The White Pass and Yukon has some narrow gauge diesels that you can check out. They think a couple of them have been moved to Colorado lately. Cool project! Enjoy your vacation and stay safe, Larry.
Blasphemy! Not going to light the layout. Crazy talk! As soon as you made the fancy little boxcar marker light you committed to more blinky lights for the neat little lamps you showed off :) Love all your ideas on the engine. I actually like the long hood but also like the short tail. Since it doesn’t actually exist in real life I would do something that doesn’t really exist or is extremely rare look. Tonner is cool but that shape is ‘normal’. I’ve been working on my tiny railroad that’s been boxed up for decades. So much either I don’t know how to do or don’t remember. I’m amazed at all your work and various skills necessary. Your narration is also very good. Not annoying. Humble. Explain your thoughts as you go. Helps me to see what the process looks like in your head even if I don’t have the skills. Appreciated Sir. Have a nice weekend.
@@bdlii This is the longest comment I have received. Thank you, very much. The current plans do include more blinking lights at the other end of the layout. Not sure what they will be, it depends upon the building. After 30 years away from the model railroading hobby I have found that the skills I had back then were really very limited. Today I spend a lot of time watching and learning from other modelers. That has been a big help for me. Thank you for the kind words about my narration. I have always believed that I have a face for radio and a voice for silent movies. Thanks again for the comments. I do appreciate them. Stay safe - Larry.
Your scratch build modeling is impressive. The transfer structure looks great. I think the long hood forward and short hood rear looked nice. I’m surprised diesel engines are rare on narrow gauge. Was this due to the time period you model? Enjoy your vacation.
Thank you very much for the kind comments. From the little research I have completed it looks like most of the narrow gauge diesel locomotives were the 2 axle variety. They just didn't pull large trains. I will show some photos I have found when I get into showing progress on this project. Thanks for watching and commenting. Stay safe - Larry.
Amazing layout. I always like the 66 tonners. Thanks for sharing. Dave
Thank you Dave!! Yes, GE's 44 and 66 Ton locomotives are amoung my favorites. Thank you for the comment.
Superb and great idea the locomotive scratchbuilding. WOW. Very impressive. The layout looks great. Well done.

Thanks Thom. I will check that out. Thank you!!
Larry, you are creating a work of art! It is so well done and tidy, too. Love the narrow-gauge switcher. Can't wait until the next update.
Stan, Thank you very much! I do appreciate your comments. Stay safe!
Larry it's looking grand

Layout looks good. Locomotive scratch build is nice. Keep up the great videos.
