Model Trains - Making Roads for HO scale
มุมมอง 2414 ปีที่แล้ว
HO scale model train layout. I used Foamboards and Cardboard from carton boxes as the main materials. Also need a white color Gel pen - size 10 which gives a 1 mm thick marker lines. Used a flex curve (about $6) to make the curvy lines smooth. Real Black acrylic paint was used for road shoulders. I thought this method was easy. I am very pleased with the results. Please feel free to comment or ...
Model Trains - Home Made Turntable V1 and Testing
มุมมอง 3.1K4 ปีที่แล้ว
There is a much improved design of the turntable that I posted in January 2021. Here is the link th-cam.com/video/POmIAUSZEz0/w-d-xo.html This is a HO scale home made turntable for my layout. Diameter is 10 inches because that is all I could fit. But It is good for all my Locos except one. No attention was given to Aesthetics. I am already working on newer version. Aesthetics will be taken into...
HO Model Trains Running Session - Hannawa Railways
มุมมอง 2204 ปีที่แล้ว
HO scale layout. Size 9 x 5 ft. Landscaping in still in progress. But tracks are almost done. The track current can be changed between DC and DCC. First we run a train on DC. Then we will run multiple trains using DCC.
Fantastic creative work, unable to think it is not real. carry on your great work, our blessings for it.
This is such an incredible video! The attention to detail in the Rio Grande Train Set running on the track and the creative camera angles really bring it to life. The story adds so much charm and depth, making it a joy to watch. Great work capturing the magic!
Looks great!
Pooji, you have a nice collection of Model Railway Engines and accessories. Have you tried to build a model of the famous Demodara Loop. Lalith Salgado
Lalith, Thanks for the comments . Last year I received 3 Locomotives , all three as Gifts. As for Demodara loop, I had quite a few requests. But to make the Demodara loop I need much space. I am in HO scale, If I am doing in N scale I will have enough space in garage, but not in HO scale. As a kid I wanted to build a model of Maradana Station with overhead bridge and roads above with the cinema Halls etc. It is not practical with the space available to me
@@batapola8405 You answered the next question I was going to ask! I was interested to know the Gauges used in Model Train sets. Since you mentioned HO and N scales, I searched the Internet and found few other scales, G, O, Z etc
very nicely done. Very well explained with a lots of details.
This looks great!
Fantastic l didn’t know you had such an elaborate display of model trains l enjoyed the video very much what a wonderful hobby you have wish you and yours happy and healthy 2025. I am so glad to make friends with you
There is a mistake in labelling. My Apologies . The station labelled as Kandy station is in fact Peradeniya station. I don't think I am allowed to correct it after posting. please see the video I posted 3 years ago. th-cam.com/video/K56HMJvsn08/w-d-xo.html In particular at 2.40 min mark when You can see Peradeniya clearly. Many Thanks to Anura for the point
Fantastic video of the model trains with realistic background! Much better with three trains. Thanks for uploading.
Thanks for the comments . The station labelled as Kandy is in fact Peradeniya. See my correction posted below
Very nice. Meticulously done. There is a Moratuwa station. Where is Peradeniya station?
Anura, Oops ,Thanks for pointing that out. I have made a mistake in labelling. My Apologies . The station labelled as Kandy station is in fact Peradeniya station. I don't think I am allowed to correct it after posting. please see the video I posted 3 years ago. th-cam.com/video/K56HMJvsn08/w-d-xo.html In particular at 2.40 min mark when You can see Peradeniya clearly. Many Thanks for the point
This is great! Very nicely done! And would like to see a view from the engine in the next video
Thanks for the comments . I have taken many videos from the engine - called cab view. I bought a camera just for the that . Unfortunately the mp4 files created by that camera doesn't get loaded to my editor. I have talked to experts. They have not been able to resolve the problem yet.
Enjoyed watching the video. Very well done Model Railway Network.
Thanks for the comments . The station labelled as Kandy is in fact Peradeniya. See my correction posted below
Nice creation, with a lot of details. Good luck for future products.

Happy to see you back in action. Signal system seems to work perfectly. Well done Pooji.
Thank You Lalith
You have a cool layout
Just Keep up the good work And Keep on ModelRailroading.

That's a pretty firm and reliable dezine! Id also recommend 3d printing the signal posts if you can
Thank you Hamilton. Sorry for being so late to respond
@@dumriya8220 it's cool man, life makes you buissy to simply put it
Great video
Thank you Mike
Looks amazing with signal lights working.
thanks Nimal
Poojitha and Kyoko, This is really wonderful work. I love Kyoko’s painting skills. She gave it a life. With backdrops and without really tells you whole deferent story. This is really hard work. Finished product is excellent. We’ll see it next time when we visit you.
