Hello Thom, your newly designed background looks great. It gives the yard a very natural look. 👍👍👍👍🍀🍀A great job from you. Wish you and your family a nice weekend and best wishes Wolfgang
@@wolfgangpfeilergartenbahnd6530 Hello Wolfgang. I hope your visit to the hospital went well. Please let me know how you are doing. This is our Thanksgiving weekend here in the US and I am taking vacation along with it so am off work all week. Best wishes to you and your family. Stay safe!
Hi Thom , we get a mid week update. Congratulations on 2000 subscribers. I hope you get many more. I always enjoy watching your videos. You have made some good progress on your scenery . Looking forward to seeing how the trains look behind the tree line. Thanks for sharing. Have a good week. 😎😎 👍
@@tommynorwood5184 you won’t have long to wait, Tommy. I think the first session looks pretty good. Thanks for your you for your nice comments. Enjoy the rest of your week and stay safe!
@@thecincinnatikid6227 the elevator will be more of a challenge for me with the pavement, but I’m getting close to starting it. Thanks for your comments, I appreciate your support. Have a great week and stay safe!
Thanks to you for sharing your hobby with me. I like very much what i see on your wonderful layout. Great job on the 105 new trees. Particularly we have the same joy for relaxed, meditative switching sessions. Best wishes from Germany, Jens
@@jensknopfrangiert Hello Jens. Thank you for your nice comments. It is a great hobby that involves a lot of different skills so there is something for almost everyone. I appreciate you watching. Enjoy the rest of your week and stay safe!
@@NitroStarGT Thank you for your kind comments. I do have fun. I think my layout looks good to me, but with modern scenery materials and attention to detail, I think anyone can do scenery as well as I can. I think that’s a realistic assessment anyway. Thanks for your continued support. Have a great Friday and stay safe!
Hey Thom, Congratulations on 2000 subscribers!! Great scenery update and that is a lot of tress you made. Looks great!! I like the variety idea as well. Not everything in this world is the same. Awesome little vacuum to! I need to get one of those 🤷♂️😅 Thanks for sharing. Have a good day and stay safe. Happy modeling!! - Jason
Good morning Thom, Congratulations on 2000 subscribers! Quite a milestone and well-deserved recognition. Your scenery update was a surprise this morning and much appreciated. That is a lot of trees that you worked on and they look fantastic. I totally agree with you on texture and color variation. One technique that I use to add color that is so very simple is to almost dry brush diluted craft paint onto my static grass. I very lightly swirl the tops of the grass stalks lightly touching with a small brush. Some people use an airbrush, but I found this technique much simpler. Well, off to work. Have a good day. Scott
@@kahunatiki6498 Good morning, Scott. Thanks for the positive feedback and the tips. It’s hump day, so we’re on the downhill side of the week. Stay safe!
@@MichaelManiscalco-k5k I’m glad you’re along for the ride, Michael. I hope you’re still making progress on your layouts. Enjoy the rest of the week and stay safe!
Thom, Nice work. Congratulations on 2,000 subscribers. You are an awesome modeler. I enjoy watching every video you produce. Keep up the good work. Rich
@@richgreene7043 Thank you Rich. There are lots of great modelers out there, so I appreciate you choosing to watch my videos. Have a great day and stay safe!
@@jeffgano4669 Thanks for watching and subscribing, Jeff. I’ve been here 34 years now, seen a lot of change. If you ever want to see the layout, let me know and we’ll try to work something out. It’s in a spare bedroom, I can’t handle a large crowd, but a couple of people would be fine. Have a great week and stay safe!
@@SpringfieldAndWestern Thanks, I think it turned out well. And also thanks for the congratulations. I appreciate your support. Enjoy the rest of your week and stay safe!
@@frantesorero I’ve had that facial hair for 15,years or so. Ellen is ok with it so far.😁 Thanks for watching. I wouldn’t be where I’m at without your help. Thanks! Enjoy the rest of your week and stay safe!
Good Wednesday Morning Thom and Congratulations on the 2,000 subscribers. The trees and the scenery update look great. That is also a very nice track schematic on your fascia, do you use a paint program of a Word to create your track schematics? Cheers, Rich S.
@@RWSBaden Hi Rich. Thank you for your comments. I made the diagram in Excel, pretty simple to do. I thought that I saw a notification pop up that you made a comment last weekend but it went away and I can’t find the comment. Am I dreaming? Enjoy the rest of your week and stay safe!
Hi Thom@@thomplacier677, No you are not dreaming, I posted a comment on your last ops session video as well. I did have a question about the 40' DT&I boxcar. Is that a Micro-Trains model? Cheers, Rich S.
@ it’s a MicroTrains model that I stripped and repainted/decaled. I bought a 3-pack of Ann Arbor cars and removed the roof walks on 2 of them and lettered them for DT&I. I still don’t see the comment if it was last Saturdays video.
Hi Thom@@thomplacier677, You are correct, I just went back to the video and I don't see my reply?? Not sure what happened? I don't think I placed any links in my post as I know sometimes RUclips will ask you to confirm the reply before it's posted? So not sure what happen with that post? But anyway thank you for the information on the Micro-Trains car. Cheers, Rich S.
Congratulations on reaching the milestone for monetizing! $20 is $20... Enough of those would be more RR stuff 😊 If you do something that you know who you copied, it might be helpful to at least mention, like you did for Joey trackside scenery. I know people like the mudfather like to get credit for stuff they think they've invented as well.
@@KenN.OXN.805 Hi Ken. I always try to give credit when it’s due. I’ve mentioned a lot of other RUclipsrs in my videos. I’ve learned a lot from others and try to acknowledge them. Many times I don’t copy someone exactly but use a blend of different techniques, but I get your point. Thanks for watching and supporting my efforts over the past few years. Have a Happy Thanksgiving and stay safe!

The hill , trees, and rest of the scenery looks realistic and great! Can’t wait to see the rest finished around the elevator 👍
