I made a short video commemorating the 10th anniversary of my O Scale model railroad. It includes some special guest appearances.

Exquisite modeling on the entire layout, equipment, et al. Superb job.

The video was entertaining!

Congratulations

You are a talented modeler and have a great layout. Great video. The talking historical characters reminded me of the old Space Angel cartoons that I watched in the sixties.

May you enjoy many years of modeling!

Regards,

Chuck

Nice work for a Yankee...

Great job, Bernie!

I've always been fan of your modelling the "War of Northern Aggression" the way you do, which is very well done and authentic to a degree you don't often see in pre-1900 modelling. You model the best representation of the real thing, not a cartoon version of it.

Great smoke effects on the video, too!

Have you ever considered...

...for an op session, having all the crews and clerks make authentic outfits to what they wore back then on the Railroad?

A combined Op Session/Reenactment?!?!? I could bring the Confederates!   (Just kidding, I can't reenact anymore as my health doesn't allow it).

Awesome presentation Bernie - Congrats on the decade! The backdrops and figures really pull of the size of great rolling hills in a small space.

Excellent and Creative Video

That was great!  Wish more folks would aim for the under 5 minute length also.  Very entertaining and the right length.  Congratulations on 10 years as well!

Amazing work, Bernie. The

Amazing work, Bernie. The layout is museum quality. Love to be able to see it in person some day. Now that your layout's been around twice as long a the real line, what's next for the basement wizardry to tackle?
