You say you hope we didn't find the video to be too long... Hardly. These are so enjoyable. I love the process and the scenery that comes from it.The entire world you are creating is wonderful.
Norm, great work as always. Every time I watch one of your videos it inspires me to work on my layout. It would be great to see how you use your 3d printer to make parts
Excellent vid Norm Thankyou! With the trains becoming so detailed it's only fitting the buildings and landscapes should follow. Yours makes the trains secondary. The dinner in "Nighthawks" was done by "Boomer Dioramas" on RUclips... another artist on a higher level. You people inspire us all to do better. Thanks again for all you do. 👍😃
I love the building (I've got that DPM building ) You've done a great job . I think another smaller shelf with cups between the bathroom door and wall switch . Keep up the great work .
Very nice build !! Resin printers are such a game changer. I mostly do military modeling and dioramas, but what you can do is only limited by your imagination. Tinker CAD is such a quick and dirty program for the bulk of drawing up components but my goal is to get better at Fusion 360. You can detail out your parts so much better with soft edges radii and such. Well done sir !!!
Ok, Norm - you've taken interior builds to the next level! Keep doing these clinics, and we'll all learn how to up our own build qualities. Great work, and thanks!
I'm with you, I like that residential holdout in the business district. It adds contrast and a sense of how things have changed over time, aka implying history. We had couple of those in my home town that lasted well into the 90's when some shady dealings made financing easier to get, and most were quickly torn down - though one did get relocated to a residential neighborhood. As for the video length, I don't usually have the time to watch something so long. But I really don't know how you could have cut the time down any more. Everything was so fascinating, I don't know how you could have left any of it out.
Your workmanship is outstanding. The video was not too long. I enjoyed every minute of it. You have done a very professional job on this entire layout.
Love the building. The faded painted fresh coffee billboard on the side is great. There’s a real building in my town. When they were stripping away the first layer of paint. They came across a billboard sign like that on the first layer. They left it and restored the rest of the building around it. Looks great. Your layout definitely has that old presence feel. Thanks for sharing. Ken
Wow... just wow! You've outdone yourself yet again! You continue to blow our minds with an unmatched level of detail. Truly appreciate you making these videos. They are so enjoyable! - Ryan
I remember saying in one of you videos that you just can't make a short video anymore! Well, some of these are more than short enough, I enjoy your videos so much I watch them over and over again!
Impressive artistical details and you’ve eliminated them wonderfully for viewing both “day and night”. I enjoyed every moment of this video, your creativity is never boring.
Absolutely love this video! I really enjoy watching you make the buildings and all the little interior pieces of furniture and all the accessories. More of these please ❤
I appreciate your videos on the buildings, it helps me get better ideas for my stuff. I really like tinkering with led lighting and am continuing to hone my skills, my big issue is getting wires small enough and getting them where I need them. I have a 3d printer but have a lot of learning to do on that as well. Thanks for the info!
That building, and all you others look wonderful. I don't have the tools you have to work with, but I do some interior work on the buildings on my layout. This gave me some good ideas, thank you.
Great result, nice attention to details. May I suggest something? Why not to make an abandoned builfing? maybe after fire. Like empty brick "box" with burned sealing and crumbled roof with loots of weed around.Every town always got some abandoned buildings and I didn't seen sny on dioramas) Sorry for bad english.
lol can I rent out that top apartment?--greasy spoon burgers --cheap booze and beer in a dive bar----and the lady in red on the corner and of course trains
I have been using the cheap-o LM317-based adjustable ones. I prefer the ones that take AC in so I can run them off my accessory bus. You can get these for less than $3 apiece on eBay, Amazon, etc.
@normstrains appreciate you, bro!! BTW, please stop downplaying the importance and value you add to the community. All of us love everything you provide to the community! I am building my 1st ever layout and I have watched all your videos! My wife and I love your content and the community loves it as well! Your rock! 💪🏾

agree, would actually like longer ones, fantastic build and detail
Great video! Looking forward to next project x

Wow the most detailed layout i have ever seen. Great job.
I’m totally blown away…words can’t describe the amazing modeling quality you have installed into this building. Outstanding!
That Cafe and Apartment came out great Norm, that lit
Cafe sign was the cherry on top!! Awesome!!!
Just fantastic. The interior of the diner really does look like an Edward Hopper painting. Thank you Norm.
GENIUS! MAGNIFICENT WORK NORM
I can almost smell the cheese burgers on the grill! It's always a treat when you post a video. Thank you.
Great work, really fun build. Thanks again for these great videos. Masterclass stuff.
Your attention to detail is incredible, and these videos showing the process are just captivating.
Another stunning interior, loved every minute of this video.
You are a detailing wizard! Awesome! 👍
Best minis around!!! Thanks for the awesome content, Norm!
That just blows my mind. That is awesome
The problem with you Norm is you don't know just how good you are. Clever beyond belief.
I love your building episodes. More of them please. 😊 Greetings from Germany.

