Every O layout needs a rotary beacon. I am happy you remembered this requirement lol
I think your mountain scene looks perfect just as it sits it doesn't need anything else 👍👍
Great job! That dirt & green mix looks really awesome, totally real!
It’s looking great thus far.
I agree with you about putting a lot of buildings up, at times it does look cluttered.
Keep up the great work, Ron
Love all the Mopar’s in the layout! New set up is great! That Caravelle in the window needs some love out there…
Looking forward to seeing Strohs out there in the new layout!!!
Agreed! Always good to see a scene that includes MoPars! Nice work!
Awesome! Great job, I’m really glad about the speed of your progress and it’s exciting to already see a completed scene! Keep at it!
Thank you! 🥃🍻 hopefully can keep the same pace going with it!
Zach, mountain scene is superlative. 10/10. The cluster of building(s) in middle of diner and industrial building is ok, seems a bit awkward, not quite fits in the middle. Perhaps something a tad smaller? Not sure. I do share your feeling of uncertainty with it. Still love the moon light. Light that sucker up for me in next video as a special request. In summary, landscaping skills are now top notch, layout has a very nice flow and homage to Pabst beer is priceless. Concur with your base 3 gripe. Seems they took a shortcut and or were not well informed of how popular the handheld controller is with so many. Not all of us are app centric.
Well done. Looking forward to next vid.
Thank you sir!! Glad I’m not alone in the thoughts of the buildings. Maybe once some more stuff is placed in the area, will look better. But yea, very awkward at the moment! Hand held remote for life here!! They can keep that app! 😂
Lionel’s controllers are always solid they never die I wish their trains had the same quality. I have the base 3 also and I’m happy so far. I still need to hook up the WiFi.
Looking good, Zach! You're making great headway.🍻
I agree with you. Lionel is getting outrageous prices for a Chinese computer that you would think was made in America. You’re paying for bells and whistles, but you don’t get any bells and whistles. The computer chip in that base is about as complicated as a computer chip in a Casio wristwatch that you get for free in a Cheerios cereal box.
Lionel people are like Harley people. They’ll pay any ridiculous price for anything with their logo on it.
They will, and tell everyone how great it is!! 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
@@CountryBunkersTrains That is so true. It’s your railroad. You do what makes you happy. And you sound extremely happy. That all that matters. ✌️
Just say you’re broke.
@@CountryBunkersTrainswhens the next video coming up
I like the buildings on the side I think it adds a nice contrast to the more natural scenery you’re talking about adding. I also think it looks nice when the train is moving through scenery it adds more depth but either way this is looking great. Maybe a water feature would be nice like a little stream in the mountain.
I really like the new layout and the other one. By the mountain, an airplane flying overhead might look really nice with the area of the new layout
Looks Great!! Thanks for the update!!
Looking good Zach. Great job on the video.
Super awesome Zach
Excellent job on the scenery Zach, those giant trees really look great. A bigfoot would be cool standing beside a Trump😂
😂🤣 thanks Joey!! 🥃
Wow your layout has been coming a long way. Looks really awesome!
At the train club last night the conversation was about getting the new Lionel base to connect to wifi. The mountains are great. Those hills would have a lot of downed trees in real world.
Nice layout,,thanks for sharing,,😊
Looks great Zach!! Great job. Your layout is coming along nicely. You’re taking your time and not rushing it. Tom
Love how the scenic express forest floor came out. I think I might try to make a homemade version 🤞🏾😆
Thanks! Definitely worth trying to replicate! Favorite “ground cover” I’ve used so far! 🥃🍻
Looking great! Can't wait to be able to do a layout.
Looking good Zack getting Quite Fancy All Good.
Sweet update!
New to your layout. I learn something every time I watch. Looks great keep going. Thanks
Thank you for watching!! Appreciate hearing that! 🥃🍻
The new scenery looks amazing Zach! Great job!
That Search light is Live.
Your layout is really taking shape 👍🏻💫💫💫💫💫
Keep up the good work . I love watching your videos.
Thank you!! 🥃🍻
Well done Zach...looks terrific. Love the muscle cars ! 👍
Thanks Jim!! Absolutely, gotta rep the Mopar muscle! 😂 have a great weekend my friend! 🥃🍻
Hi Zach & it's is Randy and i like yours Video is Cool & Thanks Zach & Friends Randy
Hey Randy!! Thanks! Hope you have a great weekend!
