    Nice dedication to your father in the end of the video. Was truly moved seeing that. I know you have a another father in your life that raised you and helped with the first layout. I noticed you call him dad also. As a step father myself. I can tell you it means a lot to him that you call him dad. He deserves credit for being a father to you also. Great video again!

      You're right, My step father is every bit my father and I'm always proud to introduce him as my father. For this video, I had just got the Lionel 2016 back from repair and decided to throw it on the track. I couldn't help but think how he would have gotten a kick seeing how far I've gone with this hobby. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Nice. That mountain is cool and absolutely massive. The Conrail units are perfect. The lead unit, SD70mac, was actually a CSX order. They changed the Conrail SD80mac order to SD70macs before the takeover. You can hide that mismatch in the backdrop by using power lines and their respective towers and run them right over the mountain. I see this in many areas as I drive through PA on my way to Atlantic City. Maybe even a microwave tower, which are also on numerous peaks. Either way, the layout is looking excellent.

    Beautiful layout. Few O Guage layouts capture the feeling of big spaces the way yours does. The mountain alone approaches the size of my next HO layout.Also got a kick out of seeing Lake State 1502. These little Lake State switchers hang out in Port Huron, operating the former GTW "paper spur". Again, thoroughly enjoyable.

  • @chatanugadotorg
    @chatanugadotorg Год назад +1

    Awesome addition to the layout! My layout's getting a big change here shortly. In the process of buying a house back in the town I grew up in. In the backyard is a 26x30 foot detached garage that already has insulated doors and walls. With a little fixing up and climate control, my layout (which is thankfully sectional) will soon be getting a new and bigger home.

  • @TheTrainboard
    @TheTrainboard Год назад +3

    Watched a couple of your videos over the years but Chris from RBP trains reminded of your channel. Really like how far your layout has come and how you have blended a lot of different elements. Your mountain looks great! Inspiring me to do some more with my son on our layout. Thanks for sharing-well done on the video production as well.

  • @therosejewelrailroad489
    @therosejewelrailroad489 Год назад +1

    I really like the mountain! Covering up that backdrop seem was a big bonus. The way you built it sounds simple and affordable. I want to try this method on my layout. I agree on the angle of the town. I am really enjoying watching your progress on the layout. Thanks so much for sharing. I enjoy your personality and I hope to meet you someday. Perhaps at York. Take care.

    Hey, Jason. Mountain looks very realistic. Great addition to the layout. Love that Conrail Quality too. Also, just took a vacation up to Lake Erie last week and stopped by Stockyard Express on my way home. I took the trip with my friend and we got to chat with Clyde. Bought 3 NKP green passenger cars and the NS 1801 SD70ACC!

    @tomrogers5516 Год назад +1

    Thanks for this great update on your layout progress, Jason. You've sure added some interesting locos and rolling stock to the collection. I find the Lake State Railroad pieces the most interesting because I've not heard of it before. Looks like many great people got to Train-A-Palooza this year and there were 2 of them! I know Zach from Country Bunkers Trains was glad he made the trip. The mountain is just awesome, but I don't remember your planning to create a second one. Can't wait to see that. Like the angled look of the town. Adds a lot of dynamic interest. Lastly, congrats on 15K subs! I am not surprised. Looking forward to your next update!

  • @donaldfaris4798

  • @ozarkmidlandsouthernrailway
    @ozarkmidlandsouthernrailway Год назад +1

    Wow, Jason, your layout is really looking great! I do like the way you have placed your town roadway at an angle to the track at the front of the layout. The location of the station looks good as well. Very nice. You gave a wonderful update. That new Conrail locomotive is a great addition as is the NS SD40-2 which I really like. The SD40-2 looks right at home. I wonder why, lol. Loved being able to attend this year's get together and to see your wonderful layout in person for a second time. Exciting review which makes excited to see future developments. Jason, thank you! Bill B.

    Holy Norfolk Southern! What an awesome layout progress update! The size and scale of the mountain is incredible. It adds so much height and weight to that section. Thanks for sharing your mountain construction technique. Really nice adds to the roster especially the Conrail caboose with smoke unit. Looking forward to seeing it in action. And you’re overall video is so smooth and natural. You could be in sales…LOL! Keep up the great work!

    Thanks for the update Jason. The mountain makes the layout much more interesting to look at. Maybe add some height differences in the town scene to make it look a bit more interesting and it will also make a more natural connection with the mountain. Enjoy the hobby and I'm looking forward to the next update. Jasper

  • @JB-ej2qy
    @JB-ej2qy 5 месяцев назад

    I made our train layout kid friendly. I’m not sure why I don’t see that very often. Example the table is painted a black satin enamel to mimic asphalt. Then striped for roads. I sponged painted for grassy areas (different colors of green). I also made the buildings movable. In case my son wants to shows me a derailment disaster 😂😂 Basically make it fun. Painted surfaces makes for easy clean up. Trees are just holes for easy removal. Lights and track are the only things mounted to the layout.

  • @mckinleyminer
    @mckinleyminer 10 месяцев назад

    Just joining you for the first time! Great looking layout so far. As far as your backdrop being 'misaligned' at a joint, take note of the original movie 'The Thing From Another World' (Howard Hawks fame) and the backdrop used to show the sky when they went to find the UFO crash site. Some clouds are 'misaligned'! Hollywood had its backdrop issues too! I like the idea of painting your ceiling joists dark gray or black, good effects for the lighting.

    Great video Jason! The mountain is amazing and I like the angled road in the city. Just a thought, but you might put a thin divider inside the tunnel between the top line and the middle line. I could see the triple crown train through the other tunnel as it was going up the hill. Loved the sound system on the SD40-2 and seeing your dad's postwar blow through town was a nice touch at the end! I know your dad is looking down and smiling! Thanks for sharing your layout and Train-a-Palooza with us! ~Ricky

    • @JDStucks

    Hey Jason! Your layout is looking mighty fine. I am an HO and N scale guy myself but can appreciates other's love for O Gauge/Scale model railroading. In previous times, O Gauge really put me off with the locomotives in particular. Pilot attached trucks, oversized couplers/details, etc. I think that your trains actually look really good though and work well with the broader curves that you have in place. I'm looking forward to seeing more progress on the layout. I'd love to see some locomotive/rolling stock weathering in the future if you're into that type of stuff. That would make for an interesting video in my opinion. It would certainly grab my attention too, lol! Anyways, and again. Nice work and great job as always. See you in the next one...

    The mountain looks great just as is, seams and all. Good enough to allow working on other parts of LO without sacrificing much to the overall feel of realism. Great job!
    Nice tribute too. My first train set was an American Flyer freight set that I got for Christmas n 1957. My father sat with me and played trains, so I got the bug early on, been a train buff ever since.
    Looking forward to more updates.
