Operating session on Tom Wilson’s Pittsburgh West Virginia layout
Thank you, very nice. Fun to watch.
Great, thank you I picked up some tips from watching. Hooah
after working in an UK steelworks found this all done very well ,enjoyed the session very much …well done guys
Take it from a guy who lived in Avella when he was a little fella, that one area sure did resemble Avella. We lived along the river on the opposite side of the tracks in the little mining houses. This video brings back some great memories. Thanks for that and good job on the video!
Thank you. The video was great to watch, and you have done some really nice work on the buildings.

Really enjoyed the session. Nice to see ops before the scenery is complete. Reminds me of my mentor in the hobby; I would go for an ops session and look forward to seeing what he had added/completed between sessions.
I love operating sessions. I have had several on my railroad (Shadetree & Nepean), and its fun watching your railroad come to life.
Very nice video.Nice to see finished areas with still some incomplete areas. To say this is the stage I’m in now.
Thank you
Great video, I really enjoyed your operating session.
Seeing the highway bridge with the camping trailer on it the ended in mid-air at the edge of the layout reminded me of the promotion Reg Cordic did on KDKA about the Bridge to Nowhere & his Bridge Leap Contest.
Keep up the great work & I am looking for forward to seeing future sessions posted.

This layout really embodies the philosophy of the “operating” branch of our hobby. It may be a little rough around the edges but it sure looks like fun to work on! The steel mill is especially neat.
Great Layout. Operations look good as is the scenery. I was pleased to see a West Virginia Midland caboose I painted and lettered for my cousin, Jim Glisson, years ago. Jim died a couple years ago so it’s nice to see his railroad lives on.
Nicely laid out. Lots of industry and workable track.
FANTASTIC! THANKS FOR SHARING…HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL OF YOU.
Great to watch… Fun to see the train moving… Thanks
Looks that you guys have a lot of fun, that’s what it’s all about.
Great layout b.t.w.

at the begining of the video it showed your layout with 3 turns there together and in the middle of the turns there was ties missing 2 or 3 at a time why?
Thanks for sharing your video with us
