They work great! Best when you can look straight at them, but with some clever building you can “hide” the angled bits. And flat front covered by trees.
I LOVE THE BUILDING FRONTS I ENJOY THIS AWESOME LITES YOU ARE JUST BEAUTIFUL AND GORGEOUS LOOKING VERY NICE INDEED THANKS FOR SHARING THIS WITH YOUR SUBSCRIBERS I APPRECIATE YOU BOTH VERY GOOD JOB INDEED THANKS FOR SHARING THERE IS ALWAYS A SHIFT IN THE FORCE 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌
I can't begin to describe what you two have done for my boys and me. We love watching and re-watching your videos to help us work through the obstacles that presents its self while working on our layouts. I work crazy hours and your videos always help me remember there's more out there and not to get stressed out. Thank you both.
Wow!! Thanks that’s great! We work crazy hours too.. but on our projects!! And the show. But we love screwing around building stuff and traveling. Back when I started in TV we worked like 80 hours a week. During the season at least. But if you love what you are doing I can’t think of a better way to spend your time! Anyway gee. Thanks!!!
All your hard work is paying off with a absolutely fantastic looking layout. The flat building do look so real for the small space they have to fit. Great lighting and back ground sound system. All this bring the layout to life and transports you back into a simpler time. Thanks for sharing. Be safe and see you on Sunday.👍🚂🚂🚂🚂🚂
Hi! Thanks again! I think we are back at the intermountain train show Sunday. Haven’t finished it yet. But I seem to be editing that. So I guess that’s Sunday. Unless Chama sand house… but naw I think intermountain.
It goes to show you that old folks can do wonderful things. I have to get back to building a layout again. I have a ton of HO some LGB and I only have room for Z Scale. Love you guys.
The buildings at Angels Camp (4min in) reminds me of Thurmond WV on the Chesapeake & Ohio. I watch your videos regularly and have been taking notes on the scenery tips. I apply them my HO scale free-mo modules.
@1:16 My family used to have that 3D barn mural on our living room wall. That definitely makes for a nice backdrop for the garden railroad...if only mom had kept it....
WHAT A WONDERFUL START AND IT LOOKS VERY EXCITING AND GOOD AWESOME DESIGN AND YOU BOTH ARE AWESOME CRAFTSMAN WITH YOUR EXPERIENCE AND EFFORT IT WILL PAY OFF AT THE END BUT WITH MODELING RAILROADS IT IS NEVER DONE THANK YOU BOTH FOR SHARING THIS WITH YOUR SUBSCRIBERS VERY INTERESTING AND INFORMATIVE I BELIEVE I WATCH FOR YOU BOTH AND YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH THIS PROJECT I BELIEVE THIS IS BECOMING MY GUILTY PLEASURE THANK YOU BOTH AGAIN FOR THIS GOD BLESS YOU ALL BE SAFE AND CAREFUL JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌🙏🙏
Thanks. Need to hook up track power. Today? And mount background sound speakers. And, repaint the front board brown. Now that I see the pictures the white looks bad.
Good stuff. Great work. Love the fact that you two work harmoniously together. Keep it up as we enjoy all that you share with us fanatics about trains & scenery and all of that fun stuff.
Your project is coming along nicely! The sound effects are a nice added feature to bring it all closer to realism. I'm doubtful that your rotary can do anything more than soft powder snow, your snow is a bit heavy and wet for the machine to blow through. But I can relate though, my snowblower can feel the difference. The details of the buildings are enhanced greatly by the lighting, and I really like that. Thanks again for another great video!
JUST ENJOYED SEEING THIS VIDEO THANK YOU BOTH I APPRECIATE YOU BOTH STAY SAFE AND CAREFUL I APPRECIATE YOU THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH YOUR SUBSCRIBERS. JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA
Your logging railroad looks amazing! Whats even more amazing is that a husband and wife team can work together to create such a master piece. Keep on keeping on!
Great layout. Can’t wait to see some trains running on it. Now’s a great time since the snowplow won’t work on your garden railroad. I’m glad you tried though. Snow is tough stuff eh.
Gorgeous layout. BTw I was talking to the Director of Camp Elkana, a Chruch camp run by a couple local Baptist Churches. Elkana was the site of the old Starkey Yard of the Mt. Emily lumber Co.They still use the old bunk Cars wheels, rails and all for summer camp they have made some effort to keep that heritage alive. I had several Railroader Relative work for Mt.Emily.. I've been laid up due to a car wreck (shortly after my wife passed) finally getting over the injury. I'll try to get up there and e-mail some photo of how it looks this spring.. Right now UP's yard in La Grande has two Jordan spreaders for snow removal over the Kamela /Mecham summit.
It's all looking good. The wafer thin background buildings are even more impressive for their lack of real depth than the ones with an inch or two to play with cos you can't tell! Brilliant
Absolutely beautiful logging layout. Like how it’s up above game room and yes, eye level view is so realistic. I’ve watched several of your videos related to structures ect for this logging layout and your work I so to be admired. You two Rock, thanks for sharing, Cary
