Another fine job for the M3R. 🚂 Love the metal toy soldiers, I collect them myself. Merry Christmas 🎄
Your club provided a great train layout at LL Bean. Well done ! 👍👍👍
Thanks. M3R is very glad you enjoyed it.
@maine3railers964 You're very welcome. I'm a trainman myself from Saco...O gauge. 👍
Nice setup for a small space. Well laid out. Pretty building.
Very ice
It looks well
You guys did well
Nice
Filled with lots of objects but I didn't think it had excitement. Didn't see many people or residents standing and enjoying it.
We aren't allowed to have residents in our pictures.
Dang, I missed it. Any more shows in the near future in/around Maine?
How Many Shows You Go To?
20+ portable layouts each year. The layouts are all different .
A Good Way to Start model Railroading.
You guys allowed me to use the trains
I was there
Beautiful, very large, well thought out design. There can be a lot of people looking at this w/o being too crowded. Sure would be nice if the Fair supplied the tables.
Noice
how do i retrieve my discord login token?
Very nice guys.
Didn't feel as though the layout was thought out very well. 24" gap with wires showing was not attractive.
We understand, but sometimes this cannot be helped. We had less than 2 hours to move all our stuff into the library elevator, and set the layout up. I'm glad that you care enough to comment and we really appreciate your support.
Another cool O Gauge display layout. 💯
Another thumbs up to a great crew.
Nice to see so many different clubs.
Good to see G scale. Not everything was scale but it was for kids and that is all that mattered. NICE!
You. are so correct. Thanks for watching.
Nice video!
Thank you.
Maine Central is nice looking train. Some nice buildings and nice layout.
Awesome set up and run session video!
Very cool tour, thanks!
Scavenger hunt: which person not facing the onlookers has one eye shut? Honestly, looked good. Where were all the people?
The room was crowded much of the time. We try and not get kids faces in the videos unless we have permission.
You gentlemen are the best in train layout entertainment. Much enjoyed and appreciated. 👍👍👍
Nice setup. When I first saw the location I thought of Patten, ME until I read the description.
This club and your setups are terrific and well appreciated. Thank You 👍👍👍
What a wonderful train program!!
Very nice.
Very cool, thanks!
very nice thx for sharing.😊😊👍👍
Nice job guys! Its a lot of work, I hope it was appreciated.
It was very much appreciated!!!
As the elderly have plenty of time to sit and watch, not sure why the trains were running as fast as they were.
One of our junior members is a speed demon. The camera also adds speed.
Congratulations it looks amazing! Love it! 👍👏👀🚂💯❤️
Liked seeing the young participation and the sale of trains as well.
Was the music playing at the village!!!!!!!!!! Would've liked to see more residents but maybe that wasn't allowed??
No, the music was from iMusic. It might have been fun to have the song playing in the background however. The resident that does appear in the video is a member of the Maine 3 Railers. In general, these communities request that we don't photograph the residents.
Always appreciate your videos. Love the children....who said this hobby is fading away !!! 👍
"promosm"
Terrific job....as always !
Thank you.
Another lovely day in Plasticville.
A lot in a small area!!
WOW! Fantastic job on the video. Thank you.
You guys always put up a great display....it's enjoyable to view. Your hard work and patience is appreciated. What model types are the two MEC diesels in this film ? Thank You 👍
Let me know when you're in Aroostook.
I really enjoy your videos. Grew up with HO, switched to N scale, now I'm a die hard 3-railer. I have been using the folding tables for months due to small space, and your simple floating bridge designs have inspired me and allow for a bigger layout. Just built two bridges both allowing for double track - about a 25" gap between tables. Keep up the great work!
Glad you enjoy our videos and have found them helpful.
Loved the way you combined the music with the video. Nice work.
Thank you.
Minimal landscaping but the buildings are really good. Would have been nice to have setup dimensions.
We just can't bring much more "stuff"in our vehicles. Usually we have only a couple of hours to set up the layout. Each layout uses essentially the same stuff, but in a different form. Each layout is different. We do have a small mountain with a tunnel through it which we use sometimes. The trees help also. The layout was 11 feet x 15.5 feet.
Great to see these displayed and run. In order to keep going you will need to find some dedicated young blood.
For sure, that is why we do this. We hope to get some younger people interested in our hobby. We do have a handful of "junior members."
