This video covers the home layout tours of the 2023 N Scale Convention in Reno / Sparks, Nevada. There were AM/PM layout tours on Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday of the convention. Some of the Saturday layouts were dropped due to conflicts but NSE made it right by offering a full or partial refund. I took the partial refund and went on the one layout that was offered for the Saturday tour. There were some amazing layouts to be seen and some that you can tell the modeler(s) were just enjoying the hobby of model railroading.
I hope you enjoy seeing the layouts from the convention tours! Tony

No problem, Mike. It was a very nice convention this year with many things to do. ~Tony

@DillonTrinhProductions Год назад

It's nice to see local layouts in my home state.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

And what great layouts they are. I'm glad the layout owners were willing to host as the layouts were wonderful to visit. ~Tony

@nscalefun Год назад

AWESOME, EXCELLENT and PERFECT!!!!! Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed the video covering the layout tours. I hope you will check out my other videos covering this year's convention. ~Tony

@nscalefun Год назад

@@CornCountryRails I will check them out.

@adriengadson3544 Год назад

I am glad this came up . RU-vid hasn't been sending notifications on your videos.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

I'm not sure what RU-vid has changed but this is not the first time that some of my videos aren't getting out there like they normally do. Probably because I don't follow some of their creators' ideas to generate more views or ads. To me, if you are subscribed you should get the notifications but I guess RU-vid knows best. I'm glad you were able to find it and hope you enjoyed it! ~Tony

Wow Tony. Those were very nice layouts to view. The N Scale layout in the beginning is unbelievable in size.....John

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Yes, all of the layouts were impressive in their own way and it was nice the layout owners were willing to open them up to share with the N Scale Convention attendees. Just a side note that the first layout in the video was HO, not N scale. ~Tony

@ronaldrondeau7870 Год назад

Thanks for showing thoses layouts

@CornCountryRails Год назад

No problem at all. I'm glad you enjoyed them. ~Tony

@IMRROcom Год назад

Bachelor, you might think. I showed this to the wife. She was, I know a good lawyer... So think about it before you try :)

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Well, when there was more layout than other living quarters in the house.... it makes a person wonder..... ~Tony

@dexterdog62 Год назад

Nice layouts, but doesn’t anyone model in N scale in Nevada?

@DillonTrinhProductions Год назад

Not much sadly.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

The one N scale layout that was offered on a tour I did not sign up for. I understand what you are saying, though. For an N Scale Convention, it would be great if more N Scale layouts would be offered to be toured. However, having set up layout tours before for an NMRA Convention you take the ones that are willing to open up their homes. ~Tony

@vicferrari9380 Год назад

Wonderful time! Unfortunately it looked like a bunch of folks wanderings about looking a scenery and waiting for a train to move.😢

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Yeah, sometimes that happens during a layout tour. ~Tony

@kevinching1975 2 месяца назад

Impressive layout but hot all N scale as title said

@michaelmorgan7893 11 месяцев назад

After seeing the first layout, my idea of building a dual gage N and H.O. modular layout isn't so crazy. after all. I'm doing it because i collect both scales and i can take advantage of both sizes in the way of forced perspective in a limited amount of space.

@tonyromano6220 Год назад

20:27 wow! The ability to limit tracks is rare!

@charleswoods9938 6 месяцев назад

Well I was surprised by not seeing N scale train layouts I seen a lot of HO sized trains even this is supposed to be N scale

@CornCountryRails 5 месяцев назад

When comes to layout tours you take what you can get. There were many nice layouts but a few more N scale ones would have been great! ~Tony

@edwardleslie3849 7 месяцев назад

Do you know the difference between N scale and HO ??? Why show these ridiculous oversized HO layouts when it's supposed to be about N scale ???

@bobwilliams4353 Год назад

These were some pretty impressive layouts. Thanks for showing!

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Bob, I'm glad you enjoyed them. There were several that could keep a person busy for hours during an Op Session. I hope summer is treating you well. ~Tony

Awesome video

10:16 how do turns work on this road, they look like a manual rod setup.

Love that Denver and Rio Grand layout!

@kahunatiki6498 Год назад

Thanks Tony for sharing. I’m amazed at the size of these home layouts. Was the owner of the first layout a lone wolf builder? Personally I liked the last layout the best. I’m a 4x8 Nscaler modeling the Chicago South Shore & South Bend Railroad in the late 60’s trying to be as realistic as reasonably possible and that’s the feeling Igor from the last layout. Hope you are having a great summer. Scott

@CornCountryRails Год назад

I agree some of these layouts were very large, which in my mind means a lot of maintenance and maintaining on one person. I gathered there is a pretty good network of modelers in that area that get together to help each other out. Like you, I am pretty happy with my layout, big enough for me to take care of without seeming like a full-time job. Take care, Tony

@rogerthat6451 Год назад

Tony, thanks for sharing your trip and the convention with us. I really enjoy your channel and content. I’m a CNW modeler but I have a soft spot for the Rock. I grew up in the Chicago area so saw quite a bit of the Rock as a kid.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Thank you for watching. I'm glad you enjoyed the videos and continue to follow my channel. Thanks, Tony

@zwsplac Год назад

Thanks for showing these. I did the Friday/Saturday tours, and looks like I was really missing out on the Wednesday ones.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

All the layouts were good but Wednesday did have some great layouts to visit for the day. ~Tony

@collinsullivan1517 Год назад

Nicely done Tony! Some very impressive layouts indeed.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Thanks, Collin. It is always a great time to see what someone else is doing in the hobby. Plus inspiring to come home to my own layout to keep working away on it. ~Tony

@llanburywellsmrc Год назад

@MidtownSun Год назад

Thank you for sharing these layout tours! I love that the N-scale convention offered these experiences.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

No problem at all. Glad to share them with those that could not attend and those who want to relive the tours if they were able to attend. ~Tony

@KenN.OXN.805 Год назад

Appreciate the time you put in to present this video. Must have taken a few hours of editing. I especially like the way you narrated/commented on each layout instead of merely posting. I’m curious about the one scene where there is a completely covered section on the next to last layout at about 27:03. Do you know the story behind that?

@CornCountryRails Год назад

I'm glad you enjoyed it. There were many beautiful layouts on tour. For the Burlington Northern layout, the staging area was out in a garage. The plexiglass coverings were to help keep dust off the equipment. ~Tony

@KenN.OXN.805 Год назад

@@CornCountryRails that’s a good idea. If I ever get some stuff built, it’ll be in the garage. Got to figure something for the entire track area. Thanks for the info

@MilwaukeeNW Год назад

Nicely done video highlights for those of us who missed it.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it. ~Tony

@robtman9199 Год назад

Wow! Very nice Video Tony, The first layout took up a lot of real estate and I would hate to be in charge of track cleaning. They all looked good and looks like you had a good time. Stay well.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

Yes, the layouts were very impressive, and I'm glad I went on the tours as they never seem to disappoint. I'm glad you enjoyed them as well. ~Tony

@jurigelato4366 Год назад

This layout must be the largest private layout I've seen so far. Jawdropping to be honest. I assume there are several trains in charge of keeping the tracks clean. One of the easiest ways to keep track in good condition is to avoid traction tires. I hate them as they smear their debris all over the place and cars pick them up making maintenance an even more time consuming task.

@CornCountryRails Год назад

@@jurigelato4366 Yes, even in the construction stages it was awe-inspiring. Just looking at the wall with the extra throttles, 18 to 20 operators could be busy for several hours at a time. It was great to see. ~Tony
