I would love to see a complete Tennessee pass model rr that's has florence, canyon city, cotopaxi, and Salida keep in mind cotopaxi contains 2 gate less crossing that have flashing red lights.
Really great job on the track work. Everything ran nice and smooth. Nice and quiet too with your roadbed material, even where it was on the bare plywood section.
Really nice full size templates and quality backdrops. Perhaps you should recommend that your customers use clear tape to hold down the layout plans if you don’t want them to pull the tape off. Can you give us an idea of the cost of the full size layout template. For simplicity can you price out a 30” X 10 foot section so we can estimate what the price would be if we needed 1 or 5 of them depending on the size of our layout? Thank you.
Excellent Idea. I have much grass to do only my layout and I really like this idea. I always enjoy watching a tips video that is applicable to something I will soon be working on. Thank you for this tip and Keep em coming! :-) Brian
Sorry For that, it was made with little lighting available in the room...we have more and better videos coming as we have now finished the project, just haven't had time to get them up.
I just saw the videos of the railroad you did for Brian Krzanich, and now a railroad for Ed Feulner.....you seem to be the builder to the corporate stars......You didn't mention it so I will. For those of you who don't know Ed Feulner is the CEO of the Heritage Foundation think tank in Washington. He also writes for the Washington Post and I see him on Fox news a lot....or used to, I guess he is now too busy playing with the layout you built him.
This a one of the most amazing railroads I have seen. The waterfall canyon scene with the trestle is indescribably fantastic and really makes the whole layout. I visit the Mount Shasta area 7 to 8 times a year and you have REALLY captured the look. Your trees in that scene are the best representation of rocky/cascade mountain pines and douglas firs I have seen! Do you sell them and if so how do I purchase?
Sorry for the late delay, I don't get to check the site regularly. To purchase our trees you can contact us directly at 800-216-9202 or AffordableModelRailroads@gmail.com
I've followed this procedure, and it works great. James worked with me, but I installed a section of my backdrop. I'm very happy with the look of the backdrops--the photos are great, and James has a wide variety of scenes available. Plus, he's always taking more pictures.
This particular layout I have some questions about . What is the overall size of layout , so you have an overview or track plan of it . Also what was the cost for this particular layout in the form that it is in this video.. I like it and would like to have one like it
This layout is 12' x 16' and including design, benchwork, subroadbed, roadbed, track, turnouts, turnout motors (not yet installed in this video), wiring for 2 bus DCC (Not yet installed in this video) plus accessory bus, delivery, set-up and testing was in the neighborhood of $28,000. If you go to our website at www.AffordableModelRailroads.com you can see some photos of the finished scenic'd layout in our photo gallery section. All of our designs are custom for each client and we do not duplicate them; however, call me at 800-216-9202 and we can discuss building on with similar features designed specifically for your room, industries and budget....James Adams, Owner Affordable Model Railroads.