Very nice! Everything is coming along at a good pace, for sure. The new Base 3 seems pretty cool. I'm a conventional guy, but I might get the Cab-3 app, so I can run trains on some of my friends layouts. The new scenery is quite fine. I've probably mentioned before, that I'm not good with scenery. My new layout is close go getting scenery started and Caleb Easter said that he would give me pointers, when the time comes. Either way, your new layout looks like it will be super nice. An excellent video, as always.
New bugaloo buildings could go on the second level between the two mountains and the gas station, maybe add a pond or lake too
I think you’re really onto something there!! Maybe not bungalow’s, but perhaps those new hotel sheds I was talking about!? That could look really good in the hills, maybe!? Thank you!! 🥃🍻
Looks great
Great update, looking forward to the next update
Great video Zach
Looking good, i am convinced the city block may be too tall for that area😊also instead of Bigfoot you could do a t Rex or a moose with a giant rack
I'd like to see a tunnel for the cars up top with a mirror in the back that's slightly angled away. This way, you don't see yourself and the reflection looks like the road goes somewhere. I really want to do that on my layout.
Thanks for this update, Zach. Really nice looking mountain forest scene and drive in along that mountain road. The forest with trees and ground cover looks amazing. The ground cover is so natural looking and the variety of pines and fur trees is amazing! It all is coming together and the lower part of mountains range looks to be just as fantastic. The lower part of the new layout will be interesting as you develop your vision, but the flats are definitely a great start. I have no suggestions because I trust your vision and skill.
Looking great nice job
Layout’s looking great Zach. Miss the old layout?
Thank you! I can honestly say, I am not! Miss a little bit of the extra space in the middle, but the new layout even in bare form is looking and acting a whole ton better! Glad for the change so far! Enjoy your weekend!! 🥃🍻
Your scenery is looking great if your Lionel base3 gives you any trouble you can lube it up with that antique oil can
😂 for sure! LOL thank you!!
Looks great, are you going to paint the walls behind the mountains blue to look like sky with some clouds?
Not in this room unfortunately. Once I hit that lotto, and build a proper train building/room, for sure!! Thanks!
PBR Me....Love the Pabst sign
Hey Zach you have really improved the layout a lot. I give you 10 out of 10. I am going to overhaul my layout like yours. It’s a lot of work. Tons of money too. I agree about the eye candy. I like lights and flashing red or green. My 022 switches do some lighting. I notice you don’t have signal blocks. Is it that you don’t like them? Anyhow great job.
Thank you! Hope to have some signal lights soon. Not a ton but a few. No lies there! It definitely takes a bit of $$ doing up a layout! 😓
@@CountryBunkersTrains Great to hear from you. I really like your videos. Very informative and also fun. That’s what it’s all about right? Having fun, watching trains and helping others along the way to have a good time.
Great Video Zack! Loved seeing the update to the layout. I like how your mountain scene is coming together. Are you going to connect the mountain road to the city? If so you could have a the homestead on that second tier as the road goes up. What is that blue car in front of the lift at the gas station? Where did you get it? Thanks for sharing! -Ricky
Hey Zack I would love to get Lionel base 3 one day 😅😅😅😮😮😮😊😊if I have the money
the orange light should light up under certain conditions to show that you are connected to wifi
Does it?? I need to get it fully connected and see what’s up with it
watch the videos from Seans train depot, he explains the operation of the Base 3 and the phone app in detail.
Up on the left mountain you can could put a camping 🏕 set up there, maby some campers with a tent or 2 a fake camp fire but couple campers with a tent or 2 would be cool sitting up there let me know what you think about it?
I do have a little camping scene with figures and a tent… 🤔🤔 might be worth a try! Thanks!! 🥃🍻
What antenna did you use for remote antenna?
👍
Are you putting skirting alongside the bottom of your layouts bench work
Eventually, for sure! Once the wiring is done, hope to
With all the issues that LIONEL has and continues to present more mishaps which there trains right out of the box now it’s a complaint because a light don’t light up or flickers on a new command base really just sayin have a nice day😎.
I have to do so much on my phone these days, the LAST thing I want to do is operate my trains yet again using that @&%#! phone. I will continue to used a handheld and if Lionel does not support their handheld units because of this Base 3 after I've spent so much on Lionel's stuff, I'll just move over to DCS.
