A very nice piece of terraforming Julian 👍 Well planned and executed. Looking forward to the next instalment.

Superb example of modelling.

Looking really good mate the gives it some height and different levels great video thankyou

This is a great channel, I love the way you discuss and explain your chain of thoughts in great detail. The new section is starting to come together really well now. Thanks for sharing as usual.

Nice work Looking great Nick Australia

Really nice work Julian! Clever use of everyday materials to great effect! 😎 One slight amendment I was going to recommend if I may 🙄 Behind the engine shed, the ground slopes directly onto the back of the building. I would suggest that a more realistic build would be an upright or slightly leaning retaining wall up to the street level (ie creating a wall following the side of the road) which would then have a perpendicular strengthening wall that would come out at an angle and slope down to meet the access road. That is about as best as I can describe what I mean and I hope it makes sense. That way you create an area behind the shed for things like rubbish storage, spare or failed parts, barrels, or whatever used to be left laying around 🤷🏻‍♂️ I am not too hot on software but if you like I can try to cobble a pic and send it, lol! 😄 Cheers fella, always great to get an update 👍🍀🍻

Great idea - it's looking good

I’m enjoying watching this come together

Great Julian, obviously a man of vision. Cheers.

Great video.

Nice video Julian. It was interesting to hear your thought process behind the scenery and good to actually see you making the hill. Best wishes. Mark in the UK.

Great progress and vision. Coming along nicely. Thanks for sharing. Roy.

Great video Julian. We are well set up here in Perth, WA and the layout is starting to take shape. Coincidentally I was just looking at the Bunnings website here in Perth for the extruded foam you are using. Hopefully they wont be fazing it out as I need a fair bit, and it looks very easy to use and cut, without making a huge mess everywhere! Model shops here aren't too bad, an excellent second hand one in Maylands, a suburb of Perth, who are happy to purchase all of my excess second hand rolling stock - they offer an excellent repair shop too, which is handy!

For lift out panels that polystyrene is invaluable, I just still have a few pieces left over from my days of constructing thermal concrete panels, at the time I thought it would come in handy and sure has, great vision Julian, many thanks

Nice video Julian the church is going to look great once the scenery is added.- Nicholas.

Loved watching you carve the foam - almost like carving butter. Very well done

Hi from Garth Close from South Africa cool

Very interesting way of creating a hill in foam , great job

Going to look great when you’ve finished that area Julian.

It's interesting to hear your thought process with regard to the scenery, I like the way you have made all the different elements and areas flow together, it looks natural.

Very nice work. Thanks for sharing and stay safe. Cheers - Larry.

Looking cool Julian and the service road and extending the bridge into the back drop will look great too. Take care - Kevin

good vid keep up the vids

Hi Julian, you certainly have been very busy and I'm guessing there is still a lot more to do...love what you have done so far and I will look forward to the next episode Cheers Greg

If at anytime you get stuck for inspiration then can I suggest you watch “Don Coffey” on KZfaq and his video “Wakefield to Knowsley Binliner” during the course of the video you will see every single type of bridge that has ever been constructed over a railway it is a stunning film which shows of the very best of the Pennine Railway has to offer As for your latest video update just “brilliant” really well produced & edited thank you for taking the time to post

Hi Julian. If you ever need a new career, you could always be a scultor! Nice work on the hill.

First time on the channel, I will definitely be subscribing. Love the way you detail the thought process of how you will mold the hill into the layout. Where do you find your buildings at?

Hi Julian, greetings from a Brit living in Austria. I am modelling a very similar church scene on my n gauge layout (church on a hill and tracks / roads surrounding) and wonder how you dealt with the problem of the location of the graveyard.
