Can I ask what ballast you used?

How do you make it so it spews so much smoke? I run mine at full speed and its barely noticeable .

Bon journo! You say the weathering powder sticks well to the dry ballast and will withstand the “Hoover” and remain in place? It is great not to deal with fixatives, as it obviates the need to clean the rails and avoids that schnitt getting into contact points and gumming up moving parts.

My schools generator has died. Yours works really well.

I have watched loads of track weathering videos and they all seemed like a lot of very hard work! This is genius simple and looks great, well done.

Amazing! I might do this in O scale. Does the powder cause any problems with switch points?

Eddie boi!!!!!!!!!💙💙💙💙

Haha fantastic models

Nice work!.. I seen this ship here in NZ👍🇳🇿

Your a man after my hart, an exquisite weathering tutorial with instant result. And seeing you apply the brown, next to there where the rails are, is 100% correct although I found it a bit to wide spread to the outside, and I explain why. The reason you have this brown right next to the rail, is not corrosion coming of the rail, that's just minimum, but these are iron partikels coming from the break shoes of all rolling stock. Even with new rolling stock with has synthetic break shoes, it still contains iron. And because the break shoes hang more to the inside between rails, makes it more logical, not to go to far to the outside. So a good tip, increase this effect before points and juctions… where a lot of breaking is going on, junctions stations, infant of signals

its alright im just not a fan of the railroad range

Looks good, what track are you using, and what colour did you paint the sleepers? And finally what ballast did you use. Many thanks for reading.

hey! that’s the steam era whistle!

i think that swr should introduce a service from waterloo to barnstaple and okehampton to recreate the ace

Very nice 👍

going by the name of the layout i would assume this is based on launceston?

I've been putting off weathering my track for ages (couldn't be bothered getting the paints out) but now I am looking forward to finishing it, such an obvious method, thanks.

So much fun love the Class 25🎉 Regards Elizabeth

Definitely worth a trip.

Love this place ❤

Personally, I love and praise vintage models like that, if those were still manufactured and sold with modern details at a reasonable price, I’d buy one.

If you have a model railroad/rc car/static model hobby get an airbrush and the world will be a better place for everyone.

Looks good! I got really confused when I read the title as I was trying to convince myself that you would need paint to weather track, as for some reason I always think of paint and weathering powder as the same thing. Don’t ask me why 😂

This is a great idea. Thank You for sharing this as now I know how I'm going to do the ground cover in my Yard. Thank You!

Very Nice!!!

🔝😉🖒

Very nice, thanks for sharing.

What lovely skilled work you've done; seriously impressive, well done!👍

I dont generally like powders but that effect looks very good1

Mainline ballast was often the color shown as the “before” in this video. At least in the northeast US where I grew up. Weathering the track and adding some grim and oil on the center of the ties makes a big difference

Amazing! My ballast is far too clean! Out of interest, what length of track does a pot cover? I'm not sure how many to buy

Just won't watch these videos with music on top. Sorry, but it is too distracting.

Where are the rocks from, nice work

The brown looks like a liquid in the bottle

Perfect! Thank you for an idea!

Looks legit! Would be especially good in yard scenes where cars and locomotives are constantly sitting or going over slowly back and fourth every day!

Please do a video on ballasting - especially at the ThrowBar.

Great idea over trying to use paint 👍🏻

At the end of this video, did you run quickly over the tracks a vacuum or heat gun?

The part between the tracks looks great. But look again at 0:15 and 0:40 -- ballast in the UK is generally granite, which is grey. You don't see all that brown.

Awesome 😎

Wow i was just scrolling and saw your vid i love model trains i subscribed to you amazing vids 😀

Wow...that is cool....

Great tutorial. Straight to the point and on with it, without all the hot air . 👍

Just curious as to why you do not talk while doing this and opt for writing text..... ? It would be much better to hear you talking to us and informing us of what you are doing and why.,

Excellent, just what I need to do to my clean ballast. Why do most of us forget to colour the buffers which are probably made of rails and shouldn't be left PECO plastic black?
