First of all, I would like to thank Alex for hosting a last minute visit while visiting family in Staten Island, especially during a holiday weekend

 

Second, words cannot describe the layout. Upon entering his basement, I was in awe of his train room. The amount of action and animation is mind boggling. I'll let the pics do the talking

 

P.S., Those of you attending his openhouse will be amazed by his detailing, creativity and scratch\kitbashing skills!!!!

It must be really satisfying to have a vision for a scene on ones layout and be able to build any structures and/or details needed to create that vision. I like many others commend Alex and all the others in our OGR community that posses these skills and am glad they choose to share them with others!

First I want to say, Cesar is a great guy and a total asset to this forum. He knows so much about this hobby, I was truly amazed. He brought his dad along, and he also is a great guy. I also find out his dad lives five minutes from me, what a small world. Two of the nicest people I ever met.

 

       We had a nice day running and talking train's. So a big thank you to Cesar and his wonderful dad.

 

       A big thank you to Jim, Strogey, and John for the very kind word's.I appreciate it very much.  

 

     Thanks, Alex

Cesar,

I can certainly agree with you. Alex has a great layout. I was in the phone with him right after you left, and I can tell you he said it was great to meet you and your father. He also said he had a great time.

I've been there a few times running trains and we always had a blast.
I promise Alex I'm trying to get back there. (I know he doesn't believe me.)

Glad you and your father had a good time Cesar. Alex is a great host and a very good modeler to say the least.

I really appreciate you taking the time to post the pictures.

Thanks,
Mike R
