- Been busy over the past month or so. The main portion of the station platforms are now complete. Still a very long way to with this part of the layout but I'm pleased with how it's looking so far.
Music used in the intro..

45 minutes of Everard Junction! Excellent
I don’t think it was long enough. I cried when it finished
cant get enough
Awesome 80's vibes from the intro. Gave me vibes to the "Round Trip To Glasgow" and "This is the age of the train"
Looking forward to the rest!
i guess Im asking the wrong place but does anybody know a trick to log back into an Instagram account?
I stupidly forgot my password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
@Marcellus Aaron instablaster ;)
@Krew Beckham i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and im in the hacking process atm.
Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Krew Beckham it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account :D
@Marcellus Aaron You are welcome =)
That weathered track looked absolutely superb. I am trying to weather the track on my son's layout and as a first try with only brushes etc., it isn't going well!!! I can't wait to finish it so I can then make a mess of ballasting as well...I hope with some practice and better tools that I can get as good as you are.
That made me laugh! I remember my one and only attempt at track weathering - it was terrifying! It felt like a one-way deal with the only option to keep going darker...
Thank you for another excellent video. I’ve just posted a similar comment on Dean Park’s channel. Just wanted to thank you both for your inspiration. Some 30+ years ago I rescued my boyhood train set from the family home all with the best of intentions but no progress. After seeing your video’s I’ve started to prepare the loft, lighting and power now added. Thanks again for getting me going and setting my retirement hobby.
45 minutes of great video Richard. Absolutely love the new into..thought I was watching a BR advert 😁
The single and disused platform in the bay are stunning. Can hardly wait to see the platform later on when it is totally finished. Cheers, Bob
You sir, are what is referred to as a ‘master craftsman’ you’re a pleasure to watch.
Excellent attention to detail and just enough litter for my liking. I've seen a few railway videos from the 70's/80's and to say some people refer to that time as better maybe it wasn't as far as litter louts, the litter in some stations was an embarrasment for a train enthusiast. These days we have more of the dreaded invasive Budlia and less litter, which is how I prefer it. I love the authentic effect of oil and grime clogging up the ballast and it reminded me of some of the more grimey workshops at Doncaster plant when I worked there. I'm getting so much inspiration from your work and your infectious enthusiasm.
Love the attention to details, as ever. The bay platform trackbed looks suitably oil-soaked and the litter is a superb touch.
Don’t forget your red lamp for the bay platform buffer stop though. Mounted on top or on a post behind the buffer stops. In reality, this would have to be electrically proved as “lit” to satisfy the signalling controls interlocking, this in order to get a yellow aspect in the last signal up to the platform, with ‘Bay’ indication on an associated stencil indicator or multi-lamp route indicator which would be mounted alongside (stencil) or above the signal head (either position). If I can be of help with anything re signalling, give me a shout.
God that intro was so 80's I love it
The time lapse with the trains speeding by was incredibly satisfying... :-)
I just ran 5.5kms on a treadmill watching this, fantastic 👍🏻 You are very talented and have a great eye for detail. One day, I’d like to build my own layout based on the trains I used to watch growing up in the late 70’s and 80’s in Staines, Middlesex (3rd rail electrics but plenty of varieties of rolling stock).
That branch line reminds me of platform 2 and 3 at reading where the diesel Reading to Basingstoke stops and starts all day long dropping oil each day plus all the exhaust smoke going everywhere making that part of the track look like this 👏👏👏👏
Loved the intro as much as the modelling content, superb shots, cuts, zooms and angles, just as authentic as your weathering and details. Those sweeping curves and superelevation adds to the realism, I had to do a double take with those two 33's double heading the ballast working past those extra wide platforms, for a moment I was there back in the 1980's on the end of that platform. 😍
Just found your stuff. Really enjoyable. Thanks for producing this content. I'll certainly follow with interest. Well done from the USA.
