Really nice layout, structures, scenery, weathering, all very good. I really like the Rainbow arch bridge .We had three of those bridges in my hometown. I would walk across one on the way to the local hobby shop. Well done layout and video was well done also. Thanks
Man, that layout was just breathtaking - the huge industries, especially the grain elevators and that one with the real smoke. Also the whole scenery, water, bridges and greenery, everything looked so real. Subscribed and hope for more tours like that.
Thanks!
If that isn’t the Kansas City Power & Light plant off the Katy at Montrose, MO, it sure is a close twin! I’ll eventually be constructing one for my MKT Sedalia Sub layout. An excellent layout all around!
Wonderful! I love the Katy. I'm currently building a freelance HO Scale rural industrial branch line. Repersenting 12 miles inbound from a interchange connecting via with the Katy, roughly in the 1970s. I grew up in the town of Vinita Ok. in the 70's. The Katy and Frisco crossed each other in the center of town. I've got a million long hot summer Norman Rockwell memories from those days. The best they was in my life. My most best was the summer of 1978 when I was ten years old. I first took intrest in model railroading. My parents got me a Tyco Silver Streak HO set with working accessories for Christmas that year. So great to see someone modeling the Katy. Sometimes it seems that its forgotton by most people. The focus is always on U.P. or B.N.S.F., or other lines in the northeast U.S.. God Bless, sure wish I could come and see it in person. Thank you for sharing.👌👍
Thank you for sharing this experience!
The Katy layout looks great. I have many fond memories of the Katy and was fortunate enough to have had the privilege of riding the Katy Flyer, and the Texas Special.
I have visited this layout several times. If you are doing layout tours for the Austin Train Show, this is absolutely worth the drive. Most items are spot on the prototype, and the scenery overall is spectacular. Cars are all weathered perfectly. This is a must-see.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome! Can't wait to see the sunflower field finished!
The Katy was a great railroad. I always enjoyed visiting the Katy depot in our small town and the operator allowed me to listen in on the dispatcher's phone which was always a thrill. Too bad the days of the depots and train orders are gone. We lost the Katy, too. This layout brings back some great Katy memories.
Great layout and love the music.😂
The Burlington-Rock Island Joint Texas Division ran their trains on the MKT mainline between Dallas and Waxahachie. There were many trains each way, each day. This is a great layout. Well done.
Beautiful layout ! Thanks for the “ride along” on your visit. I really like how you kill the audio during a lot of background chatter 👍🏼👍🏼. I wish more guys would do that 😊
Great looking layout. Thanks for video tour.
I’m so glad to FINALLY see someone who is modeling the Barriger Era Katy. Don’t get me wrong, I love the Whitman green Katy but it doesn’t beat that simple Barriger red with classic logo. Just wish the model manufacturers would do more Barriger era locomotives. Excellent layout and I hope to see some more of it!
Green Stripes is where it's at baby. Nothing cooler. 🥸
What an incredible layout!
Great layout and great video. Thanks.
Nonetheless this is an impressive Katy layout 👏
Nice Layout tour, real nice Layout.
Steve's layout is amazing!
