thats casey jones's train!! off the cartoon
I love trolleys so much i might make one out of paper
A true work of art!!
MTH is King
link specchietti e leve?
How much cost this complete loyaout?
why does every one shoot layouts at such low angles it looks awful i want to see the whole thing.
Great Video....... Glad it all went smoothly......
Hey Chris, another great video. Just remember the part about no progress when you see my layout in July.
Hi Chris glad you had a great open house do you think the overworked engines can be fixed reasonably
Thanks for filming my club's layout. Unfortunately, I couldn't head out there with them. Hopefully, we will be in the Greenburg show in Edison, NJ, in August.
Hi Chris, what a great opportunity to have the TCA Convention right there in your town, very cool! Enjoyed seeing the convention hall and particularly the Raritan Valley Hi-Railers, all the detail was amazing. I am glad you had a good time sharing your railroad with so many convention goers. The layout looked awesome and I am sure they all had a great time. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Bill B.
Trains always know when to act up . Same thing happened to me at Christmas . 3 sets running for a few days before with 3 different layouts without problems . Friends come over for dinner and see the trains and all 3 decide to act up with 3 different problems .
(14:40) That's me!
And just when you think you have everything running perfectly it throws your curveball all the time, and truly Chris you're really out will never be finished you always find something to do with it
Loved your video, what a great event. What are the dimensions of your layout, just 🤨
Congrats! You made it! The layout looked awesome! Thanks for being part of the 70th TCA Convention. Thank you for giving those of us who could not make it a glimpse of the convention! It looked like a lot of fun and I am definitely excited for it to be in Texas in 2026. Thank you, Chris, for all you do to support and share the hobby! -Ricky
Sorry your trains didn’t behave. That always seems to happen when guests are over!
Great Video! Helps the TCA members like me who can't make the trip... your Layout looks great!
I love the "I'd Rather Be Running my Lionel Trains" license plate, and that's what I should always do because Lionel O-Gauge is way better than Bachmann HO.
It isn't just the quality of the buildings, it's also the incredible interior detail.
In general do I find the 3 rail O gauge something for kids to play with, but this is mindblowing
Glad you had a successful tour. As a fellow educator I had to laugh at the engines " going on strike " and not working. We can prep the kids all week., are sure they know what they are doing and then at open house, BAM it's as if they never heard the stuff LOL LOL We just take it in stride and go on.
Congratulations on a very successful layout tour for the TCA Convention! It is inevitable for something to 'act up' at the most inopportune time. I'm sure you handled you with the utmost poise and grace. And, of course, your audience was probably extremely forgiving as well!! Wish I could have been there but it wasn't in the cards this time!! Keep up the great work and representation of our hobby!!
Thanks for your hospitality Your layout is spectacular See you in October 🚂🚂⭐️
Great job Chris. Thanks for your support 👍👍
Sorry to miss your layout tour. I just returned from Italy and missed it!
This whole week was an awesome experience , Im so glad our club was able to be there for one of its members and help you out in the biggest event . Just seeing the busses in the cul-de-sac at your house was once in a lifetime experience . Congrats on the huge success of the tours , it was a lot of work and a ton of planning and I'm glad it all worked out . OK what's next 😂
Glad it went well and you got through it, lots of work! But yeah, you jinxed yourself saying how well everything was working. 🤣
Hey Chris! I want to thank you for letting me know the other day that METCA only had two of those RBMN SD50’s left, I placed an order the next morning and I can’t wait for it!
Update: I just got it today and it looks way better in person than it does in video! Can’t wait to run it at the club!
The level of detail on the hi-railers layout is amazing!!
Great video Chris.
The layout looks awesome and everyone enjoyed themselves. Great job and now it's time for a well deserved rest.
You are you tube royalty Sorry about the gremlins Do you think it is the DCS
You know as well as anyone else, that when you go to show it off, that is when everything is likely to go wrong, you can test everything out for weeks ahead of time, but when showtime comes, Murphy's Law always takes effect!
Raritan Valley Hi-Railers layout looked spectacular. I'm sure all the folks that visited were grateful for your generosity in sharing your layout and expertise.
Magnificant Modeling and weathering. You tend to forget it's third rail and tend to watch it as if it were prototype in the 1940's because the layout is so well detailed.
Hey Chris! Nice short of the Pennsylvanian rolling by but there's an elephant in the room! Where did you pick up that Amtrak Baggage Car from?? Don
Just got it from golden gate depot
Beautiful passenger train! Very nice indeed! Bill B.
How many people miss the caboose's on the end of the train?
Cool beans.....load up those cars with coal.....
Chris - New lighting on the layout is great, it makes such a difference in the videos. Really enjoyed video, would like to see more of the PC E8. Please remove the faux air hose from the 2rail coupler. You have done such an amazing job making the unit more realistic and that just jumps out. Hope all is well and Summer is great. Jim P.
Those sounds are actually insane
You know, I just ordered a Lionel ES44AC and Pre-Ordered an XT44. I love the ATLAS detail, but not having a FIXED PILOT is the Killer for me. ATLAS needs to start incorporating REALISTIC FIXED PILOTS!! My ES and ET have fixed Kinematic pilots along with my Mighty EMD E5 and SW-8. I cant STAND that SPLIT on the curves! 😖
They offer fixed pilots in the 2-rail versions which you can convert to three rail.
Correction the Lima built Pierre Markette 2-8-4 berkshire 1225 was the model they used for the polar express, it along with Nickel Plate 759 & 765, C&O 2716, 2760, and others, all built by lima to the Van Serwegen Design.
They are extremely lucky that they did not punch through the flew sheet and have a boiler explosion .
Awesome Store👍
Awesome video 😊
I love the new headlight look. It changes the whole look of the bike to the older models of the ducati monsters. Looks like my ducati monster 620.
A gorgeous, classy locomotive
