Updated November 9,2015-My 6x9' layout build

Enjoyed the video, and hope there will be more. Great job with the scenery also.

Nice Video!  I like your buildings and LionChief Plus locos.

Thanks Henry. As a New York Central guy living along the Hudson River I'm a big fan of Hudsons.

 

Thanks Josef, I will certainly do more photos and videos as I make progress.

 

Thanks Ken.I really like LC+ and Railking. They are perfect for my small layout.

Joe, thank you for doing the video and posting it.  I think you did a great job!  You spoke clearly and were easy to understand.  Most folks here would say that after seeing your video, they wanna go work on their trains.  And that a smaller layout (like mine is too), looks just fine.  Love the camouflaging of the transformer with trees.  Love the idea of a the small lake you were thinking of, next to the tracks.  Great job all around.

Thanks IC. Doing narrated videos is difficult for me. It's hard to remember to speak slowly and to not forget what I wanted to say. I really enjoy layout videos. I've learned a lot and gotten ideas for my layout from videos that others have posted, plus it's almost as good as actually visiting. 

 

Thanks for the input on the lake. I think that is what I'm going to do there. It will give a little variety from the town that fills most of the layout. I'll post pictures and videos as I make progress.

Nice video, Joe. Like the layout.

Thanks Ralph.

I took some pictures tonight by setting the timer on my camera and placing it on the layout in places where I wouldn't otherwise be able to take a picture. It gives a different perspective. I like the results.

Awesome pictures, Joe!  Great to see the progress.  Impressive :-)

Great photos Joe!

Thanks for posting!

Hi Joe

 

First , thanks for sharing your Layout with us. Second, Great Layout !

 

Quick ? Are you going to buy the Lionel Lionchief + Rs-3 in NYC markings ?

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks guys.

 

There are a few locos I'm considering for my next purchase and the LC+ NYC RS-3 is one of them.

Fun looking little layout! Proof you don't need a huge space for enjoyment

 

Thanks Andrew. No, you don't need a big space for a fun layout though I really would love to have a large basement to build the layout of my dreams.

Excellent work with the camera! It is almost like you are walking down those streets watching the people.

I like the pizzeria. Is it a kit?

Sean

 

Thanks Sean. It does give the feeling of being an O scale person.

 

The pizzeria is an MTH Railking building, Wisguys Pizza. All my buildings are Railking except the K Line milk platform.

Thanks Joe,

I will check the MTH product finder for the pizzeria.

Nice small lay-out, shows what can be done in a small space.

Thanks for the video.

I did some work on the layout yesterday. I added a sign to the warehouse to officially make it a Coca Cola warehouse. I also paved the lot in front of it and painted the road. The gray pad in the picture is where a street light will go. I also painted the base of the trees green so they blend in (they were white) and added a worker to the freight platform. I have more that I started but I'm not done yet so I will update when ready.

Thanks redball342. I wish I had more room but I'm having a lot of fun with this layout. A small layout is way better than no layout.
