- Cab ride through the layout on Per Laursen's HO scale modern UP layout based in East-Central Texas.
New improved version recorded with a GoPro Hero4 Session camera with MUCH better picture and sound quality.
Also the camera is in the correct cab window height for wide-nose locomotives and the train runs at a slower speed to allow vievers to see more details.
This is the best track work I've ever see. The light is excellent, the signage is terrific, and overall realistic. Great job.
impeccable - even preternaturally realistic - scenery and detailing.
real artistry on display here.
looks like photographs of an "idealized" real world - where everything was kept immaculately clean.
damn. this beats even the world-famous Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg Germany.
as awesomely detailed as that showcase is - its scenes would never be mistaken for photos of reality.
The "stagings" are the staging yards under the layout where the trains originate and terminate. You can Watch the same video but including the staging yards here: ruclips.net/video/VtX3Fmf63qg/видео.html
This layout is so sick! This is my first time seeing someone model contemporary buildings! Great work.
The scenery is amazing! Gives a sense of realism. The rail alongside a highway/interstate is a real world thing too that adds to the overall scheme. Very impressive! If I can do a layout 1/10th as good as this one, I'd be happy.
What a awesome layout! So we'll detailed. Glad I found this thanks for sharing your work.
Fantastic! Every scene is so believable I would forget it's a model. For a while at 8:40 the isle became a river in my mind the lighting and modeling is so good my brain couldn't see it as an isle. Amazing work - thanks for sharing!
If there'd be Oscars to model railroading, you'd get at least 2. Terrific lay-out and ride :o)
That cannot be Texas ! I didn't see one Whataburger on the whole ride. Now I am hungry. Beautiful layout
I love your layout! Most layouts are just a rats nest of track, but yours looks like real places that happen to have a railroad running pas them. If not for the ceiling of the room, your layout looks almost photorealistic! Amazing skills you have! I hope you'll make another video when you finish detailing the sections that are still under construction...
Oh, and would you be willing to show your track plan?
Thank you for your kind comments. I am working on a coal train cab ride which will include the finished section through La Grange. Coming out in a month or so.
@@summitmodeltrainvideos4440 I hope you do. I would love to see it. great layout and great video.
4:54, what did you hit if the camera was inside the train?
The engine hit the sign at 4:54 and knocked the camera off center slightly
Amazing! Easily looks like the real thing in so many locations.
That looks so real I was expecting to see the road traffic move.
A wild taco bell appears
And that person STILL hasn’t gotten their taco order. 😁 Great layout!
AWESOME!!! Your layout is top notch
Dollar Tree , CVS, Taco Bell ...wow , just unbelievable realism ! WOW !
soberbia maqueta de ambiente norteamericano una autentica pasada
Great layout! Very detailed, looks like the actual locations
excellent video, I saw it 12 times and I love it. Congratulations!
I like your layout design I want to make a layout of my own someday also
Layout looks like a blast to run and well built. Love the CTC. Keep it up. Some "How You Did it" videos might be in order.
Awesome layout. Thanks for sharing the video with the rest of us.
Will
Great video. In fact I'm looking forward to more videos like this one and if you can do one at night.
As big as this masterpiece is only one train station???....Would love to see you run a Amtrak or UP heritage excursion train or even BNSF through there...
Nice placement and frming with the camera. I've never seen this but I think I like it very much. Nice layout...
Cab Ride Through The Layout (Without Stagings) New Improved Version.
There's even little graffiti! Amazing!
This model is amazing!! I've never been to the places this is modeled after but I know what looks realistic and what doesn't. This is one of the most realistic models that I've ever seen. The contemporary buildings and streets look just like their real-world counterparts and I enjoyed this cab ride. Thanks for sharing this with us.
This is an awsome model railroad! I love the semi's. Especially that Spread axle Reefer/ Pete.
Excellent!
Great layout and keep up the good work!
Wow. this guy must have a pole barn back of his house, or rent a warehouse. Beautiful and detailed layout. I'd love to see him do a tutorial or two on landscaping - everything looks so natural.
Thanks for the cab ride around your layout,...enjoyed it!! Felt like I was on a real life railroad!
I feel for the poor motorists stuck at the crossings. Never seem to get through!
Awesome cab view. Very realistic. And I have experience in cab views (as my picture shows) when I say good job.
Best cab ride in ho scale.... Great work!!!
Here is a Where's Wally question. How many police cruisers are in the video? Good to see they are keeping law & order by being pro active!. Great video & layout.
Wow! Fantastic! I love your layout...incredible detail. I especially love the view. I felt like I was riding in a real locomotive. Thank you so much for sharing. I look forward to other great videos from you.
