I love seeing trains run at prototypical speeds. As specialty steam locomotives! Beauty in motion !
Superb videography of an amazing layout. Fantastic steam consists with a great variety of wagons. Beautiful realistic weathering! Thank you for posting. I guess every club layout aspires to look like this one or something similar.
I just love the big bridge especially when the trains are crossong it.
a masterpiece. wonderful scenery.
Every time I watch this I see something new. Thanks for sharing this great layout.
Beautiful layout. Great attention to detail
Particularly enjoyed the stock rolling by from 5:43 to 9:26. Nice touches of weathering and road dust to be realistic
More top quality camera work an superb scenery. Thanks for sharing. I can dream viewing this.
This is my favorite supertrain so far and the weathering on the engines is as good as it looks in the video. I am amazed how fast you put this video together, just 4 days.
If I ever go to Colorado, this will be a must see!
Oh yeah, another top video from Bill. Thank you so much for your efforts now and in the past. Your own S.P. Cascades were magnificent as well. I can't thank you enough.
Brilliant work on all levels.
Amazing and love the crystal clear video
Very Impressive Bill . Great work by everyone.
SIMPLY MAGNIFICENT!!
Great video. Amazing museum layout, love that 5 steam engine mixed freight consist.
Six*
There was a head end helper, three midtrain helpers, and one pusher on the rear in addition to the CSA-1 on point.
good way to start my day. cup of coffee and this video.. was some really amazing video shots, lower helper spot and then the bridges. full video was great. thanks for making my morning
Very nice a wonderful layout!
just beautiful. breathtaking work you've done on the the railroad, in a word sir Bravo! thank you for sharing it, I am truly enjoying every moment,.
Peter Norkawich the details of all the things along the way just blows my mind. How long does it take to actually build a layout of this scale and how many people are involved? It's mind blowing to me? And I hate to pry but how much money ? Just an estimate?
Out Of All The Two Hundred + American / Canadian Railroad Modelers Video's That I Have Watched This Is The First I,ve Seen w/a Actual Moving Vehicle (Tanker Truck ) The German/Russian/ European Modeler's Have / Show Them Regularly & Are Very Cool To See Moving Around The Percecptive Layout's
SPECTACULAR!!!!!!!!
Superb scenery!
Hi Bill - Videographer. Like all the realistic action.
• Cheers from The Detroit & Mackinac Railway 🚂
Good stuff man
This is sooooo great love your layout , i just subscribed to your channel thank you so much for taking the time to show off your awesome layout .
Thanks Tony H. It is indeed a great layout, but it is not mine. The layout is the centerpiece of the Colorado Model Railroad Museum in Greeley Colorado. The museum is open to the public. Details at cmrm.org
this is awesome thank you for this
Always fun to see what you can pull off in the model world. Imagine the dispatcher would have been pulling his hair out - not many siding that can handle a 104-car train! And stopping for water and coal...6 times at each tank, the crew would be dead on the law by the first stop!
Just awesome!
Over The Top Awsome,Two Thumbs Up
So cool
This is such an awesome video that I never get tired of watching. How long did it take to get your engines all speed matched and in order with the entire consist?
So many model railroad videos are hard to watch because of the poor videography. My congratulations to your videographer, it is terrific. And the railroad is stunningly good, too. I think I hear a cockatiel chirping in the background at times. I liked that, too.
Great wonderful video. looks like my trains but longer and more spectacular with 5 engines i run DC so very hard to put slaves in it Thanks Bill
wonderful camera work!

