M2FM Video - Tom Sulivan presents his On30 version of Kingfield, ME and other layout updates
Tom has been building an On30 version of the SR&RL. His most recent effort is Kingfield on the Franklin and Megantic (F&M) branch. Tom describes how he fit Kingfield into the scene. Tom had been planning to double deck his layout to add Kingfield, but in the end choose a a simpler attempt to expand into the other side of the garage. Follow this link to see Tom's original plan for adding Kingfield: sn2modeler.com/2020/12/06/tom-sullivans-on30-srrl-upper-deck-kdr-again/
There are many books on the SR&RL that go into depth about Kingfield, but if you just want to see the prototype track layout, it is available as an image on this page: sn2modeler.com/2012/04/26/prototype-tackplan-sn2-kdr-part-2-prototype-and-modeling-information/
Additionally, Tom circles updates on other scenes around his layout. He's accomplished quite a lot in 4 years.

How has Jeff's locomotive project progressed?
Jeff has many projects. He likes the engineering. It’s not clear if or when AMA loco will be t taken to conclusion.
I have really enjoyed listening and watching the videos you have so graciously posted. Thank you so much for sharing. How was the March Convention? Haven't heard anything nor seen any videos taken.
I'm working on a build of the Carrabasset depot in it's as built look with the board siding, pre-clapboard. I drafted the structure and did a quick photoshop cardstock model with full color. Alas I come to the interior and need to figure what interior walls there would be. Presently I just have a full length platform and otherwise open interior. I know the chimney was right behind that window and was probably some sort of loft or second floor. Any ideas would be welcome. Thanks in advance
Очень красиво!!!👋👋👋
FIY: the font of the "ERIE" inside the diamond on the standard gauge boxcar is post 1941. Before 1941 the font looked like this: www.rr-fallenflags.org/el/frt/erie78500adb.jpg
Outstanding modeling Dan. Steam engines with snow scenes in Strong are great. i will be interested in your process for building and modifying the Atlas turn table. Following along on your website . Thank you David for video.
Thanks for hosting and posting, Dave.
Can Pete do a clinic on the shorting of the #3? If he wants I can send him a Bachmann Forney to show how it's done.
Hi, Can we get Pete's presentation posted on the group site? It is really great.
Sorry, there is no site for these zooms. So nowhere to post.
Great discussion Gary and David. Great input from Chris McChesney as well. It must have been a great time traveling with you guys back in the 1970's!
Thank you David and Gary for a great presentation. I missed the live presentation but love these after works. David, do you have additional presentations that you have not posted? I am also interested in your Sn2 modeling works.
Thank you, very inspiring.
Really well done model, makes a very unique model!
Thanks for uploading. Love that you showed the operation of Pete's layout!
Thanks for uploading. Love Pete's layout!
Agreed : Much thanx for uploading as you have a great Layout. However; your commentary is at times difficult to decipher as you are sitting in an * Echo-Chamber; * to the point that I have called it quits in trying to go through from start to finish; having to break my viewing into tolerable sections. This also proves that it is not a once-off during the duration of your upload .... What a pity ! 😔
Thank you, very interesting information.
Thanks for uploading!
Great model! Just a couple of notes based on the comments in the video. Yes, they are difficult to steer but it’s due to the very low geared steering. As we like to say “steer early, steer often” the tracks and roller chains are adjustable for tension and wear. Yes, there is a differential. A pinion gear on the crankshaft drives a large ring gear. Spider gears transfer drive to the sprocket shafts. The drawing set you used from the Maine Forest & Logging Museum were drawn by the late Bill Lynch. Bill spent over 20 years working to restore the Lombard we have at the Maine Forest & Logging Museum. Sadly he passed away before it’s first steam-up in 2014. The live steam model was built by Chris Rubey and was the subject of a lengthy build series in “Live Steam” magazine. We currently have two steam powered Lombard log haulers in operating condition at the Maine Forest & Logging Museum. Your welcome to stop in and check them out anytime.
I stumbled across this video and the other one of Gary"s presentation. He mentions other presentations are there other videos or Information pertaining to these and where could they be found to read or view ? Enjoyed this very much .
What is here on my CZcams account is what I know. Gary has a couple new sons planned. Check back.
Nice one! You need to come to the Division 8 in Louisville and set-up. Next show is November 2023.
