Building A OO Gauge Model Railway: The Scratch Build Series 2.6 - Internal Detailing

[@WardleRestorations]

Wow brilliant work, loved all the different tones of wood on the floor boards 👍

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you Wardle, glad you like it. Paul

[@gregoryhale2202]

Nothing short of brilliant, you should be so proud of the build so far. Cheers Greg

[@GalgormHall]

I’m definitely very happy with it Greg. Thank you. Paul

[@peterwrigglesworth7302]

Fabulous work Paul Great idea using the duck tape for the ridging tiles Iam sure you used that on a earlier projct as I was wanting to do the same trick on a recent build but could not find where i haf seen it i was sure it was one of your videos anyway ended up using masking tape fot my ridges. Keep up all the good work all the best Pete

[@GalgormHall]

The masking tape should work just as well Peter although perhaps a little less tacky. Paul

[@peterwrigglesworth7302]

Cheers Paul so its stayed stuck down just wanted to say with out your KZbin channel I don't think I would have tried scratch building large structures like a signal box so many thank again for sharing

[@garylaker4335]

Magnificent mate 👍 That box interior looks fabulous!

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you again Gary. Paul

[@ironknobsteelworks4063]

Fantastic, thanks for sharing. Duct tape for the ridge and hip tiles is yet another great idea!

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you for watching IKS. Paul

[@daviemaclean61]

Brilliant. I would have thought that duct tape was too thick, but, once again, I am wrong! And I have just (last night) installed that same wood flooring in a station building - it's getting the Paul treatment! - even though you wont be able to see much of it.

[@GalgormHall]

You can barely see the flooring in the box either but I know it’s there. That’s all that matters to me. 😆 Paul

[@daviemaclean61]

@@GalgormHall ;-) I have had the flooring for ages but only just found it again the other day - such a guddle in my loft! Cheers

[@SouthWesternModeller]

Wow! What a difference the detailed interior makes. Fine work as always Paul and would never have thought of using tape for the roof tile capping. Brilliant stuff!

[@GalgormHall]

Thanks Jamie, the tape works well as long as it sticks. 😆 Paul

[@HillcotMR]

Looks excellent!

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you Hillcot. Paul

[@thegrowler-blackwoodngauge]

Nice bit of detailing there Paul - will look the part on your layout. cheers Euan

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you Euan, I’m really itching to see it finished now and bedded in to its rightful spot. Paul

Beautiful work. I will save this for future reference. Thanks for sharing.

Great work as always Paul..well done my friend...Chris

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you Chris, now get back to preparing that update. 😆 Paul

[@Pixie586]

Great work as per usual Paul. Susannah

[@GalgormHall]

Aww thank you Susannah. Paul

[@Elvenhome]

I really do admire your painting techniques Paul. That floor looks very realistic. The duct tape is inspired also. The signal box will be the next build for me. I think I have nearly everything I need, including a kit for making the steps at N gauge. I hope to start work in about a week's time. Stephen

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you Stephen, I know most signal boxes would have had a plain floor but for me the wooden one does look much better. I can’t wait to see your signal box build. A kit for the steps will make things much easier to do, particularly in n gauge, I’ll be starting mine at the weekend. Paul

[@malcolmhodgson7540]

Fantastic job. Duct tape idea is brilliant.

[@GalgormHall]

Cheers Mal, it works quite well but you do need a good quality one, mines showing it’s cheapness. 😆 Paul

[@BexhillWest]

I've really enjoyed this series. I'm working on a couple of signal boxes and have found your videos really helpful. Thank you for sharing your ideas and techniques.

[@GalgormHall]

Hi Bexhill, I’m so glad they’ve been of help and thank you. Paul

[@onnomulder9775]

Awesome Paul!! Well done. Cheers Onno.

Lovely job of the interior Paul. Geoff

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you Geoff. Paul

[@alexhill9169]

Superb Paul, great video. I would never have thought about using duct tape for the roof, now I will be haha. The wooden floor is so good, I love it, toned down it looks well worn. Great video Alex

[@GalgormHall]

Thanks Alex, just make sure you get a good quality duct tape, mines showing the lack of funds spent on it. 😆 Paul

[@alexhill9169]

@@GalgormHall You and your pound shop purchases haha

[@ModelTrainOutsider]

Brilliant stuff, Paul. Glad to see the finer uses of duct tape have continued on! The interior kit looks amazing- you painted it up. The wooden floor was the true masterpiece- a simple trick. I would always just dab various browns on the flooring boards and them smear them and thought it looked good, but yours really are superb. Cheers!

