hi Larry... the trip you just watched in real life is 195 miles... in "N" scale 33 feet=1 "N" scale mile... so if i wanted to do the entire195 mile i would need 6435 feet of track... my house is not big enough so we use "selective compression" ...this layout is based on what is here in Phoenix...street names.. industry names are all real (prototypical).. just like our car models that we try to make look like the real thing.. the same here but scaled down.. this type is called "prototype railroad"... then you have a layout that in non prototypical which is called "free lance"... i will be rebuilding the layout as a proto/lance & will be in one room... hope you have a great new year... thx 4 watching vinny
hi Jeff... this layout took 10 years to get to were it is...& now it's going away to make room for a new layout... thx 4 watching & your comment.. vinny
hi Jim.... the layout you have seen in this video & the last one took just over 10 years to build & lots of $$$$$.. and still wasn't finished... the rebuild will be smaller in one room instead of 2 rooms... hope you have a great new year... thx 4 watching ... vinny
Very therapeutic watching model trains make their journeys through a layout. Awesome stuff Vin.
hi Ronald.... glad you enjoyed the video... thx 4 watching & happy new year.. vinny
@ ❤️ Happy New Year.
That is a very cool railroad setup and seeing it actually run, I can see the attraction to this form of modeling.
