Its been quite a while since I've posted on the forum or on YouTube but here is my latest video installment. Added a few new items recently that I picked up from Stockyard Express, Uncle Ray's Trains, and of course Ebay. I hope you all enjoy.

Very nice video! Thank you for posting! It is always nice to see what's new.
That is one very nice layout! Your videos are always well done.
What is the size of the layout? Can you post the track plan? To be honest, it looks like a very well designed plan.
Thanks for posting!
Nice video and lay-out. Nice to see long trains on a good size lay-out. How big is the lay-out. Is it in a room of it's own? Or a basement?
Thanks for sharing!
Nice video and an interesting layout. Thank you!
Busy layout. Excellent detailing and I appreciate your investment in rolling stock. Cool consists!!!
Great video of the layout and the train action. Nice choices on rolling stock and engines. What is the size of your layout. That NS road railer train looked fantastic...............Paul
Jason, your video is very well done. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it.
The layout is 21 by 8 feet.
I do have a track plan drawn up that I can post later today once I'm home. I love the design but I could have used another foot on the length and about a half foot on the width. It is built in a basement.
The majority of my locomotives are MTH but I do have a few conventional Lionel locos and should be picking up my first Legacy engine this year.
Glad I'm able to share the layout with all of you.
Very nice video and layout. I have never seen a caboose on the end of a passenger train before. Interesting.

Chugman, I don't suppose its common but I had that PRR heritage caboose and it just looked so darn good haha.
And Bingo Player, no plans to add a subway. Perhaps on the next layout I build.
You sure have done a great job packing a lot into the 21x8 foot layout space. The setup you have works well in giving a larger feeling to the scene. Blocking the view of the trains does a nice job of that. Keep those videos coming!
Jason,
I enjoyed the video and a chance to experience your layout. You mentioned earlier that you had a drawing and would post it here...look forward to seeing it.
Thanks
They aren't the fanciest sketches but it at least clearly shows the layout plan.
Jason,
Thats a lot more track than I thought you had. I like the fact you have connecting routes between levels. That is a throwback to my HO days, when most folks with multiple levels connected them. However, for those who like multiple unconnected levels, that is fine too. That saves on extra switches, and it is easy to run multiple trains. My motto is enjoy this hobby any way you like within the budget, time, and space constraints you are dealt.
Well done!
Peter
