This a bad ass layout brother. I've been out of model railroading for a while, and was looking around at some layouts trying to get the feel back and saw yours and I'M BACK ! Very smooth, not a big fan of the unitrak, but thats just me. You did a great job, I would love to see it finished. POST UP.
It is Nickel-Silver. It's really nice but I think it depends on what you're going for. I've seen unitrack used on detailed layouts and it looks ok. If you're a good modeler I think you're better off going with regular track/bedding. Can't beat it for it's ease of clicking together though.
This is great stuff. I'm planning starting an n gauge layout and have been impressed with the kato stuff. How highly would you recomend a starter pack?
Fantastic! I am a fanatic of Kato Unitrack. I like the originality of your video. I really like the Kato structures and the Dennys restaurant you have on your layout. This is totally cool!
there is something that relaxes the mind when you watch model trains. my grandfather was a model railroader and i spent alot of time working on his layout. its where i learned the skills i use today when i build scale rc cars and trucks. the model railroaders were the original masters of scale. really cool layout you got there.
Like your focus and your layout. The hobby is Model Railroading, not just Protypical Model Railroading. I've come to appreciate the hobby for the way one can uniquely mold it ones own desire and outcome.
ho is bigger and n is smaller. N you can make a descent layout with a 5x4 foot styrophome board. With HO you've got to have a spare room or basement to do it in to have a good layout
Now I'm actually jealous. I have N scale and it is mostly kato. This is pretty much how I want my dream kato layout to look in the making. Cool video and awesome layout!!!
Where do you get those working train crossings at 0:49 ?

Kato are the best N scale trains hand down. They are the smotthest trains you'll ever run, and are overall very good!

The starter packs are great. You'll be playing with your trains right away. I like the Kato power supplies. I run 4 of them now.

The starter packs are brilliant! I just purchased an M2 set a week ago, and they are so easy to set up.

Those are made by Kato. Call The Train Shack in Burbank CA. I'm pretty sure they had one last time I went there.
