The Claremont Docks Railroad is Howard Lloyd's rendition of a 1940s railroad terminal in the New York Harbor area. This is a stunning HO Scale layout with a strong maritime element. The confluence of maritime and railroad modes of transportation are shown off in this one, and doing it in the broader context of the New York Harbor region in the 1940s really works.

This layout is a treasure, both historically and as to the tremendous quality of the work. There's more to the hobby than operations! Mr. Lloyd is to be commended.
This layout is incredible - I love how Howard worked in elements of his youth and his love of building boats and structures into the layout. Absolutely stunning work - especially on those boats and ships! Thank you for sharing with us!
Mr. Lloyd's model of the steamship SS MILEVA is an exquisitely detailed work of art, extremely accurate in every respect. During WWII, any vessel that floated was pressed into the war effort, not only for trans-Atlantic service, but also for coastwise transport. The MILEVA is a beauty to behold.
Terrific how the scene reflects your memories of Jersey City. Excellent work as well.
Truly one of the most interesting model railroad related video's I've seen yet. Howard seems like a nice guy and very interesting, I could listen to his stories for days. My grandfather introduced me to model railroading many years ago and would tell me stories about him and his dad working on the Reading RR. in particular the Reading Anthracite & Coal Company at Locust Summit near Locust Gap Pennsylvania, from 1945 when my grandfather exited the European theater to the early 1960's. Howard has similar stories to tell and is still around to tell them, I can't stress enough how important it is to pay attention and learn all you can. My grandfather passed in 2006 at the age of 85, he still had many stories to tell but I missed them, and will for the rest of my life. Much love and respect to you Howard, and you as well John, thank you so much for this rich knowledgeable video, you're greatly appreciated. - Dave B.
I’m doing On3 with a harbor, so inspirational
Wow, that 40 minutes flew by! Not only was the model railroad very well done, but what an interesting presentation too. Mr. Lloyd is full of great stories and trivia. Thank you for sharing.
Holla...NJ in da house!
Like the realistic looking layout
Wow. Everything down to the water is perfect.
I to model a dock railroad in a room at a similar size. I model the late 40s just after the war. I combine my love for ships ,barges and trains all in one It's nice to see another person modeling harbors. Your freighter is amazing.
Very nice work. I appreciate your focus on the model building and not the operations.
Now this is a layout a young hobbyist would dream of
I was in the navy, I have been a model railroad fan all my life. I love how you mixed both hobbies. I could watch this man give tours every day. Thanks for sharing
Very useful and informative explanations of how these buildings and places actually work .I'm modelling a very similar layout and it has helped and inspired me .thank you😊😊
Super layout Howard and beautifully detailed. So much to interest everyone who shares this hobby of building structures and model railway infrastructure. Congratulations on preserving all the wonderful ideas on video.
Amazing what the algorithms produce. I went to a small private boys boarding prep school from 1963 to 1968 called Claremont School just outside Hastings on the south coast of England. This is a fascinating little video to have stumbled across. I was in New York City in 1974 - not a lot different look and feel from this despite being a model of an earlier period. The docks and freighter remind me of sailing via Elder Dempster Line between Liverpool, Accra in Ghana, and Lagos in Nigeria in my earliest years till I just turned 6 in 1961. Years later, the charity I co-founded in East London oversaw a larger than life bronze sculpture of dock workers now standing outside ExCeL exhibition centre by Royal Victoria Dock in London Borough of Newham - it's very similar to some of your figures and images on internet.
I could listen to that guy all day. Felt like a museum tour.
the port is really nice a great model
Indeed it is!
There's a great deal of technical, detailed, engineering level thinking that went in to the layout with the whole emphasis being on everything else around the trains. I'm used to seeing layouts with the train being the primary focus. But with this it's the boats and buildings.
Absolutely Top Notch Admire how he build from his Early Yrs Exceptional Craftsmanship! .
Very nice layout
wow great looking dock area!!
Awesome, love the att. to detail. Thanks Mr. Lloyd for giving us the virtual tour. I really enjoyed it.
Amazing, really something to aspire to. The attention to detail is phenomenal.
Very nice layout and I love the narration
One of my favorite videos and tours. Amazing models and variety of skills presented so humbly. Clearly, this was a labor of love and sweet memory driven. I am so glad I found this. I hope this gentleman has continued to share his talent with a whole new generation of us. Thank you sir.
What a BEAUTIFUL layout -- museum quality in every respect, a real work of art! Thank you for sharing your handiwork with us.
I read an article about this layout in Model Railroader some time ago. What a beautiful layout. The craftsmanship is second to none. Howard is quite the artist, with a wonderful eye for detail. Thanks for featuring this masterpiece. Excellent video!
Very well done, minimal scenery that just works. No overcrowding of space!
Great job!
Wonderful layout! So much to be inspired by and to learn from. Incredible life like detail!
Thank you Howard, very nice! I liked reading about your layouts in the MR magazine. Fits my interests, as I was a marine engineer in my younger days and now I enjoy model railroading.
Really good to see the layout tours are back.
Beautiful layout.
Thx for showing it.
The boats and ships are exquisite. Beautiful work.
I enjoyed your tour, Howard. I appreciate your creativity and attention to detail.
Charming gentleman combined with world class modeling. The detail of this 4k layout is much more than my 720p eyes can take in 🤣 Another great tour John. Cheers Rob
Absolutely beautiful!
WOW! This layout is the real deal. Thank you for sharing this.
What a beautiful layout!
Fascinating layout. I love the relationship between water front and rail.
Love the historical detail, along with all the wharf scenes.
So nice to listen to Mr.Lloyd's story! Very interesting! And what a brilliant analytical way to make a layout from a prototype idea! Not to mention his fantastic modeling and detailing skills!
I visited the original layout back when and it was a Treasure. This carries on Howard's fine work.
Absolutely sensational layout the workmanship and attention to detail is fantastic job well done 🙂👌
Beautiful masterpiece, provides so much inspiration.
Mr. lloyd, what a wonderful creation you have brought forth. Inspirational.
What an awesome model railroad !!! I can tell that a tremendous amount of forethought went into the planning process. Thank you for sharing this awesome work of art with us !!!