That looks really good, the eye level view down the track is outstanding. I've covered hundreds of miles of logging roads here in Washington state and you have captured that look and feel very well.
Nice to see the logging railroad all finsihed up and the scenery looks great. It is amazing that Fn3 even in rather samll size and deapth can offer so much for scenic detail and how the track looks realistic. Another WOW is the forced perspective in the buildings, looking forward for that epissode! Hope that you have had a great start of the New Year and you get the logging line running! Cheers! r
THIS VIDEO IS AWESOME GOOD ITS VERY GOOD INDEED THANK YOU FOR SHARING THIS WITH YOUR SUBSCRIBERS JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA NORFOLK SOUTHERN RULES MY RAILS THANK GOODNESS FOR YOU BOTH I APPRECIATE IT AND YOU AND ALL YOUR HARD WORK IT WILL PAY OFF EVEN SYDNEY THINS IT AWESOME GOOD JOB VERY INTERESTING AND IMPRESSIVE THANK YOU AGAIN.
Is this the same "Garagemahal" layout that you were working on before where you were hand laying the track? What the heck have I missed?! I had no idea the layout was going to be mounted up high on the wall or that so much progress had been made! This has turned out great! The buildings and scenery are amazing!
Hi youtubes most wonderful couple! Happy new year! Hope you will have a great 2022. Was wondering saw Badham freight Company. Any chance of a Al figure on the layout? I know just by watching all the old videos how much he ment. Best regards Victor from a cold Stockholm Sweden.
Beautiful! But I'm curious, what was the inspiration behind the storefront name "Joe Smith Lamp Oil?" At any rate, one feels as though one is right there. Love it.
Looks really good love those building fronts so I'm just wondering do you have any plans in the future of maybe extending that logging railroad so if they can actually go and pick up some logs?
Well… I was a sound effects guy for like 40 years? Films and tv. I have a collection of about 200,000 sounds effects. So that’s a mix of several of those.
If u guys like travel and large scale trains. I have a place in ohio that u will love. Entertrainment Junction, cincinatti, oh. U guys would have a blast. I kno its quite a distance. More than ur used to. But im guessing u guys r about due for a trip east of the mississippi
Great stuff, and great vid as usual. Here's a cool Idea for a video. Check out the game Railroads online, and do a sort of compare and contrast with that VR logging railroad experience and the modelling experience. Modeling is always more fun though.
I know he took his layout down but how about an update with Steve? He's been such an integral figure on your channel I would hate to be the next time we hear about him it is sad news.
Hi. Yes he’s still dismantling. Mostly building dioramas out of structures still. Yup. Need an update. Taking apart isn’t as fun as building but it’s all interesting.
G'day from Australia. I know that technically we all speak "English", but some of the terms you "yanks" use have me confused. One example is when you add the words "if you will" onto the end of a sentence?? I've tried verbalising the sentence/s without using those three words and the meaning seems to be exactly the same. So, can you enlighten me as to what value the words "if you will" add to the meaning of a sentence....I'm confused.
That's a, Awesome beautiful Garden Rail Road Dale and, Karyn Awesome job of you
Great backdrops.
the railroads track at water tower looks amazing, very real looking.
Thanks! Steve built the water tank. Really amazing.
It is amazing how well the building fronts work and how they fool the eye into seeing something that is 3-D. Great!
They work great! Best when you can look straight at them, but with some clever building you can “hide” the angled bits. And flat front covered by trees.
Store fronts ... what a great idea.iam going to do that . thank you again for a great video . keep warm. Have a great week 😊
Thanks!!! You stay warm too! It’s amazing here! Well… it’s 35. But compared to 10 that’s great!!
Hey, those lighted building fronts look grand.
Karyn is really good at those. Fun to do too
I am loving this! Wish I could see it in person. I'm sure the camera doens't do it justice. It's amazing.
I'm looking forward to seeing trains running on the logging railroad!!!
Us too. Perhaps today? Perhaps not.. but that’s the plan.
The railroad turned out really, really nice. Love all the little details. Good job!
Gee thanks!!!
These buildings are just beautiful! The whole thing is so good it would look in place at Disneyland!
Beautiful Job! Looking forward to more!
Working on that! For the moment the “end of project” clean up. But first, power to the track!
I LOVE THE BUILDING FRONTS I ENJOY THIS AWESOME LITES YOU ARE JUST BEAUTIFUL AND GORGEOUS LOOKING VERY NICE INDEED THANKS FOR SHARING THIS WITH YOUR SUBSCRIBERS I APPRECIATE YOU BOTH VERY GOOD JOB INDEED THANKS FOR SHARING THERE IS ALWAYS A SHIFT IN THE FORCE 👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌
Great to see it in position. Beautiful!
Hi. Satisfying to have it (almost) done too.

