I got NKP 553 myself. I live south of a stretch of old NKP trackage, said stretch is between Lima(Lime-ah), and Saint Marys, Ohio. When ever I go to Lima, I cross it at a small lil' community called Hume. Got into the NKP because of a boxcar that was donated to the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society in August of last year. Said boxcar was a landmark of my lil' town.

Nice size layout. Didn’t realize how much trackage you had. I’ve got some ghosts in my train room as well I’m pretty sure. A fence gate swung open while I was working on the layout. Caught it on film and now I can’t find the video. Weird.

Great kitbash Rob! Look forward to the finished product. Paul B

The railroad tunnel and the bridge you talked about around the 12 minute mark is the famous keddie wye on the Union Pacific in California. If you could work that into your railroad, that would be spectacular. Keep up the great work. Thanks Bob

That is going to be so cool, can’t wait to see the construction

Took awhile to find this but you are moving right along. Thanks for sharing.

Nice start. I have to check out a box of unfinished projects. I think I have this exact kit started at home. Thanks for sharing.

There's just something familiar, when I watch your videos Rob! I am enjoying this kit bash! 👍

Cya next time

ok Rob me ol turkish robe wearing bean,,,,,we are going to have to leave a camera with microphone working through the night when you go to bed, & then the next day we will have to review it & see what we capture in the train room, Another great layout update mate =]

I know that’s the NCTM I’ve been there before

Wow ! Very cool !

Hot bag of ass- lmao… liposuction that ass and it’ll look sweet when it’s all done. Trouble shooting that short is the smallest stupidest little thing you’ll figure it out quickly. Paranormal I also wonder about that. Strange things.

Ray Brown is definitely talented, that kit bashed loco is something else. I follow him too. Keep up the good work. Here's a hint on tin foil rock molds, crumple up the foil pour in thin plaster let it start to set but still be pliable and stick it to your base wall forming it to the contours let it set up then remove the foil. Don't know if it works with sculpture mould, haven't tried that but it works great with plaster of paris. Just wet down the base so it doesn't suck all the moisture out of the plaster.

I’m a new viewer. The algorithm suggested your video to me that blew up recently. I’ve heard other creators make comments similar to yours about not understanding how the algorithm works. What I have heard successful creators say is that it’s all about the grind. Keep putting videos out on a regular basis and your channel will grow.

you doing some great work Rob...a GSB idea 😜area under the bridge...small pond with a hunting cabin, outhouse and dirt/gravel access road along with all the trees you mentioned...the other tunnel under there is a good idea...one of the lost screws could be causing a short somewhere now...don't recall if you have a personal name for your RR, if so, paint that diesel and decal it for your personal road...

Nice update and stories. Great rock work really ups the realism of a layout. There are so many products on the market to make this happen that there's no excuse. My favorite statement from this video is, "To live the dream you have to have the nightmare". I have to use that one. I used to make videos and be concerned about viewership. When it didn't do well it would discourage me. Now when I make them, I do it for my own enjoyment. Years down the road I will go back and watch my videos as entertainment and a testament to my accomplishments. If I get a positive comment or subscriber out of it, that's a bonus.

Great Video Rob! Model Railroading is a Learning curve anyway! Love your Videos I would make that C425 into a shortline for something different! Kevin

I use 1156 light bulbs for circuit breakers on the layout so if a train derails it shows me that there's a short. Every 12 ft would be a light bulb and I was wondering if your house was like an old funeral house?

Came upon your channel a few weeks ago. Nice job! As far as your spirit goes no worries! Be glad you don't walk into your train room and find a locomotive crashed onto the floor or something of that nature! Been thinking of starting up my own channel for my layout. Only thing holding me back is video editing process as me and computers don't get along well sometimes. Great work and keep em coming!

As usual, great video Rob! As you know, my layout is not too big, but I still have the occasional mornings when I have a short when I power it up. For me, it's usually because I laid some metal object on the track when I was done working the day before. I always loved the Pennsy RS11s, so if it was me I would paint and letter them PRR mid-1960s, with the small numbers. There are so many things that I want to say when I watch your videos, but by the time they are over I usually forget. One thing for sure, I believe that you do have the largest private layout in North Carolina. My buddy's layout is huge, but his room is only about 1000 square feet. 😊

In the foreground of the mine with 3 tracks is a depressed area in the foam. consider an abandoned rail line leading to the abandoned trestle in the cut where your pate girder bridge is installed. This would give credence to the new line and solve the, what the heck do I do with the depressed area at the layout's edge question.

The abandoned trestle idea is good. Consider moving it forward of the new plate girder bridge to suggest a route change to higher ground because the old line was washed out by a flash flood.

Largest model railroad s quite an accomplishment. I am now 77 and both my children have no interest in my modest 15 x 18 layout which I am told will become a cash cow when I am gone. You have quite a few collectables that perhaps you want to make known what you would like done with them when you are gone. No one likes to think about it but face it, you have a lot of hard work put into this and it should be preserved somehow. Tis is really amazing Rob.

nice video ty 4 the share check track that you not accidently set a pair plyers on the track some where * Happy Rails *

Years ago I read an article on how stratified rock was modeled with ceiling tile. I think that a straight edge was used to make a freehand break, and the tiles were stacked one on top of the other. That might work where the mine lead break is on the back side of the break. By the way…I totally enjoy your videos. Keep ‘em’ coming.😎

Yea man I missed a few videos and now your layout is huge. Right on keep makin vids.

Hello Rob & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Rob & Friends Randy

Great video and I hate shorts 🥵

Love the progress!

paranormal? In our home, a ghost would move small tools off my workbench and then bring them back later. I found a real old painting in the closet from the previous owner and since it was hung up, the paranormal activity stopped.

Fantasy locos? Hey, it's your railroad and if you want pink dinosaurs on the hill over the coal mine or fantasy locos - go for it.

Gears for C-3420's may be delayed since I believe the proprietor passed away and the company is going through a transition.

Restaured to being one with nature

Awesome video! I hope she’ll return to the mainline someday

I guess the army gives good pensions. Now days I see...My uncles were in Viet Nam and screwed them... Love this government... Specially what Biden and Harris did to our country... TRUMPS IN POWER ÑOW GET THE IMMIGRANTS OUTTT

The Bachmann definitely sounds better, but the BLI has better looks.

Perhaps your ghost put a hex on your Berkshire.

Looking Good Rob! Love those Wheeling engines.

You know after seeing your layout I don't believe I've ever seen culverts on a layout. Thanks for bringing them into my ideas list.

Good update

Nice update Rob! Thanks for the morning entertainment 😊

MERC 4-20's ae like catching a carp. You clean and filet the fish, then throw it away and eat the board. I had 3 of these and sold them and compared to my ATLAS versions, they are junk.

P.S. I use silicone adhesive to install all m can motors.

A NWSL or A-Line can motor can be a direct drop in with same diameter shafts for the ATLAS Geep you just painted. Chances are good you can use the same universals too.
