My brother Doug's 2-rail O-scale layout. Mainly, LV, CNJ, and Lehigh, Hudson River.

very nice!
4 powered units together? I'm impressed.
Yep, all powered, Atlas engines.
Please show more videos of a great railroad...CNJ
CNJ Forever.

Sure would like to see more. That coal drag brought back lots of memories.
Echoing the posts by Walter & NECRAILS above, please share more videos and photos!
That is really neat! 👍🏼
The Atlas SD35’s are good pullers.
Great railroads to model! RDG, CNJ, LV, LNE, L&HR are among the best of the best. I know people tend to gravitate towards their regional railroads, but this was my region; growing up at a time when these and other local roads put on an unforgettable daily show.
The only thing that would make this better, is to have Mike Bednar narrate it ;-)
Nice.
Nice. This is in Miami? What part of the house is the train room? Kind of looks like a basement but if it's South Florida I would say I'm probably wrong about that.
Layout’s in a 2 car garage.

Will shoot a few more vids out.
Very, very nice. Love the CNJ train especially. A little out of the CNJ era I model, but still wonderful to see. How large is the layout?
Well done! Is that a representation of Bethlehem Steel?

Yes it is, still a work in progress.
The Anthracite Railroads … love it! I wish I was your brother's neighbor.
Look forward to seeing/learning more.

Very nice layabout and weathering. Lucky guy. I couldn’t get my wife to agree on giving up the garage, so all I have is one room up here in Broward.

You can upload longer videos to youtube, or similar sites, and post the link.
Loaded up a larger Vid on my YouTube site. Consists of a LV northern Wyoming class, and 2 pacifics.

Very nice! The Lehigh looks great.
That Jim Thorpe Lehigh Gorge view is fantastic!
VERY cool!! Bethlehem Steel, Jim Thorpe, Anthracite Roads, 2-Rail … this is the big layout I always wanted, but will never have.
Kudos to the builders of this layout. I would like to learn more details about it.
(I'm getting two CNJ GPs from 3rd Rail, to go with my large fleet of Atlas CNJ and Lackawanna hoppers. I would so love to run it on your brother's layout. Seriously. lol)

Nothing funnier than hearing Mike on the LNE Catty video talking about the crew stopping for lunch “at a little hotel called Hunky Pete’s - they made good holupkies and pierogies”
I look forward to more videos of this layout!

Heard a many a one of his narrations! When he speaks there is no doubt who it is!