That intro was something else, great camera work and fantastic editing, it had a very professional vibe. Great job
Thanks, I always get carried away with the intros!
Another great video!!! I'm not a railroad modeler myself but I'm fascinated by it. I love watching how you are building your layout.
Amazing work you have there.. the dirty grim up front makes a great visual for looking for more detail in the main and relief line so it was great seeing the drains and everything that you add. you do a great teaching of the way you make a layout. Thank you for sharing
Okay the sleeper detailing train time lapse was so satisfying!
Awesome. Had to start laughing right at second 2 of the intro. That is soooo 1980‘s. Well done.
Love the intro, real 1980s vibe. I love your layout, please do keep up the great work!
Those three 47’s birthed outside the platforms look really cool. Good job 👍.
Amazing work. I have just discovered your videos just in time.. I am in the planning stages of my layout, and after viewing hundreds of videos for tips and inspiration, yours are by far the most informative. No hyped up BS and a plea for subscribing before you start. Such a breath of fresh air. Your techniques and workmanship are very good. I feel like I should pay you for the tutorials. Keep them coming.
Stand Clear
Great lengthy update on the new station build Richard, your videos are always appreciated here 👌🏻
Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
Your enthusiasm and skill inspires me,well done Richard..
Excellent work, of course. I was intrigued as to putting the platform edges in, then adding the tops much later, as opposed to building the platform and then installing it. Thanks for another master class! 🤙🤙
I have been watching Everard Junction for quite some time and the quality of the content is exceptional. The intro with its great camera work and underlying sound track is simply engrossing. Thank you for putting out such brilliant videos as they are simply brillaint.
I loved how the trains were going by when you were doing the branch line platform!
Evening Richard. What a fantastic update 👍🏻 It's looking more like a railway now the station is taking shape 😊 It's the best thing on TV tonight 😄 Cheers Stevie 😎
Very realistic weathering, very enjoyable to watch and nice video photography.
Ahhh litter!!! See it everywhere but rarely on a layout, great to see that level of detail!! Love it!!! 👍
you are a true master modeler. thanks for letting us go along for the ride. keep up the great work.
Wow, I've watched hundreds of scenery videos and this is the only one I've seen someone add litter. Great idea.
very nice work, I like how you have purposefully left some imperfections as details to make it look more real.
This is absolutely my favorite intro! Loving the 80's style videography and music. You nailed it!
Fantastic video Richard... Looking great with the additions of the station area. Looking forward to the future updates of the station area. Loving the dmu bay platform in all its dirtiness 👍
Addition of the litter was the perfect final touch to bring that area to life.
Great video again, you always do an amazing job and make it look realistic. Thank you for taking the time to produce these videos for us to all enjoy.
That intro rocked!! Pure 80s nostalgia there. Great job with the platforms and the absolutely disgusting tracks at the terminating platform.
At 38 minutes you mentioned that the video was becoming lengthy...I was shocked!
I had been fascinated throughout.
Thank you for such a full and complete tutorial on YOUR method of station platform construction.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you Richard for the best tip for ballasting, Isopropanol Alcohol before PVA mix, is a master stroke. Many thanks for passing that on.
No problems, water also works but I find IPA to be more effective, cheers.
Great intro, the layout is coming along beautifully, you are a master at weathering both the rolling stock and the scenery, the overall look is quite spectacular.
Thank you for sharing your efforts and passion.
I’ve been getting in a bit of a rut this week, ain’t done any modelling, not had a spare minute, but this has given me a bit of a boost... I’ll be hitting the layout this weekend to get on with my scratch builds. :-) enjoyed that update. Cheers for the shout out, as always it’s good to be able to help out fellow modellers and friends where I can :-) that grubby 50 looks great!
Cheers Dave. Very pleased with the shed thanks, easier to build than some kits I've done! I'll be adding some guff & grime to it in future.
I always enjoy viewing your videos......... very informative, and the new intro is wonderful !
