I'm deeply sad to announce the unexpected passing of my client, Mike, whom I built this container terminal & warehouse for. So, sadly, there will be no further progress on this project or any follow-up episodes. May he rest in peace.
I’m sorry for the loss of your client
@@cullertransportation TBH I'm still pretty devastated since it was so unexpected. I miss him so much.
That looks really nice
Nice. I will refer to this video as I am doing an N scale layout and just bought a set of deep well container cars. So next will be mijacks and loading area. Your video will help me a lot. I am in Staten Island so I do not have any actual areas like this to guide me. So I am counting on things I see on RUclips. I can only hope mine looks half as good as yours.
That’s some nice weathering✨
Great progress. Looks like a fun layout to operate on.
Awesome
Awesome video. Great layout and realism.
Really fine work on the scenery and structures. I did the layout design, which was featured in Kalmbach's Model Railroad Planning 2015. That article includes some earlier photos of the layout as it was being installed. Benchwork and track were built and installed by Rick Fortin.
Why thank you! It's such a fun trackplan to run on. The serpentine hidden staging is quite a daring layout design element, but it definitely works well. More scenery progress to come soon.
Very, very nice work. That said, I must confess the terminal building extensive weathering sometimes causes my mind to think it suffered a fire. Regardless, you do great work. Thanks for sharing.
Hahaha, that's pretty funny. Honestly it was just matching the extreme wear of the sooty, rusty warehouse as it was back in the 2000's before it was painted and repaired sometime in the 2010's.
Very nice. Great video and lots of good info and references. Very nice indeed.
Wow what a great transformation. Liked and subbed.
Wow awesome bro great vid and nice layout man
Really enjoy your videos especially the layout from the 70s!
Glad to hear it! Many more in the works for you to enjoy soon.
Great video.👍👍👍
Thank you 👍
Best job in the world, need an emploee please
Wow!
It was a really fun build. Hopefully I'll be back to working on this project this spring, so more fun progress is to come on this container terminal.
Lovely build. Too bad it wont be an update. Sorry for your loss.
Thank you, I appreciate the kind words. It hit so hard because it was so unexpected. Hopefully a Future client will see this and want a container terminal of their very own like this someday.
Thanks for sharing, very interesting. What was the fence made from?
Fencing is an Alkem scale models kit. I highly recommend it!
What paint? Airbrush?
Very nice work.
Thanks so much! We used a regular Badger single action airbrush. Paint was the excellent acrylics formulated for airbrushing by Vallejo.
@@InterurbanEra I use Vellajo and 3 different brushes. It is amazing what one can do. .15 tip is just amazing in a good DA brush.
Is this layout in Sacramento? I use Tap Plastics. I building an N scale layout near there.
No, it's in the Bay Area.
Maybe I missed it but what are the dimensions of the layout?
Roughly 13½' X 23'. It's a single-car garage.
What container crane did you use?
Walthers Mijack Crane Part # 933-3122. Be sure to paint the entire model before assembly, then weather it. Too many people just build it w/o painting and it looks much too plasticky.

How long are the container tracks?
It's been a while since I was placing trains on the layout, but I think 8+ well cars deep so it'll photograph nicely.
Thank you for responding. That is very helpful. Great work, by the way!
@@jeremythompson8665 why thank you!
Do you hire out? If so what are your rates?
Yes indeed! Building model railroads is my day job. I'd enjoy hearing what you'd like me to build. Send all inquiries to Interurbanera (a t ) gmail or DM me on the Interurban Era Instagram.
