    Personally not a fan of the "struggling to run" sound this loco makes. But I am sure it makes for nostalgia for people who grew up with them. I just prefer the sound of modern Diesels or classic steam

    @michaelscotto1917 2 года назад

    Our round Robin modelers group visited this just before Covid. It has to be in the top three club railroads in the country. These guys model actual locations and the attention to detail is nothing short of excellent. They have their own 3D printer and made the Jim Thorpe station and other challenging architecture. The track plans are true to the prototype as well. If you ever have a chance to see this, there's lots more to see beyond the videos, GO SEE IT IN PERSON! You won't be disappointed.

    I absolutely love this and can’t wait to see it in person. I believe that this is every model railroad builders dream, it’s mine anyway, in O Scale. The work on this is to be fully commended and I can see that it’s not completed yet. It’s an overall A+++++++++

    A very nice video and layout. Out of curiosity, what sort of camera did you put on the train? My local model railroad club (in Newtown Square) uses a camera on one of our locomotives, though it provides more of a live feed than an actual recording.

    Great looking club layout and thanks for the video. There is one thing that annoys me on these really well done layouts - why do they leave the track nails in place? Once the ballast is glued down you can pull the nails and the track stays in place. Been doing that for years - in the hobby on the HO side for 65+ years. On video like this they stick out like so many sore thumbs.
