    This is an amazing model RR.
    Needs some steam and 1st gen power.

    I’m glad that I’m such a novice I can enjoy this beautiful train layout.
    When it comes to trains I still have a little boy mentality. I can only feel sorry for the ‘experts’ who’ve lost that.

    The last time I touched an HO engine had to be 1959 or 60. Now at 76.
    I still know, and remember the secret to a great layout. IMAGINATION. Terrific dedication to your little dreams becoming Big. Wonderful site.

    I think the layout is awesome and very detailed. But your village, cars, trucks and the whole theme is late 1950's or 1960's. Your locomotives are all late model. You need some GP7 or GP9 locomotives and maybe some F7 units would be a good touch. I am a retired railroader and love the hobby.

  • @aniburns329

    Sorry, pressed wrong button! To continue what I was saying is that the way I've wired the layout,via googling it, I've made a mistake somewhere along the lines (no pun intended), where when I want to transfer a loco from the main (out direction,ie, from Central (city district for any that don't know what I mean), through a double X crossover to connecting line leading to the shunting area! Every time I try this the loco stops dead as if it's getting no power from the frogs or track , I don't know? I've got DCC set up, but I've also got some pre 90's & 2000 engines that I was told I could run with a simple (but a little pricey) conversion. When this happens, even though I've got signals set to stop the other train(s) from a collision, it just won't get across unless I manually touch wires to the track, which by doing so negates my signals to either slow any oncoming traffic at a certain pre arranged distance or stop any trains that are within the 'danger' zone,ie,@ 6 feet on my layout. This happens whether the train is old or new. Someone on You Tube suggested checking for voltage spikes and dead spots with a meter,or check that your crossover is actually functional and is doing what it's supposed to do !! I may have to rip it up and replace it with a new one!! Anyways,has anyone else had a problem like this on their layout?? Let me know if you want, I'd like to hear about any other problems train enthusiasts face!! Thanx guys!! .

    I’m gonna ask a dumb question because I’m. Just wanting to get into this. What is the best scale to get into I don’t wanna mini but I don’t want big either. I like the in between look. And also where do you go to find all these building and rocks and things you have in this video. Maybe a silly question but this is awesome

    1st & foremost excellent job. But since it's a Florida railroad club why not have the layout Florida themed? For instance, rock trains and phosphate operations? Maybe that's too much to expect. I mean some type of citrus operations some auto racks and what not?

    Amazing layout! I'm curious, what brand & power size of the transformer are you using to run a layout of this size? Are you having to use power packs to sustain the electrical current? While watching the video it would be useful to an amateur such as myself if someone would narrate some of the technical expertise you employed in building this model.

    A great layout, however I think it is a pity that the makers of this layout didn't choose to take locomotives that do fit to the time frame that did determine the layout itself. Especially this CSX coal train doesn't belong in that time frame, as an example of what I mean.

    • @makerjeff86
      @makerjeff86 2 года назад +5

      They actually did. The layout is based in the late '50s. Period correct locos and rolling stock throughout the layout for our operating sessions. This video is from an open Saturdays where members can run anything they like.
