HO Trainwatching at Waycross Jct , TX - Part 1
A morning of HO scale trainwatching at Waycross Jct., Texas. Waycross is a fictional Texas city on Per Laursen's modern Union Pacific layout set in South-central Texas.
Watch mainline trains, a local switch job and Amtrak come through town in this first part of a series.

When your layout is so good even the thumbnail looks like the real thing
If I could, I would totally give this video a million likes. Love the layout and I can't wait for part 2. PS the layout looks very good.
Very nice indeed. It looks nearly like the real thing. Such a great job on the recreation of the junction area.
Your layout is the blueprint for a modern HO scale layout. I was going for 70’s era until I saw your videos. I’m working on a modern northwest Indiana layout, but I have a long way to go to come close to your layout. Nicely done sir.
Love part 1. Looking forward to part 2!
Look forward to part 2.
So great to see a new video of your amazing layout. Fantastic action! Can't wait for part 2.
Great to see a new video from Summit, one of my favorite layouts on YT.

Sweet setup! Great video!!
As a railfan as well as a modeler I always find your videos delightful.
I can watch this the whole day... 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Beautiful layout, with many realistic details and excellent rolling stock. Congratulations and I look forward to Part 2. The filming, perfect. Thank you. Best regards.
As always, one of the few layouts I can consider legitimate.

Wow! Per you nailed it again! I really like the local switch. Also, that Denny’s looks magnificent! Really hope to see that as a future release on the site.
Fantastic video, please make more !
I’m so ready for part 2
All the detail is amazing. I was so blown away by the weathering detail on the rolling stock. Like a real train the locomotives may have differing faded paint. Then several graffiti cars, a couple new paint, and very rusty car really added so much realism.
I never thought I would see Taco Bell in ho scale
Hey Per! Just found this today in August 2022. Almost as good as being there!!! Great layout and very fine video!!!!
That was NICE, THAT TRAIN AT 21:01 WITH THEN SUPER LONG EXCESS HIEGHT BOXCARS, ARE SUPER NICE LOOKN!!!👌👍🤠✌️ 😉
The dominos, the lowes, the super 8 motel, the little house on the hill behind dominos, the Shell station. Oh and then theres the trains...lol. I love it. (I imagine one day the automobiles will roll along like the trains and have actual "traffic")

I love this layout just wish ya had smithville with the car maintenance fleet shop. Would’ve been super cool to see. I feel like your layout does a fantastic job at what modern day railroads in central Texas look like
21:03 Nice looking NS model for 8101.
Nice to see you back
I agree with amtrak tbl
I love it
Mmmm Denny’s
Great layout
Perhaps a dodx train next time.?? Moving equipment to Ft.Hood. 😃😄😀 love the video. Awesome layout!!
Hello I was wondering if anyone had cv values for speed matching my locomotives…I’ve been struggling for quite awhile and can’t figure it out any help would be appreciated
Per, how did you fare after Hurricane Laura. I live over the I-10 bridge in Sulphur, La.

I lost 1/3 of the shingles on my roof which lead to some water damage on the 2nd floor (where the train room is). Other than that I had no structural damage. The ceiling in the train room is plywood so it did not cave in from getting wet. The laminate floor got some damage but after it dried out it does not look so bad. For some strange reason and luck, the water only dripped in the walkways. No water on the layout at all!! I was extremely lucky compared to the vast devastation in the neighborhoods around me.
I don't know if you can see it in this video but where did you get the red and white radio tower?

I found it at a Train Show in Houston 6-8 years ago. It was a Mexican guy that had a company in Mexico who made them ready to install. Thay had a website but is has been closed for several years
Curious, are you a Danish or American guy, or something in between? Anyhow, a very intresting and vivid layout, the american spirit and energy is all over!. Greetings from Sweden!
