I am a carpenter and experienced railway modeller and must say that your video should be released as a training video. The multiple skills that you demonstrate are beyond text book standard. Also, your work area was always clean and tidy. Congratulations and well done on a superb piece of work.
Thank you very much! :]

So how do you keep those wretched freight cars from jumping the track? My tanker cars are good at it, especially at switches.
Excellent work, from design through execution!
Es ist nicht so gut drauf zu sein und ich bin auch dabei und viele liebe Grüße an alle die von der Arbeit und die anderen beiden auch noch positiv getestet worden und ich bin auch dabei und
I'm 78 years young so have seen a lot but this is one of the most incredible things I've ever seen in the 'hobby' world. Fantastic.
i'm so glad someone of your generation is browsing RUclips and drawing inspiration from the many talented model makers here.
As I hope to still be doing when I get to your age.
Respect to you Mike 🤩
Yes, it's incredible, neuer seen something similar, too.
AMAZING
Just 3 words. Amazing, Fantastic, Incredible.
Thank you! :]
The wall art really brought it together
Thank you! :]
What should I even say? The amount of skill, knowledge, time, dedication, motivation, etc... it's enviable. The amount of craftsmanship that would have went into this is truly out standing, let alone the cost! Truly a project worthy of respect; especially for no goal other than passion. I and many, many others wish we had the capability to dedicate so much time to fulfilling, hard-working projects as you are.
Congratulations, and keep doing what you love!
Thank you very much :]
Félicitations. Les modélistes ferroviaire sont vraiment les plus grands, ingénieux et Foux à la fois, car ils ne sont jamais satisfaits, ils n'ont jamais terminé, car une fois les rails et l'électricité, l'éclairage, Bein il y a tout les décors et décorums des différents lieux représenté. Encore une fois, félicitations, bon courage et bonne constructions, je suis sûre que ça n'est pas terminé. Portez vous bien et continuez à vous amuser. Merci.
Trust only movement. Life happens at the level of events, not of words. Trust movement.
i have SO much respect for what you have build I am looking forward to some video when trains are riding around your stunning layout
Amazing vision. Forty years ago my uncle built a three level layout. Keep in mind it was analog yet he was able to run four trains simultaneously. Sadly he was never able to landscape it before life caught up to him. I was able to purchase 80% of his engines and rolling stock. I do not have photos of the layout but watching your endeavor unfold it brings back memories. Looking forward to how you landscape!
A build of this capacity and magnitude is resume worthy regardless of occupation. Just walk up and hand over the flashdrive, 20 minutes later, when can you start?? 😜. Incredible vision conceptually and the dedication and discipline to complete a massive scale multi year project. Congratulations 🍻
Many thanks for these great words of praise! I really appreciate it! Greetings David!
Thank you for expressing this before me. Whatever the occupation of the person building this, he must be very, very good at it. Deutsche Gründlichkeit, eh ?
I’ll second your reply if l may and the word magnitude and track cleaning are the only things I’d add 😳 But bravo, what a monster you hath created! 🤣 Can’t wait for Part 3 👍
AMAZING DUE REAL FABULOUSE!
WELL DONE! 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you! :]
So Clean of a job!! Not many understand the amount of work involved with building this beautifully done job!
Big Thanks! :]
im a thirteen year old boy and this is my forever dream. i love seeing how effort you’ve put in this. this inspires me a lot. you did so well! keep up the good work!!!
Sixty years ago when I was 6 years old my dad gave me the best birthday present ever. It was a simple green plywood table with train and oval track. It looked like a real train and track surrounded with grass to me. Thanks for helping me remember a happy childhood memory.
That's how it started for me too! And then I was infected by the model railroad!
Sounds like a happy childhood :] Greetings!
Still have the Lionel model 1611 Diesel Switcher set with a bit of extra track and a well-worn but intact original outer box from the early 1960's for Christmas to my brother and i
Train set, still pristine condition...outer box, not so much
I'm also 78 years young and helped build section C220 of the Taiwan High Speed Railway back in 2000 - 2004. I was the Senior Inspector of Works for the 16 klm of Right of Way, 11 tunnels were constructed, plus an elevated section across the flood plain of Hsin Chu. The viaducts were installed as concrete sections by way of DSM & ASM methods to form the twin track running lines and 4 track station of Hsin Chu. The tunnels in the foothill section had earthworks, bridges between each one, this all in a earthquake zone, I have experienced a few and their very wobbly. especially as I lived on the 14th floor.
