    Fantastic club. Brings back some great memories, in 1970 going into jr.high they had a lot of different clubs, my friends and I would read all the model railroading magazines. We asked if we could start a club, and they not only said yes but they gave us an entire unused classroom. The janitors cleared out all the desks and stored equipment and furnished us with all the supplies. I went back several years later and it was still growing. Good times indeed.

    Was a member for a few years there. It was during a major shift in the old guard leaving (some not so nicely), and the new guard coming in. It's been great to see the layout get new life pumped into it. I've been visiting it since I was a kid.

      Thank you for watching the Lake County Model Railroad Club does a great job! I'm always impressed, especially with the sections of hand laid track.

    I would like to see a production house document your magnificent layout so the trains can tell the story really bring it to life.

    • @schmidty390
      @schmidty390  3 месяца назад

      The model railroad club would probably benefit from that, or I'd have to film it, nor during an open house.

    At around 19:00 on the video, there are quad diamonds on a curve. Are those four diamonds hand built?

    • @schmidty390
      @schmidty390  9 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, a lot of the trackwork on this clubs layout in handlaid rail.

      I wanted to try hand laying track 40 plus years ago but never did. Now my eyesight and my patience tells me not to try.

    As usual, no action on the Red Island line. When I was a member, I would spend hours running and switching the branch line. Great club! LCMRRC has come a long way and is still going strong.

    A fine layout. But I notice the lack of landscaping in regards to vegetation. I would expect trees and bushes all over the area. But no. Why is that? You will forgive me because after visiting Howard Zanes incredible layout I'm spoiled by his layout and any layout that is huge as his should be finished in the same manner.

    • @schmidty390
      @schmidty390  10 месяцев назад

      This layout was built in stages, and a lot of it was built in the 70s and 80s, and the scenery reflects it. Could it use a freshening in some spots for sure.

    I am sorry to be complain but the people talking constantly and mumbling and hands reaching out to almost touch cars ruined this video of a nice layout for me. Jeez who does that shit when recording a youtube movie?

    • @schmidty390
      @schmidty390  5 месяцев назад

      It was during an open house, so there are going to be a lot of people. Very little space to move around and shoot video. Plus, they are all talking which is ok.
