- I attend the October Great Scale Train Show for the 2023. In this video I show the DC Area Independent Hi-Railers, the Circus Model Builders O Gauge layout and The Baltimore Society of Model Engineers O Scale 2 rail layout.
I'm pleased to announce that Dakman Productions has now joined the Trainz partnership program for the long term. You get $10 off any purchase from Trainz by using the Dakman code.

Fantastic model railway show, interesting control of the locomotives. Very nice layouts and this steam train with the many carriages. Thanks for sharing and have a nice week.
Glad you enjoyed it
Really cool of them to treat you with a guest pass!!!!! Awesome coverage. Great to see you brother!! Hope raible to connect sometime soon!🫵💯👍✌️
I agree the club was really nice to bring me in as a guest. Just a heads-up my HO video from the show will be up around 4pm tomorrow
@@Dakman outstanding!!! I await it. 😁🫵☝️✌️
Cool footage Shawn.
Thanks much
Always enjoyed this club however I don’t think it’s right to deny new members from joining the club just because you don’t have modules to contribute.
You will find that all of the O gauge clubs have the requirements. The reason behind it is so there are new modules in place when older members decide to retire and leave the club. If they didn't have the requirements the club would slowly shrink to nothing. I hope that explains why modules are a requirement. Most of the clubs even help you build them.
@@Dakman Thank you for the explanation Shawn, however I also think that clubs should understand that some folks may not have the space to build or store the modules. Also some people may not have the abilities to build modules for various reasons also.
Great trains, the only thing is, I personally have never been a big fan of O Scale. Something about tracks with 3 rails doesn't seem realistic to me. Plus boxcars being short in height, Lionel is good for that look, looking like toy trains more than models. I have always been an H.O. scale guy. I never understood what other model railroaders find so fascinating about Lionel and 3 railed track. And the prices are insane. I must admit H.O. is getting expensive too. Real railroad tracks doesn't have 3 rails. Why can't they design O scale to run on tracks like H.O. two rails for more realistic looks.
I do have a HO video from the same show. The HO clubs put on a great show. There are O scale two rail trains but not as popular. Both Atlas and MTH has made 2 rail versions in the past. Research the Rio Grande railroad. You will find that they had special dual gauge yards. These yards would have 3 rails that could accommodate both the standard gauge and narrow gauge trains on the same track. However I know what you mean that most of the Railroads don't have 3 rails. It's a long O gauge tradition that you don't have have to worry about reverse loops with 3 rail.
