Last video of my layout before dismantle.

This was such a great layout with details everywhere. Cesar, you are very talented. Thanks for sharing this great layout and I have high hopes for the new one. I'm sure even if it is smaller it will be something special! 

Here are some pics I took last April:

Hi Cesar / Wow / Enjoyed watching your last run.  After you move to your new home, you may want to consider building a shelf layout.  There are several articles in all the model train magazines. An excellent reference book would be;

"SHELF LAYOUTS FOR MODEL RAILROADS" by Iain Rice Model Railroad Books, Kalmbach Publishing.  Below is a quick look at my layout.

for more details see; O Gauge Railroading Magazine, Run 278 June / July 2015 • Pages 48 - 53. "Multiple Levels in the Man Cave"

Thanks for the video and sharing your great layout. Absolutely inspiring. Can't wait to see  your next adventure.

Thanks for the video sorry it has to come down but every new lay-out is better because we learn from our builds. Will be thrilled to see the next one.

Cesar, I feel your pain. It is always a sad day when a layout has to come down, especially one as nice as yours. Thanks for preserving the memories. Good luck with the move. looking forward to following your rebuild topic (hint hint).

Cesar,  thanks so much for this terrific video of your amazing layout!  I'm so thankful that I was able to see it a couple of years ago and thanks for your hospitality.  The detail, the structures, and the overall effect of this one makes it one of the best. Glad you're going to rebuild, albeit smaller but we have no doubt that it to will be excellent.

Hope the move goes smoothly sir

I had the pleasure of your hospitality during previous York's and a visit to your layout was always a highlight of my trip. You are a great ambassador to the hobby. If you are still in the York area I hope you can continue your open house visits with the new and improved train room. Wish you the best!

Cesar, thank you for sharing this video with us.  Great layout.  I feel your pain as I am about to start deconstructing my layout.  Best of luck with the new one.

At 52, my rebuild is also much slower...  I also is hard to downsize a layout.  When you have one that you love and have to move and go smaller, its really hard to get inspired and it restarted.

I hope you do as your talent is wonderful and get all you want in that smaller size.

Beautiful layout. Wish you luck on the downsize. Can't wait to see the beginning of the new layout.

Good (new house) and bad (dismantling work) to hear this Caesar, and I can relate as I am nearly completion of dismantle of my layout for a move into a new build house.

What did you decide to keep and what to throw out?  I tried to keep all my structures and some yards that I had the track down on, but ended up pulling up most of the gargraves as moving sections was not worth the effort.

I burned alot of the wood from the layout so it wouldn't fill up a landfill.
