Been following your layout for a few weeks now across social media. You really capture the escence of the area you are modeling quite well. That all said. Are you excited for the P&W M420s coming out from Rapio?
Thank you, I’m working on 3 particular areas from the Prototype. Valley Falls is really the most Prototypical of the 3 right down to the background. Still more to do .
I don’t have any ordered. They are out on f my modeling era. They were pretty much gone by the time I start modeling the P&W. Plus I’m not to impressed with Rapido. Seems every locomotive has issues . Motors , decoder failures. I’m an Atlas guy. My whole fleet is Atlas and ESU.
The layout is magnificent. The scenery looks amazing and realistic. However, I see that the railroad crossing gates and signals at 11:47 and 13:13 responds way too slow as the train approaches them. That's dangerous in real life. Good thing the delays occurs on a model railroad layout because you don't have to worry about fatalities. 😂
Those to crossing are stop and protect. Meaning the crews have to make sure the gates are down before they proceed. There is lots of switching going on at both locations.
