- The layout has been missing a siding for too long. Today we change that! It's time to lay down some Bachmann E-Z Track and get our trains rolling again!

Nice to see someone using the Bachman track. I absolutely love this track it’s already on a roadbed and can easy be glued down.
Absolutely love it! The train geek in me would love the garage full of train sets 😂 great video
👍👍Very nice, looking great! Glad to see I'm not the only that uses Bachmann EZ Track LOL! 🚂🚂
I think it's great for temporary setups, like in our case. We can keep experimenting with different setups.
I had my first train set in the early 90's... I would have loved EZ Track back then. Instead my dad nailed down the track and I was stuck with a circle LOL. Thanks for watching!
Glad to see the bachmann track - its been so hard finding video's using this track only. Would this siding be possible using a DC layout as well ? Also could you do an informational video showing the bachmann track radiuses laid next to each other for reference please !
Forgot to mention ... the bachmann radius video would be N SCALE please
That is a good idea. We will try to do that sometime for both HO and N scale!
Also stay tuned for a new HO Scale collection video soon!
Great video and inspirational for those getting started. I really liked the fact both of you are involved building a layout. I subscribed.
Thanks! Teamwork makes the dream work!
hello trains in the valley it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy
Awesomeness 😊
Very nice and well done
You guys are doing a great job planning...I'm too jumpy and just go to it as I go along ...making lots of do overs
Your layout is really nice guys. I hope to soon have my rather modest o gauge layout back up and running soon.
Thanks and I hope so too! It's rough every time we change around the mainline... it usually means no trains are running! And I also know what it is like to have to tear everything down. Our layout moved 3 times... and I'm sure it will move again lol!
nice! miss u on whatnot
Hey Frank! We miss it too. We'll be back soon. A lot of "life stuff" happened this summer. We'll have a train shop update coming pretty soon with the details too!
Love This Video when You get Your Track Work It Slowly When you have The Right piece Go slow And It will Be What it Is A Beautiful Piece of Work. I Run Bachmann N Scale And No Problemes Love It my Wife Runs Kato And Bachmann N Scale And She Loves it And So do I.👍.
Cool video, love those BN's and a buddy of mine told me yesterday about NS8100 the Nickel Plate Road heritage unit and I got to see it and it was second on MNLCH 09 on Union Pacific's Chester Subdivision and did you guys hear about CSX's newest heritage units?
Awesome! It's always cool when you get to catch heritage units! Yes, we have been following the CSX heritages. I'm glad they decided to make them. I don't think everybody is a fan of how they did the schemes, but I'm just glad they are doing anything! I'll be looking for that Chessie!
@@TrainsintheValley Yeah, some people don't like the new CSX heritage units are because they're half painted and I'm looking for the Chessie System too.
Did you ever consider Kato Unitrack???...😊
What are you using for power? I have an approximately 5x9 layout using the ez track and I have 3 derailed/power tracks spread out but I seem to have power gaps. Yours looks very smooth and consistent.
Hey! We use Bachmann Dynamis. We only have 1 red power cord going to the layout, it is working well. Bachmann makes a voltage tester that is handy for finding where power is low. It led me to discover that some of my railjoiners were not connected right or just not working anymore. Feel free to reach out to my email, maybe I can help troubleshoot victoria@trainsinthevalley.com

Hello! Which software are you using to render your track-plan drawing?
We use the paid version of SCARM. It's very handy to say the least!
What track planing software are you using
It's called SCARM. It's very handy for any scale or brand that we've encountered!
What's the minimum track radius on your layout? Thanks!
The outer loops are 28" and 26". There are a few industries where we used 22" for smaller cars like 100 Ton Hoppers and 2 Bay Covered Hoppers. Thanks for checking!
What is the program you use to make your layout?
We use the paid version of SCARM. It's nice because it has a large library of different brands of track.
What's the size of the layout?
16' x 12' with a good amount of space in the middle. We wanted every spot to be somewhat easy to access.
@TrainsintheValley that's what I thinking about or 18x12. If you had to guess how much would you say you spent on ez track,
@@The_Duggler25 Probably somewhere around $500. A lot of the mainline switches are DCC and our yard uses the big #6 switches. We're still laying track though, we just did a very basic intermodal yard. We're starting to add some E-Z track to our website, if you ever need anything, feel free to reach out on the website! Have fun designing your setup!
I hope its N scale lol
NM lol
Cool Vid!!!
Thanks for watching! We almost went N Scale, but my first train set was HO... so it just seemed right to go that way!
