Bonjour de France 😊 Merci pour toutes vos vidéos super intéressantes et très inspirante, j ai hâte de voir les prochaines vidéos. Encore merci à bientôt 👍👍👍
I find the Goldens Matte Medium causes a white film after it dries over some colors as you can see on your track. One of the reasons why I switched to Liquitex matte medium as when thinned aggressively does not do this. The white film is also an indicator that you can thin it with more water as well. You can make the white/grey film disappear with a thin wash of earth and IPA over top after it dries. Cheers. ;-)😁
@@boomerdiorama it’s actually snow from the recent cold snap in Louisiana!🤪 Prototype for everything! Thanks for your advice. Really appreciate it! I believe it was actually the Masters Touch matte medium that I was using in that section. I will cut back on the ratio!!
Definitely audio issues on this video!
Sounds ok on my end. What are the so called “audio issues” that you are having problems with?
I love little details like that, especially on logging railroads in the Pacific Northwest like mine. Thanks for encouraging us to "GET REAL" with details.
Thank you for watching and thanks for the kind words!
Seem s audio is a problem only at the first part of the video.
Thanks for the feed back. Working out the kinks of new mic set-up.
Can barely here the audio.
Interesting. I played back on both my computer and our flat screen TV and we could hear fine....Thanks for your comment! I double check.
Who did that music ?
It's from TH-cam Studio copyright free music. It's called "A New Orleans Crayfish Boil" by Unicorn Heads.
@@mosquitocreeklumberco.7983 Excellent choice, thanks
GET TO THE CHOPPAH!
RUN!!!!!!!!!
I recently found your videos on this layout and the HO scale layout. You have a lot of really nice looking scenes. Very nice detailing.
Thank You!!!!
I have really enjoyed your video and it really helps me with my recovery from my brain tumour and stroke as I try to get back to my modelling I mention my illness so you know who is watching and why thank 😊 you

Nicely done,,excellent design and details,,thanks for sharing,,😊
Thank You!!
Beautiful work! Thanks for the tour.
I'm really impressed with your aged concrete it looks great.
@@loug2414 Thanks so much!
Only Marines or Navy uses the term "scuttlebut". Cheers from an old Marine sergeant in eastern TN
@@w.rustylane5650 I guess I picked up the term somewhere down the line! Maybe these two are veterans of the war now working in the swamp in their new civilian roles!! Thanks for your service to our great nation!!! Semper Fi!
Great detail and swamp atmosphere! Watching from Vienna, happy New Year!

So nice to see you again, have missed seeing the "old lay out" with commentary. It looks like you're making headway, tho, on the new parts. Keep up the great work!

Great article in RMC on the stumps!
Awesome channel and a great layout thanks for sharing. Just subscribed 👍 Keep safe and well Andy
@@MarchWestJunctionTMD Thank you for the subscription!!
It's great to see a new video from you. Always interesting and excellent modeling.
Fellow o scaler here. Man I love the detail! I really hope to be able to incorporate details like this in my new layout and expansion. Thank you for the tour, you are a true artist!
Great layout thanks for sharing
I want to be a layout like you when I grow up!
Sometimes it is looking like reality 👍🏻
Great layout. Waited in vain for some action. But why is that camera constantly moving or shaking ? Nicely created the atmosphere of the Deep South !
@@Lakeside1943 just a quick handheld video update not intended for cinematic perfection. Most of the layout is not operational at this time as I restore the layout. Look back at some of my previous videos to see some trains in action.
Brilliant LK shout, Love the effects, Noises and all, This is like as real lumbar company Rail I visited once on holiday in the USA , Excellent Stuff. Regards John
This was so original. Nice!
Waouch, what an evil place to live , surrounded by that toxic stinky water full of diseases, spiders, ticks, that swamp water full of duckweeds, and that croc´ watching me as its next meal, i run away. Forget OFF stuff to repel mosquitoes, i shout myself with old deadly Flytox stuff😅😅😅😅😅 That layout is a dream. Your swamp water is really convincing with well integrated scenes. That barge idea is a real hint. Since your still building, some You Tube videos could be helpful in giving you ideas. In Russia they still have some narrow gauge railroads. Mainly for peat moss and logging. They range from "not to bad shape " to totally falling apart, passing in some small villages with wood plank houses. Many are decrepits and abandoned. For them that track is the only way out and to receive goods. Videos are well done, some with drones. If you permit me, here is a short with track that you only saw in photos on plate glass. Enjoy that minimalist temporary logging branch on swampy soft ground. Notice trees parallel to the track as subroadbed. Thanks to share your impressive layout. Too bad the camera is shaking. Enjoy it. th-cam.com/users/shortsWwnn90Yyhnw?si=TZGYjSvZ9Nl5vAxI
Beautiful to say the least !
Very nice. I've just found your channel and subscribed. Narrow gauge logging railways really are my favourite. I wish I had started one instead of a modern HO layout. Thanks for sharing this update. I'll check out your back catalogue now....
helloooooo! long time no see. WB
Phantastic….
Definitely one of the most interesting layouts I’ve seen. What year would you place the layout in? I ask because your US flag has 50 stars, and, in terms of authenticity, that design didn’t fly until 1960. Eagerly looking forward to more of your excellent work.
@@MU-2 good eye spy! I’ll have to fix that since the layout is set in the post war 1940s to early 1950s. Thanks for sharing and watching the videos.
love the gator skin
Nice! Very inspirational!
Everything looking old and dusty. Perfect. Beautiful layout sir.

Wow this is amazingly detailed!
Really nice process ! I am currently hand laying 72 inches of O scale code 148 track. I am using Testor Wood and Metal glue with number 0 truss screws to secure the rails to the ties that I cut. The finished track is in sections. Your layout looks great !
