Wonderful video, good lighting, excellent communication, super job… Many folks trying this should watch this and learn how it’s done right… Excellence is not an accident!
G'day Tom, howdy from New Zealand and a fellow O scaler albeit a 2R modeller. A nicely put together clip, a great layout and neat story. Thanks for sharing your modelling journey. Best Regards Brent
Thanks so much John for bringing this wonderful HiRail O gauge layout to our attention. My bias is showing when I say I really enjoy some 3-rail O-scale coverage. Tom has done a wonderful job on his layout and his fine work needs to be recognized for all the effort it took to achieve such a fine level of detail to what some consider toy trains.
One great-looking O Gauge layout, and excellent modeling too. The reference to the third rail would probably refer to the weathering and darking of it, almost masking it.
Lived in Newhall from 1975-2011. Saw the Saugus station everyday. Station was used in the Sinatra picture "Suddenly" when it was in it's original location.
Hi neighbor! Lived in Newhall from 1975-2012.If,you make a wrong turn and windup in Menifee, I'll show you my Lionel post war with working drive-in movie theatre.
Beautiful layout! Well done. Only one comment. Please paint the side of your outside rails rust color! That would finish off the track so that it looks like it should. Thanks for sharing.
Ok, now with GREAT respect: this layout is wonderful. While I could (and probably am wrong) it appears that 3 rail O gauge runs flawlessly, when in fact, there are many more problems with 2 rail O gauge. I could be wrong! Personally, I can't come to grips with 3 rail track, but that's my problem. A wonderful layout nevertheless. Thank you for this video.
That's a nice railroad!

The light at the AC cabforward stack allowed the firemen to see the smoke column during darkness. It was prototypical on all SP cabforwards.
