Running Some Trains On The NYC&C HO Scale Model Railroad - Part 1
NYC and C Model RR
September 23, 2026
Running 4 trains on the NYC&C Railroad. It's 6 minutes long (sorry) despite limiting it to just outside surface tracks (no underground shots or much in the way of elevated video).
Also note: as always, the layout is a work-in-progress, so unlike still shots or limited video, in something like this you get to see the good, the bad, and the ugly.
There are some limited areas that are complete . . . but for the most part, there's a lot of partially done and temporary placements. However, you get to see trains run! Enjoy!
Part 2 - In The Cab
The last video ran some trains while I walked around and made a video.
This video is Part 2 to the other video and has allowed us to join the motorman in the cab for a special run along the tracks.
The motorman's name is Tom.
In the video we leave the station, enter line 3 of the main lines, which is part underground, part surface, and part elevated.
A complete circuit of the line at about 35 mph takes about 3 minutes.
Be sure to thank Frank when you exit.
