Great layout. I really like seeing trains running continuously instead of focusing on yard work and switching. Really nice, hope you get years of enjoyment out of this set up.
bravo and well done ,,,im in the process making a laout the same size on my art desk ,,good to see the detail and how much you can do with a a small layout ,very nice
Great looking railroad Im starting mine early next yeah plan to use the same track plan but plan to double track the no 8 and just make it a bit longer it to around 8 ft .
A very nice video and layout. I have plans to expand my own HO scale layout, though as I'll be modeling a 1940s-50s steam-era mountain railroad town, I don't think it will look quite as modern as yours.
Cool! Colorful scenery and good track plan. That looks like a Bachmann GP50 hi-nosed unit. Maybe add a track that goes off the layout. You never know when you might want to expand it - and what you have looks too good to ditch. An, "out track," leaves the door open to future expansion.
Unfortunately i dont have the tools nor the time to expand it for a few years. Im in college away from home so i can only work on the layout over longer breaks (also why i havent made any update videos on it). The layout base was a gift from a friend's in-law who didnt want it anymore. i got the track, wiring, base board, and molding but i did all the scenery and ballasting myself. Maybe i will expand it someday but as of now its going to have to stay small and easy to store. Thanks though.
@@dollin9515 - Tommy Thomason's " out track " idea may be similar to an interchange track where a connection to another railroad is simulated - you could add & remove cars for a train to pick up or drop off. British modelers have also referred to it as a "fiddle spur".
This is a great looking layout! It's inspiring me to think about what I might be able to build over time. 3ft x 5 ft is a probably all I've got room for too. Congratulations on building this! Just curious... how long did it take you?
I actually got the base of the layout from a friend's in-law who didnt want it. The only things done on it was the molding, paint, side boards and wiring. The scenery was the only thing i really had to do but i got most of it done in one night and took an extra week to get it exactly the way i wanted it. Thanks but honestly most of the credit shouldnt go to me haha. I DID build an ho scale layout on my own when i was younger, it took me a year and a half to get that one to where this n scale layout is but i was also new to the hobby and used a lot of scraps and weird materials i would avoid if i had to do it all over again. That layout was also 4 by 8 with two disconnected layers.
that is a very nice layout. there is a lot of action for such a small layout. I made the mistake of putting in too much scenery and not enough track on mine.
Personally i like more scenery than track but im still glad i got this thing. I got this layout for free as a board with the track laid and the terrain shaped and painted.
Can a steam locomotive clear the turns ? New to the hobby im inspired by this layout , wanna try it out with a Different scenic theme but I heard steam locomotives can derail off too much curve on the track
Yea steam engines have issues with that. Theres a lot of factors that go into it including wheel diameter, speed, curve tightness, but mainly the number of axels/wheels that done move. I suggest you learn the naming convention for steam locomotives if you havent already. A 4-6-2 has 4 wheels in the front that turn, 6 wheels in the middle for power that do not turn (3 on each side), and 2 in the back to turn. Its hard to tell which locomotives of certain brands and models will make certain turns but generally the fewer axels in the middle the tighter turn it can make. Good luck
I can but I'm away from home for college. I do have another video on my channel on it but these are really more just so i can send the videos to friends as links so they may not be the best.
No it isnt (and dont worry about that ) The visual difference between dc and dcc is that in dc the controller controls the track speed while dcc controllers control individual train speed
One of the best in a long time...looping figure 8 and oval with simple scenery..easy to watch..
Those terrain models look really textured and detailed and I could stare at them all day!
A deceptively clever layout that caters well to interesting scenery. Just great. Thanks.
Great layout. I really like seeing trains running continuously instead of focusing on yard work and switching. Really nice, hope you get years of enjoyment out of this set up.
Super maqueta y super circulaciones. Tienes mi LIKE.🚂🚂👍
What a great layout.
Thanks for sharing 👍
Greetings Joe 😊
AWESOME!!! Keep up the good work.
I love small layouts, great video, thank you!
The best, excellent % nice layout. You are so creativeeeee....👍👌✌
Awesome layout for such a small space....like the double outer track and inner figure 8 which addds depth to the layout rather than being flat oval...
Dude this is super cool
The track design is awesome. Plenty of interest for building and running.
bravo and well done ,,,im in the process making a laout the same size on my art desk ,,good to see the detail and how much you can do with a a small layout ,very nice
Very nice and sounds smooth I hope to someday do the scenery during retirement

Nice job, smooth running.
Excellent. Way Groovy!
Outstanding and beautiful 🙂
Great layout!

Spectacular N scale train’s layout!Maybe will make a N scale empire.
It's awesome!
Just runnin’ trains! Just runnin’ trains!
That's some good modeling, and nicely done camerawork as well.

Nice. I would Loved to do that.
Nice layout. I always liked the cheapo high hood GP40.
Me too. The ho scale version was my first locomotive and last year when i started n scale it was my first in n scale
Beautiful layout
👌 nice 👌 real nice...👍☘🇮🇪

Aku like 👍👍👍👍👍bos
Absolutely beautiful layout. Really well done. Now work on your video skills a bit. Cheers!
Ireally like your layout, but i didn't get to see as much as i'd like, could you do a longer vid?
I can but I'm away from home for college. I do have another video on my channel on it but these are really more just so i can send the videos to friends as links so they may not be the best.
First 😎
Love it! I need help with a layout track plan like this one please? Let me know and I’ll compensate.
Sorry i dont do services like that. Plus the only thing i didnt build on this layout was the track, wiring, and board. I only did the scenery.
I would like to purchase it how much is it
Its not for sale lol
Is this a dcc layout. ( I'm a newbie sorry)
No it isnt (and dont worry about that )
The visual difference between dc and dcc is that in dc the controller controls the track speed while dcc controllers control individual train speed
Ok thank you. I guess I need to do some more research. It's an awesome layout.@@dollin9515
Scale N kok mirip scale 87( HO)
N scale layout 3ft × 5ft .📹🚆N scale.
Nice video. Like me
Love it! I hope mine will turn out as nice!
