Absolutely great. I worked on the Northern Pacific as a boy, then in the 70's as a welder on Welding Crew #3 on the Burlington Northern. This layout reminds me of the Western Montana area, starting with picking up helpers west of Helena to push the load over Mullen Pass. Very enjoyable...thanks!

Tim's layout is one of my favorites. Wish he and craig would post more videos. Craig does a great job with the camera work

Love the BN switcher - I have never seen one like that before. BN has always been one of my favorites.

My apartment is about half the size as this layout. Worked my whole life to find out that model trains live better than I do! Thanks for sharing.

Dang this is one of the neatest things I've seen for model railroading.

Im from Northern Minnesota , that was Burlington Northern country for a long time. Excellent layout, it gives me hope for mine

this is as real as you can get to real life vintage railroading... im a big fan of the bn and love the realisim in the layout... *****

Very nice layout. I could only wish I had this one..Like the type of era displayed here. Great work guys..

Wow...first time I've seen this video. I had a small HO scale layout back in the late 50's early 60's but nothing like this one. So cool.

this is the most incredible layout i have EVER seen...excellent job!

By the by Matt, your scenery is so realistic, I can do all my rail fanning sitting here on my couch....

Awesome layout. Great to see so many people having a good time.

i could watch this all day very beautiful! 5 stars great job!!

that is probably the best train set i've seen, Brilliant!

I got sucked into model railroading with my hubby's garden railroad when I met him in HS. We've been into HO and G ever since. We model BN after his passion for living near the Chicago-Aurora Racetrack line. I grew up originally near KCS. But My passion has become BN aswell.

What a sweet looking layout. . Thanks for sharing.

Awesome is right. Awesome layout, the motive power, rolling stock, scenery, super-detailing, the list goes on.... best part is the people that make it all happen at each operating session. Thanks to layout owner Tim for sharing this masterpiece, and Craig for documenting / posting! Good times, no doubt.

What a great layout, love the grain train. Nice slow speed operation!!

Great work!!! I wish I could build something like that.... I had one before, not as beautiful as this one but I told myself that I will build another one when I retire from work and looking at this video makes me want to start building now. This is incredible... Gives me lots of ideas...

nice work on the ballast... it looked so real near the turn tables.... 2:40 what a great train...

Jaw dropping scenery, ballast and track work, beautifully weathered sound equipped units, realistic dispatching, locomotives performing as if they were hauling TONNAGE..............this is as sweet as western model railroading gets!

I want to commend you gentlemen on a job so well done I will be dreaming for weeks. Thanks for showing the spirit of "rail fanning" at its best!!

This just re-affirms this is the greatest hobby. Tim, just an amazing layout my friend.

This is probably one of the best operational layout I have seen in a while.

Totally totally and UTTERLY AWESOME! I am a model railroader and I am blown away by the excitement of this video!! I am knocked out about what a bunch of friends and associates can do! Arthur Burghardt Thank you for the experience!

I never thought I would miss old big green, its been months with out seeing ANY SD40-2 but at least there are still a few GP40s in green.

This is a work of great beauty. Thank u very much for sharing it here. And thanks to the people who clearly put in many, many hours of diligent work in creating the little world there, and for their generosity in sharing the sights and sounds of their labors.

Found this video while killing time on KZread. Impressive, even to a railroad worker like me! You guys really get in to this stuff! Nice work...

Burlington Northern had an incredible paint scheme. It's too bad that when the railroads combined to make BNSF, that this corporate scheme was not retained.

MAN! This layout is awesomeness! Tell those guys at that club that a youtuber said that their track is by far the best ive seen!

I'll agree. Some of the best footage along with one of the best model railroads... Should be in Model Railroader.

From an old retired ATSF Throttle Jerker, this a top notch layout, I love it. I saw the begining, now I know why Dispatchers have no hair, LOL. Enjoyed the video.

Awesome!!!What else can i say,now that's what a real model railroad looks like!Great job guys.

Incredible setup. I really love the realism! Great work.

Hi Folks,Wow what a layout and the sound of the engines are amazing.I love it. It's real,so you hear the turbo. Turn up my speakers!!! 5*****

We want a NEW movie of this fabulous layout !!! PLEASE !!!

Sir I tip my hat to you you and your team have the best HO track i have seen

Absolutely the best i've seen! i always had problems with my trains ceasing or stopping even though i had good connections w/ wires and a good dc transformer/ controller. I'll figure it out one of these days!

awesome layout and interaction by the train crew and dispatch.

Very cool. Working semaphores a nice touch. Playing trains on a grand layout. Good times

I am so thuroughly impressed and even more envious!!! BRAVO!

This layout is more impressive than anything you've ever accomplished in your life, thus far. This model railroad overshadows your negative comment. Goodbye. Also, my props to the people who created and run this layout. Awesome job.

amazing fellas!! this is just too gooood... always loved trains and model trains... this one made my day ... (Y)

Look at all of the VIP's! Paul Federiconi, Donnell. One beautiful layout Tom-D! Really liked the manned helper action...

Outstanding railroad, I can't wait to see more of this railroad.

wow!!! that is a modellers paradise!

This is just awesome! Great attention to detail on this layout.

That is the best freaking layout I have ever seen in my life!! I absolutely love the grain train!!! NICE STYLE!!!

Awesome work. BN is my favorite and this has the look and feel of it.

Very nice model train, beautiful scenery.

Absolutetly beautiful layout!

Great video. I love the Milwaukee RR locomotives. My dad worked for them for 25 years.

love the effort and details in this hobby great setup guys

Awesome and inspiring. Thank you very much

Amazing layout!!!! Beautiful work, so realistic sceneries

I'm very impressed by the work done on this layout. And what's more, although I work in N scale, you've still provided me with plenty of inspiration for my own model railroad project. Thank you.

Wow, love the signals, and the realistic slow, steady speed

Awesome video. Love Burlington Northern trains. Great job guys.

This is one sweet latout. Very detailed. The dcc sounds great to.

nice work guys,it looks like a real railroad

Beautiful layout. They have done some great modeling. And operations are very prototypical.

I like the casualness of this video. The reality gets awesome and then a giant head pops up - oh that's right it's a model. It is fun how you made use of the space and how the contrast between HO space and the basement is evident. OK so some will say this detracts from the realism and that may be true but it is an interesting ingredient to entertain.

Grreat video - great sounds. Thanks for sharing!

Awesome. When I get better at building layouts I wanna make a large one like this, only have be set in the early 90s.

bravo , nice layout , love curve testle, signal ,helpers and many more,.

Should mention, also, the excellent weathering, more evident on the later videos. And love to see that semaphore moving through its quadrant. Always interesting to see an overall view of a layout, and its underpinnings.

Incredible wish I had that must space in my basement - love it!

u can if its N scale

Wow, that is so cool :) I was part of a N-scale rail association, when i was 12-14, located in a safe room which i think had about 300 meters of tracks. Up until then i had used H0 but changed to N so i could run trains on the railway. Havent used/built or seen something like this in over 10 years, brings back memories. And H0 looks cooler to be honest.

One fantastic layout.

stunning! never has the saying "less is more" been true than as it goes for MR.

How refreshing to see a four engine lash up pulling more than five cars. Would love to see your operation in person .

This layout has come so far in 10 years in terms of decorating and details

Amazing layout. One of the best ive seen.

This is heaven

Awesome- enjoyed watching.

hello every body from North france thanks for beautyfull pictures you have a verrry nice layout.

I am so positively impressed with the design and realistic operation scenario that is coupled with the meaningful scenery and structures. Keep up the excellent work. Thank you for sharing this work of art. Hopefully, you will be able to post more videos.
