Great job! You did really awesome job, can tell you are quite serious about your layout. Wish I had you around when I did my layouts back in the late 80's! Great!
Thanks, It took about 8 months to get it up and running. I have since moved to another home and it's now being rebuilt as a single level. I hope to get a new video up soon.
@Crashz9 What was it like moving to a new home and having to tear down the old layout? I guess you can salvage much of the trains, track, and buildings but that wonderful scenery you built! I am building a small N scale trolley layout but I am afraid to get too much invested in it regarding time, money, and emotion. I wonder if I should just go for it and worry about that day when it comes. Thanks for posting.
@BurningtunaDC Wasn't to bad as I have plans for improving it. The layout was built sorta sectional so most of it is still like it was but sitting in my rafters up in my garage. The garden RR has my attention now until my kids move out and then ill take over a room with the N-scale again...just going to be a few more years but it will be going again as I have been collecting in the mean time :-).
as the train roared across the land, they came upon a land without any color!!!! no brown in the mountains, no green in the grass, just white. The passengers inside started to worry. lol thats an awesome layout!!!
I just rode across the continent aboard Superliners a few weeks ago, seeing them on your layout I was imagining myself in the windows looking out at the camera, ha!
I'm HO, but I had no idea N was so detailed! Please tell us what cam did you use and how much was it. Also is real time vid feed to a monitor or store.
yeah it's fun to drive by the video feed. Layout is in my garage and the monitor is in another room. I'm thinking of doing a layout that is for video driving only. Drive trains around from the engineers seat just need to finish the signaling first.
I get most of my video gear from HobbyWireless (dot) com.
You would need to go to your local hobby shop or online store and purchase a DCC system. Its a small chip that plugs into the DCC plug in, inside your locomotive.
Someone please tell me what kind of camera or set up this is. I have n scale too, and would love to have a camera on board... just to see what my empire looks like from the track view. I remember a company made HO scale engines with a camera, but the picture was B&W and not clear. This video in N Scale is pretty clear and in color. Perhaps a website? Anyone? Thanks!
lol n scale is so fucking small the rails are only a few millimetres apart lol its so fucking tiny! i have HO scale its easier to use but takes up more space
OMG that is such a cool layout! I love the scenery and I liked the train drivers view of the layout! But that must be one heck of a small camera since its N scale, what kind of camera is that?
Very Nice, I'm oh so envious. I'll never have a railroad like that, but thanks for sharing the video. At least I can view it whenever I want to see a real model railroad.
Not to bad making it. It's mostly plaster over card board webbing then chalk for ground colors. I have alot more done since the video and when I can I'll post a new one.
Phenomenal n-scale footage, it's just like being on the loco and train, sort of feels like that sometimes on real trackage beings some railroads don't like to maintain their right-of-way, thanks for the vid.
Wow, this is an awesome layout and I love the camera angle. What type of camera did you use to film this video? I've been wanting to get one but haven't heard much about any cameras yet and maybe you could recommend one! Thanks!
YES,'m the first to comment on this video,it's going into my favs! Say you're an amtrak and BNSF FAN? I just recently started liking Amtrak,and say wonna watch my video? Oh,by the way,NICE VIDEO!
great layout man....i love the orange BNSF diesels better than Santa Fe and others.....just look more appealing

I went to a Kato outlet in Japan and it was awesome what they had on display.
You forgot that Tomix isn't bad either....and they have the sweet train cam too.
Sweet layout, but the trackwork needs a bit of work, it's banged out too fast maybe, but the modeling is nice.
Great post.
