Manhattan Terminal Railroad Layout Tour
Fantastic layout.Great big-city atmosphere. The high-rise structures look really effective and don't seem to overpower the layout, which can so easily happen. Thanks so much for sharing
Man, your layout is just so beautiful. All those details and spot on weathering. So cool! What type of engine is that exactly? Nice sound!
Thanks for the feedback. The engine is an older Proto 2000 GP7.
Another wonderful ops session on that beautiful layout 👍
Those engines look and sound amazing! Also the whole scenery is really beautifully modeled!
Thanks, appreciate the comments.
Pure fun!
Wow!😮
I like the background tall brick buildings. Feels like the 50's ! Thanks for sharing with us.
Excellent switching session, enjoyed it very much and had to subscribe! Your layout is also full of beautiful details, very nice.
Thanks, appreciate the comments!
Busy day for the crew! Always fun watching operations on the layout!
Thanks Joe!
Very nice 👍
Great Camerawork 👍😀OperateOnOperator
Ay yo! Don't forget the gabbagool!
Great video of Op's. I like that it's at switching speed. After spending 37 years as a Road Conductor/yard forman on locals and industry jobs for the UP. Hired out with a crew 4, engr/cond/2 swtmn and retired with a just a engr and me as Forman. I like the detail of figures and soothing covered buildings. Keep up the ops videos.
a very fine layout
Great little op, always a relaxing time to watch a little switching action. Add an ALCO and it's bliss!
Oh, you have a Schlitz delivery truck, as well as reefers from Milwaukee. (Do you interchange with the guys modeling the Beer LIne? LOL!) That calls for some appropriate music. ruclips.net/video/JL0mH76XJ3A/видео.html
@@jeffbranch8072 Nope, don’t interchange with other modelers per se, but the Milwaukee cars and beer trucks were inspired by one of the Beer Line modelers.
I'd call that close enough!
Always a pleasure as following your switches chores, thank's lot.
Great to see another video! The new setup is neat! Is it a new addition or just a rearranging of some of your scenery? Either way it's a nice scene. Hope you can make some more videos of this new angle!
Hi Tom, this is a 12 foot extension to the layout and now serves as the end of the line.
I must 1st CONFESS.🙏..... I have been watching your contributions for, Ah! Hemm!, for some time. You've been a HUGE inspiration as you have brought back a Large part of, not only my childhood but my love for Urban model railroading....... Thank You.
@@calvincurtiss2490 Thank you for the comments, so glad you enjoy the urban switching.
Just keep it coming. I'm actually trying to do a piece of Maspeth, BKLYN, @@manhattanterminalrailroadh9776
Awesome, love the new extension and the food terminal! That's a lot of Pabst and Schlitz shipped out of the Beer Line in Milwaukee... - Paul
@@thecnwmondovilinepaulscota7304 Thanks Paul! Apparently New Yorkers drank a lot of beer back then!
@@manhattanterminalrailroadh9776 And probably still do. 😁
Love your videos. They are so much like industrial Toronto when I was growing up in the 40's and 50's. It brings back the sounds, smells and character of days gone by. Now it's all condos, cafe's and boring.
So glad you enjoy them!
Good Work.
You had me at the opening shot of the tugboats: often included on layouts, but rarely with any accuracy. This looks spot-on.
Amazing layout.So much attention to detail.
Ah, a perfect Operations Video for a lazy Sunday morning. Thanks! - Paul
Thanks Paul!
Listened to your interview on the Around the Layout podcast. Very interesting!
Thanks, appreciate the comment!
Great layout and well done scenes. The towering buildings/warehouses really set the stage for the area you are modeling. All the trash strewn along the tracks looks realistic. Enjoyed your recent interview with Ray Arnott on "Around the Layout" podcast. Mike
Thanks Mike, appreciate your comments!
This is incredible! Excellent modeling! Brings back memories of growing up in New York.
Thank you, appreciate the kind words.