Wonderful! Love Love the buildings. One of the best layouts I've seen.
I saw a Swift truck.
Betcha he gets stuck under a bridge!
Omg it was so life like I was so mesmerized by the attention to detail and artistry of the painted walls and landscape I swore there wasn't a wall but real. Super cool. Keep going.
Extremely impressive to say the least ....Wonderful detail and there are parts that make you feel it's actually real...G'day from Tasmania , Australia... I'm building (trying to anyway) a transition era depiction of Santa Fe /BN to BNSF ..and having a ball but I will never achieve the mastery of yours...Inspires me greatly though ...Cheers...
Is this wonderful layout screaming “FALLER CAR SYSTEM!” to anybody else? Look at those long stretches of magnificent roadways. Imagine portions of it with moving vehicles that react to each other and to RR crossings. Mind boggling.
Looked at your N-scale catalogue. Can one buy the palm trees in a packet? Are they gauge-specific, or does one size do for all? I'm modeling Texas, also; Amarillo area to Brownsville area. Long-time subscriber.
That is some nice CGI. I thought it was real for the first few moments
The ONLY way this layout could be better would be going to Hamburg's Miniature Wonderland level no doubt out of the question and having moving road traffic ...Otherwise it's phenomenally realistic and an absolute work of art ...Cheers again ...
Amazing. Where do I send the money for my ticket? This puts a whole different enjoyment into the hobby with a focus on the set, not the train. Little things like graffiti on bridge abutments added a real feel. The realism of the buildings and layout are exceptional. Although, I noticed is the towns are too clean no litter laying about. Thank you for making this.
Can you stop using the horn so much? I'm going to have to ring the railroad company and contact the council to get you people to stop playing with the horn. I've just moved in and don't expect this to be going on night and day. Look it's not my problem that I moved into a house adjoining a railroad. I have a right to sanity. Right then, I'm calling my lawyer on the way to see my congressman - I mean congress-person .. ..
You can't even tell it's a layout (!!!)
This layout is absolutely Sick... the best I've seen on RUclips sofar.... I'm loving all the trucking... and the Waffle House.
When you go past that cut of cars in Clifton, ring your bellDo you get a Advanced Approach prior to Gladewater? Bell past NS units at 10:00.
The attention to detail is just amazing. I was expecting to see an empty Coke can or abandon spare tire somewhere. In the real world you expect to see more trash and debris along the side of the track, in some of the industrial area.lol
Nice layout, but you proved again that sound should always be optional on a model railroad. After a few minutes, the sound becomes just more noise contributing to a headache.
Awesome. I give your layout and video 6 stars.
I virtually never post a comment. And I virtually never appreciate models of flatland and especially am no fan of the modern era. But this rescind,s or perhaps better said transcends fully all that . . . . this is how it is done, and my supreme compliments to all involved. The "feng shui", minimalism, use of (and transition into) backdrop, and virtually invisible choices as to compression of size (e.g: parking lots, Lowe's, etc.) is truly perfection . . . . . an overall "12" on a scale of ten, for sure. Kudos.
(They say in fine carpentry that there is a zen concept of "intentional flaw" to prevent perfection which would offend the gods . . . . or something like that.
That said, if I chose to wax cynical, I would mention the evergreens at 12:34 in the video . . . . . but don't get me wrong, this layout truly gives me reason to live and is nothing less than perfection.)

Your layout is breathtaking, awe-inspiring, magnificent, wonderful, amazing, stunning, staggering, imposing, stirring, impressive; formidable, fearsome,mind boggling, mind-blowing, jaw-dropping, excellent, marvelous.
This is Awesome so many crossing Gates my dream come ture. What an layout wow 👌 👏 😍 👍
I just found who makes the traffic barrels in Waycross.
*some day someone is gonna make a super small camera to fit in these trains thats streams to a pc, and then goes to a VR headset*
Rich P.Wow! A great model railroad, absolutely fun to watch.
That is awesome. Thank you.
I want to do a diorama of Donelson, TN where I grew up. The old L&N used to run on the tracks directly behind my old house. I grew up exploring the railroad tracks and the surrounding woods. Would be nice to have a mock up of the town like it was in mid 70's. I would have replicas of mom & dad's cars in the driveway along with my 69' Firebird. I have an L&N engine and several box and coal cars N-scale to get started with. L&N used to carry coal to the steamplants in Lebanon & Gallatin, TN.
