  1. My wife and I are just in the planning stages of of a D & RG layout. Unbelievably this is extremely close to what we’ve been working on. What an inspirational video for us!

  2. I like the lights that are coming from the buildings flashing on and off. How as this done? I have a smaller layout 4’x8′ and doing some work on it like adding some lighting.

  3. A simply gorgeous layout! And excellent execution – the workmanship and attention to detail is simply top shelf. Well done!

  4. I noticed that the track has a lift out to enter the center of the layout. How is it wired? I lived in the Springs for several years and crew one of the balloons on Labour Day.Looks great!

  5. Wire ring that night lighting, must have been a logistical nightmare, it was worth the effort, just amazing. Great job David !

  6. Great layout, so much package into a small space. I love the street scene at the end with all the lights.

  7. What a great layout in such a small space. I live in Colorado and the builder of this layout (David) captured the scenes and spirit of the D&RGW. I must get a copy of the GMR 2020 to learn more. Thanks for the video.
