You have what I would consider to be my “dream layout.” Always happy to see your photos and videos.

J 611, Thanks. Since you are in the Trackers, you must be local. Have you ever been to any of my open houses? We're going to have a final run, for this area at least, in January.

Light turnout at the club last Saturday with guys in York, but Richard brought his MTH Aero-Train in PRR livery and M10,000 to run:

Nice Randy.  Is this a club layout or your own ? 🤔

Here’s a video of two of my passenger trains on an elevated layout hung from the ceiling newly installed in a private club. It utilized MTH Realtrax with 2 double bridges. Bed is hung using black pipe and wood decorated to appear as wrought iron beams. O-72 and O-82 curves.  The C&O Streamlined Hudson is a Lionel engine converted to Protosound 3.0 and coreless motor. Passenger cars are from the Chessie M1 coal powered turbine I used to have. The PRR 4-4-4-4 T-1 Duplex is MTH with matching passenger cars.

Here is a 2nd video with a Dreyfuss 20th Century Limited Williams Brass Masterpiece converted to Protosound 3.0 with Lionel Heavyweight polar express cars.

This Forum is really something. 🙄

Always seems to be something unique......at least to me.

This is not only a one of a kind ceiling track layout but it is in itself a piece of art.  Really nicely done .   Really nice passenger trains.

Thanks for the compliment, but, I was commenting on Yardman's photo in which a scale Blue Comet appeared.

Used my childhood 675 to pull the Polar Express cars I borrowed from a couple of club members at the Military Aviation Museum show in Virginia Beach (Pungo) on Friday morning -- I didn't have a good Christmas train to run, otherwise.

And the big event, Santa flies in courtesy of a vintage Navy bi-plane.

Your photos are filled with classic post-war memories. Thanks for sharing this.

The Pennsy had one 10-6 sleeper that matched the other cars on the CB&Q/D&RGW/WP California Zephyr for through service between San Fransisco and New York City via Chicago.  The Pennsy picked up this car in Chicago and took it to NYC.  It was the Silver Rapids:

The Silver Rapids is K-Line, the others are either GGD or K-Line.

Canadian National passenger train running at the TCA Ft. Pitt Division train meet on Sunday, November 28, at the Shriner's Center in Cheswick, PA.  This is running on the Ft. Pitt Hi Railers layout.

Here`s my baby blue comet 263e Engine, Tender, & 600 series Pullman cars!

I guess it's a passenger train ( young believing passengers ) !??!

Passing by Judy's newest yarn structure , front of Santa's Factory .

I've had the Lionel MPC Southern Crescent set for a while but never had the correct tender. Finally found a separate tender and it just arrived.

Dallas, seems you're in the spirit of the season...great looking layout!  The upper level track adds so much character to a layout...if I the juice to build an addition on my layout this winter, after seeing your layout here, I'll most definitely have a track headed up to the high country...

Postwar Lionel repainted P.R.R. K4 pulling 027 P.R.R. Passenger cars, missing 1 car still in the hunt.

SANTA FE running late.

Premier F7s

Dallas. The Santa Fe units are the units I wanted so bad when I was a kid in the 50s. Never got them though. Got some now 50 years later and it brings back so many memories. Beautiful set.

These are Raphael's Amtrak and Doug's PE trains running on our club's traveling layout in the freight room of a restored C&O station in Newport News VA this past week-end.

And this is Murf's C&O "Yellow Belly" and C&O heavyweights:

This is a beautiful set - who made the cars please?

These posts are very nice. Now a question. How do I post a video? Especially with my iPhone? I would like to post something myself.
