added to them, over the years. I wanted to integrate slot cars into my layout, but It is hard to find 1/48 scale slots. I got a couple cars, that were included in a 1/32 set that I picked up, but not the track. I just cleaned out my slot car room, after I had a bunch of stuff stored inside. I have some of my Revell, Eldon, Aurora and Motorific tracks set-up and running, although the Revell is tough to put together tightly, since it is almost 60 years old and the tabs are a bit brittle. I probably could have used some silicone on the tabs, but I didn't think about it. I show them at the end of my last video, Minor Foam Delay, on my Chooch's Trains channel. They need some 'tweaking', before I can include them while running, in my videos. Either way, you have a fantastic layout. An excellent video, for sure.
Thanks for your comment. I would think Lionel O gauge 1:43 and Carrera slot cars that are 1:43 are a match. HO trains are 1:87 and so-called HO lot cars are usually 1:64
@@lakesuperiorvideos It would be cool to find slot cars that fit into my post-war through late fifties-early sixties theme. The small, probably 1/43 cars that were added to the 1/32 set that I bought, were modern Trans Am's, so they wouldn't fit into the era that I run, but maybe no one would actually notice. 1/64 is basically S scale, but it might work.

Every time I watch the trains run in your videos I am amazed by all the hard work you put in and the incredible detail you have achieved! Great video!
Thank you for your comment. I had a lot of cold snowy days for several winters to do that.
Pretty Cool.!!!
Thanks for your comment.
The best of both worlds. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your comment.
wow that is so cool! looks like i have road construction project comin to my layout!
Thank you for your comment, and good luck with your project!
Very nice layout you have, I'm getting ready to start a new layout similar to this. You gave me some inspiration.
Thank you for your comment. We like the alternative entertainment. Sometimes we cover the slot track with black foam strips like new blacktop.
Love the passenger train stopping at the station!
Thank you for your comment. It is hard to "direct" this, to get drivers to pass by the train, to coordinate video clips and the audio, etc.
@lakesuperiorvideos I can understand! I do aspire to have a setup similar to yours when I have the space! You've done great, cheers!
Nice
