A visit to Bruce Friedman's CSX HO Scale Model Railroad based on the route from Philadelphia, PA to Baltimore, MD. It's a multi-level walk around design, using DCC (Digital Command Control), the signals just as the prototype (aka the real thing) are operated via a computer program and by a dispatcher when they have an operating session, which is a simulation of prototype practices moving the trains over the road, picking up and setting out cars along the route, there are staging yards that trains are set up on to move over the railroad. The trackage is code 70 and 83, which is based on the actual weight of the rail based on how much it weighs per yard, the turnouts (which allow changing routes from one track to another) are based on #6 and #8 specifications, so that means the degree of curvature is what determines whether the turnout is #4, 5, 8, 10 or 12, they go as high as #20's and #30's for high speed operations and even greater. The layout requires 70 locomotives to operate during the ops sessions, also there are a total of 700 cars to fulfill the operations. The layout is based on current operations, folks from all walks of life are into the hobby and t attend Bruce's sessions to operate the layout, railroaders who really run trains either as conductors or engineers, and a great deal of military folks who are stationed in the area or visit the area, and some law enforcement as well. Why model railroading? Well you can simulate what you seen as a kid, things that are <b>...</b>

This video series, hosted by Michael Gross, will teach you the simple how-to workshop techniques you need to know to take an HO scale electric train set and make it a scenic model railroad. Well show you how to build a 4x8 model train table (benchwork) from plywood, lay sections of track, create easy realistic scenery using foam and paint, assemble model buildings, and wire your layout with a DC power pack. When youre done, youll have a railroad that operates well and looks real. Our techniques would work in N, O, S, G, or Z scale also. This video is scene 7, Scenery part 1 how-to. For more information and a free booklet with more tips visit greatesthobby.com. The Worlds Greatest Hobby program is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting the fun, relaxing, and fascinating hobby of model railroading.

This is my current HO scale model railroad project: The Weber Canyon. The layout is set in the west end of the Evanston Subdivision which ends in Ogden, Utah. This layout represents about 4 miles of double track that travels up and down the canyon. Visit my website for more photos of this layout at www.thesolutionfarm.com. Custom layout building inquiries welcome. Thanks for checking it out.

Norman Stenzel's HO layout is located in Atlanta GA. The layout fills a 2000 square foot basement and is based on a fictional railroad, the Brandywine & Benedictine. More info on layout can be found here: www.piedmont-div.org Brief Overview: The Brandywine & Benedictine Railroad is a Class 1 Appalachian coal hauler modeled in 1953. It runs north and south from Winston Salem, NC to Pittsburgh, PA. Motive power is a 50/50 mix of steam and first generation diesel power. The railroad is designed with prototype operations in mind with jobs to keep 12 to 16 people busy. The B&B is controlled using Digitrax DCC and a computer running RR&CO software. Layout owner is Norman Stenzel. This layout is located in Atlanta GA. My visit: I and 5 members of the Orlando N-trak club (from Orlando FL) were invited to run on this layout during the Dixie Rail 2010 ops session held October 1 - 3. We visited this layout on Saturday Oct 2nd. Extra Note: At 03:13 The crossing gates sounds are actually coming from the model. The passing train steam audio and freight car audio was dubbed from recordings I made at Cass WV and from a NS freight in Atlanta GA. Extra Note 2: The crossing gates on the layout can be activiated or deactivated by the push button or by sensing the approaching train. All footage recorded by Jared Davis (C) of Whistlepost Productions.

A sequence of images showing the building of the model railway inside my coffee table. It's Eishindo T Gauge track, around 3mm wide. There's about 7 metres of track inside the table, or more than 3km scale distance. The trains run on 4.5V DC and the landscape is built from XPS foam and modroc.

Loosely based on the old Scottish Railnetwork, this project started off incorporating Western Stations but this labour of love over the years whilst still ongoing and forever changing as you can see how spread across Scotland, but always........Scotland. This layout is built in the old servants quarters of Dad's House and takes up the top floor. I keep telling him if he's not careful, it might spread "Underground" and downstairs to the next floor, well Glasgow does have an "Upper" and a "Lower" ;-) Hope you enjoy watching if you're a Model Railway fan like Dad, or even if you've just happened to come across this vid by accident.

In this exclusive how-to scenery video from Model Railroader magazine, MR managing editor David Popp shows you a simple, proven technique for adding realistic waves to poured resin model water. David uses Woodland Scenics Water Effects to create his waves. The river is on the Model Railroader HO scale club layout, the Milwaukee, Racine & Troy, but David's method would work on N, O, S, or even Z scale layouts as well.

Visit: www.miniatur-wunderland.com Miniatur Wunderland From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Miniatur Wunderland (German for miniature wonderland) is a model railway attraction in Hamburg, Germany and the largest of its kind in the world. As of January 2011, the railway consists of 12000 metres (39370 ft) of track in HO scale, divided into seven sections: Harz, the fictitious city of Knuffingen, the Alps and Austria, Hamburg, America, Scandinavia, and Switzerland. Of the 6400 square metres (68889 sq ft) of floorspace, the model takes 1150 m2 (12378 sq ft). By 2020, the exhibit is expected to have reached its final construction phase, including at least a total of ten sections in a model area of over 2300 m2 (24757 sq ft). The next section covering an airport opened in May 2011. The exhibit includes 890 trains made up of over 11000 carriages, 300000 lights, 215000 trees, and 200000 human figurines. The creators are planning to work on models of Italy and France after the airport section is completed. Possible future additions include Africa, England, or a futuristic landscape.