That intro was absolutely amazing
Thanks, I get carried away with those. Takes a lot of filming for those bits, cheers.
Love your “dirty work” and weathering style man!!! Great looking👍🏻
Love the 80's vibe intro and a full 45-minute update - awesome!
Modelling work is great as always and I hope you can post another update video soon.
cheers!
Well worth the wait, another brilliant production great work well done !
Part of the fun of having a layout is the modelling/landscaping aspect. I spend a lot more time doing this than actually running trains! (until I run out of things to model/landscape, that is).
Great job on the ballast and track work, it looks awesome
👍👍👍👍👍 Looks Great,Reading General was quite grubby with plenty of litter and rubbish strewn about,don’t think anyone swept up till they built the new station 😁
I like the running of the trains at the end I most liked when you were looking down the platforms towards the office building
Great job mate, looking forward to your upcoming layout updates!
Hi Richard
As expected the station looks superb and your attention to detail is amazing.
Cheers Paul 👍
Great update Richard look forward to seeing the next one 👍
Some fantastic work. Really liking the littering on the siding. Looking really great with the mixed weathering. All the best, Clint
Great stuff, thanks for uploading, look forward to the platform and station detailing 👍👍
Wow Richard, you kept us waiting this month but it was worth the wait, nice vid, well done, love it!
Hi Richard, have been following your channel for ages and have also been subscribed for ages. Don’t often comment but the papers on the tracks on your opening sequence were incredibly realistic and also the use of scenic break/platform/realistic train lengths info I’d never heard of but is of course excellent. In fact had I ever known that in my previous distant years I may well have never made the change from 00 to n gauge! ATB, Paul
This video proves why you are in the Premier League, leaving all the others in the Championship League. Marvellous, I look forward to seeing the next episode. Best wishes. John
Nice intro. Love the grotty track in the bay platform Looking forward to the next one!
Great video Richard and good luck with the rest of the layout! Especially love your weathering of the track
The camera angles on the intro were beautiful!
Ha 2:03 That's Carlisle. My Grandad "Spud" drove trains for BR throughout the 70's 80's n 90's and was given an award for his service. He not with us now but that pic brought back memories. Your layout is a true work of art love watching it grow ; )
As usual.....Brilliant Stuff and amazing tips
Dear Sir,
In these times of global unrest your videos (though i have seen most of them) are a welcome relief from the stress imposed on all of us. Thank you very much. As american military people say, be safe!
Thanks, I'll have another video ready for the weekend. As most of us are in isolation I'll be making it longer than usual. Take care.
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Well done. Thanks for sharing.
lovely litter.. such grime.. delighful adventure.
Looking great Graham, look forward to your next video. Regards Gary
Brilliant job! I love the unkept look of the bay platform. And love the intro.
Very nice!
I wonder if you might want to add some layers to the blowing trash. My experience in the US is there will be a layer of paper so old and composted into the ballast that it is only vaguely recognizable by shape, and completely black/brown. There will be a second layer well on its way, but with still the occasional spot of recognizable but unreadable headline type. Then the third layer of recent paper that blew in on the latest wind and stuck on the bushes and corners.
That bay platform with it's oil stained track, old trackbed and litter really nails it for me... brilliant!!!
Cheers, bit much for the whole station but I wanted to have a really filthy bit somewhere!
@@EverardJunction Also a big thanks to you for your how to do video's I'm on my 4th attempt at my N Gauge "Anglia Blue" layout and went DCC took a big note of powering each piece of track and so far running super smooth :)
Love the old lifted siding, adds a bit of all important history to the station.
I wonder how the Everard Junction would have looked back in steam days.
I live in the U.S., but I want to build a small section of my layout for British trains. Maybe give it a northern UK feel.This was a great video.
Hi, You have taken the speed of your trains to another level!
Awesome job and intro Richard!!!! I like it very much!!! Thanks for sharing! Cheers Onno.
