Now we have two historic BNSF steamers. 1)Great Northern 2-8-0 (color shots) 2)Santa Fe #3781 Northern 4-8-4 (Pictured in Black n White for a little nostalgic realism) To be Continued...

Completed Rail yard addition with only 5.75 added to the long end of our layout. Tight squeeze, but made it work thanks to model railroading layout software Anyrail! Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Here is a glimpse of our overall progress of our 4x7 layout. Notice the images below: 1) Top showing real layout over our original Anyrail software design and layout. This shows the progress from a up top view. We only have the far right thats still under construction. We have the water scene next. 2) We began construction of bridge over water scene in a zoom in closeup.(This will take some time) 3) A real cool timelapse collage of Day to Night scene of our layout. Not Done Yet... the W.I.P. continues with our limited space in the back of our Game Room.... Sorry pool table. Hobby over billiards right now. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Hello All! It's been a while!... Anyone still left in the forum? Here's a late update my son and I posted on YouTube... it's called BNSF Night Run - Model Railroad Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
Lost track of your build for a while there, but it has come a long way. Looks like a great time is being had by you two! Great memories! My boys and I shared similar times that they still talk about occasionally, albeit in N. Had a portable layout we took to shows for fun times running trains around. Looks great!
And the Model Railroader said on to the..."Let There Be People on Thy Layout" And Behold! The Model Railroader was able to finally afford expensive People to work his model railroading hobby into shape! .... Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk
