Ken, again you hit the nail on the head. You demonstrate exactly what we want to see in the clearest, most detailed way, but never talking down to your "students" Excellent work!!!!.. from a high school teacher here in Canada.
Lots of great tips that really show you how to build a layout diorama, Thanks Ken!
Ken i just love your humble beginnings! I just love the step by step process on building this section on this layout! I love the transfer cabooses by Bachmann Trains! This is the "Best Hobby In The World" Till Next Time! MoPac Jack "As Always, Stay Safe & Keep It On The Rails" Rock N' Roll Forever..
Love it. I’d like to see how you’d do a street running diorama
Lots of great ideas and enjoyable construction instructions. Thank you.
thank you for great show and share great ideal each time that new way
Great project build Ken very much looking forward to it cheers!
Fantastic.
I too have built an easy all foam simple add-in shelf module at the end of my shelf layout. When I wan another scene after a while.... I'm swapping it out instead of tearing down an entire layout.
I really like your technique as well. Learning a little something from everywhere.
Another great show! Looking forward to the March show.
I purchased this video series (shelf layout) a while ago; neat stuff coming up.
I'd like to file a complaint.
This video is just making me realize how little I've been modeling lately. Everything you're doing is the stuff I love. Building layouts. Keep it up Ken!!!
Tons of great demonstrated techniques in this video!!!
Dam, u make it look so easy!
Brilliant video
Could not have picked a better time for this. On the eve of a shelf layout build🔨🪚🚂🙋
Love the show but wish you guys would do more layout tours.
This makes me think of the dawgbone style layout with a turnaround at both ends and then the tracks between them come together like a double mainline....
Great show, Ken. Hey, ask Larry when Bachmann is going to do some more On30 equipment, like a C-16 or C-19; style locomotives.
I can not seem to find the March edition. Will keep looking of course.
I LOVE this new sectional layout idea - it's GREAT! I would never build another layout, unless it were SECTIONAL, and moveable, upgradable, and easy to add new sections with other model railroaders - if and when desired. Sectional is the way to go.
Great job, hope you dont dust all your layout
I need to figure out a way to use that mic jack idea
Ken, you glue the track to the foam. Is there a lot of noise from doing it that way when the trains run? Thanks
hello ken its is randy and i like u video is cool ken and you spire me to building foam board and buildlng a train tunnels and i plaster wrap and plaster of paris and i am building model railway ho scale train and i am model moncton gordar yard thanks ken friends randy
I would really like to see you build a HO scale PCC Streetcar layout with the real Streetcar/Trolley tracks ! or a Subway layout ! 🚞 🚇
Do people really find it easier to solder the power to the side of the rails compared to the underside? You can do it after the track is down on the side, but you can still see it potentially, compared to not seeing the wires soldered under the rails, but having to do that while you’re laying the track.
I’ve soldered under the rails for my n scale.
Also, I didn’t really know how to turn blocks off and on when I made my layout, so I ended up using one of those dpdt switches. When it would switch the polarity, I just didn’t add any wires to that spot, resulting in no power. Not sure if there are any downsides to this though.
How do you not have more subscribers?
Tell all your buddies and maybe we'll get some more!
Because they make zero effort to market
Dumb question, but if you have to do all this switch wiring whether or not you're running DCC, why don't electrofrog switches just come pre-wired?
I’m curious about this, because I have Peco electrofrog, and I just use insulated joiners on the rails that would go to the frog. That might be a problem if you come in with DCC and have the switch thrown the wrong way though. I’m not sure. It hasn’t been bad for DC, which is what I have.
@@andrewlaverghetta715 Interesting. That's about what I was planning to do. I was planning on blocking off the sidings anyway.
Is Bachmann going to continue with On30 equipment?
Sweeeeeeeeeeeet
First Yea
When are you going to complete that N scale layout from two years ago??
He said he will get back to it soon! MoPac Jack
@@jackoesterlejr.3454 ok thanks!
