Hello, Just watched your video on using the risers Which Im about to do myself on my layout. Where abouts are you in Spain?

How to make g scale video please

Only for g scale all information please help me

I need please share link

kzbin.infopfFk5GABOOE?si=p2Npa7YkY3u-1d1C SCX from Spain sneak peak Going on the o gauge .

ABO !! :-) Ich möchte sehen wie es weitergeht. Gruß aus Sonneberg/Thüringen.

Looks like a good start. Can’t wait to see the progress.

What about a small wood “bed frame” would the edges and then strapping across the bottom. So you can ruck mount the wiring, mount Kato turnout switches , a rokuhan power pack or one of the tomytec ones and checking even put a suitcase handle on the other side!

What size is the baseboard on the wee layout?

Nice !!!

If you don’t have to leave for mos at a time vs the city job DO IT. I am looking at moving to my home town 1000 ppl from city of 300k. Have a house picked out. If we do this I can retire that’s how much cheaper the mortgage will be. Good thing I built my layout on ikea linnmons because this day might be coming soon. Point being if I could pull this off I can retire. I’m willing to change the shape of my layout(s) for that! I saw the king on tv after floods shocking footage hope you’re not affected by this

Cant we add more straight tracks in between and fill that 2mm gap by slightly pulling the lower line?

Many thanks for your reply. Even second hand items seem to hold their price. Its as if there is a cartel!.

There's nothing in the KATO range thats a few buck or pounds! Its quite an expensive system.

Love your layout and attitude. I've also recently got into G scale. My layout is a smaller loop on some decking outside, with a passing siding and tiny goods yard. Tiny layout means no big locos unfortunately - Stainzes are perfect because they're so short. To add variety on a small G layout I can thoroughly recommend the equally short LGB E1 electric shunter steeple cab from the Mixnitz - St Erhard line in Austria. For DCC I've gone down the DIY route building the command station off an Arduino. For decoders, sound modules and smoke generators I've find mXion in Germany are excellent and unbeatable on price compared to the more established brands. I think also backwards compatible with LGB MTS kit.

How did it turn out?

How many tracks is the N mainline? Is there room for a second or multiple station stops for all the passenger trains? Windows 98 is when I switched to Mac. Really glad that it’s working Was concerned because I haven’t had luck with older pc software working ok. This software allows you to customize the loco like jmri or what does it do?

Thet really is cool !!! I simply love it and the Facia track is very cool !!!

It looks fucking awesome

That fascia and conduit idea is brilliant!

How many LGB locos do you have now and what part numbers are they. Are these the ones from the sets with the Chiquita banana car and flatcar and caboose

You beat me to the ATSF pa set! I want that for pulling a El Capitan on the las Vegas and Los Angeles modules. Haven’t got a gs4 but I did pickup a fef greyhound in Kato with sound. It runs amazing. I have 1 loop on the home layout it can not make without detailing on the new continuous section on the upper level. So that is getting fixed next, because it would be nice to pickup more of those larger steam locos for that area. Again you did really good with the choices; you must be getting close to the entire Kato usa passenger collection now yes?

Reminds me of my N scale Suitcase stuffing from Europe trips. You did great. Background buildings will do their job. the g scale expansion siding will work nicely. Looking forward to that and some more g scale running. Here’s a video from a couple days ago ( the layout is already outdated for what you will see next) . This is the second camelback from Lionel we picked up. Absolutely love it. It’s the smoke. You would think you were in France with the clouds it makes. kzbin.infoSwwKDrEogHQ?si=rLO75fzALbgs5jo8

Hey !! Hope you got back ok. We all are waiting for the USA purchases inbox video!

Apropos old people riding trains, I´m 72 and I´m having a hard time coming to terms with the fact that I´m now the same age as old people 🤔 That tough bloke on the left sitting with his luggage at 0:55 looked relatively ´armless. Seriously now, my tip is go for the cheaper seated figures to put inside carriages. (a) you can´s see much of them, mostly silhouettes, so detail is not so important. (b) I found most of the ones you show here were too big, legs out stretched, to fit properly in my Piko passenger starter set carriage seats.

Hello Sir, I've started watching your N-Scale Videos from the beginning and so far I'm finding it very impressed Thank you. Can you Please tell me what does OsO stand for? I'm hoping your N-Scale How-to Videos are for true N-Scale. Thank you for your time Sincerely Allan

Good luck. Looking good.

yes Georgia for 8/9 weeks

When do you go to the states, And what state(s)

What about a 3d printer for the low relief buildings? I use mine a lot for the layout. I have the Soval sv06.