Great model, but I bet the wife has a hell of a job getting to put up a clothes hook. Loved the detail you put in with grass etc. Well done and thanks for posting.
Thanks for youre Story, Sounds intresting! I hope you will enjoy it further :]
The planning, the step-by-step construction and the 2 year result - Amazing!!! I have not had a railroad for 50 years and I am still blown away by your skills. This is so much better to watch during my morning coffee than watching the news. Thank you x10 !!!!!!!!
Thank you, really nice to hear that :]
hahaha, couldn't agree more! Just had my lunch during this mesmerizing video and the music is well chosen too! Very very nice and dedicated!
This is an artwork. But so much work... Unbelievable!
Thanks! :]
Been following this build since you started posting videos about it. Looks absolutly incredible. Can't wait for the landscape construction videos. Keep up the hard work!!
Thank you for your loyalty! Greetings from Germany!
I'm just speechless, this required plenty of hard work, dedication, discipline and Time, this is just two years in terms of your various skills! guess it for others
This worth millions of view and still not enough!
Just wanna say congratulations from a diorama maker who really understands the level of this work ❤
Thank you! :]
Danke dir David, du hast was tolles hier gebaut. 👍💪✌
Vielen Dank :]
Wow. The volume of top tier talents, skills, training, and expertise that are absolutely required before one could even dream up such a project is definitely worthy of consideration as pointed out by a post below talking about the resume and job interview demonstration.
Lots of visibly demonstrated and externalizable "strengths" here like, start to finish vision, planning and conceptualizing, building a plan to methodically build such a project, recognition and management of a web of complex and interactively required elements and systems for which each of them required their own plans, the patience and attention to detail in the execution of the plan, quality controls to prevent errors from being realized too far into the construction to fix or correct, the ability and skills to do the video capture and media content creation
There was a time in the US maybe 20ish years ago where the big deal in education was project oriented demonstrations for student's "portfolios. I'd say that this project in its totality is a near perfect portrayal of the goal of that movement. It even includes the hobbies. What do you do for fun? Model Trains..
This is pretty much astounding.
I’m 63 years old my layout took 3 years and still building and improving.. your layout is incredible.
Thank you! :]
Mad respect for your impeccably clean work
Thank you :]
I try my best. Kind regards Elizabeth
Watching this video brought back fond memories of my dad. He was into HO trains until the day he died. Thank you for sharing your journey.
The memories will last forever!
I could have written the same comment
This is beyond amazing; I do terrain scenery for miniature wargaming so i consider myself part of the « hobby », but this holistic display of skills, planning, and detail.. I did badly not want the video to end... thank you and please keep sharing!
Thank you! :]
Hell yeah man! This is a great example of why I love this hobby. Not only is it a ton of fun but it can also be a work of art!
Thanks :]
@Freestylemoba No problem. What mobas do you play? Ever heard of Predecessor?
We know things are bad - worse than bad. They’re crazy. It’s like everything everywhere is going crazy, so we don’t go out anymore. We sit in the house, and slowly the world we are living in is getting smaller, and all we say is: ‘Please, at least leave us alone in our living rooms. Let me have my toaster and my TV and my steel-belted radials and I won’t say anything. Just leave us alone.
That’s part of the problem isn’t it? Get out of your house. Make yourself a better person. Have a positive effect on the world. And for Gods sake throw the f’in tv out. Seriously. I can’t possibly tell you how terrible it is in a RUclips comment. I don’t have the space lol.

I think you are missing the point by overlaying your maligned thinking with this man’s enjoyment and fulfillment with his hobby.
@@DefaultModeNetwork”Well, I’m not gonna leave you alone. I want you to get MAD! I don’t want you to protest. I don’t want you to riot - I don’t want you to write to your congressman, because I wouldn’t know what to tell you to write. I don’t know what to do about the depression and the inflation and the Russians and the crime in the street. All I know is that first you’ve got to get mad. (shouting) You’ve got to say: ‘I’m a human being, god-dammit! My life has value!’
So, I want you to get up now. I want all of you to get up out of your chairs. I want you to get up right now and go to the window. Open it, and stick your head out, and yell: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’
I want you to get up right now. Sit up. Go to your windows. Open them and stick your head out and yell - ‘I’m as mad as hell and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’ Things have got to change. But first, you’ve gotta get mad!…You’ve got to say, ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’ Then we’ll figure out what to do about the depression and the inflation and the oil crisis. But first, get up out of your chairs, open the window, stick your head out, and yell, and say it: ‘I’m as mad as hell, and I’m not gonna take this anymore!’”
