- I started Working on the upper loop. I also created some mock up tunnel portals. We are finally starting to make some noticeable progress 
Love the layout plan...
It's always exciting when we get to see an update video!
Great update. Coming along nicely!
Thank you! 🙌🏻 Hoping to build a NS collection also
your updates are fine and we enjoy them
Big fan of the series can’t wait for the next video.
That really means a lot!
Very nice looking for to see the progress on the layout 👍🏻🚂🔔
Means a lot!
Looks really good so far can’t wait to see more 💯🚂❤️
Thanks!
Please leave the tunnel at that height because of container cars. By the way the lay-out is on point.
Looking good!
You have done the best job that I have seen with ballasting fast track! I do think you should have added sound deadening under the track though, because the plastic track is very noisy. Good job so far on the layout!
That means a lot! I also feel I should have added deadening
If you run an actual transformer you can hide the wires easier, still power lionchief, run traditional lionel and have the fun of owning a ZW.
I like close clearances too. Iam pigeon hole myself, I like O27 and traditional O.
Awesome layout. Keep the updates coming! Just found your channel and subscribed. Excited to see the layout progress
I have seen a video where they used aluminum foil. It was fairly fast to do and looked great after it had wrinkles put in it and painted the inside. When done it looked like it had been blasted out of the rock when the train head light hit the surface of the tunnel.
If you not going to run any of the taller rolling stock lower it down decently. It coming along well. I started out this was as well then wanted to run the larger engines and had to start all over
trucking companies: this truck can haul more than 50,000 pounds!
railroading companies: what the fuck is a pound? i only work in tons.
Maybe look at getting a gimbal instead of a whole new camera. I use an iPhone and DJI OM5 and it really gives nice results. Can’t beat 3-axis gimbals
Going to look that up now! I definitely need a camera for those down low shots. iPhones have such a harsh focus when it comes to those close rolling shots.
Excellent work . . . it's coming along. A recommendation for a Legacy steamer: Lionel's USRA 0-6-0 shipping the end of this year. AND it's got a Swinging Bell ! ! ! according to Dave: ua-cam.com/video/1uyg4jfyECc/v-deo.html. And the programmable speed switch from slow switcher to road speed is too cool! Jus' sayin' 🙃 Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing your layout.
I’ll have to check that out! Thanks for the recommendation
That's what you say right now but I guarantee you going to be buying Auto wrecked cars in the future and you going to regret you didn't build it the right way but it's your first layoff so hey have fun good luck that's how we all started out we just going to do one thing and then we end up doing something else
Probably right 🤷🏻♂️
Your two Christmas themed box cars, where did you pick them up?
I found them at a flea market. Almost all the cars I have were from a single trip
Upper deck is way to high. The gradient required to get your trains up there will be too steep, even by modeling standards.
This will be its own loop.
Get one of the tallest cars Lionel makes. Plan ahead for that. A year later you’re interested can and probably will change. It’s easier to make it fit now than later after everything has been finished. I would also do like you suggested and lower the risers by about an inch and a half or two. Other than that, the layout is looking pretty good! Thanks for sharing! Chris from Cbtrainnut on UA-cam!
you have too much track - no houses - no cars - no trees - no scenery
