    Looking good. 👍 Even though your layout is almost an exact copy of my planned layout I have raised the frontal area by around 20mm so that the incline is only 2% and creates a scenic lowland in the centre where the shunting yard is. The main difference with mine is that all the outer tracks rise to the same level as the top station but travel over a viaduct and a Bridge into the top station goes over a canal. My trains can also access the upper level in both directions after going through the reverse loop which it looks like you can't? I have introduced Tillig points and MTB motors to give this option.

    I think this technique is the best way. I have only been able to do the technique without static grass. Eventually I will get/make an applicator and do this where you mix both methods! Fantastic work as is usual!

    • @ThatModelRailwayGuy
      @ThatModelRailwayGuy 14 часов назад

      It does show that static grass isn't the only way to go about adding scenics to a layout. Flock and scatter can work just as well and in some cases is even more desirable in smaller scales where static grass can look oversized. Thanks for watching 😃

    Looking great. Nice to see you trying different techniques. I was wondering how you would scale down your static grass technique. Looks good, however I’m not sure (from how it looked on camera) that the 1mm added much to the effect! Thank you for making the stone walls available in TT… I’ve added them to my shopping list 😊

    • @ThatModelRailwayGuy
      @ThatModelRailwayGuy День назад

      The 1mm acts more as a base to create a more consistent coverage and gives the 2mm fibres a bit of extra height. It's a subtle effect but without it the grass can look a bit patchy. Thanks for watching 😃

  • @asteroidrules
    @asteroidrules День назад

    Interesting scenery techniques. Truth be told I almost exclusively model in O scale but I've been enjoying this series to learn new ways of laying track, ballast, and landscaping. I'm already planning on trying your double-sided tape trick on my layout and I might just try that grass too.

    • @ThatModelRailwayGuy
      @ThatModelRailwayGuy День назад

      Yeah regardless of scale there's always a lot of tip and tricks we can pickup. I see no reason why the double sided tape wouldn't work for O gauge... with static grass you may want to use 2-6mm fibres to account for the scale. Thanks for watching 😃

    • @ThatModelRailwayGuy
      @ThatModelRailwayGuy 2 дня назад

      This isn't a particularly good idea as you need the rocks to be white for the painting technique I demonstrated to work. Otherwise you'll get a flat consistent colouring that looks really unnatural. I've never experienced the rocks chipping on any of the layouts I've built (which are all portable) so I don't know why people seem to think it's a common occurrence. Thanks for watching 😃

    I'm really interested to see this layout progress, for me looking at the track plan with that nice big terminus station, steep inclines, multiple levels of track in a close proximity, the goods yard it all strikes me as quite an city or built up town scape. Something akin to everard junction build but maybe more on the out skirts. So I'm definitely curious to see how you incorporate the rural country to a very busy layout

    • @ThatModelRailwayGuy
      @ThatModelRailwayGuy 2 дня назад

      The plan is to have the left hand side of the layout be more urban with the right hand side featured today being more open countryside. The dividing line so to speak will be the cut through of the reverse loop be we have some plans to blend to two different scenes together. Thanks for watching 😃

    The route runs through a beautiful landscape. Just as a note, it is actually the same stuff as in hospitals. For example, the plaster bandage from the model making company Faller, if you open the brown packaging, you will find the bandage still packed in the hygienic protective packaging from the original Medic company 😅. But they still charge 10 times more for the outer packaging than the original medic product cost🤑. I personally only use the plaster bandage from the pharmacy, it is much cheaper.

    I love diesel because that was my era! My first memory of trains was going to London on the ECML in 1969 on an intercity train that I presume was pulled by a Class 55 Deltic. I remember the train pulling in and the shape of the locomotive but can't specifically claim it was a Class 55. Steam was still in open then but I don't remember a single thing about it apart from the dirty black soot covered train station ceilings!

    Well that was an interesting technique! I've not done any ballasting yet, of normal track or points! However, I've been on the lookout for a simple and effective way of ballasting points, to prevent me from jamming up the mechanism with glue! I must admit that I'd worry about removing the points should they fail, or maybe some water would remove the stickiness? It can also be a hassle getting the rail joiners to mesh first time in N gauge, so I'd be worried about sticking the point down before it was joined to the track! I think I'll have a practice run though before I decide! Cheers for the idea, Ian.

    • @ThatModelRailwayGuy
      @ThatModelRailwayGuy 3 дня назад

      If you really do need to remove the point, you can always try levering it up with a small screwdriver - that's what I did when some of my more tricky installations went a bit awry! For getting the rail joiners in place you could always connect up the next piece of track ahead of time, then press the point down into the tape and fix the track in place as you would normally. Personally though I always tend to use the points as fixed points and once these are in place join the rest of the track up. It's personal preference though but yes a practice run is definitely a good idea with all new techniques. Thanks for watching 😃

    Thanks for all the lovely comments on our layout. It’s really nice to see the concept of a train lost in the landscape being appreciated. Other people have observed that they find it.a little boring because it is, essentially, just a long stretch of single track.

      I wouldn't worry about other people, it's a superb layout! Not every model railway has to have a four track mainline and personally I find single track operations a lot more interesting than lots of trains whizzing around in circles 😅 Best of luck with the build of Minffordd, I've been enjoying seeing the updates! Thanks for watching 😃

      I know what you mean, older Diesels like this do have something to them! Thanks for watching 😃

    Neat stuff!! Class 37 has got to be one of my favorite diesels. Quick question, do you think you can rearrange your Modular Model Railway playlist? It’s rather strange watching it in reverse. Edit: don’t think I’ve ever seen a Class 31 before. Neat little boxy boy.

      Hiya, there should be an option in the playlist to toggle the order of videos. If you like the look of the Class 31 both Accurascale and Bachmann have brand new models of this loco dropping in the next few months! Thanks for watching 😃

    I never tire of hearing the lazy growl of a 37. The class 12 looked good too.

      The series was filmed last year. Some of the other videos have tell-tale signs of when it was filmed too. Thanks for watching 😃
