New Layout Build - Additional details and structures

In today's video I start working through some outstanding details I've been wanting to get around to for a long time. I add some much needed walling behind the tracks in the scrapyard area and finally get some water effects in the drainage pond.
I've got loads of detail projects I've been wanting to do for ages. Now I have more time look out for more videos where existing scenery is added to or improved.

I am not a railway modeller but I can appreciate the skill and attention to detail that Richard brings to his hobby - and to his technical ability to produce videos - very enjoyable to watch, thank you

An extremely relaxing viewing. No problem about waiting for glue to dry, gives time for tea and cake. With all these modern materials and scenic items this side of the hobby becomes really addictive. The water really brought that section alive. Carry on the good work

I am so impressed with your model. I am an ex BR employee ( 1965/2000 ) and drove electric trains on inner suburban london lines and recognise most of everything you have. Its the little bits like the familiar weeds that grow all over or the displaced troughing covers. We always laughed about knowing you were getting nearer to London as the graffitti and rubbish got closer together. Also the extraneous junk laying about near and on the tracks.👍

The Devil is in the Details. I'm not a model railroader but I love watching your vids as they keep me inspired to constantly improve my modeling by paying such close attention to what some might consider inconsequential small detail. The beauty of such details is the life they impart to the project. Outstanding work and a pleasure to see the progress of the model.

@cyberdonblue4413 3 жыл бұрын

The detail is fantastic. It's just a shame that the model vehicle makers can't pay as much attention to detail and provide a simple button to turn off the tail lights when coupling a loco to a train. In the rail industry (in Britain anyway) a tail light indicates "train complete." A very important part of the operating procedure. Signalmen in the old manual boxes would ALWAYS stop a train if the driver had forgotten to turn off the loco tail lights (or the intermediate tail lights on two coupled Units.) For me, as a former footplate man of 30+ years, it spoils not just Richard's layout but the many other splendid layouts on view around KZfaq.
