Model railroad video: Building the HO scale Virginian Ry. part 17
More great instructional material to a good looking layout.
Another good video episode. Thanks for going into great detail on how the ground cover is laid down. What is the difference between the white glue and the scenic cement? I was under the assumption you used one or the other.
Realy great “stuff” and I hope i will be able to get all episodes. It seems perfect for a new person just starting.
Loverly!
This introduced some new products to me that I will be seeking in the future. Great job!
"nother great episode! Thank you for giving the product numbers of the scenery products used - that makes it easier for me to obtain some of the stuff that I want to use on my layout.
David you just get better and better in your production value of these spots. Are you guys possibly considering petting out on dvd and sd cards the complete series after all installments have been done? Maybe re-edit them a bit adding a little footage cut out the original releases here, to make them more attractive for purchase? might not be a bad idea sir… and as always keep up the splendid work, and keeping all of us entertained every week, thanks. Guy
You make it look so easy to create a fantastic layout. All of you have that “artistic eye” which adds to the realism. I wish
I had your patience!
I’d like to know what is is the first aid box shown early in the clip. Spare springs for Kadee couplers??
Keep up the good work, I learn something new all the time.
Picking up loose ground foam, ballast materials, talus and other scenery materials with a vacuum is a good idea. But it’s a better idea to insert the toe portion from a pair of lady’s nylons to actually capture the material for use on another day. With the price of hobby materials these days, simply throwing away the excess is too costly.
It is wonderful to see the masters at work and making everything look so easy. I am very impressed.
Thanks!!!
Does anyone know how to convert Peco Electro Frig turnouts to Insul Frog?
Nice look for the green area by the station.
Good tips, if nothing else when I watch these videos it gets me up my caboose and do something, anything on my BD&O layout. Kudos to your videographer(s) for shooting train scenes at track level, gives it much more realism. Well done.
Great work David, all the books in world cant beat a ten minute video. regards David.
Lots of good information, what chance is there that you will do a story on the plans used for the buildings on the layout? This is a feature that has almost dissappered from the MRR stories. Nice video series, every one should be learning a lot from them. Thanks!
Learn something from every video, good job.
These videos just keep getting better and better. I certainly learn a lot about how to make my layout look better. The techniques and materials introduced have raised the level of my scenery work. Thanks David.
