Hello again Johnny MISS YOUR VIDEOS VERY MUCH THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE HOBBY LTNH HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY GOD BLESS MY FRIEND ;-)I HEAR A AMTRAK HORN
Beautiful, Johnny! Not only is your work on your railroad some of the best I have seen in O gauge, but your videography and narration of this update is the very best. In a word, inspiring! It was well worth the wait. Bill B.
Such a cool layout! The city I'm from in Southern California actually used to have a depot from all three railroads, though the SF and UP one are the only ones standing as of now. Even now the SP, SF, and UP have still left their mark, and things like old switchtowers and searchlight signal bridges are still around somewhat. This layout looks so prototypical!!
Hey Thank you so much for the kind words!! I've been following your channel for a while and I love your films! As a person who grew up watching The Full Bucketniers back in the day it had a huge hand in what railroads I model. Keep up the great work and I can't wait to see your future projects!
I'm so happy to hear you were directly inspired by the photo curve on my layout! You manage to capture a big layout feel in a modest space, and as always the execution of the layout is spectacularly good.
Wow. Now this is a great video! Great camera work and narration. Your layout is beautiful. From the shots I would swear it was at least twice the size. I love your attention to detail and the overall design. Really wonderful work!
dear god this is, amazing. i model N scale and still this is, wonderful. before i saw an overhead shot of the layout i genuinely thought this was a basement empire. absolutely stunning
This is so cute I like this you did a excellent work keep it up. Plus you made me so happy and laughed little bit because this is so cute and beautiful excellent job
Dude can I say I love how you narrated this? I was so involved in the story, well done with the layout, it looks fantastic. I also appreciate the hololive references. Last but not least, thank you for the shout out on the Atlantic, it was a fun project to do 😁
This is the most realistic 3 rail layout that I have ever seen in my 80 years. The photo opportunities never give away the compact size. Terrific modeling.
I’m blown away at all you’ve done in such a small space. It feels like a much bigger layout but not overly crammed and was well planned and executed. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing.
Wow! Johnny, you are an amazing modeler and talented storyteller! Thank you for sharing your layout with us all. Thank you for being such a great ambassador for our hobby and 3 Rail O Scale. Thank you for pushing the envelope and being an inspiration to us all. One of these days my GS-1 will have to visit your railroad. All the my friend! -Ricky
Hi johnny. Very interesting story in presenting your trains and the landscape. I thought it was very creative and I enjoyed it very much. I give you an A. I enjoyed the history of the trains add the different background on the trains you were running. Nice detail on the weathering of the cars. Please try to speak a little slower. Don't rush the descriptions of the scenery or the layout itself. I found it to be more interesting than just the average video. Storyline was very creative. Congrats on a great video and thank you for sharing this with all of us!
Excellent job! Both the layout and video presentation were expertly executed. Thank you for including the wide shot so we can all see the overall track plan.
Wow! For this to be in such a small footprint, you have certainly packed a myriad of details and scenes! Beautiful work and you certainly should be proud of what you have accomplished! The fact that you made FastTrack not look anything like FastTrack is an accomplishment itself but you have knocked it out of the park!! I’m primarily a postwar Lionel collector/operator who has little desire for much scenery but seeing something like what you have pulled off makes me think when I build another layout.
Bravo! 👏 the level of detail is phenomenal! Such an incredible use of space. Your backdrop with the mountain is absolutely gorgeous. The way you narrated is so well done. Amazing video all around! - Ryan
Wow! All those scenes from a relatively small layout? This is a great video presentation of all the work you have done. I love everything from the superelevated curves to the rock-steady video close up shots. Your narration tells a great story and your modeling and video skills are unique. I rarely watch TH-cam vids greater than 10 minutes in length but this one held my attention for the entire time. Well done! TJ
I never would have guessed 6’x12’ for your layout. Truly amazing and I’m sure John Allen of the Gorre & Daphetid would applaud you not only for your hard work but for the use of visual deception to make the scenes not only seem larger-than-life but with how much detail is packed in there. Bravo! On a side note, perhaps you should consider adding some catenary for your electric locomotives and perhaps even some boxcars and other rolling stock from Mexico, the Northeastern US (BAR) and Canada (I’ve seen plenty of videos where CN and CP boxcars make some visits to the sunny sunbaked lands of the Southwestern United States.). I’m not sure if Mexican engines have ever visited the U.S. but I’m sure it would be interesting to see an NdeM ‘Niagra’ or an ex-NKP 2-8-2 burning oil rounding the curve for a little visit. On another note, have you considered perhaps enlarging your layout? Perhaps adding a spur to “the outside world” which would allow you to add more industries and the like for your railroad?
One of the best and most detail layouts ive ever seen. Love the storytelling and filmaking of your video as well, really draws in the viewers attention. Keep up the fantastic work!!!
I am not a three rail fan, but a layout as this gets my highest respect! Realistic speed instead of warp speed, a well scenicked and detailed world, and last but not least great camerawork and editing. Thanks to all this and to a grand scale the result is stunning.
Hey Johnny great video THANKS FOR SHARING IT with those who love our hobby I would like to reflect on when I was a kid growing up in Brooklyn NY we had tyco trains for Christmas if it wasn't for TYCO there wouldn't be this awesome hobby I ran the wheels off my Chattanooga Choo Choo set I just finished remodeling my train room now I have a new N scale amtrak layout that can fit all eleven of my trains including my amtrK MAINTENANCE OF WAY TRAIN Keep doing what you are doing Johnny and continue to inspire many more who want to be win this hobby GOB BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ;-)
You are an absolute master Johnny. This is a level of detail and beauty few people are able to achieve even after a lifetime of being in this hobby. You should be very proud not only of this wonderful video but your amazing layout as well 👍
Audamus, great to see you are back! I just want to compliment you on how you have made the most of a modest space to squeeze maximum trainage into it! You use of scenery to interrupt sight lines and increase perceived depth is great. On the production side you videography, sound, and narration all ranked up there with professional videos! Kudos! 😁
Spectacular video and layout! A bigger gauge than the one I've got my models in but an absolutely fantastic layout and one I'd love to make for myself at some point.
Nicely done! I remember reading articles of well detailed small layouts years ago. It’s refreshing to see that creative energy is still alive. Thanks for sharing.
Very impressed with your video. You would never know that it's a 6 x 10. Your camera angles are perfect. And the dialog was well written. Great job and keep up the great work.
Incredible!! I was completely mesmerized by your level of detail, narration, and videography. It takes someone with many different talents to not only create such an impressive layout but to share it in such a professional manner. I’m hooked and looking forward to future videos.
Very nice! You have an incredible layout, for sure. It is amazing how much you fit in a smaller footprint. I don't have the discipline to create all of that scenery. Scenery is my nemesis, which is why my layout never looks 'complete'. An excellent video Keep them coming.
Wow! Most amazing 6x10 I've ever seen! Philadelphia? Mr. Rogers was from Latrobe, worked out of Pittsburgh. Wow! Most amazing 6x10 I've ever seen! (it needed to be said twice!)
4:58 I can’t wrap my brain around what the “questionable activities” could be that involves a priest, 3 nuns, a construction manager, and a guy in a suit standing around a pile of dirt. Did they just bury someone? Is that what it implies? I might have to call this guy’s house and ask (jk)😂
@@Audamus I had a 4x12 foot layout but then upgraded to a 6x12 because I wanted to run O60 curves which I’m now doing. I have 1 big oval around edges of layout and a trolley line within. I want to add some switch outs and put some O48 curves inside O60 but that would involve moving some of my woodland scenics building and I’m hesitant to do that. What do you think?
The one thing that ruins the realism is the third rail. With modern RC technology, when will the hobby convert to radio control and get rid of electrified rails?
I see homie is a fan of vtubers and anime as well. Welcome to the community
Hello again Johnny MISS YOUR VIDEOS VERY MUCH THANKS FOR ALL YOU DO FOR THE HOBBY LTNH HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY GOD BLESS MY FRIEND ;-)I HEAR A AMTRAK HORN
He Awakens!!! Drinks on me!!!
This is a level of detail rarely seen in the 3-rail hobby. You should be proud of your efforts on such a beautiful layout!
Super Nice best I have seen for a small lay out and many larger.
Beautiful, Johnny! Not only is your work on your railroad some of the best I have seen in O gauge, but your videography and narration of this update is the very best. In a word, inspiring! It was well worth the wait. Bill B.

