Layout Rehabilitation and Operations

Well one New Years resolution of mine was getting my layout back up and running, which I did just a day after New Years. All track is redone and wired in, I am still working on switch machines and then into the signaling system which I hope to get complete this time. The track plan is mostly double track with a section of single track, in hopes to bring back the Fast Lane operations again. A diagram of the track will be up in another video. I also need to put together some pictures of the trackwork. Enjoy!

Layout is looking good man, You sure have quite a collection of new stock and power! They layout will look really good once those signals start lighting up!

@Conrailed Thanks Jon, the collection sure has grown in the last year or so, thanks to full time and a Christmas bonus. I plan to get them signals lit up soon.

hey, my coal train looks pretty good. I'll be over this weekend if you're around.

@Tcaauwe2002 I will be here, just get ahold of me, that last block of track is now wired too, so now that just leaves that yard to be built.

Lovin' the old power. (Chessie & Seaboard) Awesome layout!!

@DouglasP201 Thanks, I tend to model everything and not one particular era, that way I can run what I want, plus I don't just like one particular railroad either so it would be hard for me to model just one, LOL.

it sure looks cool

@railroading29 Thanks, it used to be just the bridge sections themselves mounted onto wood and that lifted up, like a big bescule bridge, but I wanted to use my deck trusses this time so I made the whole section open up, it is a bit heavier but not to bad to operate.

nice layout man.....i like how you built your bridge/ lift up section.....clever ideal
