    This was "the" layout. It is fantastic to see how it was built. Thanks once again, for sharing. So much work was done behind the scenes. Fantastic.

    Thanks for sharing. I always loved videos of this layout on CZcams I wish they still posted on their channel. It is simply amazing. It is nice to see how it was made

    • @TreverAdamo
      @TreverAdamo Před 3 lety

      I think it was a couple years ago when he was selling all the trains he would post the videos on CZcams. He also when doing that turned all the comments off. There’s never been any talk of why he sold everything off other than maybe he didn’t want to put so much work into maintaining it anymore is my guess.

      @@TreverAdamo I think he explained in a video that he didn’t know what all the commotion was about (I don’t think he really understood the size and value of his collection, I don’t know!). He said he was moving to a smaller property and was going to run a smaller layout, so he was selling the bulk of it. I don’t know why, maybe money issues. Usually what gets us all. That or health. But what a layout. I’d give my left nut to have something half as nice.

    Thank you for posting this always knew this was a multi million dollar layout just in what he had and trans alone in this just goes to show that’s absolutely the case. But I have also been curious why he sold everything off and what ended up with the layout after all the trains were sold.

    The cost to remove it was surely more than any of us could afford. It was part of the local garden RR club's open yard tour every year at the holidays and it would draw thousands of people. Then all of a sudden, it wasn't part of the tour any more. And now it's gone. A very strange piece of local history here in Az.
