⭐️In this video, Mike takes you on a tour of an impressive HO-scale layout!
This model railroad train display showcases the talents of members of the Ozarks Model Railroad Association and features operations of the Frisco Railway, Burlington Northern Railroad, and BNSF Railway. The layout has been under construction for at least the last 30 years and is one of the largest model railroad displays in the region.

Today question: How long have you been working on your currently train layout?
My second time helping out happy to meet you there.
HI , enjoyed this video . I'm just north of Joplin in Carl Junction , Mo. I guess I need to make a trip to Springfield .
I have only been in the hobby about 5 months . I am doing N scale , mainly because of lack of room . My layout is 28" X 66" . Am now getting ready to ballast track and start some other scenery . I will enjoy seeing your new layout .
I am modeling Frisco and MKT .
I have been working on my Conrail Philadelphia Division N scale layout since April 2022. It is 4 ft by 7ft. I used Ikea tables for the bench work and work station, worked out excellently.
@@TheMonstertruckerAbout 6 weeks. This is return to a hobby I did as a kid, some 50 years ago. HO...on a 4x8. I'm just getting to learn how to lay track again. Great site!
Glad to see our club getting out there! Thanks for coming and glad you enjoyed
Absolutely…I had a great time! People are enjoying seeing the layout. I’m glad to help show off the club’s hard work! -Mike
Fantastic video Mike! Thanks for coming out and putting this together!
You bet…thanks you, Jonah! You did an awesome job helping tell the story of the club and layout! -Mike
AWESOME, EXCELLENT and PERFECT!!!!! Thank you for sharing and keep up the good work.
Thank you…I appreciate that you tuning in! -Mike
I did the same thing when I moved in. I took the time to install drywall, drop ceiling and vinyl plank flooring before I began erecting bench work.
Hello! It has been tedious at times, but I do enjoy house projects. I’m sure it’ll pay off having a nicer layout room to enjoy for the long haul. -Mike
That is a fantastic layout.
Yes, they did an awesome job on their layout! Thank you for watching! -Mike
Thank you for sharing an amazing train video. Greetings Joe 😊
I appreciate that. Thanks so much for watching, Joe! -Mike
I love seeing the younger generation get involved with model railroading whatever scale they choose. Sadly my collection will not go to my children. They don’t want nothing to do with my trains, and that’s very sad. I have left instructions with my wife to sell off my entire collection should anything happen to me. I am a new subscriber to your channel and look forward to seeing your material. I really enjoyed this video. That club has a beautiful layout and I really enjoyed it. Have a wonderful day. Frank
Hi, Frank! Thank you very much for watching and joining us here on The Main Track. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the video. Both of my kids have been tolerant of my trains over the years. Haha. They’ve always enjoyed going to train shows and taking train trips. But, they certainly didn’t inherit my obsession with the modeling aspect. I haven’t thought far enough ahead about what to do with my collection someday. Lord willing, I have a few more years left before that point. Maybe my boys will end up catching the modeling bug after all! -Mike
@@MainTrackThank you for the response Mike. I really do hope your children get the bug from you. Keep up the great videos and I’ll be watching. Thank you sincerely, Frank
Really beautiful layout that club has - many thanks for sharing! Also made me subscribe to your channel for more stuff like that and to see the progress on your own layout.
Hello! I sure appreciate you joining us. Things are coming along slowly but surely. Thanks for staying tuned…plenty more good stuff to come! -Mike
Great video. Thanks for sharing. Love American locos and layouts. Liked and Subbed! Cheers, Andy
I sure appreciate that! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, and it's great to have you join us. As you saw, we are in an in-between phase as I get ready to build the new layout. I'll have a lot of new videos coming out soon! -Mike
@@MainTrack Cant wait! Cheers, Andy
A beautiful layout very well presented. Great video.
Hello! Thank you…I appreciate you watching. I agree- they did a great job on this layout! -Mike
Thank you for sharing Mike. Great presentation. Looking forward to seeing.progress on your layout.
I appreciate you watching! I’ve been at work behind the scene on planning everything out. I will look forward to sharing what I come up with! -Mike
Glad to know they are in Springfield my next visit, I’ll swing in Mike!
Hi, Devin! It’s a pretty awesome bunch of guys (perhaps there are some ladies, too)! I’ve wanted to join the club over the years. But, being the TV station owns me during the weeknight evenings, I would never be able to make it to club meetings. Visiting events like this are always great. I’m sure they’d love to see you! Hopefully I’ll have some semblance of a layout up by then, too! -Mike
Thanks Mike for another video
You bet…I sure appreciate that! Thanks for stopping in to watch! -Mike
Hey 5:27 that’s me in the red hoodie lol. Awesome video!
Haha…thanks for a being one of the willing stars of the show! It was great seeing everyone. -Mike
I get the tedious part. Right now I'm gluing in ties where the flex track has been connected.
Hello! Yes, those little projects can add up in the way of time and brain power! I am trying some new things with my trackwork this go around. I have found that Peco flextrack is constructed in a way that allows you to push the ties back some- and pull them back into place without disconnecting from the rails. That has helped cut down on how many ties I have to cut out and replace. So far, so good! -Mike
Beautiful layout.
I agree, David…they’ve done a fantastic job on the layout. I appreciate you watching! -Mike
Really nice layout and commentary. It also will be nice to watch the progress on your new layout.
Hello! Thank you for watching! I’ve been at work behind the scenes planning everything out. I’m excited to narrow down some plans and share them with everyone- and finally get to work! -Mike
Excellent video. Good to see so many young ones involved
I need to make a trip over to Springfield at some point and check out this club.
On another note, if youre rolling new paint on the walls, you can save some time later buy painting sky blue now. Thats what I did with my new building.
Thank you! It was a fun afternoon. I always work evening hours when they normally meet- otherwise I’d love to join them. I had a decent sky blue color on the previous version of the layout, but I may shoot for something even a little lighter. I plan on making and using some photo backdrops this time around. So, I’ll probably have to play around with different shades to see what best matches those for the overall background.
Wish jefferson city had some great clubs. Anyways, thanks for sharing and can't wait to see how your basement comes along
Thanks for watching, Tom! What would the closest club be to Jeff City? I was part of one in Sedalia when I was a kid. But, that was in the early 90s and I’m not sure what became of it. -Mike
Great video Mike!
I sure appreciate that! I always enjoy our train layout field trips! -Mike
Enjoyed this, thanks for sharing
Hi Mark! Thank you. I’m glad you liked the video. They’ve done a great job on their layout! -Mike
Great video! Really enjoy your content Mike!
Hello! I sure appreciate the kind words. Thanks for stopping in to watch! -Mike
Been working on my Layout since 2011, enjoy the video.
Thank you, I appreciate you watching! 2011…hard to believe that was already 13 years ago! Haha.
Dear Mike me and my brother are a big fan of you so please tell when did mkt have gp40 trains and how much trains did mkt have when it was running
Hi, Zack! I sure appreciate you guys watching! Yes, the Katy had 61 GP40s on its roster over the years- according to the details I have. That’s quite a few! The Katy had more GP40s than any other diesel make/model.
