Im 89 years old and watching this actually brought tears to my eyes as it brought back my childhood years when we kids use to go from house to house on Christmas and look at all the train layouts my neighbors use to set up. God bless Santa Claus and thank you so much for a trip down memory lane.
Dave, Your Lionel Train Villige is so Stupendous, it makes me think of all of the Great Old Grand Department Store Christmas Widows, Blessings to you and Yours.
We just found your video whiletrawling TH-cam, what a joy! Great effort and a fantastic result; with Christmas 2023 coming up we will get our grandkids to watch and drool. Thank you brightening up our day.
Dave, Last year my very young granddaughter and I discovered your Christmas Train videos and both fell in love with them! She's been so entertained with them all through this past year. She is now 18 months old. Last year Papaw decided she needed a Christmas Train around our tree. Following Christmas Papaw was hooked and now sitting at 6 Lionel Trains. This year we've taken a shot at doing our own Christmas Train Village and have it on TH-cam. She's delighted and loves watching Papaw's videos but of course still loves watching yours as well. Dave Hohman is a household name around here! lol When my daughter (her Mom) and I finished putting this altogether I said "Well we're not at Dave Hohman's level but I do think it's TH-cam worthy! So we went for it! Just wanted to share our story with you and let you know how much we've enjoyed your Christmas Train Videos! Simply over the top amazing!
I will say one thing you get better every year you added on stuff to the village. I do see stuff not to scale in some areas like the Hugh police man. I hope you keep it up year round to enjoy it 365 days a year.
Thanks for watching and check out this year’s video. None of it is to scale but that’s the way it is. 😊 Leaving it up permanently would defeat the purpose of keeping it special for Christmas. If it was up all the time it would become ordinary and that is not my desire. Putting it up and taking it down are all part of Christmas for me. glad you enjoyed it.
That's a nice layout. I loved watching the trains running around the layout. I enjoyed seeing that Hamms beer car. I have Lionel trains from the 1950s. I have a layout in the basement that I built for the grandkids to enjoy. A smile is all I need to see on their faces. Thanks for the great video. 👍🚂😀
I watched both of your videos started with the newest one love them both. I have an idea next year you and your wife should sit in the chairs dressed up as Santa and Mrs Claus and slow down one of the train so the GoPro can pick it up making it look you two are just enjoying everything on the tracks. Thanks so much Happy New Year
Fantastic! I wish I had that much space! I don't so I’ve decided to go with N gauge train and N scale landscape. I am able to devote a 2 X 8 foot area to that and believe I will be able to fit everything I want into that area.
Wonderful! I throughly enjoyed it, and loved the music too! What’s the tune that’s played in the last couple of minutes? Also, how do you handle a derailment in one of the tunnels?🤔
I noticed you didn't allow your wife to help, haha! You've got to let me know where you buy your coffee! Beautiful, beautiful set up! Thank you and Merry Christmas 2022 from a Boston Bruins fan in RI.

Truly remarkable! Extremely well planned and executed. I wish I could do this too!

Thanks for the Timelapse Video. Nice to see how it is being built. Often times you see a layout and not seeing how it is put together.
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed the video.

Great video and layout. Thanks for sharing.

Looks great! Love the Oshie jersey too, even though it’s the wrong team. Go caps!
Fantastic!! I love your family working together to build some brilliant Christmas Displays and railroads. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Awesome layout. You know what would look cool? Do a starry night blanket or sheet to hang over the hockey memorabilia as a set backdrop. Just an idea.
Amazing work Dave. Beautiful!
Fantastic! I wish I had that much space! I don't so I’ve decided to go with N gauge train and N scale landscape. I am able to devote a 2 X 8 foot area to that and believe I will be able to fit everything I want into that area.

Also, how do you handle a derailment in one of the tunnels?🤔
THIS IS AMAZING. LOVE IT😊
wow thats amazing
I have only one hugh metel train set from the 1930's. I lost the transformer to it so it has just been sitting in its original box all these years.
Transformers for it are easy to find get one and get that train on the tracks. Thanks for watching and check out this year’s video.
Well Done !! Congratulations
Phenomenal job! Just subscribed and glad I did! This is the layout my wife's and I's dreams are made of! We'll done
Thanks. I’m in the process of doing it again this year. New timelapse video coming up in a couple of weeks.
Absolutely incredible!
Superb work, man. Thank you for your efforts and enjoy this video. Watched multiple times!!!!
awesome
Amazing job
OMG. That's dope. 😍👍
This is wonderful. Thank you.
Where do you store all of this?
That is massive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LOVE IT!!!!! Is this a permanent layout ? All O scale?
Get’s put up and taken down each year. It is O scale. I’m happy that you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
Wow, do you have an auxiliary generator outside to tun everything ?
Extra generator is not a bad idea. Power company likes me this time of year. I’m happy that you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
I noticed you didn't allow your wife to help, haha! You've got to let me know where you buy your coffee! Beautiful, beautiful set up! Thank you and Merry Christmas 2022 from a Boston Bruins fan in RI.
You didn’t look very close she pops up every now and then.
@traveling_tidbit
What a labor of love! It's incredible, well done! How many days/ hours does it take you?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Great set! The family probably have great memories of your trains. When are you turning it over to the next generation?
They can have it when I’m dead. 😊 That’s when I will stop setting it up.
wow i better get busy, mine is tiny
You know what sucks having to put it all away in a few weeks😄
Taking it down actually makes it more special the next Christmas. I’m happy that you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
We just found your video
