This channel shows my O Gauge model train layout consisting of a 13x6 foot main layout, a 4x10 yard, and a 4x10 loop below the yard. The yard allows up to 4 trains to be switched out on the main line during operation. 4 trains can run simultaneously. Pennsylvania, Erie Lackawanna, Lehigh Valley, and the BNSF family (railroads that have combined into it) are the main targets of my collection. The scenery is inspired by the Star Wars forest moon of Endor. I have loved trains since I was a little kid and I've always wanted to build a model railroad. I hope you enjoy the videos!

Thank you @ozarkmidlandsouthernrailway for kicking off this event! Boxcars are always fun to see! A special shoutout to the Mountain Lakes Train Station and the Shaw family for helping me realize a dream that I had since I was a child.

It's just amazing, no video or picture can truly do it justice, but I figure I'd post for those who love trains to enjoy!

I was waiting for you to do some uncoupling.Nice clear video
I should have done that - uncoupled and have the SD50 take off out of view. Thanks for suggestion definitely next time!
@ I do uncoupling y’all the time
Nice yard session Lou! I really like that B&O Caboose! 🚂👍
Thanks I got that caboose at a train show for a good deal it's very pretty. I also like that new SD50 with Chessie the cat on it! I'm going to run another session with the full layout on that one soon.
@@LousTrains1523 I just recently bought a whole bunch of K Line smoking cabooses. The level of detail is amazing. And not to mention, they are smoking cabooses. Thanks for the information Lou. I will definitely look for a B&O. I love that SD 50. I don’t have any of them in my collection as of yet.
@@TwistedMacGyversTrains A train store by me got an estate sale and lots of K-line cabooses for good deals. I think they have a C&O caboose I might check this weekend if I can. I've been trying not to get too many 'repeats' and this is my first SD50.
Same here, I’m really trying not to get and repeated cabooses unless they’re different. You definitely will not be disappointed. 👍
fun-ish
Very cool, nice layout.
Side by side and then under the bridge together makes for some top-shelf train action. Very nice!! Thanks for sharing! 🎄
@Dadified86 Thanks Mike!! I saw this challenge from Bill on your channel I'm glad I did!
Fantastic, Lou! Not one, but three awesome trains of box cars. Your layout looks great, and it was fun watching your trains of box cars run around it. Thank you so much for taking part in this year's challenge. Well done and I hope you had a good time! You can definitely say, "Bill B., I did it!" Bill
Thanks Bill I appreciate the kind words. It's great that you do these video challenges to stir up a love of trains amongst the model train community. I hope you have a great holiday season!
@@LousTrains1523 Thank you, Lou! This is all fun for me too. Bill
What an awesome submission for Bill B’s boxcar challenge. Another fantastic running session Lou!! 💯🎄
@TwistedMacGyversTrains Thanks Frank!!!
I am also a fan of the sound car. I would also recommend the Hobo Boxcar as well.
I enjoyed the Continuous running session.Love to see the Trains running,and seeing path of the Train and it’s root.
Looks fun.
Awesome paint scheme on that Berkshire, l I love it. 💯
Awesome an S2 Berkshire in the nickel plate road streamlined diesel paint scheme
Nothing better than getting that bell notification from Lou's Trains. Always a crowd pleaser for sure 👍👍 Thanks Lou!
Wow that lawn is well watered
@@OgaugeTrainsplusslotCars lol I might need to send out the landscapers :)
@@LousTrains1523You can easily connect that second level of fastrack to lower level.Connect two 036 switches on the ends of the top level.Bring them down a grade to bottom level fastrack.
More video of the Lackawanna Switcher.
It'll show up in an all Erie / Delaware Lackawanna diesel video coming up!
Fantastic running session Lou! Nice camera angles!
Thanks Frank, I could shoot videos of that Berk all day long lol. But I figured I'd mix in some random rolling stock I picked up recently.
Great idea! You definitely nailed it!
That’s a Nice Railroad System.I seen a UA-camr recording trains while you were filming
That's no surprise, this layout is so amazing it should be filmed every way possible!
