It's rather refreshing to see this period modelled, in O gauge too, large steam locos with long trains of a bye-gone age, wonderful!

I am so miserable and old guy, BUT, not even I can deny the amount of time and effort that is going into this project.  If only I had this skill.

Congratulations Norm, with content
like yours you should be killing it on
Subs!! I'm an HO modeler, specifically Conrail but I love seeing
those those Decapods, Mike's and
especially those PAs roll thru a
scene, being born in 65 I just missed
the end of those PAs, FAs and F units being run on a regular basis!!!

Ive been watching your channel for some time now. The content is great and your work is amazing. 6k subs seems low for the quality you bring to the hobby. Hopefully 10K is right around the corner for you. Happy New Year.

Its like your standing there 60 some years ago. Keep up the great work Norm! Someday I'll have a similar set up!

I never  tire of watching  your  layout.  It's  like  watching  the past  come  alive  again.  Thank  you  for  what  you  contribute  to  this  hobby.

One of the best things about this channel is I can go railfanning any time from any where haha

Art imitating life..

I’ve said this before and will again, your lighting, weathering, background, and attention to the smallest of details, makes your layout second to none. It looks so absolutely real even on my 70” big screen, I would love to see in in person.

Always a pleasure to watch your "running sesh" videos on your beautiful layout. Thanks for another great video.

Outstanding modeling thru and thru!!

Just as beautiful as scene’s  from real life. Honestly I’m glad your layout is in 3 rail o gauge. I need to find that middle rail in your videos to know it’s not real. Also nice to see a diesel locomotive on your layout. Please keep them videos coming.

Beautiful! Hope to see your Hudson again soon :)

A work of art, as always! Happy New Year Norm! Your layout is a trip through time and truly one of a kind.

Another excellent video, Norm! The sound is great too, heard this on headphones and it was even better that way. I think a few of your subs might be from my recommending your work to others. I always pass along the good stuff I find, and this is the finest 3-rail layout I've ever seen on video. I especially love the concrete work around 14:41, that's some of the best modeling for concrete slabs I've ever seen

As a former Pennsy modeler, I eat this stuff up. Your work captures Pennsy in a way that I don't think anyone else's does. If I had it all to start again (and a bigger basement), I'd seriously consider doing 3-rail this way! I'm always excited to see that you've posted another video. Excellent, excellent work!

Congratulations on 6,000 Norm!!! I love the PRR action!

Norm, you layout is simply fantastic! Been watching you for a long time and never get sick of seeing your Pennsy steam. Just great! Would love to see something SP on your layout one of these days

Congratulations Norm. Happy New Year🎉. Your work is fantastic!!!

Happy new year and thank you for sharing all of your videos with us. I’m sure your channel will continue to grow because of all the great work that you do on the layout and on the videos.