Looking great, sounds great, ok one thing more... choo choo woow wo wooow. have fun running the logging railroad...
Perhaps today! Planning to hook up track power next. Sorta scary too. What if there an electoral problem? Anyway perhaps today!
It goes to show you that old folks can do wonderful things. I have to get back to building a layout again.

@1:16 My family used to have that 3D barn mural on our living room wall. That definitely makes for a nice backdrop for the garden railroad...if only mom had kept it....
We got it off eBay. Burwood. It gave Karyn the idea for the building fronts.

Hi Jim. Well I ran a train on there today. Actually two locomotives. Anyway it works!! More wires to run but so far so good!
Absolutely amazing. It show cases the talents you both have.
Hi Ken. Thanks!!
Dale - that's a true work of art. Can't wait to see a train on it. Just stunning!
Thanks. Need to hook up track power. Today? And mount background sound speakers. And, repaint the front board brown. Now that I see the pictures the white looks bad.
Good stuff. Great work. Love the fact that you two work harmoniously together. Keep it up as we enjoy all that you share with us fanatics about trains & scenery and all of that fun stuff.
Well said..they sure do have fun together
Gets better and better and better! Gives me several new wallpaper screenshots for my iPad. 🙏🏼
Ran a train today! So far so good!
hi from australia...the layout is looking fantastic..and as a bonus the movie theatre is playing one of my favorite movies..
BEST ADVISE I WAS EVER GIVEN.
Just love it, you guys are awesome
Hi!!! Gee!! Thanks!!
Neat!!!! Looks great. And other words of praise.
Thx again for sharing.
How amazing, you two are artists for sure!

Now that's just "Stink'n Cute" And Totally Awesome. Wow Guy's that really came together brilliantly. Cheer's John
I love trains and Mustangs too!
Happy new year
Back at ya!
Things are looking very good ! Like the lighting effect
Your project is coming along nicely! The sound effects are a nice added feature to bring it all closer to realism.

