That is awesome! I love that roundhouse or turntable.The steam locomotive is great and the old building with the “Carillon”sign on the wall! I love weathered old buildings!

There are two things that strike me about this train set:
A] Much thought was put into the layout. It looks like a real town. Some hobbyists just throw cheap looking buildings that don’t go with each other all over their layouts, but not this layout. It looks real. In fact, this layout is so realistic that it looks museum quality.
B] The trains have a dusty weathered look that makes them look more realistic. Trains are supposed to be dirty, not have a clean, shining, out of the box look.

@vespaT27 He says right at the start that its a model of the railroad from 1954. Graffiti really wasn’t such a problem back then…

I originally saw this layout in Model Railroader and I knew I wanted to visit it one day. I love the concept and the period, as well as the RR. Great job!

This video is a lie. Those trains are clearly fake.

Quite a nice layout. I had dreams of building an HO railroad layout when my dad got our first HO train back in the late 80′s. Now that I’ve got half a basement to work with, I may just work on it little by little. Sure it’s fun when it’s complete, but the real fun is using your imagination and ideas and watching your layout grow to your liking.

@jeepers2655 That drive-in theater idea is awesome! You should get some pictures or a video of his layout.

Your model buildings, esp. the church, are great. Are they all scratch built?

The 18 dislikes are only jealous cause they may not play with it.