[@GalgormHall]

Hi Anthony, thank you for the kind comments as always. Paul

[@Wickford_N_Gauge]

Hi Paul, tremendous update as always 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Must say the floorboards are a work of art 😍 it really is eye 👁 opening how you use acrylics to blend together the enamel painting 😉Keep up the great work and best wishes from County Wicklow ☘️

This build is an amazing work, great modelling. I am learning heaps Paul cheers. Paul at Sandling Junction

[@GalgormHall]

Glad you’re enjoying them bud. Paul

[@spottedzebra58]

Wonderful job Paul, the interior looks fantastic! Have you considered using copper foil "Slug barrier tape" instead of Duck Tape for the capping stones? It's an idea I have had in mind to use in the future, but not actually tried it out myself yet!, but I think it should work quite well. You can get it from most Garden and DIY Centres. Take care and stay safe mate, now go wash your friggin' hands, again! lol ...Cheers. Les.

[@GalgormHall]

Thanks Les, I haven’t heard of copper foil tape but I’ll check it out the next time I’m in the garden centre. Wash my hands? Those are hard working money earning hands. 😆 Paul

[@47606odin]

Looks great mate. Needs a clock and kettle

[@GalgormHall]

Thanks Ian, I really do, the one thing they don’t have in the kit is a kettle, the clock I have but overlooked it on the sprue. 🙄 Paul

[@thescrapline4905]

The master of scratch building. Incredible work. It's such a shame I chose early 90s. Ten years earlier I would of had 2 stunning boxes at Exeter I would of scratch built.

[@GalgormHall]

I’d really liked to have seen those boxes on your layout, two stunning examples and such a loss to the layout. Damn those time periods we work within. 😆 Paul

Looking forward to more great modeling now Galgorm Hall

[@BoxcarJerry]

Hello I'm checking out your channel on a suggestion from Schuylkill River Valley ( John ) . Outstanding job on the building . It's almost a shame to put a roof over it . Are they oil paints you used on the floor ? Thanks for sharing and look forward to learning more . Take care . Jerry

[@GalgormHall]

Hi Jerry, thank you for visiting and commenting. The roof will be removable so the viewer can get an occasional glimpse of the interior. The flooring was painted using enamel paints by Humbrol, Revell and Airfix. Hope that helps. Paul

[@MalcolmCrabbe]

Paul, I would suggest getting some aluminum foil tape rather than duct tape, It moulds like lead flashing, and is incredibly adhesive.

[@GalgormHall]

Thanks Malcolm, that’s a good shout and I’ll certainly hunt it out. Paul

[@brianwatson4716]

Fantastic Paul, wish I could create my models as you.

[@GalgormHall]

Thank you Brian, give it a go and you might surprise yourself. My aim with these videos is to show you step by step so you can reproduce them too. Paul

[@murdochm4847]

,Hi Paul. Thank you for the technique of using duct tape for the ridge tiles. My modelling is not quite the same skill level as yours, but the ridge tiles hide a multitude of sines.

[@GalgormHall]

Thanks you. Don’t worry about your skill levels, we are all learning in this game and editing my videos also hide a multitude of sins. 😆 Paul

[@clivecobbold6815]

Hi Paul another great video and a great builded of the single box oh I am thinking of building a 80 class 3 car set I have spares lima mk2b tso coaches to build it I will have to get a hornby class73 loco to build it I have not built a 80 class for 33 years it would be interesting to see how it would turn out after so many years mate stay safe and well Paul clive

[@GalgormHall]

Thanks Clive, keep me posted on the Class 80 Build. Perhaps it would be easier doing two at the same time, one for you and one for me. 😉 Paul

[@clivecobbold6815]

@@GalgormHall hi Paul well I am working on my mk2c conversion at the moment it would be a easy to build a 80class along side the mk2c fo/fk/tso coaches as a lot of the work is the same except the 80 class power car we will see what happens Paul as I said I need a hornby class73 to power the 80class power car I do not have one at the moment clive
