    One of the most beautiful layouts I have seen. The design, the details, it is all very realistic. A lot of work but also a lot of pleasure radiates from it. Greetings from the Netherlands!

      I agree, they did a beautiful job. I wish I lived closer to this club. It’s a 3 hour drive for me to get there. I can’t wait to go again. ( I first posted this reply to you after you commented, but for so reason it posted as a comment, not a reply??)

    The Rochester junction area is very well done. Thats an amazing model the depot that, unfortunately, no longer stands. I do appreciate the efforts of the volunteers who do their best to preserve the real place as a park. The club did a good job of modeling the actual location given having to compress it. The Lehigh Valley lives on!

    Thanks again for stopping by our open house this year! Your video turned out great from it. It was good to see you again and include all of the shenanigans throughout the day. Feel free to stop by again. I'm glad I didn't cause an incident at 15:12 unlike Norfolk Southern in Ohio... maybe I could get a BCOL engine as a reward for not derailing anything?

    Howzit : What a GREAT Layout; with scenery; structures and detail of absolute note ! Which makes the lack of weathering on many Locos and items of Rolling-Stock being most surprising and indeed; a tad disappointing 😔 .. The overly clean; * Shiny Plastic * trains being such a contrast to the passing high quality everything !🤙🚂

    • @MyLifesTracks
      @MyLifesTracks  Рік тому

      I believe this open house was have fun and run whatever members would like. For example, they don’t normally run Thomas stuff, but it thrills the little kids who came to visit. I was told when they do operation sessions they have era specific trains and I’m not sure how that rolling stock looks. Overall though, it’s a beautiful layout and a fun club!

      It was an Open House event, not a private tour. What you can do is, put the video on and turn off the volume. Then have a second device and have it play a video of train sounds. Problem solved.
