I am here in Omaha for the Annual Berkshire Hathaway Shareholder's Meeting which opens to the public today at noon.

I am happy to say the TW TrainWorx custom, BNSF Layout is installed in the BNSF Booth and the Lionel trains are now R U N N I N G smoothly as advertised!

BNSF is just one of the companies owned by Berkshire and Warren Buffett himself has said on several occasions to both Roger and I... this layout is a MASTERPIECE : )

Dorcie, have your folks, or anybody else, thought of doing a commercial video of the display - layout and backdrop?  We own a tiny bit of BH stock and get the invite to attend and would love to do so, but from what I have researched, you need to plan a year in advance to get a hotel room in Omaha!

Hi Peter,

That'd be entirely up to the BNSF folks it's their Layout in their booth - we're the hired hands at this event.

Any chance you can display this layout at York?

That would be entirely up to BNSF : ) However, we do store this beauty at TW TrainWorx and pull it out on the studio floor to share with all our Annual Layout Festival Attendees. 

Save the Date... Saturday, April 7, 2018 - TW TrainWorx 6th Annual Layout Festival!

Happy Tracks!

My pleasure!

Check out Warren with a Lionel Legacy Controller IN HIS HANDS!! Roger took this shot this morning where Warren and press spent 20 minutes in front of the BNSF Corporate Layout : )

Great way to kick off the 2017 Berkshire Hathaway Shareholder's Meeting going on all day today...

I did say he likes his trains, didn't I?

Fabulous layout!  I especially like the constantly changing backdrop.  This is the first time that I have ever seen this done on any model railroad display.  It makes the display truly unique.

 How long , wide and high is the layout?  I am just curious.  It certainly gives the feel of the modern BNSF.

My first cross country train trip was on the Great Northern's Empire Builder from Seattle to Chicago.  I have always loved the GN orange and green colors.  I was lucky to take another trip from LA to Chicago on the Santa Fe's El Captain.  This gives me a special affection for the BNSF railroad.

I wish that I had some BH stock so that I would be invited to see the layout and could afford the trip.  Thank you for invitation to Texas but I don't think that trip is on my schedule.
