Finally someone is actually running a museum train on a layout with the train doing a run around People never run a museum train with an operation like strasburg

@austinstrains2001 Жыл бұрын

I'm considering adding a branch line to this layout at some point to possibly run point to point like Strasburg. Still working out the details!

Love the layout running would love to get a full overhead view of the layout to see if I can make it or close to it in my O-gauge tracks. :)

Next time I get the chance to do an operating session with him, I'll be sure to do a better overview of the layout!

I still have the 4 by 8 HO scale layout that was my last one before my eyes got worse and I moved into O gauge trains. I sold the Rolling Stock and buildings to the train store so they could be recycled into other people's model railroads but they didn't want the table took too much room I said it was free but they did not have room to put it anywhere someone on a train video advise me to get ahold of the local Model Railroad Club and that they would see that it got a new home. In 2 days they're coming to get it I will be happy that someone will be able to use it because I put so much work into it.

You could've just put it on your roof straped it down

@austinstrains2001 Жыл бұрын

If my Jeep had a roof rack, maybe. I also wasn't sure of what kind of weather I might have been getting into on my way home closer to my area, and I would not have had help unloading it the next morning. There were a fair number of factors, but I feel like transporting it in two pieces did less harm than trying to strap it to the roof. Either way, it'll all work out!
