50:37 I love those Trader Joe’s Triple Ginger Snaps!! This has to be one of the more ideal videos on scenery. This is definitely going to be my crutch for building scenery. The Boston accent is an added bonus too!

That was a much larger project than I thought it would be. I'm thrilled to see this level of effort in restoration. It's so worth it. Hopefully the finished project is highly successful, receives public recognition, and sparks support for more restorations. Thanks for great video!

Super 🙏

Nice work this took a lot of planning.

One of the GOATS

Normally around yet right around but wothin a quarter mile? I agree it seems like it to others? Or? Reality, that's right. It is tgis time as far as I can tell! It's really respectful to have Landscaped so Flatteringly. Only Model Train Guy's can see! I'm sure of it! Thank's for "tossing the ball...."

I like your thoughts about "fish snorkel ear," like if I'm "hungup" around bedtime and if its "9" and if it hasn't been 2sec without and if its the rotary or if its above or the dogs that bark at in 3 directions at all and "those" are you with Cy's Brigade in Purple Heart or Just Upper Class? This gets a guy a break with "squared away" a Pork Roast would too, but That's just for us not Commrade. Remind "Rookies" to pay SR-bit. Every minute is a Social a Complex. Make sure you eat in front of Marvin too! Put too many on your plate and keep the rest for Leftovers. Like Genius its 2 times! Haha! Good Rocks! Remember its foam and acrylic so you don't Chip a Tooth! A Tooth?

Were you talking about BBQ Sauce when you started the plaster sheets? Appleberry or woodberry not spiced, I agree it is or isnt but not both. God! Famous Dave's is almost there nowadays!

How to coin a time and go....better than them Coen Brother's Movie fonts that they dope!

Model Train Folks are the only one's besides Me that Can See Really Good. You can tell these days, especially on the road! They See Best or Better! Great Detail! And when the trains elephant bump down the Turnpike, you can be sure!

I learnt a lot from this Mr. Frary, many thanks for uploading this and sharing your skills and knowledge. Best wishes! Adam (Weymouth, UK)

Where can I find the acrylic furniture varnish or a good brand name. Ty

Yes I like your set too. The only problem I have now is they sell a bunch of little things that you can buy by them selfs. Other then that I have no problems with the tools. I do have some odd tools. But most of my tools are craftsman and sk. I know what you mean girl. They last for ever& ever !!!!!❤❤❤❤

I made my own great mountains out of rolled up chunks of newspaper rolled them all up little masking tape to tape my shape together and then plaster cloth butter being butter boom... To me a lot easier and buying all them cardboard strips to each his own right .

Oh my gosh! Very talented with great ideas for my grandson’s Lego train. 👍

I'm about a third of the way through and so far there's some great content but the constant whistling is annoying enough for me to consider not watching the rest of the video.

Lots of great info. Thanks for sharing

A National Treasure! This video should be saved by the Smithsonian for all time!

stopped listening to you when you used a scotch lock, i hope you have turned your life around

This is an excellent tutorial. Thank you very much.

Great module, thanks for sharing your abilities and techniques ! And speaking of abilities, I think Bob Ross would’ve been proud of that background!

Thank you for showing these improvements. Wish I had watched this before I put mine together 👍

Excellent tutorial. I'm new to model railroading and this is an informative and easy to follow video that has been a great help: Showing what tools and materials to use and how to use them in a clear, understandable way. A great big thank you!!

As a Louisiana native and have lived in Baton Rouge twice in my life, I can comment on La cane growing. Sugar cane is grown in rows similar to corn. It is planted and cultivated in a 4-year span. During harvesting the field was burned which does not harm the sugar stalk or sugar content. The plants were cut with machetes a few inches above the ground. The stalks were loaded onto wagons and taken to a reload where the stalks were transferred to rail cars or highway trailers for the trip to the mill where the stalks were unloaded, crushed for the juice, and the juice was processed into raw sugar. Each field is grown for 3 years then plowed up and left to fallow or rest for a year before being replanted. The cane will sprout from the stubs for the next year's crop. In the early years, there were many plantation lines that used portable track panels in the fields and more or less permanent tracks to bring the cane to the mill. Raw or brown sugar was then shipped by a common carrier to a refinery for bleaching and grinding. Most of these lines were 3-foot gauge with a few using 2-foot gauge or 30-inch gauge. Because of many very serious accidents on the state highways from decrepit trucks and trailers, their use was outlawed around the 1990s, and the accident numbers dropped while the sides of the highways were not as fouled with strewn cane falling off the trucks. This time of harvest is called a "campaign" from late September into January because once started it does not stop. Because most of the land used for cane production is low-lying, it is also very flat with low ditches along the sides. Check out "Down Among the Sugar Cane" if you can find a copy. The LSU extension service has devised machinery to plant and harvest cane without having to burn the fields. Another good book about sugar cane railroads is the one about Hawaii's railroads.

Great upgrades!!! Building mine now!

Jim, I loved your video and am sharing it with the other model railroaders here on Kauai, Hawaii. It has some good techniques we can use in modeling Hawaiian sugar cane plantations & operations. The Grove Farm Museum here on Kauai still has a large collection of steam locomotives used in sugar plantation work. Although not specifically mentioned in your video, a couple of the historic sugar mill photos in the video look an awful lot like a couple of specific mills here in Hawaii? Tom Knapp

I want to use 1/8” rubber mat as a rail bed. It is ok?

This guy still around ?

I love your videos Dave! Nice job. A shame that this one's resolution is only 480p. The information is top though!

Grasias por enseñar era mi duda 🎉

Queensland in Australia has really cool sugar cane locomotives (now diesel) that are narrow-gauge. Rolling stock includes sugar cane wagons, open wagons, vans, open-air coaches and radio-controlled brake wagons. Franna cranes are used to lift derailed engines and wagons.

Outstanding 👍

conduct, nice move.🤔

Thanks for sharing your improvements.

I've seen people use toilet paper instead of plaster clothe.

Wow that was almost 2hrs. And I watched the whole thing!

Fantastic tutorial video ... thank you.

He has become John Allen times 10.. Simply amazing. I have built two of his early kits.

Three dimensional art that moves. Up to two years ago this was one of my hobbies also.

Hey Dave, just wondering the past 2 years i been searching for some wet water how do you get yours

I wish I had seen this before I built a model of one.

Oh my Gosh! I just realized I have your book from 1989! I made my first rock, and mountain from your book. You're a legend in modeling scenery. Thanks for all the wonderful years of building!

Hi well what can I say about this video. But "WOW". FANTASTIC. I am new to this train/building scene and I really 100%+ loved this video and all tips , tricks & building . To all you guyz thankyou...thankyou. Cheerz for now. Denise W.A.

One thing I've found works real well( and I've seen very few people do) for carving styrofoam to make the edges and faces look more irregular and thus more realistic. Is to simply drag a drywall saw along the faces because drywall saws ( especially old well used ones) have teeth of different sizes etc so it makes a more irregular rocky face

Santa Cruz doesn't have a hobby shop since 2015 and on .

Hi again I don't even have any cork bed under my track .I have a HO train layout scene 2004 .

Yea but I have no foam however the track is Nailed down on my plywood so how do I scenery?Hi I'm Jerry from Santa Cruz ca.

this guys the bob ross of scenery building