Another Great video made even better by brilliant music you are a true artist sir your standards are exceptional .
Southern Railway Concrete platform edging as produced in the SR Exmouth Junction concrete works from the 1930's. (Peco being in South Devon seem to like copying SR infrastructure !) Mmmphh and the third rail next, and then some EMU's maybe ? Tip: Buffer stop buffer beam, in the Bay platform road, should be red (1980's) with a red lensed lamp on the buffer stop. To enter a platform dead end track a single yellow aspect (post 1966 ish) is required, because after a single yellow comes a red, so the red lamp on the buffer stop is the end of the line SIGNAL.
Also I wouldn't replace the slip with a Bullhead one as you have concrete sleeper welded rail track either side, and the P.Way Engineer wouldn't tolerate an old Bullhead slip in such a position ! I'm and ex BR Toplink Driver....
The layouts coming along nicely, and your vids are well presented, most enjoyable.
Excellent work, great observation of the real thing has inspired you to recreate it in 4mm scale..really impressive .
your new station really reminds me of my home town Hastings, its on the southern network looks so similar to your models design, theres a new building now but the one in the 80s when i was born always sticks in my mind, the old slam door trains also. theres even a horribly dirty forgotten bay platform complete with yep, rubbish lol :)
I really like the new intro music and montage. Very 80s and fits with the era of the layout. Its like watching Miami Vice with trains!
Haha thanks, that's the vibe I was going for!
Great work. Love your layout and videos 👍
Hi Richard,
Just a short note for you and your family at this time, take care.
With love and best wishes from Australia
You to mate, we'll get through this. I'm working hard to get the next video ready. Should have it sorted for the weekend. Cheers
33:15 You're simulating the effect of rain washing away some of the grime!
Great job, looks brilliant, love the realistic view.Take care for now .Mac
Love that new intro always great to see what you achived
So much to enjoy in your videos. Thank you.
I’ve watched nearly all of your videos it gives help and ideas as I planning aa layout of my own so thank you
Great video, really enjoy watching your layout progress
Fantastic video. Love the intro. BR advertising at its finest.
Can’t wait to see the station when it’s finished
Love your vids everyard juction:)
Great video as always Richard absolutely love the beginning intro with the music.
Always look forward to videos from your channel.
Peter from birmingham
Thanks Peter, I love making those intros.
Another really great video. The level of detail you go to is ridiculous. Fantastic. Although if I may make one suggestion. I'd fire all the Everard Junction station staff as they need to clean up all that litter ;)
Looks good I like the oil and diesel on the track effect
Great video as always and I love the new intro even as a modern era US modeler these videos are very cool.
No one:
Everard junction:
ugh, UGH, God that’s disgusting!
That gave me a good chuckle
Only one small thing: Wheels can´t remove track surface rust so close to the buffer stop. The last 5-10 feet will always be rusty.
Correct, got carried away with the track rubber. I'll sort it out when go over the area with further detailing. Cheers
@@MidwestFarmToys Level 700 - Demi God.
Wasn't unknown for buffers to be pushed backwards by the occasional train however, which would remove some rust.
Excellent video to follow the platform build
Great stuff as always, thanks for posting your efforts!
Another fantastic video Richard. Agree with "Owen's Model Railways", loving the intro and incidental 80s music. Almost expected Dempsey and Makepeace to come running onto the platform chasing some ne'er do well probably connected to the robbery at Database. Really interesting to see the transformative effect that final layer of spray and the litter detailing had on that terminating platform. Certainly is coming along a pace, keep it coming and I for one wouldn't mind seeing longer episodes although realising time is at a premium for certain activities. Ah before I forget, seeing the weathering along the platform edges with the sponge, for some reason it made me think of those Kiwi Shine & Protect bottles with the applicator sponge on top, maybe something you could use in the future?
Those kiwi applicators would work a treat. I've been using old packaging up to now!
Absolutely loved it🥰👍❤