But I can relate though, my snowblower can feel the difference. The details of the buildings are enhanced greatly by the lighting, and I really like that.
Thanks again for another great video!
The rotary is all show and no go! But in its last outing it did great! 1-2” of utah power. Blue it right away!!!

That movie theater reminds me of the film " The Last Picture Show," the town buildings are very cool when lit up during the night scene
Your logging railroad looks amazing! Whats even more amazing is that a husband and wife team can work together to create such a master piece.
Keep on keeping on!
Great layout. Can’t wait to see some trains running on it. Now’s a great time since the snowplow won’t work on your garden railroad. I’m glad you tried though. Snow is tough stuff eh.
Super video. Great store fronts.

Hi and THANKS!!! Hopefully we will have track power today! And a new plan for the Giant Canyon? And the village of Canyon Rim…!
Congratulations , really impressive
Amazing. It is so realistic! You two make an awesome team. Have a Blessed New Year!
Thanks!!!!! We do make a great team.
beautiful modeling
Very nice. Looks like your ready to start hauling logs.
Yup! My couplers don’t line up! Or I’d have been hauling logs yesterday!
Nice work
Thanks!!!
So coool. Nice job guys!!!
That looks really good, the eye level view down the track is outstanding. I've covered hundreds of miles of logging roads here in Washington state and you have captured that look and feel very well.
Looks amazing!
Great stuff.... love how the railroad has to perspectives, looking up and then at eye level. You guys have created a very cool cave!
Great background sounds!
Nice to see the logging railroad all finsihed up and the scenery looks great. It is amazing that Fn3 even in rather samll size and deapth can offer so much for scenic detail and how the track looks realistic.

Be a bit tricky but yes. Should do that. Be fun. And very appropriate.
Beautiful! But I'm curious, what was the inspiration behind the storefront name "Joe Smith Lamp Oil?" At any rate, one feels as though one is right there. Love it.
Hey Dale and, Karen how are, you guy's doing? Happy new year to both of you
Hi. We are great! Just got the Christmas stuff down and put away. Back to models. Happy new year
Looks really good love those building fronts so I'm just wondering do you have any plans in the future of maybe extending that logging railroad so if they can actually go and pick up some logs?
Wow! 😲
Hi! Thanks and happy new year!
Question: in adjusting the track elevations, why not just add shims with a half inch steel plate to make alignment?
Where did you get the background audio? Love the outdoor sounds.
Well… I was a sound effects guy for like 40 years? Films and tv. I have a collection of about 200,000 sounds effects. So that’s a mix of several of those.
Hi wow, how long is your shelf layout please
As of now it’s a total of 30 feet on the yard and shop. 20 feet on the logging and about 35 feet outside. Someday it will all connect. Someday…
If u guys like travel and large scale trains. I have a place in ohio that u will love. Entertrainment Junction, cincinatti, oh. U guys would have a blast. I kno its quite a distance. More than ur used to. But im guessing u guys r about due for a trip east of the mississippi
We do want to see that place!!!!!
TAKE YOUR TIME ALWAYS REMEMBER TO MEASURE TWICE CUT ONCE
Great stuff, and great vid as usual. Here's a cool Idea for a video. Check out the game Railroads online, and do a sort of compare and contrast with that VR logging railroad experience and the modelling experience. Modeling is always more fun though.
Should have called the store “Joe Smith Snake Oil”
Now I know SQUASH Can't be real maybe a Hamms or Miller Highlife but COORS must be a Colorado transplant ! 🤔🤪
Was Sasquatch holding a can of Coors? LMAO!
Yup. Karyn couldn’t resist. So she brewed that up. And, as we are in the mountains of Colorado…….
Sydney preferers to be called "Darryl" (Progressive Insurance)😊
Yea that’s the dude! I forgot his name.
One of my many favorite commercials from Progressive
I know he took his layout down but how about an update with Steve? He's been such an integral figure on your channel I would hate to be the next time we hear about him it is sad news.
