Layout tour of American Flyer 16 ft dog bone S gauge 10 30 2021

I like the house with the green roof and big porch! Nice layout.

[@willamettevalleyAFtrains]

Thank you. The house is a reproduction of the Mini-craft hotel American Flyer sold in the 1950's. It works out well as a large farm house.

Very slick. I dig the Erector Set arch bridge. I miss all that. Love AF!

[@willamettevalleyAFtrains]

Thank you, and thanks for watching.

Nice layout closeup tour! I've driven by Big Cliff dam many times myself. The erector set bridge is a nice touch too. Thanks for posting all your AF videos.

I noticed that you sacrificed some pieces from a Gilbert Erector Set to build that bridge in front of the dam. Where is the rest of that erector set?

[@willamettevalleyAFtrains]

I built the trestle from miscellaneous parts picked up at an antique store. I did not have a set to start with.

[@pforce9]

@@willamettevalleyAFtrains Durn, I wanted dibs on the rest of that set. My younger brother got one of those erector sets in about 1957 or 58. I got the big foldout chemistry set. Among other chemicals, my set has Saltpeter, powdered charcoal and powdered Sulphur among other things. Good job on that bridge!

Nice layout!

[@willamettevalleyAFtrains]

Thank you

[@bradhamrick9197]

Can you run American flyer right next to a light or an old scale train set

[@willamettevalleyAFtrains]

I do not have any of the smaller Lionel or MTH train sets. The large prewar Lionel that I have will not go around the curves on my O gauge loop.

[@bradhamrick9197]

Can you can you put Lionel right next to a American flyer running at same time
