    It is like a punch in the gut to know that the creator of such a masterpiece has passed. I am so glad you were able to meet him and help share this work of art with us all. R.I.P. Tim

    As a non modeller this layout is mind blowing. I have no idea how you could conceive and build such a thing. The narration and filming does justice such a wonderful piece of art.

    I first met Tim in Kindergarten at Sunflower Elementary School in Glendora. I don't remember our first conversation, but I'm sure it involved trains. Tim gave me my love of trains and model railroading (and my first kitten!). He opened his heart and house to so many model railroaders. He is greatly missed. R.I.P. my friend...

    Dang. So sad to hear of Tim's passing. He was definitely a master of his craft and his beautiful layout really does the Pacific Division justice. I wasn't around in '76, but I really feel like I'm transported back there when I see this layout.

    RIP Tim, you left quite a remarkable effort for all of us to enjoy. Hat tip, too on the production for this video. Every aspect matches the quality of Tim's legacy. It is quite simply one of the most professional productions I have seen in this sector. Arguably, the best. Congrats to all involved and thank you for the time well spent in viewing the work.

    I’ve literally watched videos for years of this layout. Was one of the big reasons I got so deep into BN along with my SF diesel fleet. Bittersweet to rewind 50 years on my new layout but I’m sure I’ll have an excuse to run them every so often

  • @johnniewelbornjr.8940
    @johnniewelbornjr.8940 2 года назад

    I didn't realize he had passed away and I recall this sense of loss when hearing of modelers I grew up admiring during my active modeling years in 80's and 90's. Such modelers are far and few between... You were quite fortunate indeed to capture all of this beautifully detailed layout that was not only superb in appearance but also exceptionally interesting from an operating standpoint. The old Alcos, first and second generation power (a hodge-podge after the merger, of course), the lighting (from overall to the signs and signals) were simply incredible. Thanks for sharing this.

  • @dennisjones8991
    @dennisjones8991 2 года назад +1

    The audio for this is amazing. To catch this, Tim must have been either a railroader or a very active modeler. The way the sounds are represented are mind blowing, from the sounds of notch 8, the air "snaps", air horns and the dynamic brake noises of the locos, though the high pitched whine of metal upon metal in the curves along with the rumble of empty cars and the rattle of wheels across the jointed track. Love this! I worked as a crew transporter for BNSF, UP and Amtrak and smaller roads in the Pacific NW.

    • @beeble2003
      @beeble2003 2 года назад

  • @chuckholsclaw6829

Your layout and videos of other's layouts is bringing our hobby to a new level. Thank you!

    Back about 1990 on a siding track north of Lebanon , OHIO(ex PRR) rested a locomotive that was used for switching the line.
    It was a "pure" BN RS11.
    No alteration of the paint job at all.
    Have often wondered what ever happened to it.
    For many years former C&O GP7 operated this line. I&O GP 7 55 is the oldest operating GP 7 in the USA.

    I've seen this layout over the years being built it's a nice recreation layout. 1:30 a little detail I notice every Model Railroader misses when building when having Traffic stopped at crossings or just on the layout is No drivers are ever in any vehicles.
