Bill, I always love seeing your layout. Pure toy train enjoyment!

 

Hi Mark,  My current layout is pretty basic with 3 main lines. The layout has TMCC which I bought when it first came out then upgraded to DCS when it came out. Boy time flies, those 2 systems have been out for many, many moons. I don't think  I will upgrade to Legacy since my locomotive buying days are coming to an end, I have way to many now. The layout is 22 x 22 with enough sidings and passing tracks to keep me busy. One of the main lines is set-up for conventional operation through the DCS system so I can run conventional locomotives via the DCS controller. With the older PW locomotives that need a lot of juice to run I can operate them and PS-2 locomotives at the same time on the same track, that always keeps the yardmaster on his toes. The electric trains have been fun over the years, 5 grandkids have had their turn at the controls but unfortunately the electronic gizmos they all play with now have replaced the electric trains as entertainment. My 55 year accumulation of electric trains probably needs to start hitting the secondary market.

Bill, I always love seeing your layout. Pure toy train enjoyment! Do you run TMCC/Legacy/DCS? How about conventional? What are the stats of your layout? Size, how many main lines etc. I would love to see more photos!

Bill,

 What a great looking layout. Thanks so much for sharing. Any step by step advice on how to at least post pictures on the froum. I would love to be able to do this; but have never really tried. Any help or hints you have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Bill! How cool is that?? !!!       Cool     So what now, Sunday Video Fun? Huh?

 

Kev, I am still struggling in posting videos with my current browser. A couple posters on this forum seem to have figured out the correct protocol but I have not yet, maybe they can offer some direction.

I would love to do this but have many questions on using YouTube and just how to do it. Maybe you can post step by step instructions for the rest of us.    Big Smile

Great stuff,
