Custom HO Scale ScaleTrains Rivet Counter BNSF Dash 9-44CW #4729 "Frankenbonnet"
Thank you all for all of the support and kind words over on my Instagram for the last 4729 I made. As promised here is the feature video as well as the eBay listing towards the bottom of this description. As for my subscribers here on RUclips, thank you all so much for the kind words and support from the last video. As mentioned in the video I plan to film another how-to weather a locomotive video with some updated techniques here very soon. I apologize for the not so brief hiatus I took but I plan on making at least a video a month as long as my schedule permits. I hope you all enjoy this video and I look forward to seeing you all in the next one.

Weathering an HO Scale Locomotive: Athearn Genesis BNSF Dash 9
Просмотров 55 тыс.Год назад
Recently I documented the weathering process from an almost straight out of the box locomotive to one thats made to look like it's seen over 20 years on the road.

      Also noticed the Montana- based layout. Love driving through Montana and seeing all that stuff. Delivered lumber in Bozeman a couple weeks ago and unloaded next to a couple of idling EMDs and it was cool. Working on my rookie layout based in Illinois / Missouri, but next I want to build an MRL (RIP)/BNSF layout based on the line between St.Regis, Paradise, and Thompson Falls.

  • @beeble2003
    @beeble2003 7 месяцев назад

    Looks good at arm's length but I think you went way too heavy on the trucks and fuel tank -- especially all that thick brown overspray from doing the trucks. Road vehicles splash dirt up the sides from the wheels because the wheels come right to the edge of the vehicle; rail wheels are ~5ft apart under a vehicle that's ~10ft wide, so you don't get splashing like that.

  • @OhioCentralModeler
    @OhioCentralModeler 10 месяцев назад

    I model spring/summer 2008, and while the FRA reflective tape became mandatory in 2005, there were timetables for implementation that didn't mandate every single locomotive and piece of rolling stock get them overnight. 100% implementation on all rolling stock wasn't required until 2015 (2010 for locomotives), so I actually have a mix of cars that have and don't have the stripes in my fleet. For the most part I use prototype photos to determine if the item I'm currently working on would have had them, and if so where.

    • @kylescustomtrains
      @kylescustomtrains Год назад

      Recently I've had more luck with an sand/tan color paint which looks pretty much the same as a white fade with less paint clumps visible. I'd say a few coats of that would work just as well if not better on yellow than white would

    • @beeble2003
      @beeble2003 7 месяцев назад

      @@kylescustomtrains If you're getting clumping on a fade coat, dilute the paint more, and use a high-quality modelling acrylic like Tamiya or Vallejo. I find that gives a much more uniform result than random craft acrylics.

    Do you do anything to protect the electrical components in the wheel sets during weathering or have to do anything afterward to ensure good electrical connection between track & locomotive?

    • @kylescustomtrains
      @kylescustomtrains Год назад

      Often times I will have to clean the wheels on the locomotive if too much paint finds it's way back there, although it isn't too difficult to remove with a little bit of rubbing alcohol and a q-tip