Vtubers are probably the last people I'd expect to be on an O-scale layout. But still awesome to see. Beautiful layout.
I'm so happy to hear you were directly inspired by the photo curve on my layout! You manage to capture a big layout feel in a modest space, and as always the execution of the layout is spectacularly good.
Audamus has set a new standard of layout tour videos that few will be able to match. What an amazing video.
Wow. Now this is a great video! Great camera work and narration. Your layout is beautiful. From the shots I would swear it was at least twice the size. I love your attention to detail and the overall design. Really wonderful work!
Another great video!
Good things come to those who wait...and this film was certainly worth it. Very well done and professionally narrated.
👍👍👍
I wanna see it in person~
you already have lol
@@Audamus but I wanna see it again
Awesome layout buddy and it was great to meet you at Chris's house the other night
Thank you and same goes to you! Hopefully we can chat more next time we meet again~!!
dear god this is, amazing. i model N scale and still this is, wonderful. before i saw an overhead shot of the layout i genuinely thought this was a basement empire. absolutely stunning
You have a real talent Audamus. Your layout is incredible. Amazing video 👍
Wow 🤩
This is so cute I like this you did a excellent work keep it up. Plus you made me so happy and laughed little bit because this is so cute and beautiful excellent job
This is the best layout I have ever seen. Great job. I have a 4x8 HO layout, but it’s nothing like this. This is awesome.
Dude can I say I love how you narrated this? I was so involved in the story, well done with the layout, it looks fantastic. I also appreciate the hololive references. Last but not least, thank you for the shout out on the Atlantic, it was a fun project to do 😁
Nice to see another Video, its been too long since the last one