Thank you both , so much. More improvements are expected soon. Example - signal systems, more vegetation etc. etc.
Wow ! I cant imagine all the work that you must have put into that. Kyoko's artistic talent is amazing !
Thanks a lot Machan.
Wow, amazing work and art. I didn't know Kyoko was an artist. Enjoyed watching it.
Wow just amazing pooji. Kyoko , super art work.
Great work Pooji and Kyoko. Will see this running next time we visit you.
Wow! Beautiful paintings, Kyoko. 👌
Impressive! 👍👍👍
Nice new upload found it very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much. Appreciate your comments
@@batapola8405 Great and thanks very much for replying to my comment. I have a new video out now. Hope you like and share.
Brilliant ! very well done, very well presented. The backdrop brought life to the model as if it was real. Artist made that 2D plasterboard as if it is a 3D mountain terrain with true clouds moving on the sky. A great piece of work combining arts and science skills.
Thank you very much. Appreciate your comments
Good job Pooji. Backdrop has created a natural look for the set up.
Thanks Lalith
Great !! Well done by both of youuu !! Very nice video and the superb hobby !! Thank you for sharing !!
Thanks Machan
Nice video
Wow ! We cant imagine all the work that must have put into that. Kyoko's artistic talent is amazing.
Fantastico.........Parabéns...!!!
Thank you
Excellent piece of work!
Hey mate this was especially interesting for me because my dad is originally from Ceylon (burgher) and often talks about this station, he was local to it due to growing up in Kandy. He has memories of the steam trains that ran there and also the diesels. Wasn’t expecting to stumble across the topic whilst searching for DIY turntable videos! I have subscribed cheers
Mark, sorry for the late reply as I did not check this channel often lately. But I am working everyday to improve my layout. Are you in Australia ? In the late 60's and 70's many burghers migrated to Australia from Ceylon. Dav Whatmore is one of them. Yes I am originally from Ceylon (Sri lanka), Sinhalese, but now settled in USA. If you need more info on my work , let me know. Thanks for your comments.
Nostalgic
Thank you
Excellant. Looks very real.
Thanks
Great Job Pooji. Lot of effort has gone into your work. Well Done.
thanks
Well Done Pooji. Continuous Improvement !!
Thanks Lalith
Great job Pooji ! - Raj.
Thanks
This is advanced. I noticed that the surrounding has also got upgrades. It looks real now. I would love to see those two-train drama here in this improved track and surrounding.
Lalith, your observations are correct. surrounding has been improved a lot since the last one. You can see some tracks are ballasted now. Hopefully I can do more improved drama in the future. Thanks for your comments
Good job, I would like to build one myself. The kits on the market are to expensive.
Thank you. Since the original posting I completely redesigned and built a new turn table. New one works much better. I did not have time to make a new video because I am busy doing many other parts of the layout. Hope to have the new video in a month. It will explain in more detail how I did.
Prof. Yapa, This seems to required an extraordinary amount of time but at the same time, it seems all worthy. The lay out is nicely coming together. I am excited to see the final one.
Yes, Lalith it takes a lot of time. Reasons: 1) I am doing it for the 1st time; 2) What you see is the final product that is successful after some different attempts; 3) I experiment with different material to see which one works best- also keeping the cost in mind. For example I did not have any idea that simple carton box cardboard will work. So I dwelled on it for weeks. Now in hindsight, I did not need foamboard. I could have done the whole thing with cardboard. Nevertheless, I enjoy doing this and it also helps to keep multiple skills intact (without letting them degrade). Thanks for your comments
Good job Pooji. Very interesting.
Thanks Lalith
Looking great Pooji. Thanks for the explanation on how you are building it. What are you using to get the water effect on the lake? Cheers. Lakshman
Thanks Lakshman, for water I used "realistic water" you can buy from many places. It is about $20 for a 16 oz bottle. I found it easy to use because it does not need any mixing - just pour and self leveling.
Well done Pujitha. Brilliant work. Congratulations and best wishes for the future. Cheers. Jayampath
Thanks Jayampath. Best wishes to you as well
Really interesting video. Well done mate !! Any special reason to name it as "Hannawa Railways" ?
we lived in a town called Hannawa Falls for 23 years. There was a lake in front of our home (only 150 m walk), the roads going there had some mild bends too.
Good work, it’s working flawlessly 👌
Thanks Kathiresan
