Op's Session on Larry Thompson's HO Western Maryland Railroad 12-11-24
Today we had the opportunity to operate on Larry's layout. Steve Johnson, John Ritter, Dennis Yeager and myself. I was videoing and operating at the same time, so my switching suffered a bit. At the beginning of the video, I included a quick tour of the 33'x33' layout. I am headed out to Steve's layout tomorrow for an op session which will be very fun and interesting. I have attended one previous op session there and it can be quite challenging.

Operating session on Joe Discher's HO Scale Layout
Просмотров 82419 часов назад
As you will see and hear it is organized chaos and so much fun! As always our layouts don't always cooperate. The bane of model railroaders especially when you have visitors! After lunch we discussed the expansion of the layout and how best to make the connection. Joe needed to add a track connection which we planned out. John is going over one day soon to install the connection. We are at Larr...

Yesterday I had an operation session with my round robin group and two visitors Steve Johnson and Rick Barton. Steve has a You Tube Channel (www.youtube.com/@UC_T3STz1zCX2hBCnF8ucodg ) and Rick Barton. Steve models the Union Railroad in amazing detail and it is challenging to operate. Rick just started a company Tennessee Valley Custom Models (tennesseevalleycustoms.com/) Rick makes various roa...

Last month my round robin group attended an operating session on Brian's 'O' Scale layout. As always operation sessions are organized chaos. We all had a great time and despite good judgement Brian has invited us back. A glutton for punishment. Brian sorry I was so late posting this.

Tennessee Valley Custom Models and Scale Signs. White Rose Hobbies currently has some Scale Signs in stock. Sorry for some of the video being blurry. For some odd reason the Iphone 15 would not focus properly. I never seem to have had issue...

On September 6th I had an open house for the Mid-Atlantic Region Prototype Modeler's Convention. I had the pleasure of meeting 25 participants. I had a great time but with all of the visitors I could not spend enough time with each or to explain the premise of the railroad. Thanks to all that attended and a special thanks to my operating crew (Dennis, John, Larry and Mo). This video shows the p...
Railfanning Chicago 7/22-25/24

My good friend Jim Kleeman and I visited Chicago last Monday-Thursday. We videoed and took what seemed like a zillion photos. I alone shot 114 videos! I decided to include all of the videos I took so the post is well over an hour. As you will see in the post we saw freight and passenger trains. At Elmhurst it was almost like streetcars with one train after another. We did have a strange encount...

Просмотров 1,1 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Just a short update on my layout. Most of the improvements consist of adding Woodland Scenics Hedgerows. I also changed the industry adjacent to the helix to a beer distributor and now have one track enter the building. As I mention I an not sure what type on industry to have the adjacent industry track serve. The is not much room there for a building. Take care everyone!

My round robin group had the privilege to attend an operating session on Larry's layout this past Tuesday. We had a great time! The layout is very impressive and his track work is perfect. We had so much fun that Larry has become a member of our group. Sorry about that Larry! To the viewers I am also sorry you were exposed to Joe's face close up.
Model Railroading How to: Painting Rail and Ballasting Lincoln Yard
Просмотров 7558 месяцев назад
You are probably tired of seeing me and Brian so I thought I would post this video. About a month ago I started painting the rail, weathering ties and ballasting Lincoln Yard. I show the procedures and materials I used. Turned out pretty good in my opinion. I still want to weather the locomotive servicing track buy adding oil streaks between the rails and adding static grass to the industrial s...

In Part 2 we discuss the industry move to plastics and 3D printing. As per usual I did not get to say much (lol) but have added my 2 cents in after Brian's discussion. It is really an example of what plastics have done for the hobby. Hope you enjoy.
Model Railroading Past and Future Part 1 - Introduction
Просмотров 3128 месяцев назад
I know you all are tired of seeing me and Brian's ugly mugs but.... We decided to sit down together and discuss how the model railroad world has changed in our lifetime. It is very informative and entertaining in my opinion. It will be a 5 part series with relatively short videos. The main goal of the series is to let new model railroaders understand just how far the hobby has progressed in the...

