Here's a brand new video of my 1/24th scale, In-ko-pah Railroad. I think it's my best video of the RR to date! I've tried to shoot and edit this in the style of a professional railfan video, depicting a day on the In-ko-pah Railroad. You'll see my Bachmann/BBT 4-6-0 steam locomotive and my kitbashed narrow gauge RS-3 diesel in action, along with detailed structures and the beautiful, realistic desert scenery I've created.

I'm really excited about how this video turned out!
BTW, there are no "dubbed" sounds. All the locomotive sounds are produced by the Phoenix P9 sound systems installed in the locos.
Edit: Fixed typo
Ray,
Wow! ...a combination of engineering, construction, art, gardening, oh and trains. I could watch it over and over. Thanks for sharing your passion with us.
Regards,
Jonathan
excellent job.
now i guess i have to go out and buy a house with a huge backyard. i want a railroad like that......
I love it!
Fantastic layout. How much entrance fee do you charge visitors? :-)
Thanks guys! I had fun making this video (despite constant interruptions by jets, helicopters, lawnmowers, barking dogs, etc.)
BTW, I don't have a huge yard, the layout fits into an area about 20' x 50', on steep slope.
Also, most of the plants seen in the video are handmade, scale miniatures. There are maybe 6 live plants on the entire layout, and I'll probably end up removing most of them because they aren't close enough to scale and tend to force the rocks apart as they grow. However, there is a bit of native moss growing trackside that I'll keep because it looks just like desert weeds and grasses.

Very,very nice! Love the nighttime scene.

Thats great,I wish I had room and time to build a layout like that, Now it just needs some banjo music just under the loco sounds and it would be perfect.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed it!
