Just discovered your channel. You did the right thing in tearing out the old yard and replacing it. Nothing is more frustrating than bad track work, You did an excellent job too! You mentioned the improvement of Peco products over Atlas. When Atlas first introduced their n-scale track a lot of us tried it and I for one was disappointed, having the same problems you mentioned. The turnouts were also a disappointment. I then switched to Micro Engineering. The flex track is great, but I had the same problem with the turnouts, the locos would stall because there wasn't consistent power through the turnout. I made improvements to both products, but they still had problems. I was about ready to forget n-scale when I discovered Fast Tracks. I gradually replaced most of the turnouts. My locos run flawlessly through the Fast Track turnouts. I know most modelers are afraid to make their own, but if you have basic modeling skills they're relatively easy to make after some practice. They are another option. I mentioned this because people that are new to the hobby should do some research into what track to purchase. Get the best track you can afford, and if your don't like it or you want to improve it, follow Kory's example and replace it. You won't regret it.

Layout looks fantastic. The track work in the yard looks amazing. Thanks for sharing. Dave

Another great update Kory.. I'm always amazed how you will completely dive in an tear something out and re do what ever it is that is not quite working out to your level of expectation. Most people including myself sometimes will limp along and make do.. not you.. if its not right..rip it out and fix it. That determination is a real boost to --don't settle... fix it !

Very beautiful nature! Thank you for your video! Best regards from France

Welcome back Kory. We missed your updates! I'm sure you've been busy. Excellent forward thinking for a larger space.

That freight yard looks awesome.

Welcome back! Layout is looking great! Truly inspiring. Thanks for the update...

I knew having notifications on would benefit me sometime soon. Awesome video man! Loving the layout!!

That yard looks absolutely amazing Kory. Good to have you back and feeling better.

Welcome back and I’m glad your feeling better buddy and can’t wait to see more of your scenery videos and what else you do on your layout

Looking great Kory, like the way the yard turned out. It will add a lot to the layout. Glad your feeling better. Thanks for sharing. Ken

Welcome back bro, we missed ya! Glad your feeling better... I know it was a pain in the @#! But love the upgrade to your yard! Love that signal bridge man! Gah, layout is just AWESOME looking! - Gary

I like the improvements Kory,it looks really good.I hope sometime down the line,you setup the rest of those switches on tortoise slo-mo switch machines also. I love the Rail-Logic block/rail crossing signals too,very prototypical. That's going to be a top-notch layout when it's finally done.

Great improvement! The backdrop came out just beautiful. I know the feeling about those hairlike strands, they are insanely hard to work with. Lookin forward to the next update.

Hey Kory....sorry to hear about you being sick 🤒 😷 and thankful you’ve recovered. The yard area looks great and hopefully you blueprinted that wiring 😊. Something I still have to do. Anthony

Great update and ducks you have been sick. Man your yard looks really good. As always your kayout looks awesome. The signal bridge looks awesome just got a kit so woll be getting into it soon. Look forward to your next update. Cheers Darren

Thank you for showing us your video of the layout it’s awesome!

kory your layout is looking goooooood !!! you have done it right track work is the hardest besides wiring but you did a good job on both of them. when your track work is perfect you will have so much more fun with your layout and you dont have to worry about derailments. you are a young man so get to feeling better and keep on building you are doing a fine job of it. jim

I just watched one of your older videos with the Atlas switch machines in the yard. The change to Peco is a vast improvement in looks. Keep on having fun!

Hey Kory. The layout is looking great. Great work and excellent progress. You're showing people that even with tight spaces one can have a layout.. Keep the videos coming. :-)

Great update Kory. Yard and layout look fantastic. Always look forward to your update vids

Glad you are good now, working upside down is fun aint it, was an auto tech for long time and had to do wiring under the dash's of cars, and overhead when car was on the rack. I'm starting new layout in modular form so I can stand it up and do wiring. But I'm old and portly and need a fork lift to get back up lol. Your layout looks good , great changes. Luv that Mc d's. God Bless Ya Dave

I am doing the same with the HON30 portion of my HO layout. I am using Peco N scale turnouts with no switch machines. The improvements you have made look really good. Nice work and thanks for sharing.