Great operation and details, Thank you,,,
I was just looking at some of the New York Central System Historical Society articles in their Modeler magazine and thought about your videos. You should inquire about sending them pictures of your layout and NYC equipment. You may already be a member, but if not, think about joining and writing an article about the Highline. You can also tell them about your videos. They are much better than the ones they have.
Hi Tom! Thanks for the note. I am a member of the NYCSHS. As you know, I model it and also my father-in-law worked for the Central in the towers around Rochester, NY, from the 1940s to 1960. My layout was in the Central Modeler about five or six years ago, with an article and photos across two issues.. The layout has changed significantly since then, though.
Well done, how do you control the turnouts?
Turns outs are hand thrown, usually with a skewer. No electrical switches, switch machines, or anything on the fascia.
thanks im guessing Peco brand?@@manhattanterminalrailroadh9776
Another successful MTR video!
Absolutely fantastic. Having grown up in NYC and worked in Manhattan many years I can say you nailed it. Excellent modeling skills. Do you have a printed trackplan?
Thank you…appreciate the kind words. I don’t have a printed track plan at the moment.
A few simple switching moves.... shouldn't take too long....😊 Yea Right😅 Love it. Great way to kill some time. ❤
Another great video, but what is the classification of this loco?? You still have the best videos on RUclips!
Hi Tom, thanks for the feedback. Can you clarify your question about the loco….not sure exactly what you’re asking.
@@manhattanterminalrailroadh9776 Is it a GP, an SD or some other model?
It”s an Athearn Genesis GP-18 with a LokSound 5 decoder and Scale Sound System speakers. @@thomasryan9639
Always good to see another Ops video. Gotta keep those New Yorkers stocked with good Wisconsin beer!
Thanks Paul!
What decoder/speaker is in the 4704? Beautiful sound!
The decoder is a LokSound 5 with Scale Sound System speaker.
You never know what motive power to expect to see on the Manhattan Terminal!
My favorite train display 😊
Excellent layout and filming 👍 A+
Really excellent camera work on your videos. I appreciate all the different perspectives you offer and the layout looks great. Weathering on the loco and the cars, first rate -- in short, I'm a fan.
Thanks, appreciate the comments!
The smoothness of the slow speed running is impressive. Do you wire power feeds to each piece of track to ensure smooth electrical continuity across the rails? Did you re-gear the locomotives to get them to run that smooth at such a slow speed? The building flats along the water front look so good. The entire level of details look so good.
I can’t say every piece of track has feeders wires, but most. And as I have reworked sections of the layout, including a new 12 foot extension, I do add feeders to every piece of track. I have not re-geared any locomotives, but I have learned from experience which brands lend themselves to slow speed operations and which do not. In addition to buying only units that operate well at slow speed, I play around a lot with CV settings, including momentum for acceleration and braking, to get the smoothness I’m looking for. The brand of decoder makes a difference, too.
Your level of detailing is truly impressive. Such a great job.
Thanks, appreciate the feedback!
Always fun to watch the MTR!
Thanks Joe!
Exceptional layout, really like a work of art as much a model train layout -- great detail, looks so real and so authentic. I'm a new fan, to be sure.
Thank you…appreciate the kind words.
Is this a low-nose SD7 or 9? If so, I never knew these existed.
It’s an SD24
While the SP never owned SD24s, EMD painted some up in SP colors and were numbered in the 7200 series but they lacked SP lettering. SP didn’t bite and they were sold to UP who repainted them into UP colors.
@@manhattanterminalrailroadh9776 thanks for the clarification.
Very nice! Is that a new locomotive? I don't recall seeing that one before. Did the time period shift?
Thanks! The SD24 is one of my newer units and I don’t believe it has been used in a video. The time period has gradually crept forward in time from late 1950s to 1965. It will creep further to 1966 when I add a GP40 to the roster, but I don’t expect it to be any more recent than that.
Another fantastic Ops video, always worth the wait. Looking forward to seeing the new extension!
Thanks Paul!
Nice ops running great scenery work 🚂😎🫵
Been waiting for this video for a long time, but it was worth it. Great work!
Thanks Tom, always appreciate your comments. I’ve been sidetracked on a 12 foot extension of the railroad.