Hand held cams sucks

Rhopkin! Glad to see you’re doing well. You are fully responsible for me adding 3 rail o gauge. (Because of your LGB) But like a picky eater kid they can’t touch lol. The n scale is in its own train room double deck layout as you know, and then when I wish the room next door (rumpus room) I can setup the N scale Las Vegas and Los Angeles modules which are on wheels, and setup the whole thing in about an hour. the o gauge 3 rail has its own take down able modules. They store on my ceiling with lag bolts. The guys in my n scale club were worried I was going to be leaving N. at 110ish locomotives and 1200? Rolling stock , near 20 years of collecting there is no way I ever would. Still my favourite! You can do so much with space wise it is the best bang for buck hands down! Especially the passenger trains. But the o gauge for when i just want to see it run around on a loop and not so much worry about operations I enjoy the o gauge, for what it is. Which is VERY different from n. I really like after you seeing and watching your videos on the lgb, I think you did amazing in the space you have, including designing the track plan while away from home! Once I saw that you could do a not very deep benchwork on a big train and run big small locos like the styles you have, it was kind of a neat ide that inspired me Big trains in a small space. But I’m confused about the oo. I would have done a woodland scenics riser or some other grade between where the n scale mainline is currently and then on the 3rd level where the hornby is another loop of N. 3-4 mains. 3-4 n trains running. The fact that it’s Retro the hornby is really interesting and awesome. But I would have thrown it on a portable table of some sort. Like a 4x8 foot table. That is the common table size in ho with millions of track plans for ho out here. Oo being very similar. Something really cool on the typical 4x8, instead of 3 loops in 3 scales, it would be a different layout. To do something unique with that collection you picked up. With a uk theme. Where would you store the 4x8? On the garage ceiling of course! Upside down. Removable buildings. Can still park in garage. To get my fix like you I have the giant trains, and the tiny ones. If someone said Tyler here’s a ho train from your childhood (athearn) it would have to be on a non touching layout, that I took out when i wanted. I have one ho locomotive from my childhood. A sd40-2 in cp rail from athearn. Anyway glad to see your progress and the new schedule will be better it sounds like.

Thanks! It’s 6.5 meters long x 2.5 meters wide at the wide end and only 1.85 meters wide at the narrow end. Everything is really squeezed in considering the original plan was for all N scale double deck with a helix where the mountain is.

Hello! Greeting from Canada. Congrats on your 501 subscribers. Working my way up slowly as well. I love the concept of combing three scales in one room! May I ask what dimensions your room is? Thanks!

Hand held cams sucks

I have a question, does your 4449 operate weirdly when you first opened the box and used it? Mine seems like it’s struggling to operate through curves when I operate the engine slowly, not too problematic on straight tracks.

You’re almost at 500 subs! That’s awesome. Just came to my gs4 research channel lol

MAN THAT'S AWOSOME.

Hey Rhopkin happy new year hope you’re doing good

I am scratch building an N Scale wooden bridge. I want to pin it, rather than using glue, the members are crushing when I attempt to drill them; any ideas?

What software are you using to model the layout?

How You doing on the layout

For cleaning track, I find soaking track in cheap white vinegar for an hour or two, then pull out and take a used toothbrush and barkeepers friend and this cleans off the rails, including deeply weathered [almost black] track sections. Once you get the shine rinse off with water. Just watch out the barkeepers friend rinses off completely and doesn't cake up on the rails.

Glad you’re doing well! A lot more o gauge locos and rolling stock en route. It’s 35C most days here so basement is only way to cool down some times! Not getting as much done as fall/ wintertime but lots of new N and O coming soon. Again, glad you’re doing well, we are doing good here.

Nice update! I'll be waiting for the G-Scale helix build. :)

Love your videos. Question on your passing section. Did you isolate the siding from the mainline? I cant get one train to stay parked.

Scenery. Paint the plaster cloth or table etc area with a couple nice Color’s you like of paint (I typically use craft or latex paint and 4 Color’s) and I spray alcohol to mix it and foam brush. Then Sift on but don’t completely cover (allow some paint to show through is fine, different Color grouts , then spray 50% alcohol on the grout. The grout is thin, has the glue in it and glues itself when it dries vs than spraying glue. I’m on layout 12 and I wish I knew what I now have perfected. I have 3 Colours of tan, and pre washed playsand for gravel roads and bigger gravel. Barrie has brown grout then green grass for forest. After the grout is dry then you add static grass, peel and stick tufts, bushes, moss, etc etc. it’s cheaper than any other method and the multiple Color’s look more realistic. Grout here is 26$ bag and I am just about finished 1/3. Vs one shaker of foam is 29$ and looks fake to me except if you’re doing IRELAND. I don’t know what area of Germany you are modelling although I’ve been there a lot. I put my MacBook beside me with saved folder of pics of the area im scenicing and I stare at that photo and match my paints and grouts to the picture. It works! If you pickup paint chips at hardware store and mix latex sample jars that’s one way, or you get the small craft paints is cheaper but you may have to mix to get shade you want.
