- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- Finally I´ve found some time to lay my O scale floor layout with the latest additions on it: the new LC+ electric loco I´ve shown in former videos, a MTH bay window caboose, a Lionel vat car carrying tropical fish food and another siding to park all this new rolling stock. Leave your comments, please and don´t forget to subscribe! Thanks for watching.
This is a cool setup.
I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for watching and commenting 🙂
What an amazing fun layout...I really enjoyed watching this.
I'm glad you liked it, John. Have some nice holidays. 🎄🚂🚃
Nice living room layout.🚂🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃🚃
Thank you, Arthur! 😊
@@albersala1968 Your more than welcome👍🚂🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞🚞
Cool video
Thank you. I'm glad you liked it. 😊
This is much nicer than what I thought at first glance. Might build something similar. For those who are lacking space like me, you might try looking into a folding baseboard layout that can be stored under a bed.
A folding baseboard could be a good idea but in my case is not possible. I've got so many things under my beds that I can't keep more things. The only permanent layout I can have for the moment is the small N scale one you can watch in my channel. May be one day...
Thanks for watching and commenting.
I love the layout that you created with THREE trains! I'd go the floor route, too, but we live in a very small house and just zero space to leave something set up for more than a few hours. Some day...
I understand your point. I live in a very small apartment that's why I can't have a permanent O scale layout. Setting some tracks on the floor is the only way for me to enjoy running trains like these. You could start buying some starter set and running it on the floor from time to time. Those sets require very little space and are very easy to play with.
Thanks for watching and for the compliments.
Very cool layout & trains. Cheers from the Detroit & Mackinac Railway 🚂
Thanks a lot, Gary!
Wow this is great for some reason I love the tight curves bc it can make the layout smaller
That's why I use tíght curves. I live in a small apartment and I don't have enough room to have a bigger layout. I'm glad you like it. Thanks for watching.
When you finally make a shelf layout that runs around the room near the ceiling, then you can have great wide radius curves that will make the longer wheel base cars look great. I have done that and then have a long narrow table top o27 lionel layout for my 1950's trains. Yours run nice and slow and smooth. The audio effects and multiple trains on the same trackage is impressive. Have fun.
Your suggestion of a shelf layout around the room near the ceiling is very interesting, but like science fiction to me, Loretta. I would never persuade my wife to do such a thing. For the moment I must be happy to set the layout on the living room floor from time to time and enjoy running some trains. I'm glad you liked it anyway. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Awesome layout. Albert
I´m glad you liked it. Thanks a lot.
Nice layout. You have inspired me
It has been an honor to have been useful to you. Thanks for watching.
How old are you? Trust me get it off the floor.! You'll be glad you did. It is some layout. Nice trains choice. Trust me you want to go bigger. I love model trains. I only found it more fun coming up with a new layout every year, around Christmas time. You got to hand it to Lionel and MTH. Electric trains just don't grow old they get better. By the way, the vista dome goes into the middle. A little FYI.
Hello, Marc. I'm 52. I'm glad you like my layout. I live in a small apartment so the only way I can enjoy it is to place it on the floor from time to time and have it there for a few days. I know that the dome car goes in the middle but It keeps derailing in several places of the layout. That's why it goes behind the loco.
Thanks for watching, Marc. I appreciate your interest and your comments.
@@albersala1968 nice stuff I like it sometimes you gotta run it on the floor I've been there it's fun though
Thank you, Dennis. I really appreciate your interest. Happy New Year.
I love mth trains but there curbs are to sharp for a layout for passenger cars that’s why I use Lionel fast track the passenger cars don’t bend to bad on the curbs that’s why I used it on my permanent layout
I use these sharp MTH curves because I have very little place to set the layout. If I could I'd use larger radius curves because It would be more realistic.
Thanks for watching and commenting. 😊
Not Bad for a floor layout.
Thanks for the compliment. I live in a small flat and can't have a permanent O scale layout. This is all the space I can use without getting divorced. 🤣
Buen video. Te lo pasas bien eh? jejeje . Yo no tengo estas miniaturas por falta de espacio, pero ya quisiera yo jeje.
La verdad es que cuando monto el circuito con estas "miniaturas" me lo paso cañón. El problema es el espacio (o mejor dicho, la falta de él) que no permite tenerlo fijo. Por eso sólo lo monto 2 ó 3 veces al año. Otro problema es que hay que traelos de los EEUU y sale bastante caro. Pero bueno, cuando los tienes aquí y lo pones todo en marcha te lo pasas genial. 😎
Gracias por ver el vídeo y por comentar. Me alegro que te haya gustado. 😊
@@albersala1968 Yo colecciono coches a 1/43, tengo unas vitrinas llenas. Y no me ocupa espacio. Pero los trenes, ya son otra cosa...saludos
@@250renfe Bueno cada uno colecciona lo que le gusta y puede. Los coches a escala 1:43 ocupan poquito. De todas formas si te animases los trenes de escala N no ocupan demasiado y últimamente en esta escala está saliendo mucho material ibérico. Por cierto, yo también me he suscrito a tu canal.
@@albersala1968 Gracias por la suscripcion. Si, los escala N si no estan en maqueta no son ningun problema en cuanto al espacio y al dinero. Lo que pasa es que como colecciono los 1/43 desde hace 8 años pues no puedo hacer dos colecciones al mismo tiempo. Saludos
@@250renfe Te entiendo. A mí me pasa parecido. Al final hay que priorizar con eso de las colecciones porque te acabas dejando un pastón.
Great layout. Could you share the dimensions and drawing of the layout. Thanks.
Thanks for watching, Muye Akinkuotu. I don't know how to share the drawing of my layout but it's based on one you can find in www.mthtrains.com that is called Twice Around. It's about 4X8 feet. I made It a bit narrower and added some sidings to park more trains but the main design is the Twice Around plan I've told you before.
I have the actual daylight and I don’t have the coaches I need to find some online
Could I get a track list? I love this layout
Thanks for watching, yapbird!
My layout is based on one you can find in www.mthtrains.com that is called Twice Around 4X8 feet. I made it a bit narrower and added some sidings to have several trains parked. The track list of my layout is:
- 21 MTH 40-1001 10" straight.
- 1 MTH 40-1008 10" straight
operating track.
- 22 MTH 40-1002 O-31 curve.
- 11 MTH 40-1012 5.5" straight.
- 1 MTH 40-1016 5.0" straight.
- 3 MTH 40-1017 4.25" straight.
- 2 MTH 40-1004 O-31 right-
hand switch.
- 3 MTH 40-1005 O-31 left-hand
switch.
- 5 MTH 40-1024 track bumper.
- 1 MTH 40-1006 90° cross.
I hope you find it useful.
are these tracks O42
No. All the curves are O-31. Thanks for watching and subscribing.
could i make a layout like that using O42 I have a Lionel 6-28339 O Santa Fe Warbonnet Legacy AC6000 #9876 It requires 042 or larger track i am thinking of going with mth tracks i am using lionel fastracks O36 on my 8x13 layout one of my other locomotive goes half way around my layout then die like it hits a dead spot I wonder i clean the tracks but the train sill dies at this one section of the layout any advice
@@flemmingj1965 I'm not sure but I don't think you could build a layout like mine using O-42 curves. However you could build my O-31 layout and add an outer loop using O-42 mth tracks. As for the dead spot, you might try to connect a couple of feeder wires to the piece of track that loses electrical contact.
