New Layout Build - Scenery surrounding the car auction
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 мар 2019
- I've made some good progress on the scenery surrounding the car auction over the past few weeks. Very happy with how it's looking but it's not finished yet, plenty more details to add.
I bought a number of details including all the fences from scale model scenery and I highly recommend them. Link below to their website if you're interested.

I love these old videos of you working on your new layout. You never sound excited, but you sound upbeat and really up to the challenge. Have loved watching your content. Lee
THANK YOU for this video. Your work, and especially, your attention to detail, is excellent. Your use of modern materials is enlightening, and this surely must encourage the hobby and the respect for our railways . This is a quality video and can only help all of us who care. G. C.
If I had half of your modeling skill and eye for realism I’d be one happy modeler!!
Loved the Blues Brothers reference Richard. Keep up the good work, a massive fan of everard junction and the blues brothers
I’ve been interested in model railways all my life. Scenery has never been my strong suit. Thanks for your series. It has been very instructional.
Fantastic video Richard, absolutely enjoyable. I really like how the area by the canal is starting to look. I am looking forward to the next video to see what else you have done. Be well and keep safe, regards Gary.
View along footpath along canal looks fantastic and the shortcut up to the street is so typical looks very realistic
Love when I get a notification that Everard Junction has a new video...😊
Love this video
It's really magical watching you work your magic on this layout, one of the best channels on youtube.
Your little row of terrace houses on the canal look great, if it was present day you'd need 6 trampolines!
More like hot tubs.
And someone sunbathing in the backyard!
I would have possibly had a space between every 2nd and third house to have a passage way to the back garden
maybe make one lawn look dead, just like mine in real life.
Great video Richard, as always. Lots achieved and as always inspirational. All of it looks amazing, but especially liked the gardens etc. Many thanks and look forward to the next update. Rob
Truly amazing , well done ! Don’t know what else to say except superb !
Yes!!! Exelent i want to say this what you say.
Hear Hear
Excellent work Richard. Your scenic area's are really impressive love all the attention to detail Thanks for sharing .. cheers Pete
Great job, your attention to detail is amazing & a treat to know that tha hobby still lives on through people like you. I am 80 years old & the pleasures that this hobby gave me seems to have been amplified due to advancing engineering
Very interesting and informative thanks Richard. Hopefully I am slowly picking up some skills although it means watching the videos over again a few times.
Really fun watching that all come together. Fantastic! In the US, the barbed wire fence would arch out over the road to keep people from climbing over it and into the lot. I think you had it right the first time.
They face inwards in the UK. Silly i know 🤦♂️
A thoroughly enjoyable watch. Being a railway electrical engineer I can assure you that your detail is spot on. The cable troughing is virtually indistinguishable from the real thing, especially the missing/displaced lids. The whole thing is second to none.
As a side note your lineside fence is correct. When dealing with railway property consent issues in the past it was the understanding that fences generally resided on the boundary line and so and any lateral excursion of the fence had to face inwards towards railway land, even though this kind of defeats the objective of the inclined upper part of the fence. I guess prisons, land borders etc. have different priorities as the orientation of their fences are generally 'correct'.
Anyway, top class modelling and video production.
Thanks, appreciate the fence info. I've spotted it in a few places now on my travels. I guess that may explain why vandalism on railway property is so common here!
... NOW WE KNOW ABOUT THE FENCE'S AND BORDERS... I'M GOING TO BLEND THAT LITTLE NUGGET INTO A CONVERSATION TODAY..🙉.. I'VE JUST THE VENUE TOO.. CHEERS ALOT.. YOU CAN HAVE AN APPLE 🍎..
Amazing progress and very realistic scenery. Thanks for sharing your passion with us all.
Love your work. So much hard work put into your videos. Thank you. The close up shots at the end are amazing.
Absolutely stunning work, Richard. It's your well thought out attention to detail that I am learning a lot to bring my layout to life.
Stunning work Richard, all this work really makes me want to get some grass down on my own layout. I just wish I could work at the rate you are able to. Well done. Paul
.... SLOW THE " PLAY SPEED " RIGHT DOWN... MAY MAKE YOU FEEL QUICKER..🙉👀.. ONLY JOSHING.. HAVE AN APPLE 🍎.. I'M PROBABLY JEALOUS..☹️.. I'LL BASKE IN ALL YOUR ' REFLECTED GLORY '..🤩
Wow! Fantastic work as always Richard.
