Thank you. Great idea with the foam tape.
The oil drips are the icing on the cake. One of the best road crossings I’ve seen on YT. Well done. -Mark
Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing. Keep it going.
Excellent!! Love how you did the stripes, great processI never thought to bring the road up to the crossing. Can't wait for the crossing video
Great video. I loved how you did the center stripe and stop line.
I'm gonna use your method for an N Scale parking lot near my locomotive facility. Love the paint color for the road. It's the best I've ever seen! Sponges and some "Fawn/Tan" paint on order from Amazon. lol
Great video, the crossing looks great thanks for sharing.....
Nice tutorial ... well done, and very convincing roadwork!
Excellent project!! Can't thank you enough for sharing this video

Very nice. You Made it look easy and fun to do...!
that came out looking very nice, thanks for sharing
THANK YOU...for sharing. Looks really nice.
Loving your work Steve!
Nice work Cam! Roads are tricky I feel but you have nailed it ! The sponge is a great idea and I will be using that for sure! Great work and I will be watching more as you progress.
Cheers, Gregg.
Thanks, Gregg! It's nice when things work out like you envision.

Fantastic job on the road crossing keep up the great work and keep those videos coming
Great job . That looks fantastic.. I will need to save this video for future reference.
Great work, looks very nice!
Hey Mark my hats off to you very nice
Looks great Cam. Enjoy the day. Ray L
Very nice job looking good
Like the weathered/worn traffic lines. Gonna try that myself. Looks much more realistic.
I like what you do
Awesome!
Looks awesome. Great tutorial!
Thanks for the how to video - Great job !
Great video! Thanks for sharing your techniques, might have a certain BNSF Beer car😉 rolling through some new crossings soon!
Nice. Very well done.
Very nice job! F.Y.I.: The stop bar should be two (scale) feet wide. Each double yellow line is four (scale) inches wide with a four inch space between each line. Some jurisdictions use six inch wide lines instead of four inch. (Former highway department employee here!)
That's cool! Me and my dad a while ago just painted the actual set up black and added decals
Nice! There are definitely many ways to do it.

Very well done. I’d personally shoot for a much warmer amber colored center stripe but the pavement looks awesome and the tip about the VHB tape and the Patch plus Primer from 3m.
Thanks! If I watched this video for the first time, I would agree too. My video camera makes it look much closer to green on the color spectrum, but I can assure you that in person it looks like a deep yellow. It's not as amber as some newly painted roads are, but it definitely looks better than the video makes it seem. And what's funny is that I didn't even realize that both the tape and plaster are 3M products. I guess I like their stuff, haha.

Cool vid thanks for sharing 😃
that Looks Fantastic
Awesome video this is a 10 star video ************
Love it like to see more
Great job!
Great video.
Well done video, layout looking great - have you started on the yards and loops in the back room?
Typically each lane is 12ft wide on major highways and 10ft wide on rural streets. So that being said 2 12ft lanes in HO Scale is about 3in not including shoulders. 4in is stretching it a little bit but your prototype looks to be about 30ft across coming to about 4in. Keep up the awesome scenery!!
Just found you on RUclips....love this video...do you use the same stuff for making your roads?
Looks good
Great video, I was wondering though, what brand/where did you get those metal plates for the crossing??
Well done...simply fantastic! One thing I always notice that kinda rubs me the wrong way is when I see a layout with the road dramatically rising up that last inch or so to meet the tracks at a level crossing....grrr. Another possible alternative to creating the road shoulders would be to use wood shims. They can create a very subtle, more realistic downslope and the shims are easy to cut and work with...just a thought.
I know Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account??
I was dumb lost the login password. I love any tips you can offer me.
@Avi Connor Instablaster :)
@Kayden Korbin i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm trying it out atm.
Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Kayden Korbin it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account :D
@Avi Connor Glad I could help :D
How did you fill the hole left where the VHB tape was at the 6:19 mark? I do like the sponge painting technique Thanks
How on earth did you cut that tiny thin line for the center yellow line? Well Done! I had been considering masking the double yellow line but wasn't sure if I wanted to tackle it with tiny art scissors.
Is that similar to what you used? Or what works best?...Again very Nice work!
Thanks! I believe I used a metal ruler as a straight edge and cut the tape with an Xacto blade. It didn't require too much thought. I pretty much eye-balled it.

Where did you get the spacing plates from?
Better than the woodland scenics road!! I’m gonna go your route!
Question: what are your steps to laying down the paper hills next to road?
Thanks
Thanks! When making a paper scenery shell, I generally start with cardboard profile boards that I hot glue to the layout. The paper comes from a big roll of painter's paper which I once again apply with hot glue. Once that's in place, I paint it with wood glue because this waterproofs it. Finally, I add either 3M Patch + Primer or Sculptamold. Once that dries, it's ready for scenery.

Got it!
What about the R X R crossing warning on the road? I use a stencil sold by walters.
From the prototype roads I've looked at, the crossing markings are further back from the tracks than I have modeled in my 16" shelf. But, thanks for the note on the Walthers stencil. I was wondering how other people do it, and I have other roads that might require it.
-Cam
@@railfan220 Its called modeler's licence. You have one. Anything in model rr's you have to compress.
Is this layout in your home? You showed a lounge area years ago, with a tv etc... Is this a club layout? I can't find a video that explains that. Thanks, great work.
Thanks! This layout is in the house that I grew up in. The video titled "Layout Walk-Around "Tour": HO BNSF Plains Division" provides a glimpse at the rest of the basement, but that was over 3 years ago. So, things have changed a bit. I'll be sure to do another similar video soon.

What kind of tape is that on the narrow white roll?
Did you know that you could use our farm and you have to cut in half of the older get your HO scale track hight.
Your fome
What do you use to make the roads is it just any body filler?
I use 3M Patch + Primer. It’s a versatile material that I use for roads, rocks, and filler.
Great but could you give metric sizes please
you wernt lieing