I presume your referring to this: www.div8-mcr-nmra.org/site/html/trainshow.html. For me the proximity is not bad, I'll consider it. It is a lot of work for a 5 hour show. Maybe I could bring a smaller set of my modules. A subset of HAVOCRR would also be of consideration.
Nice little world you've re-created here. Fantastic attention to detail.
I'm glad you liked it, but Doug deserves the accolades
Very realistic.
It took me a few moments to notice that the equipment is actually standard gauge dressed up to look as though it's narrow gauge but it's very very well done and I absolutely understand as to why he did it since true HOn3 equipment is both difficult and costly to get your hands on. I really enjoyed this video since I'm thinking of doing pretty much the same thing but in N scale with a freelanced road of my own.
video production could use a bit of work but a lovely layout!
The club I was in had the privilege to visit this layout the same day we visited the Blissfield club several years ago. I got a real kick out of the partial turntable pit. Hey, why not? What really hit me though is how many structures were the "old" ones I remembered liking as a kid and never got. Looking closer at them I realized the detail of those older kits really isn't bad at all, and since then have been buying them on eBay.
Incredible layout but I really miss his Conrail Toledo division, much more
I never got to see the Conrail Toledo layout in person. I so wish I'd had the opportunity.
Its good to see Sn2 on CZcams. Hopefully you can make videos of your layout and the modules.
Incredibly Beautiful! 👍👍
Those scene, to backdrop transitions, are excellent! Wow!
Wait illusion being it’s supposed to feel like it’s really there or is it just HO standard gauge trying to be HOn3
All in the eye of the beholder...I saw Colorado & Southern up the clear creek...
No audio
Richard, the initial 1:45 is still images. Most of the remainder is video, with sounds of the locos. There is a portion that follows a train over the Georgetown loop. The sound changes as the loco works harder... How you consider a second viewing.
What impressed me the most was that they colors of the scenery matched the backdrops almost perfectly. Something many layouts fail to achieve.
Exceptional, both the build and the composed camera shots. But, gauge matters, since that would be impossible in o gauge. Im aiming for my first video aug 15, 2022 on my o gauge "the trainboard" channel, very inspired by your work. Gary j
Doug, Are you Bobber Cabooses Scratch Built; or, have you Kit Bashed then somehow?
Mark, Doug is not the creator of the video. To get an answer to your question you'd have to find a way to ask him. While I've met Doug at his house and at others events, I do not have contact with him. Much of his equipment is stock HO standard gauge.
Mark, the video contains one photo showing a center cupola caboose. Likely a Bachmann. My guess is that the end cupola caboose are modified Bachmann.
I forgot a couple items here! One, that the layout is actually simply HO and Two, that Bachmann's HO Bobber Caboose could fairly easily be modified to look like the CS Bobber. Thanks to both of you!
I grew up in Colorado, and Doug has captured the feel of the towns and the landscape beautifully. It's almost as good as going home.
The scenery and backdrops blended perfectly. Love the railroad and it has somewhere to go. Awesome job, enjoyed watching this more than once.
What a beautiful layout
Very good video.
Great layout, but would love to see a video with higher production values to show off the attention to detail and better sound.
The layout is superb and so inspiring
I had the pleasure of operating on this layout during the Black Swamp convention. It is an amazing layout! If you get the chance to see it in person it is most certainly worth the drive.
Great discussion Gary and Co. Really enjoyed it.
Amazing masterpiece and recognizably featuring the famous loop ! And what a scenery, both towns and mountains !
What a beauty. Please hurry up with the video if you haven't already. Thank you.
Is any track plan available? I'm also modeling the C&S Clear Creek Line and looking for ideas on how to fit mine in the space I have.
Model Railroad Planning 2018. Since that plan, Doug added an additional room so forks Creek moved into the new space and he got another town on the lower deck. My video is after he started the addition.
I've never seen a layout that blends in so well with the backdrop photos. And I love the loop, well done.
Incredible work. One of the most beautiful layout i have ever seen. And nice to se C&S..
Agree on both accounts. I've been a C&S fan for a long time.
Wow, no wonder I was confused, kept guessing On30 or HOn30, but neither quite made sense to my eyes. Nery nice is an extreme understatement.
Really nice