I've seen so many videos on railway models and this one really took my breath away. As mentioned it is a work of art: The carpintery skill, the electrics, atention to detail.. It is a true inspiration. Keep up the great work.
Many thanks for these words of praise! I feel honored!
Unbelievable Work! Can't wait to see what it looks like when it is complete 100%
Me too :] Thank you!
Das ist ja eine Wahnsinnsarbeit. Kein Wunder, dass die meisten Anlagen nicht fertig werden. 👍
Eine Anlage wird NIE Fertig ;]
@@Freestylemoba Soll sie auch nicht, den es ist eine sinnvolle Beschäftigungtherapie.
What we think determines what happens to us, so if we want to change our lives, we need to stretch our minds.
Excellent. Your electrical work is fantastic and very structured.
Thank you! :]
I am blown away. Excellent work!
Thanks! :]
Wow just wow, but damn, now you have weathened my apitite for more. Can't wait to see the landscaping, trees, creeks and houses. People, roads and cars.
Coming sooon :]
I don't know nothing about this hobby but this is incredible. Respect.
Thank you! :]
You did an amazing job and this video is so fun to watch every step off your building process! 😃👌🏻👏🏻
Nice to hear :] thank you!
The efficiency with which he paired the socks in the drawer was quite admirable.
I’ve been building HO model train layouts for 58 years you gave me a few new ideas on framing using all threads and the amount that you compacted into a small area. I am extremely impressed.
I am glad that I could show you new possibilities for your model railroad layout :]
This was impressive to say the least. What is your background as this reminds me of project work in industry I work (material handling systems). The planning and execution, and the wiring is unbelievably clean. Well done..and as said..the threaded rod was something I've not seen but filed away for when I start on mine. So many ideas gleaned. Extremely impressed.
Vorstellungskraft, Liebe zum Detail, Umgang mit der Wasserwaage, Mathematik, Sauberkeit und Disziplin sind auf höchstem Niveau ! Ich habe noch kein sexier gewordenes Video gesehen und dachte auch nicht, dass es eines gibt ! Glückwunsch ! Sie haben aus diesem Hobby eine Kunst gemacht ! ❤
Vielen Dank! :]
Respekt ! Tolle Anlage und vor allem professionelles Arbeiten in Perfektion...GRATULIERE 🙂
Danke für das Lob! :]
Remarkable, absolutely remarkable. Can’t wait to see this masterpiece progress, take a bow young man.😀👍🏻
Thanks! :]
Stunning. Congratulations. The dedication is above and beyond. Thank you for this video.
Thank you! :]
Not every difficult and dangerous thing is suitable for training, but only that which is conducive to success in achieving the object of our effort.
Wow, such an incredible amount of work went into this. Congratulations my dude, this is awesome! 😎
Thank you :]
That is such a gorgeous project, so far. I can't wait to see it all completed!
Thanks! :]
The sheer mountain of intricacy and quality is amazing. The design is incredible. Really well done, my friend.
Big Thanks :]
A absolute work of art, amazing
Thanks :]
@@Freestylemoba I am in the UK can you please pop over and build one for me???
wow is all i can say so much work over 2 years & so much more cant wait to see the finished item , things like this are never finished you will fill the room in then have pop up holes to work in
Hallo David. Klasse. Auf die nächsten 12 Monate mit interessanten Videos von dir und deiner Anlage! Grüße Michael
Gude Michael!
Freut mich das es dir gefällt und du weiter dran bleibst :] Es ist schon einiges in Planung ;]
Gruß David!
I've seen many layouts over the years either in person or video. I've even traveled to The Museum of science and Industry in Chicago to view their impressive layout. I'm in Canada so large layouts tend to have long mainlines which look great for long freight consists but then the scenery is mostly vegetation and the square footage is big. I've been thinking for years about my eventual dream build. Your layout is the closest I have seen to what I have imagined. As a trades worker I can see your dedication to top quality workmanship. Definitely one of my favorite layouts. Two thumbs up.
Wow! Thank you so much for this praise! I am very honored!
Greetings from Germany!
Very nice build layout. I was impressed and blown away seeing this video. Nice construction work. You put a lot of hard work in it and even the video is well done and takes time too. The music on it was also great. I had a headset on when I looked at it. It sounds like sitting in the movies 🙂👌Just continue the great work. Looking forward to it.
Thank you very much :]
Strong beliefs win strong men, and then make them stronger.
Your wiring is as impressive as the layout itself. What wonderful, organized work.
