- I do want to start of by apologizing for the short videos this last couple weeks. I've just been thinking on the layout plan like crazy and now I finally have come to a conclusion on what I'm doing. It wont be as prototypical but thats okay. Back to normal longer episodes next week!

I am a freelancer myself, to me it makes it more fun, not having to worry about the details so much. Looking good!
Very true 😁 Thank you!
No apologies ... I like the shots just as well ... keeps us updated with you, friend
I appreciate that very much 😁
The continuing battle: what you want vs what space you have vs what you can afford. 😞
Glad to see you’re making progress. Love the videos.
Yes, something we all must face haha
Best advice I got when starting my layout this past winter was “it’s YOUR layout” make it how you want and can afford. Your craftsmanship is really good and if your anything like me the job of building and planing the layout is as much fun as running the trains. Love the videos and keep up the great work!
Thanks for the kind words! I think the same, this is all part of the fun
I think this guy said it best. And yes, your craftsmanship is top-notch, dude!
Another idea is put storage tanks at that warehouse and use it as a food processor. 2 boxcars, 1 corn syrup tank and 1 hopper all in one industry. Will make an interesting scene when you dont have to switch all the cars at once
I like that very much. I may have to think of some real companies that I can put at that industry for that

Great plans. That is a nice looking building. It is pricey but would look great. Nice update and thanks for sharing. Dave
Thanks Dave! 😁
A little behind in videos but I do like the change to freelance…opens up a lot of options you choose and not stuck with a set plan…the change will give you a nice future diesel facility
I agree I like the new track plan👍
Thanks man
Good luck with you proyect.
HO scale layout.
With the amount of space you have to work with, it's completely understandable that you would have to take "artistic license" and have the lay out be "inspired" by the prototype. Still, you're packing a lot into a small area. You'll be running all kinds of operations! You would be a valuable member to any MRR club. 😉👍😸🚂
Thanks man that means a lot :)
I agree with the others about relaxing adherence to the prototype. I opted for a little less realism (in terms of placement of things) but am happy I did. Also, don't make things too flat. Even Kansas has some hills.
I’m glad you agree. Sometimes we have to adapt and that’s all apart of the fun! Also yes good reminder, I’ll be sure to add some dimension to the landscape
Sounds like a plan. I look forward to see how this plays out. Keep it up!
It is usually a good idea to complete your track plan on paper or something ahead of actually building it that way you don't go back and have to tear up stuff you built multiple times like you've been doing.
True, that would be far more convenient but nothings been too difficult to change luckily and I’m still having fun haha
Great video mate. I think a mix of both freelance and prototypical is a good idea as It will make for some intresting scenes for the layout. Looking forward to seeing the diesel depot area. - Nicholas.
Thanks Nicholas! 😁
Very cool cep up good work friends on BNSF Railroad layout friends
I love you vids
Thank you so much!
Super cool idea for the warehouse! Was really hoping you'd do something awesome with that "stretch of track that runs into oblivion" 😂 Can't wait for you to get those crossings working! You should definitely add some of those larger crossings too for a large road crossing.
Yea
Thanks man 😂 I know though I just want to see some lights goin haha

Great video TR and definitely do your layout like you want it! How you've layed everything out looks great and to have it accommodate how you want to run your operations of switching etc. That building looks great next the track. The more I look at yours makes me want to do a layout as such instead of a square layout. Thanks for sharing this series with us along with your time and effort!
Thank you Shawn! I appreciate that very much
Amazing!!! I really like how the new area is coming along!
I’m really enjoying the layout progression. Always looking forward to the next episode.
Thank you!
Great job can't wait to see when you add the roads.
I'll say again, get the anyrail free software. You can place 50 pieces of track for free and If you do it right you can do a section at a time save it and have your while layout done for free!
Loving the vids. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! I’ll have to check that program out and use it for when I do more planning
Thanks for sharing!
The changes sound awesome.
Yay another video! Happy friday to you too :D
:D
Really great design, don’t know if your up for suggestions but it might look pretty neat to ad a culvert and drain pipe under a stretch of track
Love that idea!
That is a good idea I’ll have to look at some prototypes
You don't really need all of those little nails. With foam they really aren't holding anything. Use some push pins to hold the track in place while the glue dries and then remove them. That's much less difficult than the little nails and the pins can be used again.
Nice
😁
wow
I love your videos and I get excited everytime you post but then the videos are always so short no hate but I would love to see some longer videos
I completely understand! I promise a I’ll have an awesome long video next week 😁
Could you make a tutorial on how to create a grade crossing?
I’ve always been one to say
“F&$@ prototyping, if it looks realistic to me and I enjoy it, then it’s awesome.”
I like that
