OK ! Here I is again ! (The pest who wants you to change your site title)...Funny ! I just today bought and put some ointment on a canker sore on my lower lip; numbed my entire lip like when a dentist injects your gum with Novocaine !! Hated it and it didn't work.. 5:28 It appears to be a Shinohara/Walthers 3-way switch.. If so, I wish you the greatest luck preventing shorts/stall-outs over it. I had one on my last layout and it was a horror that way. Metal loco wheels tended to bridge across a (+ -) somewhere ..But, if you have 'keep alive' on your locos I suppose you'll be OK as you can make an insulation with enamel paint to at least prevent the shorting.. Phew ! I was worried your wife might be waiting for you in the kitchen with your saw, instead of the pizza !! ("Damned trains !! I'll show him who runs things 'round here !") But, OK, you came back...😄 Are you not planning any grades whatsoever ? I do like how all the trackage is the way most of us see it, that maybe only folks in the mountainous regions likely ever see grades..I dunno...just curious what your concept is... I actually like that it's all (seemingly) level..gives it a really vast look; aside from the great size the layout is anyway... Thumbs-up #92..

I very much love what you've got going here, but i want to repeat something I think I suggested some time back: I think you aught to consider changing your website name to something more instantly recognizable and remembered.."HO scale model trains" is what most everyone in HO has/does..It's a generic term within the hobby.. If I hadn't had this video in my RUclips 'history' I'd have given up looking for you today. If your site was, say, "My Giant HO Layout" or "The Sky's the Limit MRR" it would be remembered easily and thus located easily.. I'm not even sure if this is your latest video due to your moniker (if you will) as I really am looking forward to your progress on what may turn out to be the largest private MRR ever, and most realistic due to how you're...Oh! OK ! I just saw a thumbnail pic above that you've got a Dec.30 Vid...I will jump to that now, as I've seen this one a couple times already.. But I still think you should consider what I 've suggested..

Great video, lotsa h elp. Now, how about a video on an Atlas/Roco unit? Theres still a lot of them out there.

He Rob Question? Do you have to isolate the Atlas Motor from the Frame of the engine Like you have to do with old Athearn Bluebox engines? Also I would clean the solder joints with Alcohol and a acid brush cut down to about 1/8th inch. Just so the that the residue is cleaned off of the Board. Thanks Kevin

Great video I'm rather new to the hobby been working on a layout for a little over a year now. I learn a lot from videos just like this. Can't wait for you to get back to the scratch build / kitbash.

I've installed a number of decoders over the years, some are pretty easy some are difficult. I never thought of doing a video on it, probably if I did I would screw it up 😅. Anyway, you had a lot of good tips for those who have never done one of these. 👍

Very informative as usual. I do appreciate you taking the time showing the how to. Pointing out key points is what’s really needed in most cases. Thank you

email didn't work

Great video bro! 🚂

The best thing to do is a tour and explain what you're doing as you go through the layout!

Thanks Rob great vid =]

u must not live to far away from me i live near Spencer shops would like to see your layout at your open house

I am just jealous. My basement is full of kids toys. It is your train and your model. Have fun with it!

Get Naked…Get on the Scale…😂😂😂…you got a lot of work ahead of you to meet May 17-18…where do I find more info about that show? ….and would love to come down that weekend…thanks for putting a video together for me…

Do you have a track plan or are you just going off of inspiration? Seems like some haphazard approaches?

🫡 god Bless ya Sir.

Looks Like you Have Plenty to Do Work With What You Can Little By Little This Is A Pride And Passion Thing it Will Look Great Work It Slowly.

Nice looking layout. Are the coal tipples from kits or scratch-built? I’m looking for tipples.

Good morning Rob! It took me a little longer to get through your video this morning because of the increased length, but it was still very enjoyable! You accomplish more in a week than I get done in a month or two, or three, or four 😅 I love all of your plans and look forward to them coming together. 💯👍

The caboose on the mine run house track can be held in pace by some well placed tall static grass between ties to hold the axles until ready for pickup.

Did you swap trucks on the undec ALCO diesel t have 6-wheel trucks?

To make the tunnel portal halves work, drill a hole in the top ends of the arch that meet, use a wood dowel and epoxy to bond the two halves. Shold work out nicely. putty and sand the seam.

Ive got some pliobond, that should bond it permanently.

Yep, I knew it was gonna be an awesome video. I think when you have your open house many people are going to enjoy the hell out of it. Great job and planning!.

Nice layout so far, that solo tower shown in the beginning is known as a "Crossing Tower" used by a signalman Not to switch tracks or signals but to help Road Traffic across tracks usually at a bottle neck of a yard either by having 2 different yards with a single roadway in the middle of them or a Roadway in the middle of a Big yard as the Signalman would watch train Traffic and Mainline coming through easier because of being higher up and being able to see over parked Railcars in the distance, when getting close to road traffic crossing the Signalman would step out of Tower either hand lower the gates or Flag the crossing so Automobile traffic would stop. Nice someone that actually checks those Trim-Tracks "counting cars" Is a real thing when working yards, No more than a Mile on the mainline, FRA rules say you have to continue on if passed, unsafe.

Hi Rob & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Rob & Friends Randy

Try inserting and glueing tooth picks to hold the tunnel portals together. Keep up the good work!

This is going to be an awesome video.

He did an amazing job! Wow fantastic work

Its a Major Award! I heard that a Guy from Terra Haute won a Bowling Alley! Rob that is a Awesome Building that he built for you!

I live here

Awesome building...I'd find a place to mod my track plan so that both sides could be seen..at least on a 45deg angle...your talking about whats going on is better than music ...everyone needs a friend like Scott...looking forward to Sunday...

As a scratch builder I can attest to the amazing job that your friend Scott did. I agree with you in that this is one special gift. I've built and detailed a lot of kit buildings for friends, but my scratch builds remain on my layout. Another great video Rob! 💯👍

Very nice! Looks fantastic! Thanks for sharing.

Put it on the corner near the roundhouse in the location all those biscuit cans are standing. You would get both sides up close and personal.

Scott did an absolutely incredible job!

Such a great build

That is an outstandingly built structure!

Hi Rob & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Rob & Friends Randy

Looking great, can't wait to see the progress

Should have used a heat gun to begin with. The bubbles were down there, and were going to come up eventually.

Have you?thought about the Atlas C-420? I would put those Lima C-420;s in the display case.
