Great scenery work. I’m gonna be running a lot of limestone and coal on mine, all live loads. Trying to do the math on how many locos I’ll need on which trains, with some of the mainlines having 1-2% grades.
I really like what you all have accomplished, especially the way you expedited your scenery with the spray on foam it really turned out very nice. I belong to the Railroad Model Club of Atlanta (O scale 2-rail) we just broke ground on our new 7000 sf building to build our new layout. I’ve suggested that we should reach out to groups like yours using tips and techniques to benchmark from.
This is awesome. I love the tornado. It is such a cool feature rarely seen on other layouts. The sfx are pretty neat too and produce a chaotic atmosphere especially with the site of paramedics and firefighters responding. Wow ! The guy doing chest compressions is funny and that lightning is spectacular. Excellent work you guys did with this tornado scene. 😁👍🏻
Sorry we are not really running around it that much yet because we are still building the track on the other side. But I believe I made I short video with something running on it a while ago.
Sorry we only have the members operating on the layout because the work isn't done yet. Plus even the members don't have a lot time to get to operate on it. One day we will get there though.
Good video guys I seen some of the layout that use to belong to Comrail I use to be a member of Comrail back in the 90 when they use to be in Midwest city then we move to OKC and now you all are together witch is awesome well it brings back memories. Robert Moose Guzman
Quite a menacing accomplishment. It was great that the bottom of the funnel was not stuck in one place and could swing around. Kudos to whoever designed and built that and the lighting for the lightning.
Amazing layout. What are the clouds made out of and are they mounted to a board? This is a tremendous layout with fabulous workmanship. The trestle is a beautiful behemoth and the mountains look awesome. Thanks for taking us along and congratulations on over 1000 subscribers, of which, I am one.
Thank you! The clouds are just polly cotton from a store like hobby lobby or a craft store (just pillow material). We use wooden dowel rods to hold it together with 3M spray glue. Yes, it was awesome hitting a 1000 subscribers with this video! 🎉🎉
This is a nice tour of the layout. So massive and with some beautiful detail in scenery and structures. The SF locomotive facility looks great and that is quite the wooden trestle you have there. I also like those ominous looking clouds hanging around waiting to unleash a downpour on the citizens of the town. A good size railyard is also a must-have for any model railroad. Excellent video 👍🏻🚂🚃🚃
This place is awesome! HO scale down stairs and O scale up stairs. You can spend all day there. The details to everything is great. Lots of talented people

What gauge is the narrow gauge? I live in Western Australia and we have a lot of duel gauge, 3’6” and standard gauge 4’81/2”. Actually the east coast of Australia has 3 gauges in some states.
My friend and I went to this layout and it is going to be nice! Unbelievable amount on thought went in to it. Got to see it if you can. They also gave a HO scale layout downstairs, it’s really nice also.
That's the thing about model railroading you can do whatever you want. Just like they don't use "hand claws" to stack the containers but you see it every time anyone runs intermodal trains in model railroading.
