Having buildings at hand to plop down and go “ooh, I know where to place this”. Priceless
You guys are amazing and doing it on a Budget makes it all the more appealing.
Thanks
Nice to see a rake of coaches going somewhere. The Superquick station look the business.
Well done with the progress. It looks amazing.
Great update 👍🏻, station is looking great
Thanks I was quite pleased with it in the end
That industrial scene with the low relief buildings is looking great. I know what you mean about the excitement when things get moving. I sometimes find myself having a really good evening cracking on with a whole load of projects. Keep up the good progress. GWR
The low relief buildings against the back scene looked really effective I'm amazed how quickly your layouts come along, mine is taking ages but really enjoyable to do and I'm picking up loads of tips from your channel on the way.
Thanks for watching
I enjoy your videos. They give me ideas on how arrangements will look. I especially liked your wall scape combined with low relief buildings you add depth to the scene. Again I enjoy trains. Keep on tracking. From the third coast in the new world!
Thanks for watching and commenting Ken
Your videos are amazing. I'm a beginner. Wanted to get started for so long but was put off by price. But after seeing your video I'm getting going. So many videos confused what I wanted but you make it simple and to keep to a budget price that looks amazing.
Thanks have fun with it
Brilliant. Really like the new track plan and surrounding buildings etc. 👍
Great video and the excitement you feel for the layout really comes through - love the 'I just plonk things down and see what they look like' - think I'll try and plan like that from now on!
It works for us
What you've got there is suburban stations in an industrial cityscape. The platform canopy in the first shot is from the Superquick terminus station kit. Nice to see I'm not the only person who favours this brand and its adaptability. Looking forward to developments, as and when you find time.
Superquick are very under rated, especially now they have updated them, and at such cheap prices
That's coming along quite nicely, Mike! I think we all go through 'dry spells' where we look at the layout and say "Meh." Eventually we get back into it. Model railroading does seem to be more of a late autumn/winter hobby. Spring and summer come along and we want to be outdoors more often, not to mention yard work and house repairs. We do what we can, when we can. It's more of a marathon than a sprint race.
All very true. In my case I try and find a small bit of time each day and a longer spell once a week as I find it therapeutic being creative. But life does tend to get in the way! Having got lots done I'm as we speak looking through books and the internet to find inspiration for the second station as I have hit a wall creative wise.
live on air you solved the warf problem... that's why we watch you guys... never know what will work till you try it... 4ft station racing along
Great update!
It is looking very good. I like the ideas.
I love your videos they have helped me start to make my layout
Great glad we could help
You should connect the island platform that leads into the goods yard back onto the lower loop. So you can run around trains at the station in the island platform.
The low relief transitioning to the flat backscene is great. I do the same with my buildings; I'll build them with a spot in mind but later on looking over a scene I'll think "I've got just the building for that spot" and re-plant it. I like the idea of elevating that station versus having it in the foreground; it provides a visual break in viewing the layout and for lack of a better term adds "texture" to the scene.
Who makes the industrial city backscene behind the station?
They are peco back scenes
Thank you...I found some, quite inexpensive but the shipping to the US is quite expensive.
Really looks great...The Blue Diesel and coaches running around the layout looks superb...Loving the progress in general...Cheers..Ade
The rate of progress is amazing. I'm really inspired and glad that you promte the idea that you should enjoy model railways and on a budget.
Cheers :)
Thanks for watching. The platforms only take about an hour to make which is a help
Great video.
Just a suggestion, where the upper level station is, you could still have the grass bank, with maybe a road bridge to get over the track as not all stations were built in the middle of towns and cities. Also you could fit a run round loop in the goods yard so you can do some shunting in the loft.
Hope this helps
It’s all coming along nicely! 🙂
Hey Budget Model Railways, I was thinking about trying to scratch-build a Streamlining Shroud for one of my bachmann 0-6-0 tender engines.
I have almost no idea how to do it, but it sounded like the sort of cool thing you and your son would figure out for less than the cost of a fine lunch.
Its possible to 3d print probably, but it would take a very long time to design
Coming along nicely 👍
Great work boy lo e the concept of the dock yard.
superquick station looks great :)
It all looks good my friend: I enjoy your videos and they help me with my pathetic little set that I love. And don’t give a toss on others thoughts 💭
If you love it then it's epic
well done it looks fantastic your relay motoring now
Good evening gentlemen, and nice to see you again. I pick your idea of a small closed building for freight in a small station, it is prototypical as you said, and interesting for my layout options (small branch line).
Anyway, I have to watch your video about making your own buildings, I think that buildings sold by retailers are far too large for my project, and I really need minimalist stations, all-in-ones which have a 15 x 30 feet footprint for the sole building in reality, the rank just above halt if you see what I mean.
About your station placement, I have a personal preference for the one above the tracks on a broad bridge, I see it as more british-like architecture than a side-built building, but it is up to you for the final choice.
