    Thanks for sharing your time at Altoona Big G. It's great to see Roy. I'm sure, as I am, everybody has been wondering what He has been up to. Travelling I see. Take care. Sean.

      He was on his 6 week traveling for the year. He has made it back home safely and about to start his videos up again too. Thanks for the comment and stay safe out there.

    Thanks to Roy Smith he motivated me to get back into the hobby after a 30 plus year hiatus. I plan to be in Altoona for the September 2024 N Scale Weekend.
    It’s almost embarrassing to mention that I live about 3 miles from the Blair County Convention Center.
    I’m hoping to meet you, Roy, DJ, Todd, but I understand Roy is not well (have not heard an update in a while). You all have such incredible layouts and have done so much for the community!
    I am fired up about removing all my junk that accumulated in my layout area and finishing my benchwork.

      I am glad to see that Roy has inspired someone else in this fine Community. I am planning on being there again this year for the event. I am hoping to do my layout tour of the show, as there are many to see at this show.
      I know I will be helping Todd Treaster for his open house Layout tour this year as well. That may mean less time for me at the show. If you get the chance to visit Todd's Layout, I highly recommend seeing his layout in person. Please feel free to introduce yourself to me at the show or Todd's layout.
      I greatly appreciate the kind comments and compliments. Stay safe out there and I am glad you N-joyed the video.

    Thank you so much for this video, Big G. I want you to know how much I appreciate it and enjoyed it. It was a real pleasure to meet you at N-Scale Weekend. Hopefully, we'll meet again soon. Now I've got to get busy and together a video of my own about Altoona, having gotten back to Panama just over a week ago. Take care, my friend. ...Roy

      @@seanpacificrailroad3700 Sean, it's always nice to travel to the States. When I'm there, I get to go to train clubs, shows, and stores, none of which exist here in Panama. And I get to hang out with friends in the hobby. Here in Panama, I'm the only model railroader in the whole country, so far as I know. Yep, trips to the States sure are fun. ...Roy

Then while I was there, I got the opportunity to go see Todd Treaster's Layout. It was an amazing trip, and I won't forget anytime soon. Thanks for the comment and stay safe out there.
