Wow Charlie, that is truly amazing! One of your best informative videos and a real pleasure to watch! Putting my iPad away and going to have another look this afternoon on the TV. One thing, suggest you get a tee-shirt manufacturer to sponsor you, freebies galore and you can ruin them to your heart’s content. Enjoy your upcoming trips.
You call that ruining a shirt? When I was into RC planes, I dripped 30 minute epoxy right on the shirt pocket of the Co. I worked for! Guess that’ll be my RR scenery shirt! BTW, I really enjoyed the work in progress. Take care, I’m ready for your next adventure... P.S. Oh, oh oh! Just remembered something. Charlie, don’t forget the cow pies amongst the cows! Or as we call them... mine fields! You have to be careful where you step!
Sorry to be so off topic but does someone know of a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any help you can offer me
Hi Charlie, This is another very informative and constructed tutorial. This video is 4 years old, but it is still up-to-date. You do a great job promoting this fabulous hobby
Thanks Charlie my husband and I have decided to start a model railway and we have been watching your videos with much enjoyment love that you leave in the bloopers and the little added comments at the bottom of the screen and as well as learning great tips you are entertaining us and make the gaining of knowledge pleasurable THANK YOU Sylvia & Tony Tuffley model railway to be
@@ChadwickModelRailway yep real good aim 68 and to late in life to start my own railway and no room thanks for your reply i will keep watching bloody good peter
Something of a Johnny Come-Lately here I know but this series on the viaduct board has been wonderful, relaxing viewing which also mages to inform and inspire. As a 70 year old who is planning his first layout since childhood days, an Inglenook shunting of some sort to enjoy with my grandchildren as well as just play trains, your videos, along with the many other excellent model railway RUclipsrs, are a superb source of ideas and techniques. I have no doubt that I will make a wealth of mistakes when I start my layout but never mind as it will be fun and will certainly get the creative juices flowing. Thanks for this and all your videos,
Fair play to you Charlie for your determination on this project. I was getting frustrated at times and I was only watching it. Absolutely brilliant finish and an enjoyable journey with you watching this unfold. Keep up the good work pal. Love it Kevin
Charlie, greetings from upstate NY. That was an awesome presentation. It cleared up a lot of questions that I've had about modelling this kind of expansive rural terrain. Thanks. I think your trees are among the best I've seen, they are ultra realistic. Great presentation style as well. Luke Towan is a source of inspiration for me as well. Vines crawling up the viaduct pillars would be a nice touch I think. Our fields have more trees between them than bushes, tree rows more than hedge rows. The older fields are often demarcated by hand laid stone fences, particularly in neighbouring New England. I don't have a layout started yet, just a small test track. Getting back into the hobby after more years away than I care to remember, I'm concentrating on updating and repairing old rolling stock and power which are all DC at the moment. A friend from down south is supplying me with virtually free freight and passenger cars as well as a plethora of ancient Athearn EMD F-7s. The shells will fit newer chassis so work on them won't go to waste. I have a lot of videos shot that are awaiting edit and upload. Unfortunately, it takes more time to set up the shots and edit it all into coherent videos than it takes to do the actual modifications. I have managed to get a few videos up on the Tube though. BTW: Around 1975, I spent a week in London and visited Madenhead (Cosworth), Brands Hatch and Goodwood. I met many wonderful people and got to hang out with the great Derek Bell at Goodwood circuit. I fell in love with England. My grandmother was a Drake and a descendant of Sir. Francis so there's some family history there! Alas, I have never gotten a chance to go back. Thanks and regards, - Dave
Brilliant video. Very inspiring for a returning modeller after 50 yrs away. I appreciate the sharing of your experience warts and all, and yes I am a subscriber. :-) 👍
@Iain Botham I'm planning on doing a tiny mine on the edge/side of my T Gauge layout, but I don't know if it would be too small to see (1:450 scale - 3x smaller than N Scale - 1:150 scale)!
I got an empty loft planned for next year as had to pay for my daughter's wedding this year, but I've been watching your videos intently and learning new stuff along the way, bit nervously looking forward to it but thankyou for your great video's.