I’m blown away at all you’ve done in such a small space. It feels like a much bigger layout but not overly crammed and was well planned and executed. Keep up the great work and thanks for sharing.
What a pleasure watching the video. The voice over and short story telling kept me watching.
The intro alone to this video was amazing
Very nice!

I would like to a expansion of the layout. Adding another section to it. That I think would make for a great video.

The amount of detail and realism in this small space is amazing! Great job
You’ve done a great job - it looks at least twice as big as it really is!
Great video Johnny! I love the detail and power on your layout!
Very perfect and pretty trains
Excellent video!
Man mister tree what outstanding job on video and layout . So well done indeed

Yay new tour
Very nice scenic layout! Definitely impressive.
A great job for that given space!!!! Grew up in So Cal so love your RR's!!! Thanks

15:25 talk about a tone shift 😂 great layout, everything is masterfully done. I can't wait to see where you take your skills.
He lives! 😂
Wonderful tour, my man. I hope to be able to do something similar with my own layout down the line.
Boy nice video! Great scenery!
Beautiful layout!
Awesome video Johnny, love the narration, segments, and detailed explanations. More over David Attenborough!

Nicely done 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Really enjoy the chanel and all the videos and u have a great layout
Nicely done! I remember reading articles of well detailed small layouts years ago. It’s refreshing to see that creative energy is still alive. Thanks for sharing.
He returns! Great video Johnny!
I enjoy
You’ve ma gaged to capture that Norman Rockwell artist feeling with your beautiful train layout
Trully an outstanding Layout that encompasses the kind of small town i grew up in on Syosset, Long Island in my youth.
Very enjoyable video, well produced. Great looking layout. Impressive with what you've done in s smaller space. Thanks for sharing.
Phenomenal video. I love the overall feel and presentation of the video and of course all of the updates. Hats off to you!
Wonderful presentation! You have packed a lot of detail into your layout and are great at capturing it on camera. Tell us about your sidewalks.
Really enjoyed your layout video Johnny. It looks so much bigger than it is especially the way you’re able to film it. Nice attention to detail.
This is a great video. Congrats! You succeeded in making your layout appear larger than it actually is. This is awesome!!
Awesome video! Crazy to see how the layout has changed since you first started. Excited to see what you have in store for the future!
Wow wow what an incredible achievement this is I love it when people do a lot in a small space for that scale and this is one fine example
really really nice layout and videoography!
Very impressed with your video. You would never know that it's a 6 x 10. Your camera angles are perfect. And the dialog was well written. Great job and keep up the great work.

great layout thank you for sharing and giving us a verbal tour
Spectacular!

Fantastic work!

I like how nice and calm the video is overall and so the appearance of the "SEGA" boxcar completely threw me off
O Scale trains are cool and all, but what about O scale cars, that work?
11:08 *realizes its an opel blitz and, knowing the time period, is heavily concerned about who the owner is*
So when’s the next run session?
I lost my mind at "questionable activities " 😂🤣☠️
Great video. Love your podcast. What size is this layout?
Thank you so much and thanks for listening to our show. The Layout is 6x10 feet

Sorry for some of the misspelling ;-)
FIRST
beautiful layout however too much talking details instead running trains
Isn't that often the case?
The one thing that ruins the realism is the third rail. With modern RC technology, when will the hobby convert to radio control and get rid of electrified rails?
You know there 2 rail o scale as well