I had recently found those big hour long sets being shown on youtube and just started wishing i could see a cam in the cab view on one. LOL living not far from the area i have traveled there on highway. THIS is COOL. EXCELLENT trainwork. This was the first time ever experiencing anything remotely near being in a train after driving truck for about 14 years. Like i say. just awesome.
Awesome layout. Super video. Waiting to hear conductor call the signal.
It’s like ride wee! Thanks for sharing I think it’s ho scale tracks
Unbelievable scenery,Saw a 71 Lincoln Town Car, a 2006 Chrysler 300 . really enjoyed the ride. one of the most detailed HOLayouts I've ever seen
Absolutely amazing. Layout junkee here, & I've never seen anything as sophisticated and realistic. Can't imagine how many geniuses and $$ were involved. Any specs available? GBU Per.
Thanks for your kind comments. You can see the presentation video here: ruclips.net/video/j4i3Z622MeQ/видео.html and a follow-up video here:ruclips.net/video/F2QuHl7HIR0/видео.html.
I am working on a new version with the latest updates that combines there 2 videos, but it will be a while before it is ready.
You can also see a story on it on my website: www.summit-customcuts.com/modern-ho-layout/
Great !!!! Sober, yet fully detailed scenery where it is appropriate, creating space where necessary.
That mask eliminates a lot of ceiling and enhances a wide, panoramic look at the scenery without the disturbing effects of the wide angle lens. Isolated towns within wide spaced scenery : It feels like a 50 mile ride !! Superb !
The camera work made me feel like a kid on Christmas morning back in 1983. What a 🎁 gift. To say this layout is incredible would be an understatement.
Need to paint more scenery on the left in the fields. Cows, fences, barns, houses
Wow, a real display of just how a skilled model railroad crafts-person can achieve a realistic layout. I can also think of the time and work put towards this top layout. Thank you so much for the enjoyment I had in watching the video.
Your scenery is quite believable and draws one into world.
Don't sweat what you still have left to do; bask in appreciation of the fantastic work already done. Just OuTsTaNdiNg!!
This is beautiful and amazing! Are most of the vehicles on his layout made by herpa? Any other manufacturers? Thanks, Will.
I could swear I'm riding in the cab of a real extra. The only thing that gives it way is no radio. If he piped in a little radio chatter I wouldn't be able to tell which was which.
Beautiful job, one of the best I've ever seen.
Great layout and thank you for the post. This is a very realistic layout. Watched your earlier cabride and this is an improvement except for the distracting cab window which is foggy on the sides and has some white glare on the bottom.
Awesome and realistic layout and cab ride. Thank you so very much for sharing this. Also I found this video so relaxing :-)
Wow, didn't even realize that was the wall at 1:50 until you crossed the street!
Brilliant, the blurring between actual and virtual horizons is really effective. When finished you will have trouble spotting the joins. One of the best!
Wow...the layout is awesome..thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.. Lance
That is the coolest thing I have seen. Never new you could do this with a model. Total awesomeness.
Plenty of cops, but not a fireman to be found :)
Where did you get the crossing signals seen at 1:27?
They were custom built by Tomar Industries.
Love the consistent gradient of the track while the roads dip and climb. And the long parallel runs. Very nice!
Incredible layout and footage....Thank you.
I need a smoke after watching! Man sooo realistic to the T. Thank you for your Van Gogh model!
Each grade crossing signal is about 240 dollars each
*_FANTASTIC!_* The most immersive and realistic scenic-ing I've ever seen.
Amazing video. I've seen some layouts where the cars/trucks etc move as well.
Congratulations on your scenery, especially the greenery. And the random ballast among the ties is a nice touch too.
what a model railroad! you ever been featured in model railroader magizine?
The manuscript and pictures were sent in last week, so they may publish it.
This is a nice video. I like the quality work on the scenery and structures. The cab ride shows a nice scale perspective.
Is there a directors cut with the staging areas? All in All good video..
You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/VtX3Fmf63qg/видео.html
outstanding virtual experience! 5 star! how about a night time version?
Awesome layout. I like all the modern buildings
Great video. Beautiful modern layout. Love the sounds.
Hi. Just tried that link you tube tells me it does not exist.
Andrew Skilling
Great layout!! good signal system!! love the crossings!! What can I say??
Very impressive. The girl tied to the tracks was a nice touch.
Dang, I missed the girl... gotta watch it again.
About 300' past the two dogs humping by the tool shack...
I watched it twice and I saw neither two dogs humping by a tool shed, nor a girl tied to the tracks anywhere.
I’m 1, 5, 9, and easily 11 😂😂😂
Fabulous job, just fabulous! Well done and thanks for the ride~\
This is the best I have ever seen. For realism I will give you 100%.
