Lionel Legacy PRR '3RS11'

This was sort of a quickie fixed pilot and Kadee job. The pilots are pretty far off from how they should really look so I didn't spend too much time on this project. I also couldn't get the ride height lower by flipping the motor mounts. Still a little better than straight stock...

You're an artist. Your vision and imagination is 2nd to none

[@BrewPub]

Your loco weathering is second to none.

[@rogerhuber3133]

It's hard to describe perfection so just enjoy the video.

[@troywilson2850]

Your layout is gorgeous! I also love the weathering on your trains!

[@switchpointproductions7927]

Most realistic layout i have ever seen!!

[@Laidoffsick]

I've run out of words to describe how great ALL OF IT looks. Your last layout was great but this one is even better!

[@keithm5224]

The horn is fantastic

[@nickltrains6952]

Nice train action. Your layout makes every thing look so real. The PRR 3RS11 looks and sound great. Thanks for sharing. Greetings Nick from New Jersey

[@jnadtrains937]

Such a high level of realism and detail. Very nice work Norm.

[@NatesTrains]

Saw your layout featured on a TM DVD...very cool weathering.

[@adriengadson3544]

This is fantastic ground coverage. The grass and color blends are perfect. ..thx for the video!

[@StrictlySteam]

The layout has such amazing detail. Is a masterpiece!!

[@michaelnaisbitt1639]

I don’t think I have seen a model layout of such realism and detail anywhere The only one that would beat this is the 1 to 1 real thing. Congrats sir 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍👍🚂🚂🚂🇦🇺

[@prowordsmith]

What color do you use to paint/weather your rails? They look really good!

[@randallbyrd1973]

I could watch all day
,TY for sharing

[@mercury7590]

Don’t worry about it being too realistic, the rivet counters can’t do anything about it. Looks pretty good, this... “RS11R”.

[@lionellance]

Wow Norm looks so freakin real... thanks for sharing and keep up the great work... Lance 🚂👍👍👍👍

[@ajmayowskijr]

One scene after the other. Great modeling Norm.

[@huntercoleman460]

How old is that diesel Norm!

[@normstrains]

Not sure, maybe came out in 2010-11? I don't have it anymore.

[@PghTrainFanatic]

Norm your layout never fails to amaze me!! The new legacy engine looks fantastic weathered. I can't get enough of your skill level with modeling and the way you shoot your videos. Top class completely! May I ask, who made the engine house you're using? Thanks so much!

[@austinturley1924]

PghTrainFanatic I know I'm late but the car shop is made by Altoona model works they make really high quality O scale buildings there kind of expensive though.

[@mrlionel1965]

My goodness Norm. All I can say is WOW! I also saw your layout on TM video. It is one of my favorites. May I ask, what are you using for the ballast and turf around your tracks? It is just mind blowing in realistic!Ken.

[@normstrains]

mrlionel1965 thx for the kind words. The ballast is Woodland Scenics Fine Cinders, the turf, etc. is various Scenic Express products.

[@TobyPasman]

Did you order one of Lionel's Vision Line GG1s?

[@normstrains]

Toby Pasman no I don't have any catenary to run one under.

[@Porschedude8]

Awesome!

[@jamesmccoll3660]

GREAT

[@jonnyspeed]

Do you have the ability to do prototypical operations on your layout?

[@normstrains]

Jonathan Hatfield I probably could but I mostly run in circles

[@juanratliff3169]

I have a atlas HO scale RS 11
