A model railroad is never finished, mine isn't anyway - check out the progress and learn from my mistakes as I build a 1970's Brooklyn - Queens themed layout. It's a city worn, tired and covered in graffiti, served by Conrail and leftover New Haven and Penn Central rolling stock.

Muito bom!
Hi I’m interested in adding ambient sound to various areas on my layout. Have you ever done this?
Very nice presentation Doug'.. My sincere condolences on your better half. May she rest in peace. No more pain...
🤠👍🚂💭
What amazing? Layout thank you for sharing it🤠🖐🚂💭
fantastic looking street, levelling up that building was very clever
Aaahh. So you just RIP it out. Clever !! GENIUS almost... who woulda thunk ?
Nice video I like how you show people that you don't have to be perfect and finicky when adding to a layout very inspiring. It would be nice to see your whole layout. Like your models I just wish you had more O Scale for my ON30 layout. It would be nice if you had Kit of the Month for O Scale and more love for us Great and Wonderful Canadians. It was nice to see that your website recognizes Canadians and put the pricing of the models in Canadian prices. Blessings The Evangelist
I just tried it, and really like the results. I now have three ways in my "toolbox" to paint and weather clapboard for really believable results. Thanks so much!
That’s great looking. Thanks for your insight.
NYC subway doesn't have rocks in the tracks when indoors. It's usually 2 rails on top of half a railroad tie each. Which is embedded in the concrete floor.
Great work Sir
you did a great job there
You, sir, are very, very talented! Thanks so much for your awesome content!
Amazing.
Wow... attention to detail. Well done. Looks time consuming.
Great video, thnx!
Beautiful work I’m intrigued an inspirational purpose
Very good post..learned a few things…thank you..
Impressive work and very inspirational.
Just... WOW. How long have you been doing this?
Great video! Thanks for sharing your techniques!
I like your ideas, hope you don't mind me offering a few ideas of my own. If you want to hide your corner on your layout you could possibly do some kind of small intermodal drop off yard. Also depending on how much you want to model with your warehouse what you could of done would be to cut the side of the building off so its flush with the end of the layout and model the inside of the building.
Great video! Your layout has really transformed. The waterfront scenes are awesome and I can’t wait to order some of the details you offer. The pipe and hydrant will definitely be on my next order! Thanks for sharing your work Doug!
whos gonna know about rock movement over time looking at a train model.
I'm interested in using pipes to model water movement from land to river
A gun shop in NYC? No way! Beautiful work, but that choice is definitely fantasy!
Super update, welcome back
Are those the cap47_ weathering jobs?
Your layout looks great! recently discovered you, I model in N so your product is not viable for me but skills and ideas do scale. I have extreme space constraints so I am doing a modified T-Track system. I have so many Ideas for my layout that by using the modules I'm hoping to be able to reconfigure the layout differently every time I bring it out. I store it on a wire shelf bakers rack (2) one for modules one for scenery and buildings.
I really like to Erie Lackawanna power yep structures are wonderful it really looks good
I love what you've done! Both your and Jason's Layouts are wonderful! There are similarities for both of you; but, different enough to tell the difference! Thanks for sharing!!!
That style of graffiti and those writers are a bit early for the 70s
Hi Fos Scale Model - Mode & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Fos Scale Model-Mode & Friends Randy
thank you
Wow, just wow!
Love you kits. Just wish they were in N scale. Thanks for sharing.
It is looking very good, much more interesting the way you have laid it out now. Your artistic side definitely showing. I love that you show things you wished you had done differently, it makes me realize I am not alone. Thanks
Hi Doug thanks for the update. You’re a great inspiration. When you showed the broken hydrocal retaining wall you moved a concrete railing. Can you give details on this like where you got it or if you built it yourself? Thanks again.
I make each wall from a new mold made of foam core or gator board; I have a video showing how here:th-cam.com/video/-bWgAvxQHuU/w-d-xo.html
@@FosScaleModels thanks Doug but my question was on the railing. Appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thanks again.
Grown men playing with trains......I want one a train....but with cars, every day is a potential 'Katzilla' episode...
Really fantastic progress, Doug. Loving the new additions.
Thanks Craig!
I had an art teacher, Miss Stone, from 1969 - 1974 whose motto was "work with your mistakes". I've had to fall back on that in my personal life and other model builder.
I enjoyed the update and look forward to new videos. I like the look of what is being done. I am going to be "that guy" though: the camera movement literally gave me motion sickness - sorry. It's like trying to play certain video games with my son lol.
hurray a new video!
Looks like you're making great progress. Beautiful work!
Coming on nicely Doug, can we have a video of a running session please? Would be great to see some of your PC/NH models making their way through the scenery.
You can add a piece of nylon screen door mesh in the castings to reinforce the back them.
I love it, we would stay with my Aunt in Brooklyn, 70's and 80's, and I remember egg creams, baseball cards, and mostly, the elevated subway trains that passed just below her 18 story tenement. Every night they would pass, clickity clack, one had a cool graffiti depiction of Yosemite Sam pointing two six guns. The sights and sounds are still fresh in my mind, your layout is wonderful ✨️
Thank you!
Dear Doug, the tweaks to your layout you showed in this video make sense. Do remember saying in a previous comment that the track in the background had potential for a subway line. However, when it’s so hard to reach the tracks then it becomes obvious to change the plan. Humbly think the little subway diorama in the right hand corner adds a lot of ‘underground’ depth to the layout. Same can be said for the concrete viaduct and the elevated track you’re planning to build. The way the concrete viaduct visually ends the vista on the tracks beneath it is an excellent choice. Cool to see what kind of backdrop transitions you now are emphasizing on. Will definitely look forward to seeing these parts develop. Less is more as the saying goes. Also, with the layout at a relatively high level it’s much harder to see up front what kind of accessibility restrictions this level will bring. On the other hand from the straight up viewing perspective the higher level creates opportunities for more vignettes to draw the viewer’s eye. Cheerio
Looks like a lot of great work Doug!. Really like all those details.
