This is one of the most realistic railroads I have ever seen. Rarely does someone create exactly what they wanted and you have. I would have commented by saying all of the things that you said that you tried to create and finish. Finish? It looks it. Thank you so much for sharing this video of your amazing layout. I am blown away with the realism of each of the scenes and then to see the automation of the staging yards that turn off the power to the track and then power it up and throw the turnouts for the route to bring the train out to the layout. That was incredible. Wow.
its so great to have another update! i really hope you make another "trainfanning" video, where you show tons of beautiful trains from different spots, that was a superb video you did!
Absolutely beautiful layout with very realistic scenes of contemporary railroading. All the complex lower deck staging yard tracks will create a problem for anyone such as myself. My old knees don't take well to crawling under a layout. But the visible layout is masterful and all that staging is essential for making the layout operations successful.
You have a wonderful layout! I admire the ability to combine the buildings, the vehicles and scenery to really capture the feel of the area. I have enjoyed many of your videos and appreciate getting to have a look at the whole thing. You have done a great job on this layout.
Well done, Per. Great job and this is a layout I hope to see sooner than later. Glad you are safe and healthy down there!! Great layout. One of my favs !!
Great layout ! It's so refreshing to see a layout that actually represents 'civilization'. Too many layouts treat hi-ways, roads, and city streets as 'afterthoughts', but you treat them as accurately as I have EVER seen on any model railroad. Congratulations on a project well executed !
Thanks for sharing. You should video the Eagle running and stopping on your layout. I would love to see that. Not many show there Amtrak trains. I got to ride the Eagle from Huston through San Antonio on to Tucson, AZ I think it would make a fun video. Thanks for sharing. Such a Beautiful layout.
Just LOVE watching your videos of your layout. I'm glad you made this and the extra info. Your layout is very well planned out. Beautifully executed, and modeled. And just really fun to watch. Curious if you do operations on your layout. I know you stated it's more geared for train watcher and you nailed it. But it really looks cool for operations too. Would love to know. Anyway, thanks again for another awesome video. Cheers!!
This is by far the best layout I have ever seen! Your scenery is in a class of its own! Very well done video! Our son was at Ft Polk in Leesville and I so bad wanted to make it ahead down to see your layout but never worked out. 😢 Best wishes from Indiana.
Great walk through! One thing that sticks out to me is your grass clumps, I'm curious if you made them all individualy and glued them one at a time or have another method of doing it. They look fantastic and would like to see if I can replicate it on my layout.
Thank you. The larger areas of grass clumps are made with Silflor grass mats from Scenic Express, with individual Silflor grass tuffs added at the edges of the mats (to hide the sharp edges) and for smaller areas.
Wow! This is marvelous! You've done an amazing job. One thing I noticed, though, is that law enforcement seems to be very busy in your part of Texas. :)
Excellent layout. I hope to one day get a rigged up ghetto version of your layout (the RUG line) in a Chicago area setting. How much $ have you invested in this layout?
You should get some canadian national locomotives the sd70acu C44-9W and they gevo locomotives they sometimes are leased imunits running for csx in texas
Ja, født og opvokset, jeg flyttede som 46-årig her til Louisiana i 2004 og er nu også statsborger her. Hvis du holder Model Railroader kommer der en artikel om anlægget på et eller andet tidspunkt, jeg har lige skrevet kontrakt i sidste uge.
The Jack In The Box was a kit I offered several years ago, but I had to stop because they would not let me use their logo and building design. The other chains are easier to work with.
@@perlaursen478 I wish we had met back then. I probably could have gotten it worked out. Retired now and a total change in management at HQ in San Diego. I certainly would have wanted one!
Fantastic is understatement, one my favorite layouts.
It's, AWESOME very AWESOME !!!***********
This is an amazing layout, and I could only ever dream of having one like this
IF HE WOULD SELL IT I WOULD BID 1,000,000 Dollars for it (including the trains)
Thanks for sharing a tour of this wonderful project. And please keep posting updates. It's just a pleasure for the eyes.
Just incredible, the most detailed modern model railroad I have ever seen. So realistic, you should be very proud of your accomplishment! JEP

Unbelievable layout! Fantastic work, the best I have ever seen!
A very beautiful layout. Captures the scene. Beautiful buildings and atmosphere.

Every time I start to feel pretty good about the progress on my home layout I watch one of your videos and feel like giving up, ha ha!
One of the top 5 layouts I have ever seen. It looks real. It sounds real. Just wind to move the trees ans some bird songs would sell it. Thanks.
I really enjoy your vidoes and your style of modeling and it gives me something to aspire to in my own work.
I am glad that your family and layout survived all the horrific weather that you all had this year! Your layout is inspirational!
What a beautiful layout! Very inspirational, thanks for sharing....

It is certainly amongst the most professional layouts in North America. My favorite anyways.

Where do you get the model trains from? I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW!
Simply Great!
Very nice!!
Have any heritage units? That would be cool!
Phenomenal!
Incredible
If their is a steam locomotive that I would like to see run on this layout, it would be Union Pacific 4-8-4 Northern #844 because I like her.
I’m trying to design a layout with a similar design within an almost identical space. What is the radius of your big half loops on the peninsula?
The peninsula half loops are 38" and 35½". Most big curves are 35-40". Minimum radius is 30" but only used on hidden tracks. Maximum grade is 1.5%
@@summitmodeltrainvideos4440 thank you!
outstanding!!
Greetings : We ARE Looking At The * REAL * Thing; Are We Not ? ! The Realism Is Beyond Description .... MUCH Congrats ! Best Regards / John

How big of a layout is this?
About 1100 sq.ft.
This is an awesome setup.
I need to buy a bigger house on

I'm Having A Model Train From Lionel Union Pacific.

Someday I love meet you run trains with you
Hi
my layout looks like a trash can compared to this
