Actually, I wish our layout looked as good as yours. Perspective I suppose. We have enjoyed our HO Nostalgia Trip and now building the O scale has its own set of difficulties but we are enjoying it. I watched your video several times, did you get some of Proebsting's buildings? I looked as though you have a fair few scratch built items on your layout as well.

Ray, I didn't recognize your moniker the first time around. I didn't get any of John's buildings or equipment. I have a couple non-descript scratchbuilt buildings, one of which is a scratchbuilt Dallas (WI) depot. I will be at the NMRA national in Milwaukee this week. Will you be there?

Thanks. I wish my layout looked anywhere as good as the La Mesa layout.

@rwundrock Bob, we have decided to not travel to Milwaukee--a number of reasons but it comes down to not spending the money. I know one dealer who told me that the cost is way beyond anything he could get back on his investment so he and other small O scale suppliers are not going either.

I have been enjoying some of your videos. Keep posting.