Also thanks for showing us some tweaks ideas on Superquick buildings. I have an idea to wrote detective novels sets in an LMS station in 1946, and that would help me for the story if the station mistress had her house included in the station, like in your Superquick tweak... Also a good idea for one of my project.
Keep on the good work on both your layout and your videos, it is always delightfull to see your works.
Hi. Being too big is a problem, especially the Metcalfe ones. Most country stations had the house integral to the station, or very close. During the war many stations had female station masters and signal men, if that helps.
You know, I really like the way you put the layouts together. You plan almost on the fly it seems but somehow it all just works. I guess it helps to have extensive knowledge of what goes where in real life but I thought the creation of the little wharf scene was inspired and it looked perfect. Perhaps it makes the buildings too high in the front thereby obscuring the stuff immediately behind but I'm sure you will sort it out. As always, thanks for the videos which are always fascinating - what's the other hobby? Cheers
I learnt on my last layout that obscuring some scenes behind the for ground with trees or buildings helps the track look like its in the landscape not on it? I'm a senior youth worker, I get to deal with all the staff problems for my sins, among other things.
My first passenger train was a Hornby Class 37 and a rake of Mk2's.
Excellent
Those old SuperQuick kits last a long time. I have found resin buildings get faded and chipped. Good idea to stick to sectional track. I think the non-scenic section with the fiddle yard is questionable. Why not have a scenic fiddle yard disguised as a modelled marshalling yard? Interesting video explaining your decisions relating to the track plan and the scenic consequences. Thanks for uploading.
I may indeed make it scenic at some point as you suggest, thanks for watching
I model in different scales. Your videos have shown how one could use back drop scenes and by adding low relief buidin
Lmao "35 minute video on a new bit of wall" 😂😂 can think of more than a few model railway channels like that...
Hi Mike and Doug.It looks bloody great to me,what are the dimensions of the layout?I wish i had built mine with a 2 track high level now!Not sure how anybody can down thumb this,especially when you mention the passing of a fellow enthuisiast and a signal box of his.The misserable gits ;)
Hi its 9ft by 9ft ish. Sadly we have a seriel disliker who simply dislikes every video as soon as we upload it, bit pathetic really as they go to the trouble of getting a notification just to dislike the video!
Great video, looking forward to the next one. You mentioned ballast mat, can I ask what make you use and is it easy to stick down using PVA glue perhaps? Cheers. Johnny.
We use roofing felt, sticks really well with PVS
Thanks for the reply. I'll look out for it. The ballast mats I've seen online look like rolls of textured paper but just my guess.
Both Gaugemaster and Javis make thick paper rolls of ballast mat and both are good and worth considering
Use old matches for fences....
Hello there
How would you do the water in you budget model railway fashion I’m interested because I can only think of the expensive fake water
We have a video on it, we use discount store yacht varnish
Hi lads,
Just a quick question - the windows on your buildings - how do you make them?
Any kind of clear plastic, Peco point packaging is good , white sticky labels cut up to make the frames. On the low relief, black paper, white labels and telltale for the glass. Hope this helps
Thanks very much, lot of help. Keep up the good work!
Sorry that should have said sellotape for the glass!
Where do you buy your stuff
EBay, exhibitions and classic rail second hand shop in Kent who also have a website
@@BudgetModelRailways thank you
How the heck did you get a BR blue B12 loco...on ebay they is none
Took me a while, got it last year, about 25 quid I think
@@BudgetModelRailways wow trying to get one because I am on a budget for my 00 gauge layout but not on my n gauge...ps can we see more n gauge on the channel
Looks like you may have a few glitches with the video.
Ive watched it through again and apart from one tiny section where it goes out of focus I cant see anything?
@@BudgetModelRailways a couple of places last night, the slightly jerked in places. I'll see what happens later.
Perhaps check your wifi connection
I'm not a fan of super quick personally
The new ones are much better and they are a lot cheaper than Metcalfe
@@BudgetModelRailways I find the instructions incomprehensible
The old ones were awful, but the new ones have proper diagrams much better.
@@BudgetModelRailways must have been an old one I got from Ebay then
Probably, or a new one they have not repackaged yet? Ive just built today the fire station with very clear instructions, only paid £1 at an exhibition! I find they are a bit like IKEA furniture, once you have built a few you kind of know how they go together.
This layout is very good coming alone nicely, your like me with your way of working and sussing things out and probably over complicate things and getting in a rut then come back to it then have a eureka moment then its all guns blazing and loving it again! .
Im doing a garden railway in oo gauge i had my eureka moment last week on moving just a bit of track and adding a return loop its a funny old hobby!! Happy modeling guys keep up the good work . Subbed ages ago very useful tips thx again👍
I have a pipe dream for a OO garden railway so would love to know how you get on
@@BudgetModelRailways
No probs ive been taking pics from the start of the project if your interested .
Alternative materials used etc etc all been tested before applying to my layout
