interesting points ,if anyone else trying to find out how to build a model railroad layout plans try Pycanta Model Railroaders Protocol (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my brother in law got excellent results with it.
very inspirational. I built my first (so far) N guage inside my piano bench, I had 11" by 23" to work with. now I'm hooked, and am building my next one in the missing drawer section of a vintage dresser.
Steve, love your stuff. Thanks for sharing, I know it takes a lot of time and energy. Compared to many model railroaders, you seem very disciplined in keeping the layout footprint small. For most of us, that would require super human willpower! How do you do it?!!
Mostly because I don't currently have a lot of space for a larger layout, and I just like trying out different ideas in quick succession which is a lot easier to do with small layouts. One problem I've had with larger ones (I had a 4.5x8 foot layout prior to my 5x10 HO one I took down a couple of years ago) is that I'm often wanting to do something completely different before I even finish the layout.
Thanks! Your channel is fantastic by the way. I need to start playing with tinkercad and get a 3D printer. I love your videos on your designing and 3D printing structures. I just checked out the elegoo mars printer on amazon you had a link to and I couldn't believe you can get the quality of prints you have out of a printer that cheap. Those things have really come a long way. I'm probably going to pick one up later this year and start playing with one.
Yeah he is a beautiful dog. I’ll have a full video out in a couple of weeks on layout #15 which I am almost done with, so maybe I’ll have to get both dogs in there as well.
Thanks for all the tips and tricks. I'm new to n scale but experienced with HO. Having lost layouts to tornados (try to get an insurance company to pay for your blood seat and tears in building a layout) and kicked out of spare bedroom when it no longer became a spare, I feel N scale may be the way to go starting with a coffee table layout.
It's better than nothing at all. I lived most of my life in rental places and no place to build. I could join a club, but I'm not that kind of people person.
Thank you for this Steve, Im currently a guy with little space but in a couple years once I am able to purge some stuff from my garage I may end up with more space. I;ve always wanted to have some trains but sadly everythng I've ever wanted to do took either more time, more money, or more space than I had so for now I've vicariously through youtube modelers and toying around in the free trial of Scam. My problem is They don't make the Locos I would want to run in any scale lower than HO so I need HO level space minimum, and the locos I want to run are expensive so I need Expensive HO loco money, and then there's the fact I am the father of a 2 year old which eats up my time. Oh well one can dream
Steve, in response to this do you know any places that make nice N scale Canadian Steam Locos that I may have missed when I said they didn't make the Locos I like. I have 8 locos in mind, specifically the 4 preserved royal Hudsons, Empress, the two preserved Selkirks, and CN6060 but I have only found Rapido Icons of Canadian Steam that currently makes Royal Hudsons in HO (for $600 with dcc sound) and has plans to produce the rest of what I desire in future.
I liked layout 14 the best. You finished with a train set layout on a dining table, which gave me an idea - I don't know if you have thought of it, but you might consider making an N scale layout of a large O scale train set layout such as Lionel.
I'm in 1/960. That one offers a lot in a really small scale. The smallest layout I did was 55mm x 85mm. It was in 1/1920 scale (almost 1/2000) and is available to view on Tinkercad.
i am comsidering a 1901 layout.. liked the train in #9. Interested in doing a lot of horse drawn carriage is horseless carriage is and automobiles all in one scene plus a lot of different early American and Elizabethan buildings. Really enjoyed #11 Let me know if you're interested in doing a big layout in Philadelphia.
Very nice layouts. Thank you very much fpor sharing these with us. BTW: nice 1:1-scale ambulatory dog model you have there ... how'd you get it to move ;-)
Do you have a video on how you do the powered rotation of the layout? Many years ago MR had an April’s Fool layout that had the same idea with the rotation equally reversed to the train speed so that you viewed the train all the time while the scenery flew by.
It is actually just a motorized turntable I picked up a couple of years ago off of Amazon. It just has two speeds but if you get the train speed just right you can match the train speed to the turntable rotation speed.
Not specifically, but most of the smaller layouts that have one have a segment in a video on how I did it. Almost all are built from styrofoam covered in sculptamold.
Great video! I have all of my train things in storage at the moment but I hope to build a layout one day. I am wanting to have a small town but also have rural farmland as well. If you have any tips I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you in advance.
Layout #3 is definitely a favorite of mine! I forgot that Layout #8 was on your channel, I was looking at it when I was thinking about shelf layouts. Do you think you will ever build any layout designed to run long trains? Not that I do not like the micro layouts, just curious.
I hope to build a larger layout, at least a door-sized n scale one, at some point but don’t presently have a space for it. Eventually I will, but will be several years yet I think.