Stellar, another fine build by Norm. I love the way you’re fleshing out the layout. Thanks for bringing us along. 👍🏻
You do beautiful work. Really enjoy your build videos.
The rug really tied the room together
I love the building (I've got that DPM building ) You've done a great job . I think another smaller shelf with cups between the bathroom door and wall switch . Keep up the great work .
Brilliantly executed as usual!
MAN!!! You outdid yourself on this one!!!!
Another wonderful tutorial, Norm! Thanks so much for taking the time to share your master modeler techniques with us.
" He better not be at the train store tonight ...." 😂
I don't have the space for anything like this but these videos keep me sane while I'm working. Attention to detail is fantastic. Thank you 🙂
Excellent detail work.
This was great! I wish I had your talent and equipment!
Fantastic Norm!
Wow - insane work. Fantastic.
Wow, incredible
Truly admire all your hard work and time to "super detail" this DPM model structure ...
Very nice build !! Resin printers are such a game changer. I mostly do military modeling and dioramas, but what you can do is only limited by your imagination.

I think I downloaded Fusion 360 but Tinkercad is so dang fast and easy!
@@normstrains yes it is. Exactly why I still haven’t mastered Fusion 🤣🤣
mesmerized...
That rug really ties the room together.
😂
Awesome as always, love it.
Great video. You're an artist. I love your videos.
Looks Fantastic Norm! Love the interior Retro details.
that town looks like the perfect set for a 50's film noir--great stuff

The video is not too long. I always enjoy watching your projects. You are very skillful and creative with all of your modeling.
Cool interiors i don't think you give yourself enough credit. Those are some of the best interiors i have seen very realistic and well thought out.
Absolutely beautiful. Work like this breathes new life into O scale.
I envy your 3D ability. It is the one area I have yet to acquire any skills. Thx
Norm, you do some GREAT STUFF! ALWAYS look forward to your videos and watch every second. Thankyou.👍
Outstanding and again the bar has been raised.
I remember saying in one of you videos that you just can't make a short video anymore! Well, some of these are more than short enough, I enjoy your videos so much I watch them over and over again!
fantastic work.. great video..
Tremendous work! Structure looks amazing now!

Damn brother, that’s amazing work
AWESOME 😊

If you check out my Northbrook Shops vids I showed the use of 32AWG magnet wire for connecting SMD LEDs.
Will do!
Love your videos! I wish you would show the process of each step. None the less, every detail nailed!
Wonderful! It's great to see it coming together...so many lovely details...so realistic, thanks for sharing :)
I would love to see a video on your process of modeling objects to print. I struggle getting things the right size too lol
That building, and all you others look wonderful. I don't have the tools you have to work with, but I do some interior work on the buildings on my layout. This gave me some good ideas, thank you.
The world’s greatest modeler… 🙏🏻
Excellent! 👍👍
Awesome video 👏
WOW... Im speechless.....
have not even clicked it yet, you make great video's. going to grab a beer and sit back. You are Professional 100%
You should put a flickering TV in the living room!
Wow!!!!! Nice job!!!!!
Amazing 👍🏼
Great result, nice attention to details. May I suggest something?
Why not to make an abandoned builfing? maybe after fire. Like empty brick "box" with burned sealing and crumbled roof with loots of weed around.Every town always got some abandoned buildings and I didn't seen sny on dioramas)
Sorry for bad english.
Thanks!
🤩
Its Norm!
Those building roofs are a little too clean. Some bird life would change that.
Where did you get the led lights? Great video!! So much details!!!
Amazon and eBay are good sources.
as a wargamer you train guys have forgotten more than most of us will ever learn in terrain making
I love watching the war gamers and military modelers for their techniques. I’ve been using the ideas to step up my efforts.
Awesome been waiting for more videos
Great detail
You have an amazing talent
Great talent and video Norm. What is the green board in your shop with measurements and where could I find one?
Amazon or eBay, just look up self healing cutting mat.
Ahh classic scale!
Did you put ash trays on the diner’s tables? Really great work!
It’s the one thing I forgot 😢
Very cool 👍🤠👍
lol can I rent out that top apartment?--greasy spoon burgers --cheap booze and beer in a dive bar----and the lady in red on the corner and of course trains
Nice work Norm, what brand of LED’s are you using and what gauge wire? Great thought processing from inside to outside. Thanks for sharing.
No idea on the brand. I just search for 0402 SMD LED and go from there. I use 32awg magnet wire mostly.
@@normstrains Thank you!
Love your build videos. What do you use for a power supply? Is it a dc buck and where can I get them?
I have been using the cheap-o LM317-based adjustable ones. I prefer the ones that take AC in so I can run them off my accessory bus. You can get these for less than $3 apiece on eBay, Amazon, etc.
Norm!
Okay I'll play, "How you doing Norm?"
Nice video norm!
Have you ever put the exterior stars for the upstairs band board ?
Where’s the sand lot?!
Looks awesome 👌 👏 👍 🚂🚃🚃
were you a Hollywood set designer?
Norm, could you do a video on building a coal load?
Maybe next time I run some hoppers through the shop!