Mega great concept ! There are still a few more hours of work to be done to complete it, I fear. Wishing them success and a lot of courage.
Fun video to watch. Love all of the old 'F' units. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching John!
0:07 0:07 If not for your support, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I really appreciate having you as a supportive fan of mine.❤️❤️
Awesome hobby store you got.
Thanks Brian!
@fredeisen7401 your welcome
Is this the same White Rose Hobbies I delt with in the 80's & 90's that made NASCAR die cast via Matchbox??? Still have about everything they did. Thanks
I don't think so. Ryan Thoman is the owner and started the business 15 years ago. Was the store you delt with in York PA?
Great store! I love visiting and I’ve been a happy customer a few years now.
Thank You!! We appreciate talking with you and your purchases.
Just received an order…didn’t know you are an actual brick-and-mortar shop. Love it! I’ll save your link for future goodies!
Glad you found us on the web!
outstanding tour!
Thank You!!
Looks like a great hobby shop. Little bit of a drive for me from Northern Indiana. But will stop by if I ever get out that way. Thanks for sharing.
@@johnbanicki7232 check out our website www.whiterosehobbies.com And thank you for watching!
I thought the used lionel and mth was only in the back room ahead on the right only
Oh wow how cool
@@doctordeath.5716 Thanks man!!!
@fredeisen7401 You are welcome
Nice layout! Love that you guys always seem to have a good time. No matter what happens. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Looks like you guys really have a good time. Thant is the way it should be. Feel sorry for the guy who was always hunched over because he is so tall. Thanks for sharing.
Nice looking layout! Great video and thanks for sharing! New Subscriber
Hey Fred!
Hey Ely!!
G'day Fred, Looks like you guys had fun. Thats what it should all be about. Hats off to you all for contending with the low ceiling and at the 3.04 minute point I thought that there was a table extending into the aisle.😀 Cheers Ken😃
Three of the guys are tall, the rest of us do not have an issue with the cross beams. LOL! Thanks for watching Mate!
@@fredeisen7401 No worries. Keep up the good work. Cheers Ken
How big is the layout? What kind of command system do you use?
I am not sure of the size of the layout but would guess 15' x 24'. He is planning an expansion of roughly the same size. Joe uses North Coast Engineering's command station as do all of the guys in the group with the exception of one who uses Digitrax.
@fredeisen7401 Nice.
Hi
Looks like fun.
I was! Thanks for watching!
Yes, one and the same.
Hey Fred. Is Mr Joe the guy from. T & w train club.
It always amuses me seeing people I know on my TV. Lol
And a handsome one also!
Another great video! 💪
Thanks Ted! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.
Hey Morris!
Thanks for sharing. Great group of men! Lots of work.
Yes it is a great group of guys! Thanks for watching! Happy Thanksgiving!
Wow, very nice and impressive layout. Looks like you guys had great fun!
We always have fun together. We BS as much as run trains or construct each others layout. Happy Thanksgiving!
Thank you for sharing this op session, I enjoyed it! Mike
Your welcome Mike. Thanks for watching.
Gosh that looks like fun, and on a great layout too!
I never really understood why people would operate their layout until I attended an op session. I was hooked then and designed my layout to accommodate operations. I have 40 industries on the layout to serve. Thanks for watching!
@fredeisen7401 I'm with you. Watching trains run is fun for about 5 minutes. Operating them in a realistic manner and for a prototypical purpose is fun all day. I don't have a crew yet, but my layout was designed to be operated, not just to watch trains run.
Thanks for posting. Great to see model railroading in reality. I guess that these are two man crews using switch lists.
Actually they were one man crews. Brian had two of his experienced operators mentor us.. Everybody did a great job.
enjoyed the update.
Thanks!
A great time!
I agree! Thanks for participating!
Looks like there’s quite a few new members
Larry was added about a year ago and we added Rick yesterday. I invited Steve to attend anytime he wants, but his layout while amazing can only accommodate a few people at a time so a large group would not work otherwise I would ask him to be part of the group.
I would like to see more videos like this and longer ones too.
I am posting on tomorrow about the same length. I will try to shoot longer ops videos in the future. Thanks for watching!
They need to identify the locomotive types and cars.
If not for your support, I wouldn’t be where I am today. I really appreciate having you as a supportive fan of mine.❤️❤️
No mentioning of any type of railroad paints
We carry Tru-color paint.
Nice signs…will be looking into them…
nice
Thanks!
0:27 Beautiful brick structure. Beautiful layout. Subscribed.
Thanks for subscribing and your nice compliment!
Great modeling 👍 nice presentation
Thanks!
Great video Fred, Was nice chatting with you at the show Saturday. 🚂
Thanks Ted! I enjoyed seeing you.
I seen the Tennessee Valley signs at Timonium. Will definitely be on the shopping list as layout progress is made
Cool!
Looking great, Fred! Those signs look really good.
Th signs are really nice. Tennessee Valley Custom Models are made in Pikesville.
@@fredeisen7401 Thanks! Pulled up his website. I’m going to order a few.
I am a Marylander who grew up with the WM, some of your scenes like Glyndon and the high bridge north of Thurmont are very accurate
Looks great Fred and thanks for the update!
Hi. Very nice layout, beautiful scery work, lots of operational possibilities, but still not looking too crowded. Interesting scery deviders by Woodland. Have hit the Subscribe button in order to follow along :-)
Nice layout! Your camera work is a lot be/er than most. It doesn't make the viewer feel dizzy 😵,.Some nice buildings and great scenery. Both levels are well-lit. Good luck! Can't wait to see the next video.
Thanks Thomas Ryan!! I is great to hear that my videos are easy to watch. I know what you mean about others videos and camera movement.
Love the hedge rows Fred. Layout looks spectacular
Thanks!
Great-looking backdrop on that upper level!
I agree! Pete Chapin painted for me. He is a good friend and my golf pro also.
Lots of nice structures on your layout…like the WS hedge groves…need to look into those…
I had thought about the hedgerows for quite some time before I decided to use them. I am very pleased with the use of the hedgerows to create scene breaks and add depth to the layout scenes. Thanks for the compliment.
