Great stuff Bob (as always) 

It still amazes me how fast you built that layout. Thumbs Up Drinks

And the guy (Kevin) that interviewed you from Arnies?, I bought a 2-6-0 from him last summer. Big Smile

Bob,

That is a great layout you have built.  I love the trestle bridge waterfall scene, I have something like that planned for new  S gauge layout.

Thanks for the kind words. As far as how fast I was able to build the layout, you must remember that many of the structures were salvaged from my previous layout. In addition, I prebuilt many of the new structures and surrounding scenery (dioramas) many years prior to the actual start of this one. 

Have Fun.... Bob.

Great work Bob,

As a W.P. lover and freelancer, I love what you have done.

The signature piece on my layout is the Honeymoon Tunnels and even there I have taken a few liberties.

Really enjoyed the Vid.
