Wow, would love to turn a piece of this into a Free-moN module. Really nice work on Clio Trestle, Keddie Wye, North Fork bridge and many more. Wish it was closer to CA.
Thanks for posting the video John.

Group;
I have operated on the layout many times and can fully attest that it is a fantastic layout that runs as good as it looks. As to shipping, the layout has traveled with Mark as he moved for various positions around the country and clearly, positively, was built to move. Take west coast entirely cross country to Atlanta as an example.

Buying this layout could give someone a magazine quality layout - in a few months.

Kind regards,
Bill

What's the asking price, not that I can afford it, but very curious.

  Mark called me once he knew that his new house was going to be built and was switching to HO scale. He didn't tell me a price, but what I got from what he said, it will be very reasonable.

I am sure that all the N scale locos and cars will be available - as well as Mark is moving to HO - so there is an opportunity to buy a great layout - fully populated!

Kind regards,
Bill

I can say it was multiple signature scenes from the old layout that he brought to Atlanta and build new connecting pieces in his new space.  If you have a decent, not necessarly huge space I am sure you can do the same.  I must say he did all the balasting and it is beautiful .

David is absolutely right. Signature scenes abound and connecting them is a lot less work than building those signature scenes. As David proffered, it is also a very quick way to have the layout up and running quickly.
Kind regards,
