Nice looking layout. Looking forward to seeing some trains running on it.

GP30M4216 thanks, That is a cool pic. I would have loved to see that in person. It's interesting how there are slight differences in the cantilevers, at least the ones on the right side.

Thanks for sharing these Steamogger. I've gotten in the habit of checking every morning to see what the latest upload is! Really enjoy the old stuff.

Thanks for sharing this! And now I know what FL16 was.

Nice job! Looks like Plymouth looking east toward the diamond to me. (If that signal is for FL16, I'll take him right out at the north end, but he's gonna have to meet 5 southbounds before he gets to McGrew!). 8) Love it! And yes, this is supposed to represent the signal at Plymouth looking east. C...

Here are a few shots of my latest signal install on the layout. The Cantilever bridge is from Alkhem scale models, the signal mast and heads are from show case miniatures, the LED's are from rrcirkits. The dwarf including leds is from Showcase miniatures, the dwarf is yellow on top, red on the botto...

Sounds like its coming along nicely!

Looking forward to your detailed updates!

Wow, that is a really sharp looking locomotive! I might need one of those.

Do you have any photo's? I didn't get any but when I saw Athearn was releasing them it made me wish I was modeling LSRC.

Thanks Struggen,

The layout is about 13x22, mostly just track no scenery at this point. Hoping to get some done this winter including some videos and a layout tour

David, The 2015 has a TCS wow sound decoder. 21pin mounted on a TCS mother board with build in keep alive. It does have a "quill horn", but it's a separate function from the standard horn. I forget what the original function number it was, as I remapped it to function 7. When you press function 7 it...

posted this on youtube awhile ago. But thought I would share it here since I haven't put anything up in a while about the layout. Winter is coming and with it, model railroad season, so hopefully I'll make some progress on the layout soon.

Currently used for signal Department storage, also reporting point for area trades; plumbers, carpenters, electricians. Also contains a mechanic's shop. Is occasionally used for quarterly training classes for M of W. Building is for sale if interested...

Interesting, thanks for the reply's

I was looking at the CSX right of way on google maps and noticed a building on Levan Rd. next to the tracks labeled CSX Transportation. Went to street view and the building does have a CSX sign on it. I was just curious what the building is used for? I guess I thought in general, railroad offices we...

Nice Video, I like when you show the signal indications and more than just a close up of the train passing.

Congrats on your acceptance to Ferris! Looking forward to some layout updates.

Thanks AARR, I was aware of this guys channel but hadn't seen this video for some reason. This is my Favorite era, looks like some good stuff.

Nice report, I enjoyed the caboose shots.

amessmann, Yes! The track/signal arrangments don't really match the prototype, but yes its Plymouth Michigan.