Hi Steves, I noticed that you don’t use E-Z tracks on your layouts. Are there reasons why? You don’t mind to share the where you purchase all the accessories to make your layouts? Thanks
Kato track is more robust but e-z track will work fine and if you have it then use it. There is also a much much larger selection of track pieces available with the Kato track which is nice. I use various hobby retailers such as fiferhobby.com, modeltrainstuff.com, Amazon often has a lot, basically just depends what I’m looking for and what prices are. Even my local hobby town store has a lot of Kato unitrack and that is a national chain.
Hopefully eventually. We have been remodeling the house this year so I haven’t worked on layout projects much at all but will be again here starting this fall.
Great layouts. Gives me a lot of motivation. I currently only have gscale track and trains and want to get into smaller gauge to possibly go around a basement. Would you recommend O or HO for that purpose?
Thanks! The battery stuff is pretty simple I think. I had many years of college physics and had to learn circuits for some computer science classes 25 years ago, and still remember at least some of how things like that work, though I’m definitely no expert.
Right, it is actually a 23” and change pine tabletop from Home Depot. I uses mix of 9 3/4” and 8.5” radius curves. Usually it is something two of the 9 3/4” curves and 6 of the 8.5” ones to leave a little more room for scenery. Or I will do all 8.5” and have a couple shorter sections of straight track.
Steves Trains Awesome! Thanks! I bought one of those table tops a few months ago after I discovered your videos. I thought it would be a good place to start for my first model. I’ve been stressing over the right track radius since. I wish I would’ve asked sooner.
In all, I used 4 endcap modules from masterpiecemodules.com, though I have never actually completed one of them and the river module was just built to fit under the Kato double track bridges. I kind of planned to eventually make the scenery more elaborate but then haven't been to a train show in a few years now so stopped working on them for now since that was the primary purpose of the project was for a train show display for kids to operate and such.
Most of these are N scale on Kato Unitrack. In terms of brands for the locomotives and such, there are a lot. Kato, Atlas, Athearn, Micro Trains, and others are all fine. Really, most will do fine for you. Bachmann products are cheaper and their locomotives are mixed. They are fine for starting out but I’ve had more long-term durability issues with some of them. Obviously completely depends how much you run stuff. Also, there are different grades of stuff from most manufactures. Kato had three levels of pricing and features but the same motors in all kinds. Even Bachmann has cheaper and more expensive versions of their products. In terms of getting a train set to start, I like the Kato sets the best but there isn’t a huge selection of options in terms of starter sets. But they do make track and power supply sets, and then you can just buy a locomotive and freight cars or whatever separately that fit your taste/price range.
I’ve thought about doing some kind of like that. I’m thinking about doing a folded dogbone type but with multiple folds so the track works it’s way up several levels to get to the top.
@@StevesTrains That might work with a double helix with points leading to the long run across a narrow layout. Planned you might get three trains running across river -- middle viaduct/bridge -- upper bridge -- top of the pass.
Very impressive layouts. You look like a scenery expert. I have a basement 20 × 24 feet. I am trying to design a local point to point layout. I would like to see how you would set-up a Yard to industries paper work oppression session. Thanks
Love this! I have a small closet in my room full of junk and I wanted to turn it into a sort of Utah based small layout like one of these, any suggestions? :DD

Hey Steve! Do you tend to sell layouts after some time of enjoying them yourself? I want to start with a small layout like your Christmas one you showed in this video but I know I won't stop at just one lol. I plan to build a layout and have it set up at home for awhile before moving on from it to build a new one and was wondering if you sell yours after awhile and if so how do you go about doing that?
Yes, I did. I'll have the last layout that was under construction in this video up for sale here at some point soon since I finished it more than a month ago now.
They’re beautiful layouts. I just got started with my n scale setup in my garage. It’s gonna be a fold up 3x6... now I’m so confused with all the possibilities you just shared. But I’m inspired beyond belief. 👍🏼

Steve do you sale layout! I am interested in purchasing a layout could be 3’ x6’ or 3’ x8’ please let me know I live in Houston tx my name is Rigo Rose
I do, but have at least a five year wait list at this point if not more. But sometimes I just sell layouts I build that aren’t built for someone else. You can drop me a message from the website at steves-trains.com and I can add you to the list, even if just to email you when a project is available for purchase.
I love seeing your videos you really do some amazingly great layouts have you ever thought about doing a small scale on30 logging layout? I bet you really could do a cool one of those. Cheers, Ken
I will never run a model railroad with a Caboose on my train. My grandfather worked on the railroad. My father worked on the railroad and I worked on the railroad. To me running a model train without a Caboose is blasphemy.
My current project is inside a carry case. I have a video from a month or two ago showing how I built the case. Sometime later this year I’ll have a video on adding the scenery to the layout.
