- In this series, I wanted to show a real time appreciation for the Coal Drag Run on the Lyon Valley Northern. During Friday Night Group (FNG) operations this is only one of 5 trains that is running simultaneously in a two hour session.
In Part 2, the locomotves go to the Port Coal Mine and pull loads out put and empties in; also handling the idler cars. The interesting aspect of this operation is working the long srings of cars and sequencing them to open tracks to minimize moves..
Wow, great job, super scenery and really enjoy the operations!!! Thanks again
Glad you enjoyed the layout
That entire coal mine scene with from the bridge on is one of my favorite scenes.
One of mine as well. The bridge is a Walthers double track Warren Truss. I used drywall tape to create the see through roadbed for the trucks.
Excellent. Thanks for the operations insights. Looking forward to part 3.
Part three is up. Operations are what makes this hobby an exciting three dimensional art form in motion. I like the thinking and planning involved.
Great layout & operations. Like the locomotive idle sounds.
CNLVN I am coming back to watch again, has this layout ever been featured in one of the Model Railroad Magazines? Have computer battery issues.
great work on the operations and great looking layout too!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks very much.
I really enjoy your layout,and the other layouts you've done so far.I'm hooked on your cite.And you do a great job on camera.Thanks a lot for taking the time to show us a little part of what we love.And yes everyday is train day
Hi Susan. So glad to have your input to this channel and nice to see your big interest in trains.
hey Chris... excellent op session & kudos to Mrs engineer for doing a great job.
vinny
Thanks Vinny. She operates on several layouts in the Ottawa Area and really enjoys it.
That was great, all the way around. Operation, camera work and your layout. Thanks for sharing.
Your very welcome. Operations on the model railroad is something I never seem to get enough of.
Great, so Realistic I thought it was live . . . Thanks, Great Work.
Glad you liked it Douglas
Beautifully executed! RT
Thanks. It is one of those operations I like to go back to often.
beautiful ops--loved it
Thanks again. Glad you enjoy the channel.
Neat running session.
Thanks
Someday I will have DCC and be able to have this kind of prototypical fun.
DCC sure is a great thing. Really moves the hobby forward.
Sounds great. Must be a Loksound ESU.
Like the consistent Scale Speeds!
You have that right. You have to drive slow especially on a smaller layout
Can you imagine if you could put a small gopro on the front of a train to get a 1st person view of world?
David Weaver It would really be something. It is on my list of future acquisitions. Some folks are using I phones on modified gondolas and flats.
what kind of turn outs are those in this area of the track i cant figure out how all the tracks come together. awesome layout very beautiful wish i had one just like it...
Brendan Berry Hi Brendan. They are code 75 peco threeway turnout at the mine. The rest are number 6. Thanks for the complement.
how long have you been working on model trains for? how long have u been working on this layout? there are many sections of your layout that i wish i could make mine look exactly like it... you have a really great eye for detail and i want to say i am definatly a fan of your layout and movies.. thanks for sharing and the information...
Brendan Berry I have been a model railroader for over 50 years. This last layout is 10 years old. Please use what ever you see. The trick is to take the advice of others. It is like going to school and you will do very well if you love the subject and spend some time on it regularly. Practice makes perfect. Do hands on stuff with others. Meet folks and ask them questions. Shows, conventions, clubs and organizations. Experiment. Some things may not work out but that is OK. Learn from other hobbies like fantasy battle figurines and military model and diorama building.. Glad you like the channel.
whats the idler cars for?
daniel colussi The idler cars are used to reach into the industry. They are used in some cases because the rail is light or in others where locomotives do not fit or are to dangerous to operate.
What is that big red building in the back at 12:44? What is the model name?
The building is a kitbash from a number of old out of production kits ...I think ahm factory buildings

CNLVN It aslo could have been city classics. I got it in a pile of plastic that needed to be built. Added the GE sign and rooft tank details.
Gasp! I read on that link that the LVN is going :( I read in the link that you were selling some thing and if I'm not to late was wondering, are you selling any buildings? Are you selling those BN locos on your youtube home page, and also what rolling stock is available? If you have photos, could you email me?
RustEZZEProductions I have taken down the Lyon Valley Northern. I have been selling off everything and there is some stuff left. I have been selling locally here in Ottawa and did not want to get into the shipping and handling issues at this pont. Especially the structures. Send me your email and we can discuss.
whats is the HO code track?
HO is 1/87 scale. Code refers to the size of the rail. For HO you can get code 100, 83, 75, 70 and 55. This allows you to have rail that fits prototypes for the area you are modelling. Hope this helps.