@ I agree.I like the way you filmed the Trains without cutting the video,So we can see the performance of the trains on the layout.Some people cut up the video and don’t show the path of train,or where it’s going or coming from.like that UA-camr that was filming and almost drop his phone.It’s appears he didn’t want you filming him filming content from Hi Railers Club.Is that the Vice President
@OgaugeTrainsplusslotCars I try to film all my train videos as a single cut to show continuous action and in this one I tried my best to avoid people in the video. I asked a number of members if it was ok to film, even those in the booth up top, and they seems very enthusiastic about it and said go for it. This layout is a testament to hard work, effort and a love of trains of those club members!
Man that Train looks gorgeous.Runs like a Ross Royce
Beautiful locomotive
Waiting for mine to arrive! It’s a beautiful engine.
What a paint job. Striking.
Omg what is that whistle it’s so beautiful don’t think I’ve heard it before from Lionel
@thefuriousgamer2553 I've gotten quite a few engines in the last year and I don't think I've heard it before either, but I can't be certain it's not on another engine! It's amazing though which is why I went with it.
That's a Hancock 3 chime whistle. The same whistle 611 has
@joemalone6923 Nice thanks for the info!
@@LousTrains1523 You're welcome
Now that is one beautiful engine! That Blue 😀😍 definitely looks like such a great set to have
I agree I think this is one of the prettiest engines released this year! For me it's a toss up between this engine and that Halloween Triplex.
Say goodbye to this layout.
@MichealForrester2000 Unfortunately, but I'm sure they will rebuild!
Beautiful coverage! Now you got me drooling over this layout! You captured my buddy Corey1976! 😊
Amazing view Lou! I’ve seen that layout in person and it is very impressive. Nicely captured! 👍
Thank you it's a site to behold!
@@LousTrains1523This is very true!
Beautiful Locomotive Lou! I wish you much fun with it. 765 is waiting for me to pick her up. Gotta love Berkshires 👍👍 If I do not see you out here before then, Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
Thank you, it's so pretty and amazing detail. My other engines are jealous lol. Have a great Thanksgiving as well!
I wish there was a way we could know the production numbers.
I'm not sure I follow completely but the SKU for this one is 2431510. I've started to put these in the description.
@ I would like to know how many Lionel made. Lou, this is Greg
@gregleuze6657 lol I didn't realize. Yes it would be cool if they numbered them like that now I follow
Congratulations Lou! That 777 is gorgeous! I love it!!
@TwistedMacGyversTrains Yes thank you - I've seen a few of these and I liked this one the best!
I hope that there are passenger cars made for that engine.
@@LousTrains1523I exceeded my budget so I couldn’t order that one. I did order the Polar Express with every passenger car. That arrived today thanks to Mr Muffin! I’m pretty sure they’ll be coming out with matching passenger cars real soon. 👍
@@gregleuze6657 I’m pretty sure they will Greg. 👍
@TwistedMacGyversTrains This was not an easy call because it's the 20th anniversary for Polar Express and that's a big deal. I ended up getting an LC 2.0 Polar Express and it's solid. Too many options so much $$$.
Throwing out the smoke! Nice run session. 💯
Thanks John I love the smoke units and find that to be an awesome part of running these engines!
Thank you for this Lou! "TRAINtastic" is an understatement! My eyes went into overload and my coffee tasted 10X better. Absolutely incredible! I would need a tent and sleeping bag to take all of that in. Although I probably would not sleep LOL Thanks again for sharing such an amazing Hi Railer's Dreamworld 👍👍
Gorgeous layout, where did you get your grass?
Thank you! It's MAYSHINE Artificial Grass Door Mat listed on Amazon. It's not very good for its intended purpose as some of the grass flakes out a bit but it worked fairly well for my layout.
AWESOME PRR Action Lou! Loved every minute of it. As always, Thank YOU for sharing the fun! BTW First thing I do when I click on your videos is smash the like and then watch because I know it is always going be a great show 👍👍
Thank you and I love the PRR side of my collection - the GP9s just came out from Lionel and they look and sound great!