Hi ya Kory, very nice to a KRP video drop. Wow! The yard looks great. Lots of time spent on that. Off topic a little. A young man such as yourself shouldn’t be sick for 3 weeks. My philosophy is If I come down with something and it hangs around more than a few days, it’s time for a visit to the doctor. I’m not a big advocate for antibiotics, due to their overuse, but sometimes that’s what it takes. You got to take care of yourself dude! Sorry, I went on a parent/grandparent rant. Anyways the layout is coming along nicely. And I look forward to future updates. See ya.

Great job on redoing the yard Cory, keep up the awesome work bro

Welcome back , I was looking to see how the yard came out. Everything looks good and working well I see. I have a bunch of tortoise motors myself I am wiring up. I used 8 different colors of wire which gives me 64 color codes if I need them. This way each motor has its own color for ease wiring to the control panel on barrier strips . Anyway nice update and a lot of those atlas turnouts are junk...I know!

Looks amazing, massive improvement from before and a great vid as always. Keep up the good work. Kind regards Dan

Looks nice things are really starting to take shape on your layout out.

great update Kory..you're making awesome progress...lots of wiring going on...looking forward to the next update...,thx for sharing.. vinny

Great update Kory,hope to see more soon

very nice, looks like it was a great idea to change the yard up

Missed you Kory. Trust me I know how you feel. Good to see you again. Love the improvement

Yard looks really nice. Mike

Man you do a great job bro. Thank you

Looking good man !

Looking great Nice work

Nice signal bridge! looking good!!

Hey Kory I agree with the others Signal bridge looks great... so good I gotta get out my Espee books to compare if a worthy candidate for that temp bridge sitting on my layout. Layout sure got a make over and is lookin fine there bro!

Hey Kory, I always look forward to your videos watching your progress on your layout! Inspires me to work on mine. Mike

I am amazed by your work ethic, attention to detail, and creativity. You are incredible. I wish I had one-tenth of your talent, skills, and patience. I am glad you are feeling better. We are neighbors in the San Fernando Valley so I really look forward to your videos. What hobby stores do you buy things from or are you just an online guy? I need to find a good shop in the area.

Awesome layout!!!

Very nice update. Love the signal bridge, that is something that holds me back, wiring!, The back and neck have been operated on, so to bend under a layout isn't fun. Glad you are feeling better, I had it and it lasts 3 weeks or more. Be safe and look forward to more videos when you get to em. Thanks.

Depending on your scale and size of the layout segment involved hinge the segment to lift up like an auto's hood and sit/stand working on the wiring. To make sure all track stays in alinement use "The Gap Master" from www.americantieandtimber.com/index.html

Love that signal bridge. Very nice detail for n scale.

that's quite a yard. well done.

Great video, Kory. Glad you are feeling better. One question please? How do you join Atlas and Peco track? Thank you.

I see some Summit Custom Cut. Great products!!

Looks great 👍

nice rework of the yard area, and yes work ng switches band block lighting is a pain.

Very, very nice!

Signal bridge looks great

Nice track, greet from Germany

Nice work

Nice revision to the layout. Yard looks really good and flows nicely. Overall look and feel is good. I think, if I had to start over, I would do code 80 with Peco Electrofrog switches. Code 80 just seems much less fussy than Code 55.

You may want to make your wiring neater, so you can trace a problem in the future. Label too would be helpful. But you have done a GREAT job with the track work. RrL Jenkins

Wow. If you make another Signal bridge in the future? Do a video of that so we can all see how you made this one. Thanks for sharing.

At least you're getting something accomplished. My layout is still in storage.

Love it

Peco makes very solid stuff

Hey man great job on the redo. Question for you (or anyone who reads this and knows) where did you get the N Scale military vehicles from? Thanks in advance.

Thanks! Those are from Micro Trains, the come in a kit you have to assemble

Awesome work Kory m, glad your better. I have been sick myself with the flu...keep up the great work. Where did you get that N scale signal bridge? Looks good..check my layout out when you have time...Gary...kcs u/p n scale...

Next time run the trains cool layout bro

Looks nice and why not just extend the main lines and return loop of n closet unless you would need to cut hole in wall to do that

Never enough yard space

I wish I could build a layout like yours I all I do is collect n scale model locomotives and cars and I just started, I used to collect ho scale models I think you can do more with n scale trains.

Your wiring looks like just like mine

Do you need to isolate the peco insulfrog turnouts?