Thanks for sharing and giving us the background for your ideas!!!!!!
Mr.Lloyd,I loved this video and I loved reading the article in Model Railroader. I studied your photos for a very long time and you are truly in my top ten all time favorite modelers!!
Huge fan of Mr. Lloyd's modeling. Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent layout, and great historical information.
The last time I commented was 8 months ago and I was still planning freelance rail barge operations on my GCL south Texas coastal layout in the 1910-1935ish time era, now I’ve basically reconfigured to the point of near prototype design, but your layouts details and similarities between the both of us is perfect for learning and idea building as I continue to build my model empire thank you!
Literally stunning 🤩
This layout if I may be bold to say is an labor of love!
Love industrial layouts. Your work is inspiring. Well done :-)
Loved the tour! Awesome job on all the structures and boats.
I wish I could think of the words to express how much I admire your layout and the thought which went into it. Extremely enjoyable......... So, I'll just say, "Good job, Boss". Thanks so much.
Excellent use of small area. Fantastic detail
You have to admire a man with passion
Absolutely stunning workmanship! Sheer delight to watch.
very nice - incredible detail and passion thanks for sharing.
This was a wonderful video! A lot of work, a lot of care to detail and history! I really enjoyed the information shared about the building of this layout! WOW!!!
Beautiful modeling especially the ship detail.
Very nice layout with great attention to detail!
Fascinating and wonderful video! Thanks so much.
This is a Fantastic Railroad!!!! You have done a beautiful job in building this layout. Thanks for sharing your layout!!!!
Very enjoyable Howard. Thanks! I build ships too. For my funnels I use EMT electrical conduit. I choose the diameter I need for a particular size vessel, cut the length I want, wrap a shop towel around it and then squeeze it into an oval shape in a table vise. I also use homasote fiber board to make my hulls, shaping them with a jigsaw. Then I wrap them with strips of roofing paper. I use track nails to both hold the roofing paper in place and simulate rivets. Mesh wire fences make good railings too.
By using homasote boards I can have a good flat bottom base and stack them accordingly to create the effect of either a laden ship or one free of cargo.
Very inspirational video!
such a wonderful and engaging story teller, on top of a top notch modeler!
Excellent job! Congrats, Howard! And Happy New Year!
The reason why. for the layout, and the history are very intriguing. The craftmanship is truly remarkable! I wish that I had your skill and wherewithal to big my dream layout.
Thank you for the layout tour. Very nice, incredible details. It was a pleasure to watch.
Glad you enjoyed it!

That’s so cool. A set from your own backyard.
I enjoyed this particular layout being from that area also
Amazing, great job.
Thanks!
Thank you, too!
outstanding layout and video
BEST DETAIL VIDEO ON VERY DETAIL LAYOUT
Thank you!
If I can get half as good of layout as you've got here Howard I'll have something. Man what a nice set-up you have. I'm a big Baldwin VO-1000 or VO-660's fan myself. Right now I'm tinkering with some high-torque low rpm DC motors thats got the rare earth magnets in them with 5 & 6 pole skewed armatures to repower all my Baldwin diesels for ultra slow realistic speed movements. Great paint scheme on yours, love it bud.
The detail contained in this layout is immense, it was so breathtaking to view this layout even on the small screen. I would love to visit in person!
What a wonderful guy and craftsman modeller
Awesome!
Hello. A beautiful model railway. Could watch for hours. Greetings Tino
Looks like it would be a pleasure to operate! Nice job!
Very nice railroad!
Very very very nice!
muito linda!!! parabéns pelo detalhamento!!!
17:54 insane details man
He did a series of articles for Railroad Model Craftsman magazine or Model Railroader magazine a few years ago about this layout I think. Am I right or am I remembering something wrongly? Awesome model boats and layout either way. Definitely shows he enjoys building ship models by the way the navy ship looks. Great video. 👍