The Glory Days of Union Pacific Steam.
Excelente!!
Wow!
Like the pine trees where you get them from. Like the road construction. N the mountains tunnel
It would have been nice to see some steam.
SIX steamers? What kind of DCC system allows that? Or, was this a very well coordinated effort of three operators which would make this an actual helper situation? Then there's the meets! Amazing! I have to get to Greeley! WELL DONE, everyone!
The museum uses NCE DCC. Consisting can be a confusing subject. Tony's Trains usually has good model railroading articles. Have a look at tonystrains.com/complete-guide-to-consisting/
Thank you, Sir. I'm learning more and more about NCE as I prepare to install the Digitrax system I invested in for my Pacific Crest. Our club (Monterey & Salinas Valley Railroad Museum) uses Digitrax and I wanted to have my layout and fleets be compatible. Hearing what I have been hearing regarding Digitrax's customer service recently, I will only have the guys that installed the Museum's Digitrax system install it on my layout. I don't dare do it myself! I invested too much to turn around now.
I have a Digitrax system installed on my home layout. I used their customer service several years ago to upgrade a throttle. At that time their service was fine. I have never had any significant problems with any Digitrax products.
Nor do I hope to. I completely believe in the system. It's my DCC learning curve I don't trust!
WOW was für eine Anlage
Imagine having to wait at a crossing for this train.
KANTAPAT Game waiting at a crossing for this train would be awesome
Muito lindo mesmo perfeito bem projetada fico viajando bestas maquetes
Excellent video, Bill.
A couple of questions: Are the 8000 class brass? Do you installed Tsunami 2 on these? I'm usually not much fan from Tsunami, but these sound pretty good. Second question. My camera is just about to give up. What camera are you using. I noticed that has very good depth of field and resolution for dark environment. Cheers.
Sorry I can't tell you much about the locomotives as they don't belong to me. The consist belongs to another CMRM volunteer.
The camera was a Sony Handycam that is no longer available. I have since replaced it with a Sony FDR-AX 53 Handycam. It will shoot in 4K and has Balanced Optical Steady Shot for hand-held work.
I count two Overlands, one CSA-1, one Santa Fe and two Mikados.
I bet these guys got a replica of earth
Wow
Why so many steam locomotives mixed into that one train? Looks like several small trains made up into one large one. Has PSR time traveled back to the steam era?
Hey Bill:What are the steam locomotive's, class, number, wheel arrangement. Would be nice to see them as they roll by once or twice.
That's a great suggestion. I'll try to keep it in mind for future videos.
Don't understand why Steam Engines would be using DPU's. Each engine has to a full crew to operate, why wouldn't they just break the long train into 6 smaller trains? I do understand this is a model layout running DCC and you can build the train with a 6 engine consist but shouldn't it be more realistic?
That does it. I need a bigger basement.
Like the caboose green light how can I do that I have a union pacific caboose bay window
Are these people that gave this a thumbs down Totally Sick, or just Dumb???
Thanks for your comment Gary, but the thumbs down are inconsequential. At this moment there are 12 down and 460 up. That's 97% thumbs up. How often do you see that kind of agreement about anything? :-)
I think that maybe it is jealousy, or that they just don't have the patience to appreciate the work of others. Sometimes people are negative just to get a rise from others....
@@patriotastronomer6780 Maybe that's it. But as long as people are watching the video and most of them are enjoying it, the thumbs down reactions are not very interesting.
Are the slave engines realistic? Was that actually done back in the day? How would they have communicated to maintain speed? Just asking, cuz I don't know.

It seems as though a drone was used to film this video, yes?
No drones involved. It was done with the rig shown in this video:

Very impressive, where in Colorado is this
The museum is in Greeley, Colorado. There is a link in the description above.
@@jimsteinborn Thanks, looks to be an hours drive from Denver, I hope to visit soon, the scenery is very impressive and I appreciate they keep the videos era specific.
How many cars on the super-train?
The title screen of the video says 104 cars.
Nais American🇺🇸 Stream Lokomotive
You need to graffiti the cars to give it that modern day authenticity. lol
This is not a modern day train. Think 1950s.
Bill Rogers where is this layout I'm curious
It is in Greeley, Colorado and it is open to the public. See their website at: cmrm.org
It's the steam era where there was near zero graffiti. Not likely any spray paint then, either. And,.certainly not the disrespect for private property like we have today.
