Another very well done video. I enjoyed this, sad to miss this one. I see some ole friends there, and impressed with the action many layouts had. Maybe some individual information on certain displays in the future if there is time of course. Many electrical wizardry things going on that some of us may learn something more. Thanks again for going the extra mile and sharing this event for us snowbirds.

I appreciate the work and detail of the layout. I never realized how much action that fills the trolley area. May I ask if you can provide the LxW area dimensions, seen in the diorama of the Lionel accessories and Plasticville building area? Is the modular table by the Lionel Collectors Club of America? The Disney Characters are a nice touch. Where are the origins of the sky gondolas?

About 33" by 71.5" I think. We use two different length straight modules. The short version is three fast track straights long plus a half section and the larger which is the one you mention is twice that. There is more detail in my 2019 show video. I do not have one handy measure. Check out the 2019 video for details. They rest on a very unique collapsing table system.

@@johnlongssilverrailz5873 I'll look for the 2019 video. Thank you very much for your kind reply. P.S. What is the source of the Sky-ride Gondola's.

@johnlongssilverrailz5873 Год назад

The sky gons are from Walt Disney World, maybe on ebay though. The towers are 3d printed

Looks like it was a fun show John! Did you get anything?

@johnlongssilverrailz5873 2 года назад

HO Rivarossi Hiawatha passenger cars - about 11, a pre-war Lionel tender, numerous building kits.Since I had not been to a show due to the shut-down for such a long time, I had a hard time taking it all in and on focusing on it all. My daughter took most of the video content. Thanks for watching.

LOSE THE "MUSIC"!!!!!

@johnlongssilverrailz5873 2 года назад

You make a good point. Perhaps the music was too loud. The song at the beginning was built into one of the displays however. I too often am distracted by you tube music. Its selection seems to be hit or miss. Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching.

@@johnlongssilverrailz5873 The intro music is good. I thought the background music was playing in the hall. And interestingly, the music is part of the display. I also thought John's microphone was muffled and not picking up his voice. There is an excellent selection and variety of music accompanying the video. Hi and Happy is great.
