I was a member of a Club that was difficult to get folks to agree on anything! So the fact you have people who are interested in a specific line and time, I feel is a very strong Plus!!!
Wow, a fantastic layout! I especially loved your attention to historic detail. For example the Helms Bakery. Having grown up in LA in the 50,s my school class went on a tour of the bakery. I also fondly remember the Helms man who would drive through our neighborhood and sell baked goods from his Helms truck. I'd love to visit your layout someday.
Thanks for checking in, Josh. There's almost always a question or two after a layout video publishes. Thanks also for your part in making the project happen!
Scale train movement. Oh so nice to see the engineer pull out the slack. When movement is in scale you become immersed in the scene. Model Railfanning at its finest.
@@jgalexander510 You and your members are an inspiration to us all, and show what this hobby could, should be about. Please keep it up! I know all of you inspired me.
Really good layout.. love the older day's.. I have mine 50's to late 70's.. glad I didn't see on your layout a 90'car . You guys kept it real... Thanks for showing, joe
That's an awesome layout very detailed everything I saw is incredibly beautiful! My compliments to everyone who's worked very hard I want to wish everyone there a merry Christmas
Thank you for the tour of your most magnificent layout. You’ve built the jewel that I’ve dreamed of since I first became involved in model railroading over 60 years ago. Excellent gentleman 👏🏻👍🏼😁
Great video John I wish I had found this channel when I still live in Cali, wasnt into computers then then moved to NC and got a laptop LOL Love the layout videos
Haven't been to the layout since 2011, just before I moved away from Katherine Rd., San Su. Wow - so much has changed - You guys have really been busy! Gotta Love it!🤗 🚂Lawrence
Lovely model railroad...just for comparisons sake, if you actually wanted to model the state of California from North to South/East to West in HO 1/87 you would need a layout that was 2.65 miles wide on average and a length of 11.6 miles...that would be to model the state in it's entirety to scale without selective compression.

You aren't the only one. The Helms Bakery building and truck are frequent conversation starters :). Drop by any weekend 1-4pm.
Fantastic video. If any viewers have questions, feel free to let me know. I’m Josh, the first club member in the video :)

Some of the best backdrops that I've ever seen; very impressive operation.
Great layout and tour. Ironically, my mom and dad grew up in San Pedro in the fifties. Thanks for sharing.
Beautiful layout and wonderful presentation. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You folks are all crazy in a good way! Love the setup and tour!

Thanks for the compliment. We’re really proud of the club, and super appreciative of TSG and our club members for documenting it.

All I can say is WOW 😊😎👌👍!
I've never seen a moving cab forward model. To see one in action is so cool.
What a great layout, I could loose a day there.
Watching in New Zealand.

The weathering work on the rolling stock and locomotives is amazing. The technology and features on this layout are fantastic.

This is a very cool model train layout, love how it is completely modeled off of California railways environments

Great tour and video. I have never seen a model of a cab forward move. AWSOME!
Glad you liked it!
Fabulous layout!! Wish I had 40 more years I'd be building one similar to this. Thank for the video.
wonderful layout and interesting explanation about different decoding systems and the logic behind

Pretty wild. We definitely took some license and made some big cuts to get in the important bits.

Does the cab forward have a powered alco diesel in the ender to assist in pulling all those reefers?
Nope! It handles the load all by itself :)
awesome layout folks....beautiful !!!!
Great layout and tour
