Moving forward on Thunder Mesa 2.0! It's time to break down Calico, Circle D Ranch, and Rainbow Ridge while taking special care of the structures and scenery components that will be re-used on the new layout. I save just about everything else too, like track, wiring, electronics, and even wood that can be used again.
Thanks for watching, amigos!

I believe the rule of thumb when it comes to art is; You can paint over it, as long as what you are doing is going to be better. 😆 I fully trust that this will indeed be the case for 2.0. 👍👍

@garrettswoodworx1873 5 месяцев назад

You're right: Parts of that were hard to watch, especially because that's where I was introduced to Thunder Mesa. Having said that, the anticipation of watching 2.0 come to life is filling me with excitement for what's to come! Thanks for taking us along on the journey Dave.

Never thought the dismantling of your layout would be so instructive whilst still being entertaining and giving hints for the future of Thunder Mesa, To quote the L&B heritage railway in the UK "perhaps it's only sleeping".

@scottrobertson56 5 месяцев назад

Many of my friends thought I was crazy when I tore down my old layout and started again. However, I found it invigorating and I found my mojo again. I know you are feeling the same thing. Like others I look forward to following along with your new adventure.

Just got home from a Righteous Brothers concert and turned to your channel to discover that " you've lost that lovin' feeling" for the old TM. 😏 Wow ...that was downright painful watching the deconstruction. I know...I know....out with the old and in with the new...but geez!!!

Eggs, omelettes, etc.

The Trauma is us watching you take an awesome lay out apart !

@pennybehm1001 5 месяцев назад

Have been watching you from the start we love it and you’re the best . Can I suggest you introduce curved corners to the back ground. Great job keep up the good work .

@markdeschane4467 5 месяцев назад

No sadness, as I just think about all the videos of new construction!!!

@toddainsworth795 5 месяцев назад

Great video Dave. Very inspiringirational way to keep creativity at a high level.Looking forward to the new improved version.

The layout was very pretty, sad to see it go. But very excited to see the new layout and the building process.

II grew up (though I didn't know who he was) watching a taped PBS Ward Kimball model train show and as a adult I have equally enjoyed and been inspired by Thunder Mesa Studios. Though after watching a few videos I think the updates will be great, I was very sad thinking at first it was going to be lost

@TamarackFilmCo 6 месяцев назад

I’ve never watched a layout DE-construction before. While sad it’s also oddly satisfying & encouraging!

@shadowfaxx5 5 месяцев назад

I love the construction parts of projects and I am looking forward to watching you build the new layout!

@dkaustin98 5 месяцев назад

Oooouuuccchhhhh!!!!! That hurts!!!! Yes, watching a beautiful layout, that we wish we could have built, come apart is painful! I had those same style shelves in my train room. Hated those things. Ended up tossing those out.

@andreasatlars4281 5 месяцев назад

Following along since I saw Thunder Mesa 1.0 on the Railroad Line forums and watching you getting better and better all along I'm sure 2.0 will be even more spectacular.

@richardsweeney197 5 месяцев назад

Great video!! If I didn't have faith in your ability to build it better I would be devastated to watch this but, I have faith. Always Forward!

@RobertGoslin 6 месяцев назад

Another great video Dave. You really are "Moving Forward". I was just a bit worried about you removing that backdrop on your own. I'm only two months younger that you, so know i can't do things now that i used too.. Maybe get some help if you can, if you have to do any more really awkward moving of things. Loving all the changes in store. Cheers Rob.

@Badeumus 5 месяцев назад

hey Dave looks great so far! only recommendation I have to to add a wye at Thunder Mesa (a switch running from just past the depot to the tunnel) as you currently have no way to turn trains.

@tuskarthetauren 5 месяцев назад

More than hard to watch, it's exciting to see how fast You're progressing to start with 2.0 of Your layout. I'm now curious how all the beautiful buildings will come together in a new way.

@theragingdolphinsmaniac4696 5 месяцев назад

You're killing me Dave watching all that hard work get ripped up...but I have done the same thing when the work I did needed to be done better, so I understand.

@royreynolds108 5 месяцев назад

Where some of the track was, looks a whole lot like an abandoned rail line after track removal.

@davidpaul8289 5 месяцев назад

I did the same thing a few years ago and remember the mixed feelings the process brought ... the sadness of destruction, but the fun of moving on to something better. Kind of like "the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat" (thank you Jim McKay and Wide World of Sports) applied to model railroading. Always a pleasure to see what you are up to and learning from your efforts.

@ThunderMesaStudio 5 месяцев назад

Mixed feelings indeed

@RobBean-wf9ie 6 месяцев назад

Thanks Dave, another interesting installment for 2.0…. Sad to see your hard work go out the door, but, looking forward to the new version of Calico and circle ‘D’…

@loispadgett6306 5 месяцев назад

Sad to say goodbye but excited for the new build. Will remember to not glue buildlings down makes it easier for repairs if needed or changes. Thanks for sharing. GOD BLESS 🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖

@LifeIsAnArt95 5 месяцев назад

It is like watching the Gorre & Daphetid being disassembled. Thunder Mesa is such an amazing work of art! But I applaud your courage!!! Looking forward to your vision of TM 2.0!

@ThunderMesaStudio 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for the kind comparison

@Joker96624 5 месяцев назад

I’m really looking forward to what future scenes and towns you end up making!

@NotSomebody63 5 месяцев назад

Thank you sir!!!! I am sorry to see it gone but I am looking forward to your new adventure/layout! I am trying to get to a point of building my first layout. I just got to help my oldest daughter get moved in then I will be able to start building myself....I can not wait!!!! Like you say, Just keep moving forward! I think that is what you say. Have a great day!!!

@aussiefrenchman-hobbytable9960 5 месяцев назад

That was more fun than what i thought it would be! Dad 82 has taken down 4 layouts , gets bored and starts again, me at 60 , im starting my 2nd layout, hopefully will not make the same mistakes as the first one , not being able to reach certain areas, being planning for a year now, keeping it simple, no inclines, 2 levels, one for passenger, the other freight with a couple of industries, calling it Greygoose Mountain, looking forward your new layout Dave 👍👍👍have a good one mate

@user-sv4pj5jl8n 5 месяцев назад

Dave, I learned something from your video. After watching you struggle with your massave backdrops I decided to not make a massive backdrop and attach it to the layout, not the wall. My layout the Butte Annachonda and Pacific is being built in a basement and It will be modular. I gathered ideas for leg and table construction from the Pete Watterman Making Tracks IV series. Using rollers is the way to go for my back!

@BNSFfan1848 5 месяцев назад

Awesome video Dave!

Zen and the Art of Model Trains... Everything is impermanent and incomplete. A new project is started before the old project is completed. If anything gets close to finished, it is time to tear it out and start over. The model train maker is in a constant state of doing, the model train layout is in a constant state of becoming.

@WarpedHorizon 5 месяцев назад

Hey Dave have you seen the Toma Model Works drive units? They are ridiculously tiny, in N scale I hope to use one to build a minuscule Plymouth gas switcher, in On18 it would be a perfect base for a tiny Porter or even a Shay.

@ThunderMesaStudio 5 месяцев назад

Those look like great drives
