Terrific layout; great attention to detail.

Great looking layout & video.

Excellent video and layout, thanks for the train ride !!!!!!

Great work, love all the railroad artifacts!  I have a question, where did you get the compressed buildings that are on the wall.  I have a section that I would like to fill with buildings like that.  Right now I am using evans design to print them out.  BUt I would like a 3d look.

Great Job and awesome Layout!!!!  Thanks for sharing

Really nice layout and video ,but hey, you had me at "Pennsylvania"!

The layout is 238 square feet.  The section along the wall is 4'x17 1/2', the back mountain section is 5'x11', the next wall section is 4'x9', and the city area is 8 1/2'x 9'.

 

 

The building on the right is a Ameritowne kit by OGR. It is the Homestead Furniture kit #443.  I cut the side walls to make it fit in the narrow space that I have.  The rest are Korber Models kits.  The two lighter color brick buildings are from the same kit, the Pickle Factory.  I just cut the side walls down to make two buildings from one.  There are two one-story buildings that came from another kit.  Did the same thing to that building.  Cut it up to make two building fronts.  The four story building is the Apartment Building kit.  It comes as is so there's no cutting needed to be done.  Korber is starting to make a few more kits like the Apartment Building to fill in spaces just like this.

PS. What camera did you use?

Wow! - that was fun to watch.  Beautiful work.

Excellent. A+ job!

 

Johnny

Well done , really enjoyed the ride

Alex,  the camera used is a Sony HXR-MC50U.  For the upper loop and the inner main loop, the camera was mounted to a skeleton log car.  For the outside main, the camera was mounted on top of a two-bay coal hopper.

Well done!

 

Peter

Wow, nice video, and great work on the layout!  I like the attention to details.

Johnny,

 

Thank You! I had always used either a Flip or a Sony Bloggie camera for the ‘from the train POV’ videos not realizing that I could use my much better Canon Vixia HFM40 camera. I looked up your camera (Really Nice!) and it made me realize that my Vixia will fit nicely on a flat car, and that is what I will use for my next video.

 

Thx!
