What a superb and awe-inspiring canopy you have created. I’ve never worked in this material before and your tips make it look as though it would be worth my effort. A superb result. Thank you for sharing your techniques. 👍👍

You have some skills, but a great deal of patience constructing and painting those canopies.

[@greatdeltan6556]

I’m really impressed with the way you have tackled your station canopies. They look great and are worth all the work as you have something unique to you and your layout . Very well done. Hugh

Wow what a transformation , one of the best stations I've seen . The lights look so good , well the whole station looks good .

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thank you so much!

[@wimbletrain]

That looks absolutely fantastic!

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thank you :)

[@LeeGreenwood1980]

Fantastic work. I’m currently forming my platforms and will be following a similar route with the canopy, although I’m thinking quite a large overall roof in the middle and canopies along the remainder of the platforms. Seeing your video has helped me visualise the steps I need to take. I think I’ll need to put catenary in before canopies though.

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thank you:) glad it has helped, I'll keep an eye out for your over roof build

[@TheHeritageLine]

Wow! what a brilliant update! Great attention to detail! great find with the station seating and I'm so pleased you added bins this is so often missed by many modellers. The lighting looks spot on and really makes it come to life! I can appreciate how long this must have took as it's all the little details that also take a lot of time but the outcome was well worth the effort! All the best Tony

[@greatdeltan6556]

Had to have Bins! Thank you for the comment :)

[@karlsage3064]

Congratulations Dan, a really impressive build! All your hard work has produced a realistic modern station. The lighting brings it all to life! Amazing!

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thank you very muxh:)

[@georgethomas7814]

Yet again I am stunned at the detail that you have in your N gauge layout. Exceptional standard. Thank you for sharing. Why no overlap on the roofing to cover the platform

[@greatdeltan6556]

I need access to clean the track manually

[@stephenpearce7058]

Very good innovative model. 👍😃

Superb modelling skill

[@moorlandmodelrailwayandy]

What a fabulous build it looks absolutely amazing. You've definitely got lots of patience to construct with so much detail in that scale. The photos at the end in some cases looked like they were taken at a real station. Great watch atb Andy

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thank you :) I thought that too of a couple if photos !

[@MossdaleNGaugeRailway]

Great work on the roof, the lighting just finishes it off perfectly. Hope to see some night time running soon.

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thank you! A little night time running session will come soon

Hi I model model modern Japanese N here in the UK one of the manufacturers TOMIX are bringing out some modern footbridges with added elevators in a couple of months the Japanese use 1/150 so look fine on UK outline

[@greatdeltan6556]

Cheers!

[@piccadillymodelrailways]

Superb job, and is certainly looking the part. Yes quality modelling does take a VERY long time, but always worth it. One request please, is it possible to move the camera very slowly as is difficult to see what youve achieved. Thank you

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thank you very much :) and yes I'll take that on board for future videos

[@PaulSmith-pl7fo]

Hi Dan. The station canopies (and the platform 'accessories') have turned out rather well. I worry that the rain will fall between the gaps in the corrugated roofing and the passengers will get wet! Please slow down when you are making a panning shot as it is unpleasant for the viewers.

[@greatdeltan6556]

Virgin trains are aware of the holes in the roof aha, and yes I'll note that :)

[@jug6760]

wow

[@greatdeltan6556]

Thanks! :)

[@Chris-BognorRegis]

The opening shot of the platform is awesome, you have done a really good job there Dan. I dont recall seeing a video on you changing the platform surfaces, how have you done it and what did you use? Who makes the N gauge sheeting? Video so good the length did not matter Dan. Regards Chris

[@greatdeltan6556]

I used scale model scenery sheeting and edging strips :)

[@CloneRanger]

Bro, fantastic job on the layout, but please slow down when you pan accross the layout. It's very hard to see all of your work when the camera doesn't have time to focus in.

[@mtty1988]

Have you any videos on how you made the platform and added the lyellow lines

[@greatdeltan6556]

There is a video further back regarding how I made the platform base, the top is surfaced with sheets by scale model scenery
