When I started modeling, 34 years ago, I chose HO scale because you could not get enough detail in N scale. Boy these guys proved me wrong. Excellent layouts at this show.
Thanks DJ for the shout out. The Free-Mo layout was impressive and the Bay Line module is top notch, well done. My favorite railroads are branch lines, short lines and regionals. With some of them you can own their entire locomotive fleet without breaking the bank.Another great video DJ and I'm already looking forward to next years Altoona N Scale weekend. Cheers, Rich S.
I enjoyed the N scale train show series. Thanks for sharing that to RU-vid. BTW that 1:160 is way difficult to model so my hat is off to all of you ardent N scalers who achieve such realistic model effects. It truly amazes me.
Argh! You backed up too far to finish counting the autoracks. I got 17 passenger cars. Love see you enjoying the trip. Looks like you had a grand time!
What does "Free-Mo" stand for? What happened to the prototype 1776 locomotive? Looks like something peeled off most of the paint. I counted 37 cars on that Amtrak.
Do you have a link for that "N Scale Layout On A Door" channel? Did a search on RU-vid and I see a lot of other channels doing a layout that way but not that specific channel. Excellent video DJ. Keep them coming.
Wish I could have seen it in person but it was just too far to get there in time, probably would have made the last hour if there hadn't been so much construction on the way down. Should have gone over to 219 but I took the route that should have been the fastest by over an hour.
When I started in HO 52 years ago this level of detail was not available in N scale. Good show but HO is small enough for me. I remember when Z scale came out in 1972, that is crazy small.
It’s a modular standard that actually started in Europe for people who wanted to model the US railroad scene. There are FreeMo standards for both N and HO.
