Best gift you can give YOURSELF for Father’s Day…

Without a doubt…

No questions asked…

It would be to have a Layout Assessment done by the Best of the Best in the Industry!!

Well, WHAT IS A LAYOUT ASSESSMENT and Who does it?? Excellent question, so glad you asked! Mike Reagan, Director of TW TrainWorx East Coast Division, recently completed his third Layout Assessment in North Carolina and what better way to answer the “What is a Layout Assessment?” question than a *Real… Review… from Steven M:

Dorcie

Thank you for initiating your Layout Assessment Program. My layout was fabricated over 15 years ago and I lacked wiring diagrams and most of the wiring was improperly marked and/or terminated.

We’ve been in North Carolina for only 7 months and for the last 2 months after working on the layout I would be totally frustrated.

Mike Reagan was a Godsend in getting my layout fully operational within 1 1/2 days. I’m now able to operate my trains utilizing the Lionel Odyssey or the MTH DCS wi-fi systesms.

My wife and I were very happy having Mike as a house guest and enjoyed learning his knowledge of North Carolina customs.

I would highly recommend Mike and your company to anyone else needing help with their layout. I plan to attend the next York train show in October and look forward to meeting you in person and Mike again.

**York Video that had people stopping in their tracks…

So, what was the strategy for Traindame to attend this year’s Fall York Event solo?? I had a big video screen in the booth, table with FREE popcorn, my photo books and our new Locomotive Service Platform Kit and focused on creating new relationships and loving on the existing client relationships TW TrainWorx is so blessed to nurture.

Check out the video produced by the one and only …. amazing ABC Traingineer crew; Alan Lockwood, Ben Galbraith, and Connor Erickstad that literally had people stopping…. and watching, ENJOY!

Happy Tracks!

Announcing… Live with Traindame!

One of the coolest aspects of being around the incredibly creative, crazy talented, and super skilled Traingineers is being able to see first hand the massive amount of progress that can happen in a week… a day… or heck even in a couple of hours on the studio floor!

So with that in mind, and having my handy dandy iPhone and Facebook *Live* video, I’ve officially started my “Traindame… Live in 5” series and invite you to view my very first episode which features a cool look at the making of the Houston Museum of Natural Science’s Trains Over Texas displays opening November 18, 2016.

Oh… and be on the lookout for a truly behind the scenes, I’m talking – filmed WAY in the back portion of our studio sneak peek look at the 17′ Pecos River Bridge : )

Enjoy!

Happy Tracks!

Traindame & Traingineers Traveling Adventures continue…

Spring may be winding down but Traindame and the Traingineer’s traveling schedule is just getting warmed up!

This past weekend I joined Chief Traingineer, Roger Farkash, to check in, talk trains and break bread with three of our dear custom layout clients…

First stop – Huntsville, Texas where we found Don MacCormack focused on enhancements to his layout in preparation for a Layout Tour Bus full of ‘Train Nuts’ from the Houston TCA National Conventional who will have the pleasure to experience Don’s custom layout, Wednesday June 22nd. Roger assisted with some scenic landscaping and poured water to a creek underneath the Erie bridge – I had some fun and video taped the lesson : ) Please feel free to watch instructional video on pouring in water here: Making water

Enjoy some photos from our first stop at Don’s:

Next stop was little further down the road to Shenandoah, Texas where Roger added some trees and landscaping for the final touches to Steve Tripp’s custom layout. I love what his wife had to say about Steve since the arrival of his layout last month; “He can’t stand to stay away from his train room, I know where I can find him!”