Good teachers don't cover their mistakes... They're honest and use them to inform their students of any possible pitfalls... Seeing is believing... Thanks to that honesty, I learned, apart from how to make a cracking tree, that even those with the best of skill are going to get covered in stuff so 'wear old clothes'. If Charlie gets that much on him with his skills, I'd need to be wearing a boilersuit and facemask if I attempted it. Even then I'd probably still glue some part of myself to something. It's good that he's transparent with these things. :)
Bravo. Gorgeous. Looks just like the British videos I so enjoy on RUclips. I, too, have a T-shirt and it's just what it looks like: blue paint in the shape of a paint roller. Nicely enjoyed from the beginning. Thanks.
Hello, wow, what a delight that was. That was a marvelous video to end that particular series with. I'm kinda sad that it has to end. I very much look forward to whatever you have up your sleeve for the next series. Take care of yourself. Bye for now.
Hello Charlie i like you a lot because you are a very talented man,but you dont come over all big headed.Watching you work and hearing you speak is a joy,and your vids are some of the best ive watched on here.What you have made looks great and i love it :)
Hello from America! I have watched several of your videos so far and have learned something useful to this HO scale modeler in each video. The fact you use products made by American companies (Woodland Scenics, 3M, Envirotex, Mod-Podge) will make sourcing the products much easier. As per usual I learned from this video. This time I was intrigued by your tree assembly and painting methods. Simple using readily available items and a few steps to a fantastic tree. Here in the states we have black poly-fiber (same as the white used in pillows) and I will try using it instead of the sea foam on the tree branches. I'm hoping it will eliminate a painting step. Again, thanks for teaching this old modeler a few new tricks.
Hallo Charly! Wonderful landscape! It's a great pleasure to whatch your videos! It's so astonishing! It remembers me of old an railway at the borderline Germany/Belgium near Aachen from Eupen to Luxembourg through the wilderness of the Eifel! Friendly greetings from Cologne!
Really nice, and coming together nicely. On the frugal front, I'll share something from an Australian chap named Peter--he makes rocks, particularly those around water, by crumbling 6-8mm coark sheets. The effect is stunning, as the cork breaks up into rocky bits, and accepts paint reasonably well ithout being over-uniform.
Just got through watching your Viaduct Landscaping video. When the water was done before you put in the ripples I thought it was brilliant looking. Then you scared me by putting all that white stuff on top of a beautiful mirrored finish. But the next day when it all dried out it really did look good. I like your style and sense of humor. Open without cable TV so most of my down time is spent on RUclips looking at train platforms. Now that's old school. Model railroading I guess this is what it should be called.
Very nice Charlie,The viaduct looks like it was built into the valley by the railway. The trees are really ace,. even more so while the rest of us are watching T.V. in the evenings your building trees. If you hadn't said I would have thought you'd dropped your cream doughnut down your front. Take care, Cheers, Chris Perry.
Thank you for sharing your skills. For those like me who are just starting out, they are so helpful. I particularly like the rocks on either side of the river.
Hi Charlie, yes indeed have watched your Wiring the DCC bus, many thanks for prompt reply, it’s understanding of say laying points end to end using frog insulators, ie say even fiddle yard. Kind regards Eddie. Excellent channel! 🤓
Charlie, absolutely fantastic the way that the Viaduct turned out, it's Your work, along with a few others, that keep me working on my own Layout. Looking for Your next installment, Ray USA.
Charlie , what a beautiful job you did on your diorama 😄. I am very happy that you kept the smaller bridge as well .... they go great 👍 together!!! And that big beautiful tree 🌳 in the front... that really makes your scene come to live. Please remember to add people too !!! Again what I pleasure watching your video!!! Great job Charlie !! 😄. Kraig
Looks really good Charlie job well done have enjoyed watching this project thank you so much...I never liked doing scenery upto about 2 years ago now it's my favourite part of the hobby right next to scratch building locomotives
I think the river looked better with a mirror finish personally. Where I live we have a river that is miles long but has a surface like a mill pond. The reflection of the viaduct in the water lookeed stunning. Your landscape looks very good indeed.
