Realistic Model Railroad Scenery

In this video I take an unfinished area on the layout and transform it into an amazing looking scene. This scene looks great both for daytime and nighttime operations. The that I completed is that of an HO Scale Walthers Cornerstone Freight Depot. The freight depot is modeled after those that can be found in the Southwester United States. This depot in particular has modeled for the Santa Fe or otherwise known as the ATSF railroad. I have installed lights in the model from the Woodland Scenics Just Plug System. I also added street lights or parking lot lights from Atlas. I also added run by scenes using a cinematic approach. The engines featured in this video are SD40-2s made by ScaleTrains. Sit back and relax and enjoy the video.

Dude your layout looks so awesome!!! Love the video, your roads are great, I love how you do the cracks, do you use a dark grey paint pen to get that effect? Anyways keep up the amazing work👍

Thank you so much bro! I love to do roads. I use Sukura Micron Pens. They are perfect because of how small they are. I got the set so that I can do different cracks. I’ll make a layout video soon and show stuff in detail! Thank you for watching!
