Exceptional spooky layout with special memories of filling our treat bags, going door to door, oh so many years ago. Good stuff. Happy Halloween. Gary and Ryan send regards.
Thank you! Yes, pretty big holiday in our household. This was my 7th year of building a Halloween Layout. Now the neighborhood loves it and checks the progress as I’m building it! Lol
Totally enjoyable and entertaining. Very well done like all your holiday layouts. Love the MOPAR in front of the Dead Zone. Thanks Mike...Happy Halloween Christian ! 👍👍👍
Very nice Mike! I worked so hard on getting my wife’s Halloween layout finished and forgot to do a video. Then tonight it got cold and windy with snow and we didn’t even turn it on lol. I guess I’ll make a video Nov. 1st and post it. Time to start on the Christmas Layout! Thanks for sharing! @Cbtrainnut
Ohhh man! It was a cold one tonight for sure, no snow though. It was really windy out and I was surprised at the number of trick or treaters braving the cold. 🥶. Christian and I shut down at 7:45. Looking forward to your video, and of course CHRISTMAS! My favorite layouts to build. 🙂
Love your Lionel and SPOOKY Town setup Mike and I just have Got into collecting the Spooky town village I plan on trying to collect as much Spooky town village I can
Mike, this is incredible! So many different scenes throughout Love the Mystery Machine and other car at crossing gate. Gotta love those telephone poles and lights! Such a nice finish to an awesome Layout! The neighbors are in for a real treat! Happy Halloween!
Thank you Joe! I’m happy you liked it. I wish we were neighbors, between your layout and mine we’d have the entire neighborhood stopping to check them out! 👍
That was awesome Mike. Lots of cool stuff to see. I loved the zombies and the pumpkins sections. I also really like that MTH engine. I don't have that one but I might have to see about getting it now. Great Job. Happy Halloween Mike.
I did get some Halloween layout pieces, as well as the Lionel Halloween Mikado LionChief Plus locomotive, but I was never able to finish it. I only ran my train once because it was too hot most of the time, and whenever it was cool enough to open my garage doors, wasps and mosquitoes would invade, forcing me to abandon the area(we live out in the country in SW Missouri). Until I can insulate and get air-conditioning in there, I may just have to live vicariously through other's accounts. 😞
I’m in St Louis Missouri area, I get it for sure! It was a hot October then really cold on Halloween. The layout and locomotives liked it I think. Everything was on and running from 4 to 8:30 that evening. The Halloween Mikado is cool, nice piece to have in the line up. 👍
@Crazy4TrainsToysNHobbies That sounds cool! I think I set my expectations too high. We bought this home just a year ago, and the garage was a real mess because of the previous owner's neglect. I wanted to get it cleaned up and nice enough to enjoy during the season, but I couldn't do it as quickly as desired. There's always next year, I guess.
@traindabbler yes there is! I’ll be expecting a post somewhere from you! Lol. I go to Branson all the time in SW Missouri. I like the shop on the strip that has Department 56 buildings and Thomas Kincaid paintings. I try to pick up a few things from them throughout the year.
@Crazy4TrainsToysNHobbies Thanks for the encouragement! I'll have to remember that about Branson. We haven't had a chance to go yet. I'll be posting up when I get my Christmas train layout under the tree. I had a decent layout last Christmas, but it was hectic dealing with the conditions of getting settled into the new place, and I didn't start this YT channel until a couple of months afterward. 👍

You’re welcome, I just subscribed! I’ll be looking forward to it! Love the KCS video….it’s our favorite modern road. 👍. Thank you
And P.S HAPPY HALLOWEEN Mike
Happy Halloween! 🎃👻🧛♀️👀🦇
HEY MIKE ITS SHOWTIME ;-)
Yes it is!
Very nice Halloween layout Mike, I love all your buildings and enjoy watching the animation. Are these all Department 56 buildings?
Thank you 🙂 Most of them are Lemax with some department 56 mixed in. At Christmas it’s reversed, mostly Department 56 with a little Lemax.
Awesome, sure looks great on your layout.
Thank you
Mike is your Halloween layout going to be permanent ;-)
No sir, I’ll take it down in the next couple weeks and build a new one next year.
