I'm not sure what KZread 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 KZread knows best.

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

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.

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.

16:36 love the “MFJ”!

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

1:39 OMG.

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

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?