What a great running session Lou! I really enjoyed it! 😊
Thank you!
Beautiful tour of the layout Lou! Love all the passenger cars. They are my favorite.!😊
Passenger cars are awesome and look very cool when the room is darker!
@@LousTrains1523Most definitely! 👍
Thanks for the Tour Lou! Love your layout. Everything looks Amazing 👍👍
Thank you I appreciate it, it's a lot of fun putting one of these together!
@@LousTrains1523 I am with you 100%. HUGE Fun Factor!!
Just found your channel, awesome run session and sweet layout.
Thanks John, it's appreciated! I love watching all the videos of peoples layouts and their collections and am glad others can enjoy mine as well!
Good morning, Lou! Nice running session. I really like the BNSF set and the Amtrak! Have a great weekend! (Frank)
Thanks Frank! That BNSF train was put together from Lionel, Menards, and Industrial Rail and it all looks great as a semi-scale "set". It's one of my favorite to run, I just wish I had that Dash 8 as a LionChief 2.0 engine with some smoke but oh well.
Nice running session Lou.
Thank you very much appreciated!
Great Layout! I stick with Lionchief engines myself because I cannot afford the Legacy stuff and I dont know that I would know enough about it to use it properly. Maybe someday
The Legacy items are expensive but you can find great deals at train shows and those made in the last few years can be controlled by a Lionel universal bluetooth remote ($60 amazon). You can upgrade to a 72 watt power pack (also about $60 amazon) and it connects to the same track piece that your ready to run sets come with. With a single loop of fast track you should be able to get a 5x9 or 5x10 before you'd have worry about running wires and whatnot. However those are suggestions for the future - only get what you can afford and the most important part is that you enjoy the journey and running the trains!
@@LousTrains1523 thank you. That's very helpful 🙂
What a fantastic running session Lou! 👍😊
Thank you it is much appreciated!
Nothing better than a nice dose of O scale Eye Candy. Everything looks Outstanding Lou! Thanks for another GREAT video 👍👍
Awww, thanks - glad you enjoy!
Thanks for the video 😀
Beautiful, looking Big Boy! Beautiful consist, love those Tanks! 👍
I've been searching for a Big Boy for a while, i was so happy to find it with the set that comes with the tanks! Def need to pick up more of those.
@@LousTrains1523I missed that set because I have other items that I pre-ordered. Your Big Boy set is amazing Lou! 😊
I am so impressed with your layout and your running sessions Lou! Outstanding!! 💯❤😊
Fantastic Lou! 😊
Absolutely amazing! Great action Lou! 👍
Thanks 👍
Beautiful, looking locomotive! I love it Lou! 👍💯 (Frank)
Hi Lou, I just found your channel. I absolutely love how your layout looks. What a beautiful back ground. Would you mind if I order the same back ground for my layout. I would do a video giving you all of the credit and I would share your channel as well. Great running session! I will be following your channel. I also have subscribed to your channel. (Frank)👍
Thanks Frank! I wouldn't mind at all, in fact I would be happy if ideas from my layout could bring others joy! I can't paint that background because there's a large closet behind it, and I feel like using a Tapestry like this solves that problem plus it's something that isn't permanent.
@@LousTrains1523 Thank you Lou! Well then I will be doing it asap! I will give you a shoutout and do a video on it. I have the same issue, but mine is a window that I covered with foam. Have a great night and thank you again Lou! 😊
@@TwistedMacGyversTrains Sounds good. I subbed your channel as well and I think it'll look great on your layout (which is also very cool), you'll just have to find the right size!
Beautiful Locomotive (s) and really NICE layout Lou! Thank you for sharing the FUN! Subbed 👍
Thank you I'm glad others enjoy watching, I certainly enjoy watching others! The platform is listed as - Lionel O Gauge Model Train Station Platform Accessory. You can find on Amazon. I added some lights and people.
@@LousTrains1523 Thanks Lou! I appreciate the info!
