One of , if not the nicest layout I've ever seen. Lots of great industries. Great use of space. Realistic curves and switching.

[@SPSteve]

Impressive! I'd like to see more about the Arduino. I'm considering using them to control lighting in buildings.

[@yzfmike84]

Its too later but Azatrax makes a break out board for all Atlas Signals.

[@ronaldrondeau7870]

Thanks for the tour, for me its to complicated and costly to have all thoses electronic (Andriono and JMRI) i will stay on manual for operation on my layout

[@modeltrains_365]

Thanks for watching. The electronics can be a blessing and a curse for sure!

[@pacificcoasttrains3785]

Thanks for the overview- you have a lot of (fun) work ahead of you! As a native St Louisan, I appreciate the STL terminus. Also, where did you get the White Ninja print?

[@modeltrains_365]

Go Cards! The Ninja decals are from Fusion Scale Graphics. Let them know I sent you their way!

[@pacificcoasttrains3785]

@@modeltrains_365 not the decals- the art on the wall in the back see 6:17

[@modeltrains_365]

@@pacificcoasttrains3785 Ah- sorry. I bought it from him personally.

[@pacificcoasttrains3785]

Very cool! I'm wearing my 2 Ninjas sweatshirt now coincidentally.

[@nyg21bd]

I love the BD20 holders, could I buy some from you(25)? How did you complete your wiring? I would love for you to show us how you completed that step.

[@modeltrains_365]

Thanks for watching. I made the BD20 mounts available on my Ebay account - You can find a link in the video description or search for user: modeltrains365 on ebay!

[@franzbrunner499]
