I always enjoy watching, and re-watching in many cases, these videos. In one of these video clips you mention the arrow switch stands. Who makes them?

Wow!! I just came across this video after watching your latest ones. Talk about before and after! Awesome job!

Excellent work!

The SDL39's operate great and sound really good. Nice job with the video, John. I like the fact that the Beer Line is utilizing various locomotives ...... makes for some excellent switching videos. Thank you and Merry Christmas! Mike

In the 60’s and 70’s Milwaukee Rd brought every type of power to Councils Bluffs Iowa. Run whatever you want. I enjoy this layout.

Those fake electronic bells the Milwaukee and Soo Line had for a time.

It's your railroad, run whatever makes you happy, or us happy. 😀😀 Have a Merry Christmas!

Not entirely impossible, I guess. They were seldom seen in the area though. The older GP's in your last vid would have been seen intermingled with covered wagons & could have run south of Humboldt Yard. Hope you have a Merry Christmas!

I did enjoy watching your video with hot cup of coffee this morning. You have very nice scenery, and the weathering looks good. Thanks for posting.

Love those locomotives! Good job weathering them,

Q: Foe whom the bell tolls? A: Beer.

I do love watching your videos and am only just getting to this one now. Genuinely would love a layout like this. Would be perfect for my small and rather restricted space and would provide years of enjoyment

Really enjoyed this series, John! Thanks!

a wonderful thing to see

The site and sound of a couple of Geeps doing what they were built for on such a great layout is the Coolest thing to a model railroader!At least in my opinion. Very well done video 👍😎🚂🇺🇸

what track do you use?

Great video series. Inspirational. More to come soon l hope!

Are those esu chips? And are you using a PT? The locos sound great! I personally went down the ESU/PT rabbit hole on my n scale fleet. Keep up the awesome work!

Great lay out 😊😊😊

The excellent eye for detail and scenery on this layout is also translated in the sound. The locomotives sound real, the illusion of weight and horsepower are what make this layout absolutely enjoyable to watch and no doubt operate as well.

Always great to see the units go through their paces as they move around some classic old boxcars and refrigerators. I always remember the long track closest to 3rd Street would get 40 ft boxcars for loading the spent grain from Pabst are there sure were a lot of Fallen Flags right up until the end of rail service. I do remember one other use for some of the small Milwaukee Road cars is that the shops here in the late 70s converted some to MOW bunk cars and possibly kitchen or bathroom cars. They were painted an oxide brown and I doubt if more than 12 were converted. While the SOO would have gotten them in the merger I doubt if any made it to theCP era

I just can't say enough about those Geeps John

Those Geeps are fabulous! Thanks for another fun Ops video!

Great video, John. The 567 prime movers in the geeps sound excellent. Thanks for another enjoyable switching session. Mike

Love your layout and that sound and the scenery is just wonderful!

Tsunami sound ?

Love the detailing and weathering on your rolling stock. Okay, and on everything else! I’ll be getting a Milwaukee GP40 soon and I think I will follow your approach with the weathering. Thanks for posting…great job.

Awesome John

Road construction scene is a nice touch

Amazing

Nice video. What sound is in the F-M units?

Geeps sound great

Great action & fine models, John. Your videography is superb as well

Flawless speed and the sound simply doesn't get any better than this.

Those Geeps look good running around your layout!

I got lost for a minute. Forgot I was watching a model. Thank you!

Good work.

Is that Soundtraxx sound? Sounds great

Nice job John.

I´m very happy I invested the 30mins to watch your video 🙂Great operations, great locos with amazing sound and beautiful details to be found on your layout!

The number boards on the side of the locomotive are interesting. Unique to the MR?

Great scene. What time era are you modeling?

fantastic video and layout

A nice selection of cars to be switched and that was a flashback when I first saw the multi-mark CP scheme on the newsprint cars. Far and away that is the most realistic sounding GP9 I've heard. Even though it usually was F units I do remember a few GP9s making a quick turn if they were short on power. Good old 316 that unit was a regular on both the local going up to Plymouth and also on the trains to Green Bay as I worked trackside just north of Canco. Great video!

Nice, John. The GP9's look and sound great. Excellent job on the spark arrestors. Thanks! Mike

The sound alone is worth the price of admission. I love the near flawless speed control. Proof that a layout doesn't have to be huge to be enjoyable.

This takes me back, for different reasons. I was always on Schlitz patrol when I was a teenager. Sometimes my dad would "forget" how many beers he had left in the fridge. 😀

Great looking equipment and smooth running. Scenery is superb. Well done 😎🚂🇺🇸

I really enjoyed the Tour! Do you have a schematic of the layout? The city details look great!

Love the Milwaukee Road. Nice layout. I really like the weathering on the locos and rolling stock. All the track side details. Great job, is a joy to look at.
