4:43 It looks like a landslide on the track.

[CabooseFanatic01]

OMG I'm using an IPad to watch this and your using it too!

[thebige61]

@CabooseFanatic01 Weeeeel not really. What you see is an HP Mini 1000 Netbook. I use it for live streaming.

At 1:33 Where does the middle track go? Does it turn around?

[latinfly100]

Hey E what type of foam is it?????, cant belive  how you do this , really nice ,great job. Im going to try do it myself for Chrismas , but way smaller than that , thatk you for your amazing video , your time and sharring your knoleage.

[thetreeregimovies]

@latinfly100 Extruded foam. Try Home Depot (Mine doesn't have it though :/ ) Or Lowes or any home improvement store.

Love the video of your layout construction and scenery wishing you would make it so we could get a copy of them of you on DVD, I for one would pay a minimal cost to get the stuff on DVD, to be able to sit and watch them in my train room and use it as a referance idea for my scenery.

Love the vid but the camera tripod needs some wd-40.

[thebige61]

@daddyrabbit1234 True, true....

[QuantumRise]

@daddyrabbit1234 sheesh yeah it does omg

[coolruehle]

@daddyrabbit1234 Sounds like I am on a Spanish galleon.

Hey this is looking great, I'm not sure where your layout is based (ei, uk us or what every) but i think the v shape in the mountain at the end would make a great waterfall/ stream. Ive just been to wales in the UK and i think the water fals around their woud inspire me to put them in my layout!

[eTraxx]

.. and sooo .. it begins .. again!

[Palanthon]

Outstanding! I've been wanting to see you do some N scale work! LOVE your vids! Keep 'em up!

[RobertoLane]

Great video! Thank you for your advise. I've used your technique for my slot car track.

I've also made bricks and blocks from styrfoam. The viaduct alone has over 20,000 bricks, each one individually made, stuck on, painted, grouted and weathered. I've made videos on how I did that.

[RTHounds]

I'm never going to get anything done on my layout as I'm always watching progress on this one!

[beemoe]

this should be fun and interesting to follow as has been the river scene. great!

[skittlesrozanski]

i am truly jealous, your rasp works much better then mine.

[jbrunsonjr]

I'm excited to see how this new seen will turn out! I have been living vicariously through you while I am doing the apartment thing for a while. Oh, and tomorrow I will post some cool videos I took of an awesome train excursion I took - feel free to check them out on my other channel named "JacktasticJr"! Keep up the awesome work!!

[absinthedaze]

great, love to see this layout come alive!

[BALD8BIL]

GREAT VIDEO MAN

[SaberTanker22]

them mountains you done almost look like cotton candy lol.

[XxGOfastaStripexX]

hey im looking forword to seeing the progress on this :) you are verry talented in terrain makeing :P i personaly dont use trains but i use wargameing :) would it be okay if you could make a vid on your set up? tnx :)

[retrainrun]

You have a l ot of track and a lot of tunnels. When you run you'r trains,can you run more than two by youself and if so ,can you keep track of tem? Anyway exellent job! I love all that music gear you have by your layout.

[jimeronimo]

Hey E!

I already love it with all the thick foam sheets..The vid series you did way back when on carving the foam mountainside was some of my favorite work you ever did. Really learned alot from that.

What an unbelievable layout that's going to be when it's done...Can't wait to see all the progress vids on the rock(foam) work again... Are you going to paint and dress it up the way it is or are you going to add the rock castings again in some places?

[montecarlo712]

i just cant believe the river is PRACTICALLY done...!

on to bigger things!

[crubba]

gonna be good, evert! your tripod creaking (i presume it's your tripod!) is really annoying!

[psychodelicdragon]

how many years do you think it will take to finish it, start to end?

looks excellent as always!!

[thebige61]

@psychodelicdragon Lol. I have no idea.

[thewizard99]

@thebige61 sometimes thats a good thing, as sticking to a deadline for something you enjoy is a bit stressful. or i think it is anyway

[thetreeregimovies]

@psychodelicdragon You're never "Truly" Finished with a Model railroad. There is always ideas to think of. :)

[tom9ification]

that's nice, very good, only subscribed yesterday. will watch more vids today, but what gauge are you using?

[thebige61]

@tom9ification N scale

[railroading29]

[railroading29]