Tell you what Charlie, you've done a super job! You do seem to always have the right tool for the job. I'd never have thought a Aldi blowlamp could be used that way!! Well done mate, regards Terry.
Charlie,this is without any doubt one of the best rail channels that I have viewed. I have a 70ft layout up in my loft ( was a bedroom ) however I have vastly in proved it simply because of your excellent vids and expertise.many thanks for your time , effort & terrific knowledge.
I see the grey bridge over the river as being red or dirty yellow brick colour. As it is, I fancy it looks somewhat unfinished. You do brilliant work and induce a confidence, in me anyway. I 'DO' click the 👍🏻 up button. DAVE C🦉
I absolutely enjoy the "mistakes" that you leave in the videos. We are all human in the area of making mistakes and, admitting your short comings and leaving them in for all of us to see, just proves that you and I/we are basically the same in that regard. It's that humor that really keeps things fresh and interesting. Thanks for being you and keep the videos coming.
Hi Charlie. What an amazing job you have done on the viaduct & landscape. You saved the best till last I have followed you on this path, every video as been very informative I will watch this video again I am in awe of what you have achieved it is totally amazing. Regards George.....
The perfect video the viaduct build. I'm going to do one with a curve in it into my helix up five laps to the main level it's going to look real cool I love your viaduct I learned a lot glad I found your channel sir
I've got an old Dual gauge model railway Layout that was made by a member at my local museum. He passed away 25 years ago and I've taken the layout in to finish it. I've never done a layout before and I'm very thankful for finding this video. You've taught me several tips, tricks, and supplies to use to help make my layout look amazing. You've got my thanks.
Always enjoy your videos Charlie and this was one of the best. I learned a lot and it will definitely help with my layout. Thank you for all you video's, unlike some, you are not scared to show your work warts and all!!! Long may you continue. Thanks again.
Wonderful video. The first time I have seen your videos was this evening and I am most impressed. I will undoubtedly be watching a lot of them in the next few weeks!
@@ChadwickModelRailway I'm returning to model railways after a 30 year hiatus...so these videos are perfect for me to get my juices flowing :) thanks again.
Fantastic video and very comprehensive tutorial. Very brave with the water! Like you I find that after spending a fortune on every tool under the sun, the best results come from a wet finger!!!! Likewise, I spray all my bushes (lichen works great with the scatter and leaves) and trees black first. It produces so much better depth and contrast. Like you I observe that as you look at trees the underlying colour is black and I am still searching for a tree with a brown trunk! I am really liking where this diorama is going. Keep up the good work, it is paying off in spade fulls. Big thumbs up!
Nice video Charlie. I've made river and pond effects with resin by doing it in layers. The first layer uses more dye of dark blue-green. Then another layer with less dye . Then a third layer of with less dye of light green. This give a look of depth to the water.
Thank you for sharing your process, your discoveries and your uncertianities... that gives me more confidence to try it myself... Of course I like the bridge and the whole diorama! BTW: Thank you for deleting inappropriately worded comments - there is no need to use those words even if you disagree with something or someone. Additionally, that means I can safely to recommend this video to my friends and acquaintences etc.. Nice work sir...
A fabulous construction and has inspired me to start modelling again, now nearing retirement and having time. You have a really nice presentation style (though I suspect that is you are rather than a style). I really enjoy the way you present the steps in a very affable manner, all the skills, hints and that you include the minor errors! Thank you for the very informative entertainment!
That is fantastic. The way the ripples worked on the river was like magic it looks spot on. Both the trees are excellent and you are right the tractor really adds scale to the whole scene.
A joy to watch. You're a natural presenter and a very talented model maker. The level of detail is superb as is your exposition. One of the few channels I don't watch at an accelerated frame rate!
As a new Subscriber and watcher of your channel, it is refreshing to find such a wealth of knowledge being passed on. I live in the South Australian outback town of Peterborough SA, and it is a town with a rich heritage in steam. We even have an attraction in town called "Steamtown". I am building my first scratch build lay-out and find these videos very helpful. I enjoy your presentation style and adore your lay-out.
