In this video, I participated in the open house at Carquinez Model Railroad Society in running a passenger train. There were so many to see and it was so much fun seeing the various passenger and commuter trains from around the world. I saved my commuter train for last. The Legacy 10-Car San Francisco BART train. Enjoy!
Over and Under...so many trains in this mountain.

San Francisco Model BART Subway Part 3 - HO Scale
Просмотров 6246 месяцев назад
In this video, is the long-awaited progress of the first mainline track and the first test run. My sincerest apologies for the delay. I will admit that building under my layout was not easy and some areas required difficult bending and reaching. I'm so glad the hardest part is now done.👍🏾😁 I also did not add any vocal narrative so you may visually enjoy the video to the fullest. Thanks for view...

I know this might be a dumb question, but do you use normal HO tracks, or you have some waterproof ones? I have some piko track and i really like the idea. Anyway, love your layout and verry impressive. Truley amazing.
@_n._o_t_h_i_n_g_ this is not a dumb question at all. I had to ask the same question to the person before me, when I wanted to start. I use Peco Code 100 Nickel Silver Concrete track. Thanks for the kind words and thank for viewing.
@@blakrootz Thank you! :)
Great train, very nice sound.🎥👍👍👍🙋♂❤
@@wolfgangpfeilergartenbahnd6530 thanks
That is so cool. I love model trains but never owned any. I'm just in love with that Bart train lol. Peace man
@@bigsteven2180 thanks
I confess.... I'm a little jealous,lol. I had seen the newer Bart cars by Rapido, but they are way out of my budget,lol.
I have those on pre-order. I eventually want to create a comparison video between Rapido and Walthers.
@@blakrootz Sweet! I look forward to that video!.
NICE!
@@rraddena thank you
@@blakrootz i’ll send you a bill, lol
@@blakrootz I can’t wait to get my set of BART from Rapido.
"Train will not stop please stand clear "
Oooo l like this
@@Rhythmandgray thanks
that subway scene is amazing!
@@mysticrailroad thank you
Great video James! Love seeing the action from my fellow rails at the Crockett club and also excellent consists of passenger trains and even some freights! Also big shout out to the CMRS members that maintain the layout and installed those really nice grade crossing signals that work!
Great video and a very nice train parade. Thanks for showing and best regards.🚂🚂❤❤❤❤🙋♂
Nice running!
@@JosephMusgrove thanks
Great video!
@@zenontrainstrucks9433 thank you
Gotta love that high speed train in Crockett at about 9:30 in the clip. It is a Czech Republic Railjet train.
@skyrider4230 yeah, that was a really cool 😎 one. I think it helped steal the show. Thanks Marty.
@@blakrootz FB still won't let me Like any of your posts. I sent in an error issue twice but as usual, FB doesn't respond...:(.
Kaum den Sound gehört habe ich bereits nach 6 Sekunden ausgemacht.
🙃
That’s incredible!
@@jayducharme thank you
I found it funny in the original when there's no train in that scene. They could have drawn a steam engine and a Diesel engine or something
Lol. So true, I guess we are under the assumption that the conjunction junction train is being pulled by a steam engine as kids love to see the steam/smoke. I can say I tried my best to replicate the speed of this train to be in rhythm with the jingle.
Beautiful!
@TheFigsTravel thank you
Great layout and use of space. Congratulations!
@victorzaballa3149 thanks. Stay tuned for next year's 7th anniversary show. There is so much more to come.
Wild!
Nice
@@Idovideos-g7q thanks
That looks great👍
@paulmavric887 thanks for viewing. I hope to provide new video soon.
If the track is left down all year, going from the coldest to the warmest and back to the coldest weather, how do you prevent buckling ?
@alannewman85 only two flex tracks at a time are soldered. There is a gap when the next set of tracks are added to allow movement.
@@blakrootzbrilliant, thanks.
No love for Lompoc? 😢😅 our surf beach station is neat! Awesome layout though!!!
@Flying90 thanks for viewing. Sorry, it's not a stop on the layout, but you're right, the beaches are awesome.
@@blakrootz all of your videos are super top notch!! Thanks for sharing with all of us! 🤘🏼
Great looking scene and scene, where did you find the lighted aparstuses...I know a company that produces the best product East Coast Circuits
@@paulmaillet6128 it was customized
A delight to watch thank you most impressive.
