Great job Robert. Once again your video is a very informative tutorial. That station building is really nice. Did you scratch build it or is it a kit? If so who makes it?
@summitrailway6 сағат бұрын
I bought the building of eBay. The guy told me that he promised the manufacturer not to tell anybody who has build this scratch build model. So long story short he in deed didn´t tell me. But you can get a similar model from the german manufacturer "Große Modelle". They are very nicely build but also very expensive.

@summitrailway6 сағат бұрын
Hi! The water tower as well as the signal house is made by pola G. The signal house was discontinued many years ago so you need some luck to find it on eBay. As of today there is no way getting it new. The station Building is also of eBay. I wasn´t able to get any information who might have build it. Loco shed and freight house are from "Große Modelle". I hope this helps you out!

@summitrailway6 сағат бұрын
That´s unfortunate. I am glad you like my layout so far! Building a layout outside has always some challenges, regardless of where it is. Some have strong winters with frost, some have wild live and others strong winds to deal with. But that makes this hobby fun, it´s like a real railway and on top of that you get all four seasons.

If it wasn´t for the track occupation system I would have installed only one or two feeders for the whole layout but like it is, I had to have one feeder for each individual track and switch to make the system work.

I am really enjoying the progress. I think the lighting in the buildings always is one of those little things that makes it look real. We always expect buildings to have lights at night, and on a model, it makes us believe there are people in there who've turned on the lights. ;-) I wonder if you will paint the buildings so they don't look so plastic. Will you be painting them and weathering them a bit? Looking forward to seeing it in the evening when lights are on at the buildings and the lamp posts on the platforms, with some figures there waiting for the trains, and workers over in the Stellwerk, and freight house. Thanks for the updates!
@summitrailway5 күн бұрын
Hi! Thank´s for your nice words. Regarding the weathering I can only say ... it´s a garden railroad, nature will take care of weathering sooner or later. The freight house sits outside for several months at this point and it already looks totally weathered. Figures will be the last step to finish up the layout, there is a lot to be done until the figures will get placed but they will come eventually.

Its looking really good. I am suprised there wasn't a form of location pegs on the roof top of the water tower. The upper section may need some weight to stay on in winter winds as it seems just to sit on the base unit. This is what I am asuming from only seeing things from the video. Possibly some of the gravel would add some weight and prevent it lifting like the lunar module if the wind decides to try its worst.
@summitrailway6 сағат бұрын
Yeah, I would have expected some sort of location pegs as well but now it is glued in place and won´t move anyway. The top section is pretty secure on the lower half. The pipe which is holding the whole tower upright is also holding the top kind of in pace. The wind would need to lift it up vertically to get up and over the pipe, thats highly unlikely in my opinion. But you never know, your concern might be right.

Giving them an epoxy coating may help... Kind of epoxy paint they use on boat or two components paint. Other option would be to pour concrete in a mold but that's more work... Other option could be to drill holes in an outdoor thick terrace tile... or replace the wood after a few years if needed.
@summitrailway6 сағат бұрын
Your concern is partially right. It is wood in the ground and it will rot eventually. This kind of plywood is used for trailer floors and so on, it is very water resistant in itself. But more importantly is the fact that the "ground", in my case the track ballast has a very good drainage and won´t have standing water or moisture for a long period of time. This will extend the live of the plywood many years. I guess it will hold up 6 to 10 years.

Hello there! Ich habe deinen Kanal abonniert und alle deiner Episoden mit Spannung verfolgt. Ich möchte hier einmal ein großes Kompliment aussprechen. Eine solche Hingabe bei der Planung und bei der Umsetzung, der Gestaltung bis hin zu kleinsten Details, aber vor allem die handwerklichen Fertigkeiten in allen Bereichen ist herausragend. Scheinbar beherrschst und vereinst du alle notwendigen Arbeitsschritte in professioneller Weise. Leider haben wir keinen Garten, aber in unserer großen Wohnung, oder besser gesagt, in meiner Man's Cave, kann ich mich im Format N auf knapp 8m² austoben. Darum schaue ich viele KZfaq Beiträge zum Thema Modellbau und sammle Inspirationen für meine Gleisplanung und Umsetzung. Überflüssig zu sagen, dass im Kreis fahrende Züge nicht mein Ding sind. Also noch einmal Danke für deine vielen schönen Episoden und Anregungen. Herzliche Grüße Lothar

I love how you’re actually made the track go through the engine shed. Whereas before it wasn’t made to do so, I just love how you’ve shaped it to travel through the structure! I’m so impressed with your design style and how you improvise your work with your railway! I used to have a small G-scale railway and was sadly abandoned after my grandfather left it behind after he moved out of his house. He sold all of his trains and everything that he owned that was there; so for me seeing your videos of building your railway, really inspires me to make my own. I am only 28 and live with an Autism and a learning disability, so I can’t really make myself a railway myself because of the lack of knowledge and experience to do it. Not to forget that I also live in apartment complex with a back garden that is also rented… so I can’t really make myself a living Railway. So seeing this just makes me so excited and happy to see this evolving ever closer to being completed