Thank you! :]
You were working so fast rolling around in your chair, I thought I saw a seat belt!
No way ... ;]
Thanks a lot. Great work and video about the work done. Hello from Moscow. Russia.
Beautiful. truly a labor of love
Thanks :]
truly a kind of a masterpiece here - blown away by this dedication!
Thanks man! :]
This was an amazing time-lapse video to watch. so satisfying!
Absolute super build
Thanks! :]
Da hast Du aber eine sehr schöne Anlage angefangen zu bauen . Hut ab. es macht viel Spass zu sehen wie Du die einzelnen Abschnitte gebaut hast und auf relativ wenig Platz so viel unter bringst . mach weiter so. Gruß aus Berlin
Gude Hans!
Freut mich das es dir so gefallen hat! Ich habe wirklich versucht alles rauszuholen aus dem verfügbaren Platz!
Gruß David aus dem verschneitem Westerwald!
I love this! Unbelievably overengineered. Can't wait for the landscaping!
Big Thanks :]
Beautiful work. I have built a large HO scale model railroad covering about 1200 ft.² and really appreciate the hard work you have done going through the two-year process. Great job.
Thank you! :] I hope you enjoy building your layout as much as I do! Regards!
Not sure which part of your build impressed me the most! Truly wonderful job from the layout design, the build quality, and your power wiring and setup are first class. Loved seeing the time-lapse of this... thank you for sharing!!
Thank you! :]
Jeezus! If I change a light bulb in the kitchen I'm a friggin' hero.
You sir, are an artiste!
haha :] Thanks!
This is the first time that I have seen this incredible HO layout. I can't wait for the landscape to begin. Lots of work to complete this incredible layout. Mike HO from Australia
Thanks! New things coming sooon, stay tuned ;]
Greetings to Australia!
So great to see someone following their passion. Great job, it looks great.
Thanks! :]
Very nice. Very enjoyable video.
Thanks :]
I'm speechless..... WOW!!!
When we came in our new house, 28 years ago, a small place at the attick was reserved for my trains. But I couldn’t finish this plan. 5 Years ag I stopped working and had a new bigger plan because I had more time. But it was not possible to finish that too. My age is 63 and I am jealous at your trains! My plan was smaller but with two leavels. I am amazing how you have finished this construction. I had Fleischmann H0. I was 6/7years old when my dad started with making trains in the weekend.
Nice to hear your stories. Sometimes you shouldn't set your sights too high. I hope you enjoy your layout construction.
Beste greetings!
Thanks!
Man I give you so much respect for you patience, creativity, and determination! This was amazing and beautiful
Thank you! :]
Hut ab, besser kann man es nicht machen! Finde es klasse wie akurat und ordentlich Du alles bearbeitest. Genial finde ich auch den Hintergrund mit runder Ecke, sieht sehr gelungen aus. Wenn der Rest der Anlage genauso nice wird wie bisher, kann man sich auf die nächsten Jahre nur freuen! Für mich zur Zeit die beste Anlage im Bau auf YT. ✌
Vielen Dank für das Mega Lob! Ich gebe mir weiter mühe ;]
Gruß David!
... dann hast du aber noch nicht viele Videos zu diesem Thema gesehen. Vom Detail her ist die Anlage schon Mega aber sie ist auch sehr klein. Es gibt Videos von ganzen Kellerausbauten bis hin zur 300+ qm Hallen die voll bebaut sind 😉😉😉
@@levelonegamingacademy9524 Größe allein bedeutet nicht unbedingt große Qualität. Und ich finde eine Heim-Anlage sollte man nicht mit einer Hallen-Anlage vergleichen. Eine Heim-Anlage mit über 6qm würde ich auch nicht als sehr klein bezeichnen. Und ich habe schon viele Bau-Videos gesehen und kann trotzdem sicher sagen, dass eben nur wenige so akurat arbeiten wie man das hier sieht.
I love automatic model railways. It's your own miniatur wunderland.
Yeah :]
That's absolutely mega. Awesome build. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely amazing skills and tenacity to push this through...❤
Thank you! :]
Tolle Zusammenfassung, immer wieder interessant das so zu sehen. Klasse Arbeit, beste Grüße Harry
Danke dir Harry :] Liebe Grüße David!
I can appreciate the meticulous workmanship, but it looks to me like you are concealing at least half of the coolest part, which to me is the switch yards.
Its just like i wanted it. Not too many tracks and many hidden parking slots for trains in the underground. :]
Fantastic planning and construction. Will be great fun to operate.
