  • That is an outstanding garden railroad layout! I am just beginning to a small one-loop railroad and I know how much work (and money) is involved. Your layout seems to go on forever - is that all one loop or is any of it a double-track mainine? I saw your Alco engine on another track so I was curious if it was a separate block or if you are running DCC. How do you maintain track within the pipes? How did you build curved track sections within the pipe?

  • @inneedofgrace1

    The layout has been many years in the making to get it to this point. It is setup so I can run it as two seperate tracks or as one large layout. I am not using DCC just a plain old 0-18 v, 10w transformer. Upgrading that needs to be my next investment. Glad you liked it.

  • 1:17 looks to be an Erie Lackawanna RS-3. I LOVE THAT POWER. I myself am a G-gauger in New Jersey, and all of the equipment in this video looks very "local" to me.

  • This is by far the best done layout of its size I have ever seen . Well done !!

  • Oh man this is crazy cool. Rob and Anne, Id spend a summer vacation at your house and never get bored as long as you let me play with your trains. and Im in my 40s

  • Haha that was great!! Such a cute little railroad!! Makes me want to build one in my backyard! What happens when it rains tho?

  • Very impressive! I liked how the track was all connected and the train went on all the track through so many tunnels.  Very well done!