@trevorbax9379 thanks again for viewing
Fantastic layout!! And definitely not “too fast”. Love the speed - adds excitement! Thanks for the video
Thank you, good sir. Glad you enjoyed it.
Superb , Great back drop also.
@@hovermotion thanks for viewing and the kind words.
Awesome 👍😎👍
What layout is this??
@@Amayas_G just Trains Model Train Store
Fantastic video ❤👍Have a nice Sunday and best wishes
@wolfgangpfeilergartenbahnd6530 thank you
I have a HO scale garden railway that is a small fraction of yours. I run my engines with battery power using radio control. It works good. I used some old tyco track that is rusty, and it looks prototypical (although my RR is the farthest thing from modeling anything in real life) Track maintenance involves a garden hose.
That's very cool. I would love to find out more information on how you have them battery powered. i just subscribed to your channel. Thanks for viewing my page.
@@blakrootz I avoid Google when I can, but use your favorite search engine to look up “dead rail society”. It’s a good starting point. And there have been improvements since I converted mine. I like that you didn’t listen to those that say HO isn’t suitable for outdoor layouts. You showed them didn’t you!
Very neat, these cars primarily run up and down Canal Street in New Orleans.
Watching in2x ❤
Fantastic train ride❤
Thank you
Great Video! 👍👍👍👍🍀🍀
Thanks
Wow, this layout is a fantastic work of art! Couldnt think of a more beautiful train to run on it either. Great work!
Thank you for the kind words. Yes, the Daylight is my priority train in my collection to run on this layout.
I would love to see RapidoTrainsInc make these ACE F40PH-3Cs
Me too
Good luck
Do those station signs actually work to announce the trains?
No, they are only designed to show destinations. Surprisingly, the process was extremely easy. Sound effects will require some other technology.
Love that you’re running just B cars for testing, lol. Looks really good! Are you planning to get the new models Rapido Trains is making for BART?
Yes, I do wish Rapido would speed up the process.
Great job you finished the train loop on the Bart subway line it looks great I look forward to seeing the trains running complete with the cab units on the front
Thanks. I have a few more to add. The A Units need new decoders installed but will be running soon. I am seriously anticipating the Rapido Version to run. I want to see the C-Cars in action.
@@blakrootz wow awesome that’s very exciting I look forward to seeing those and your illusional third rail Arcking at the station
Great Job with the subway station!
Nice!!!!
Bro! Can you still open and close that garage door? if yes, then my mind is blown! I love the SP Daylight. I have one somewhere in my garage. Did you have to order special HO Tracks for outdoors? Great Video!
Yes. My wife and I park both cars in the garage and use it quite frequently. No, I use Peco Code 100 Nickel Silver track. Here is a video when i had to repair the garage door portion of the layout. ruclips.net/video/1m9PccNfg84/видео.htmlsi=tBhFvrrykh2hVprZ
Great video! I am a new follower for your channel. I have been building an HO Subway in my head for about 15 years now. Watching your videos has given me the push I needed to go buy some material to get started. Thank you! What did you use for the platform? You mentioned the tile, but what is under? is it that foam or wood?
The entire station and platform is made of wood. On top of the platform is peel and stick adhesive floor tile. Home Depot has plenty of free samples for you to choose, which you may like. I had to choose between two and found one fairly similar to that of the flooring at Embarcadero BART Station. I eventually bought a pack and then cut it to size with a band saw. If you don't have that, you can use scissors, but it will be a bit difficult. Please keep me posted on your progress and be sure to see video one of this project of how I began. The link is in the description. Thanks for the support and subscribing. 👌🏾👍🏾😁
2 things great with outdoor railroading, long trains & big curves. Do your neighbors say something (complain) about the noise (sounds)? Some times mind do, but most the time their grandkids are enjoying the trains. I run On30 & F (1:20.3) scale, my HOs are run on a club layout. I have Challengers steam.
No, lol, my neighbors aren't bothered by the trains at all.
👍🏾👍🏾 Nice Cuz, Putting it Together lol
Thanks cuzn
The new ho scale bart trains are being released around the fall of this year. they are up for preorder. with or without dcc sound.
Yes, my pre-order is in. Thank you
@@blakrootz one fellow ho scale train collector to another, you're welcome 💪👍
Great Video, from the subway.👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you
Dude how’d you get those scrolling text banners hanging from the ceiling of your BART station?! Super cool
Major research on youtube. Found them in the UK, but they can be programmed to any modelers' preferences. I also dropped the link for purchase in the part two video.