Thank you :]
Great job but I am now very discouraged! As somone who grew up in Germany and who loves German trains, I've always wanted a German cantinary HO layout roughly twice as large as yours with long straight runs and large radius turns. A couple Bahnhöfe and a Locschuppen. I was hoping that in two years of 10 hours a week in possibly three I could build such a layout start to finish with all the scenery. I can tell a project such as mine will take at least 10 years. 🥺
You must not overdo it and only take on individual sections at a time. Then a layout will develop almost by itself ;] You have to enjoy youre build and not to rush it! Greetings!
Don't be discouraged. You can get a lot done in 2 yes with 10 hrs a week. Aim for a lesser level of detail and completion for phase 1 and then make improvements and fill in details. Some people are never "finished".
Maybe try building a smaller layout first with the intentions of being able to incorporate it into your planned larger layout. If it's your first layout the experience and skill you'll acquire will help in completing a larger build. I'm currently on my 3rd Ho scale permanent layout and spent a few years on a "temporary" N scale floor layout using Kato Unitrack. My dream build is still years away. I'm sure some of the skills you acquired from RC model building will help. Best of luck.
I’m an Army Brat who lived in Bavaria four years from like 4-8, I always tell my family I miss the train travel the most.
Ich kann mir deine Videos immer und immer wieder anschauen und beneide dich un dein handwerkliches Talent, was mir leider gar nicht gegeben ist. Und inzwischen über 60 Jahre alt ist für mich der Traum von der eigenen MoBa wohl ausgeträumt😢. Deshalb schaue ich so gerne deine Videos. Freue mich schon auf das Kommende hier auf deinem Kanal. Frohe Weihnachten 🎄 🎄 🎄 und alles Gute im neuen Jahr.
Incredible video, loved watching this. Thank you for producing this video! Truly amazing work.
Big Thanks! :]
Wooooooooow...........absolut professionell 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks :]
Astonishing, I make many things, love this
Thank you! :]
Great job😎
16 Years ago My son's and I built a 3 level layout, ran 5 trains, had mountains, river, lake, tunnels, even had a military base, tons of buildings, roads, cars, trucks, people Etc...Was very therapeutic, I miss it a lot. We moved had to take it down a few years ago. Gave everything to a neighbor kid who was into train's.
Maybe you will restart someday, and make a great Layout! For now you have a happy neighbor Kid! :]
Oh wow! That’s a lot to have or to choose to give away! That was really kind of you!
Great layout. Eagerly waiting to see your automation ideas: time-tables, sequences, …
Beautiful
What an excellent project, and what an excellent video! Brilliant work, thank you for sharing.
Thanks, I feel honored :]
@@Freestylemoba Truly mate, I mean it. I saw a comment on here that was critical of what you’ve achieved and I thought “what a nasty prat to post such a comment.” It’s your layout, it’s your choice how you model it and in my opinion, you have done this amazingly well. I am about to start my own project which I hope will be a similar size and complexity to yours. I doubt it’ll be of similar quality to yours but you know what, I don’t care because it’ll be mine! I congratulate you again on the excellence of your work.
Passion combined with relentless persistence. And art. What a rare display of love.
Thanks :]
Hallo David,

Unbelievable, really admire your workmanship. Can’t wait to see more this year. 🎉
Big Thanks! :]
Wonderful workmanship...thank you for posting 👍...Harry
David, this is by far the best Timelapse I have ever seen of a layout of this magnitude and complexity. Thank you for sharing your passion with the rest of us. I can not wait to see the next episode as you detail.
What is the DCC system you are using? I didn’t recognize it and not sure if it’s available in the State.
Merry Christmas
Big Thanks for youre nice words :]
Im using the LENZ Digital System! And the TrainController Gold Software.

Amazing
I like to watch these giant train rooms or LEGO play rooms or whatever projects.
Incredible and professional work! A pleasure to watch! Kudos!
Thank you! :]
Absolutely fantastic job! Great pleasure watching your work. Congratulations!
Thank you! :]
Incredible attention to detail. Nothing left to chance. Great work.
Thank you! :]
Just awesome, great job and a great video. I am exited to see the "finished" one with landscape and all the details...
Thank you! :]
Incredible. Couldn't stop watching. Bravo, bravo.
Thank you :]
I dont understand the hobby. But i do understand dedication to an idea. The sheer force of will, sticktoitiveness and the cleverness required to design something complex and then sort thru the problems. Good for you. Nicely done. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for these nice words :]
