Amazing O Gauge Layout Tour - Realistic Model Railroad

Prepare to step back in time to the Heyday of West Coast Railroading. It’s been two years since my last Layout Tour, and we have so much to catch up on. Gone are the days of modeling a scenic railroad and the powerhouses of the West have established their empires. Daylight, Armor Yellow, and Warbonnet dominate the rails and you won’t believe your eyes when you see how much the layout has changed. The best way to experience it all is by rail and you’ve got a first-class ticket! We’ll hop aboard the Daylight and take a round trip around the line and stop at all the sights along the way. With so much to see and a few hidden secrets, you won’t want to miss out! Let’s climb aboard our train and get the best seat in the house. Come along with me as we tour the entirety of the Jordanova Sub!! All Aboard!!

    I never would have guessed 6’x12’ for your layout. Truly amazing and I’m sure John Allen of the Gorre & Daphetid would applaud you not only for your hard work but for the use of visual deception to make the scenes not only seem larger-than-life but with how much detail is packed in there. Bravo! On a side note, perhaps you should consider adding some catenary for your electric locomotives and perhaps even some boxcars and other rolling stock from Mexico, the Northeastern US (BAR) and Canada (I’ve seen plenty of videos where CN and CP boxcars make some visits to the sunny sunbaked lands of the Southwestern United States.). I’m not sure if Mexican engines have ever visited the U.S. but I’m sure it would be interesting to see an NdeM ‘Niagra’ or an ex-NKP 2-8-2 burning oil rounding the curve for a little visit. On another note, have you considered perhaps enlarging your layout? Perhaps adding a spur to “the outside world” which would allow you to add more industries and the like for your railroad?

    Hi johnny. Very interesting story in presenting your trains and the landscape. I thought it was very creative and I enjoyed it very much. I give you an A. I enjoyed the history of the trains add the different background on the trains you were running. Nice detail on the weathering of the cars. Please try to speak a little slower. Don't rush the descriptions of the scenery or the layout itself. I found it to be more interesting than just the average video. Storyline was very creative. Congrats on a great video and thank you for sharing this with all of us!
