Joe Luciani’s O gauge Luciani Transcon
Clean layout, wonderful trains. The helper engines are a great touch.
Wow! Great layout! Love the helpers. Super job of it.
Very nice, especially clean and great to watch!
Awesome! Why can’t we see more O gauge videos on MRVideo subscription? Better yet, how about a CTVideo subscription?
Wonderful video and the layout itself looks superb! I really like the trackwork and the very broad curves. The backdrop behind the hills really makes the scene look real. I like the use of those helper engines as well. Bo

One day my little English Cottage will morf into a US basement, so i can give up 027, just jelous, nice layout Joe.
Great job Joe. Where did you get your beautiful stone walls for the elevated track they look really good!
To Steve Woodland.
The stone walls were made from a product called Masonry Walls obtained from Scenic Express. 1-800-234-9995. I glued the photografic reproductive sheets to back of 1/8" masonite paneling, the front face is what is show in several pictures. I first cut the paneling to match the section I was working on. I used small brads to attach the panel to the frame work. I used an end plastic cap molding from Home Depot to simulate a concrete cap beam on top of the wall. This was painted with an acrylic concrete paint.
///////a most spectacular layout with great scenery and the modern equipment and operation are fantastic. The inclusion of the long trains and helpers in all is as modern as you can get. Thanks for showing it.
