  • Janet, Dan and Jason visit Dave Abeles's HO scale Conrail Onondaga Cutoff layout in New Jersey. Dan and Jason then use the LRC shuttlecraft to make a surprise visit to Tony Koester's Nickel Plate St. Louis Division Third Sub layout.
    Because nobody can spell Onondaga (including us), you can read more about Dave's layout here: onondagacutoff...

    Great looking layout Dave, thank you for the tour. Plus a super hilarious video, thanks for sharing it Jason, Janet and Dan. And WOW, just WOW, Janet is scoring some real points with all the New York Central, Conrail and Reading knowledge, you go Janet 👍 Cheers, Rich S.

    I also love Dash 8's! In fact the Rapido Draper Taper (that apparently some people complained about the lack of details on...) one is my first Rapido locomotive and is one of my best running HO locomotives, even on plain DC! I would not be opposed to another run of them though if it ever happened. :D

    Fun video! I hadn't seen it before. And, one point of correction for Dave Abeles (which may have already been commented on elsewhere, sorry if I'm repeating) - the DeWitt Diesel house was not built by Penn Central but by New York Central - my Dad and uncles worked there. In fact, the fueling station you simulated in your layout is where my Dad worked his final several years before retirement under PC. I do love seeing your layout, Dave, because of the images of my home town area. Cheers! And thanks for a good, fun video!

Illinois Railway Museum just acquired #18, although it will be returned to original TP&W livery. In any event...well done on the video!

Janet will have to drive herself home mind you . will be hard enough telling my Wife i am only going out to talk trains.