Wonderful piece of modelling, every process well documented.....I used woodland scenics realistic water on my canal, as the mixing process I didn't have the worry.....
Wow Charlie, that is truly amazing! One of your best informative videos and a real pleasure to watch! Putting my iPad away and going to have another look this afternoon on the TV.

Great stuff Charlie the trees are amazing.
Thanks Stephen .
Wonderful video. The first time I have seen your videos was this evening and I am most impressed. I will undoubtedly be watching a lot of them in the next few weeks!
It’s great to have you on-board Mr grey
Catching up on your video's whilst working from home !!. Great work. Love your videos. Great work and great explanations....thanks :)
What a heart warming comment Robin. Stay safe. Regards Charlie
@@ChadwickModelRailway I'm returning to model railways after a 30 year hiatus...so these videos are perfect for me to get my juices flowing :) thanks again.
I also like your trees they look very real .It reminds me of when I was at school someone asked me what sort of tree is that I said a wooden one
They were a challenge though.
Fantastic video and very comprehensive tutorial. Very brave with the water!
Like you I find that after spending a fortune on every tool under the sun, the best results come from a wet finger!!!!
Likewise, I spray all my bushes (lichen works great with the scatter and leaves) and trees black first. It produces so much better depth and contrast. Like you I observe that as you look at trees the underlying colour is black and I am still searching for a tree with a brown trunk!
I am really liking where this diorama is going. Keep up the good work, it is paying off in spade fulls.
Big thumbs up!
Thanks Malcolm, it’s comments such as yours that make it worthwhile
Hi Charlie yet another fantastic video really gave me some ideas thank you keep up the great work, and watch those tee shirts lol
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it Jon. Regards Charlie
Nice video Charlie. I've made river and pond effects with resin by doing it in layers. The first layer uses more dye of dark blue-green. Then another layer with less dye . Then a third layer of with less dye of light green. This give a look of depth to the water.
Thanks, good tip
Looks awesome Charlie! Inspiring!
Thanks Damon

Good for you Dave and good luck.

Many thanks Onno
A fabulous construction and has inspired me to start modelling again, now nearing retirement and having time. You have a really nice presentation style (though I suspect that is you are rather than a style). I really enjoy the way you present the steps in a very affable manner, all the skills, hints and that you include the minor errors! Thank you for the very informative entertainment!
Thanks BH, it’s great to have you onboard. Regards Charlie
I Think you have created some really effective prospective there Charlie😊 great modeling! Thankyou for your content 👍🏻
You’re too kind SC
Great work and great presentation style 👍.
Thanks Leigh
Absolutely wonderful, I am very impressed. How can anyone give a thumbs down?
Because they can Robert. But I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it.
That is fantastic. The way the ripples worked on the river was like magic it looks spot on. Both the trees are excellent and you are right the tractor really adds scale to the whole scene.
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it David.
A joy to watch. You're a natural presenter and a very talented model maker. The level of detail is superb as is your exposition. One of the few channels I don't watch at an accelerated frame rate!
Thanks Paul, it’s comments such as yours that make it worthwhile
Looks superb Charlie
Thanks Andrew
Yet another awesome video Charlie. I am sure this will give others the confidence to try your method(s) of scenery production. Many thanks
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it Murray
As a new Subscriber and watcher of your channel, it is refreshing to find such a wealth of knowledge being passed on. I live in the South Australian outback town of Peterborough SA, and it is a town with a rich heritage in steam. We even have an attraction in town called "Steamtown". I am building my first scratch build lay-out and find these videos very helpful. I enjoy your presentation style and adore your lay-out.
Thanks Drew, I’m so pleased that you enjoyed the video
Charlie, I am still at the bare baseboard stage, what you are doing is great - giving me great inspiration and ideas, thanks!
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it David.
Wonderful piece of modelling, every process well documented.....I used woodland scenics realistic water on my canal, as the mixing process I didn't have the worry.....
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it Richard
Charlie, great video, that scene looks fantastic, can't wait to see trains running across the viaduct and the farm animals on the front fields.
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it Chris