I'm just about to em barque on my very first scenic project on the layout and these recent videos have given me so much inspiration and motivation.
Looking forward to the next update already.
All the best
Jamie
I love 6:07 🤣. Thank you for all of your excellent videos, I've been really enjoying watching the new layout build.
Your vision is inspiring. Everything you do has been thought out perfectly. You give us regular modelers something to shoot for. Keep up the excellent work.
Absolutely brilliant as always! Your creativity, imagination, research and attention to detail are second to none. Everard Junction Mk2 is going to be a real benchmark in railway modelling.
Execellant as always Richard, your attention to detail is always fantastic to follow you bringing it all to fruition and for it to look as if you are actually looking at it as you go by, by what ever means whether on foot or in a vehicle or even looking out of a carriage window in passing, it just looks right, well done once again, Geoff
Love the scenery work. It is amazing how the small details make all the difference. Well done.
Great film to watch while in bed with a bad cold! Those garden fences look the business but in reality some would be broken, painted, stained and patched up. Gonna look great when finished with the flowers, some washing , cats, dogs, kids and dustbins. Oh and don't forget the bicycle!
Going on the current progress. I can't wait too see the station area. It's going to be a good one! 👍 Well done EJ
Love watching your videos. This is the first one I’ve felt I’ve really got to comment on. Absolutely brilliant. Credit to you that looks amazing. Love how your building this railway from another angle instead of everything being flat and millimetre perfect which in real life it is. Keep up the good work 👍🏻
Stick a mooring point on the other side of the canal, maybe some pull-out gear and water hoses?
I've got some mooring rings for the canal. Plan is to turn the small building into a facilities point.
Good grief man. So much inspiration for my own layout is seen here. I wish I had your eye for the details as I'm just plopping things in a place that "looks right"
You are one hardworking modeller Sir. Excellent channel you have.
Gorgeous! That row of terraced houses is looking great so far, Richard. Thoroughly enjoyable video. Best, John
Looking great, I like the idea of not packing too much in limited area, the trains will be taking the centre stage and the result is very realistic!
WOW Richard that was a fantastic update 😄 it’s truly amazing 👍🏻 Well dove Stevie.
I truly enjoy your videos! I know next to nothing about trains but I have assembled my fair share models kits ove my 46 years. I just enjoy and appreciate watching the process and how things comes together but more than that, I enjoy the skill involved and the passion you have for your amazing layout. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Words of wisdom - things to discuss and consider - a steady progression. Result: perfection.
Before adding any resin etc for the water effect in the canal. Its worth painting the centre channel dark, then when the water effect is added it gives the impression of depth. Excellent work. Its inspiring.
Wow this gave me ever so much inspiration and know that this can be done and that you show me how to is phenomenal of how model railways cab look especially with your easy to understand voice, video editing, and sense of imagination and knowing what your doing
I enjoyed watching your videos on building your layout up. It is really gets me expired to what I want on a layout I want to do. Great show, keep it up!
sits for 40 mins with mouth open in awe . such excellent detailed work . well done love how the new layout is shaping up. I spent 19 years commuting on the Waterloo - Reading line and Reading Newbury line in the 80s so what you create brings back memories. Thank you.
Amazing work as always, I worked ECML in the 80s, I find myself walking your track, you eye for detail is great.
That looks truly amazing. Somehow, I can vision a small signal box at the top of those steps and a semaphore signal on the branch line.
Keep up the great work, I always look forward and enjoy watching your videos!
Already on episode 9, so enjoyable to watch and listen to such a professional commentary, you should have your own channel on TV or a slot on the 'Yesterday' channel. The way you have put this together is informative as it is entertaining. Keep up the good work you have encouraged me to sort my loft out and get building.
Excellent progress, the transitions between scenes make everything very realistic. The path between the right of way and the row houses is a nice touch, that's the type of place young boys would be up to some mischief.
I'm not even a railway fan yet I've been subbed to your channel for years now, but i really really enjoy the scenery building, I do make 1/76 1960s lorry's and I'd love to make a diorama to display them in.
Fwiw, you had the fence right originally, although I'm sure there are many examples of it being installed both ways in real life (just like people constantly install faucets and deadbolt knobs wrong). The overhang is meant to make it harder to climb over so if you want to keep people out then the overhang should point outward.
This layout is already look amazing! I wouldnt have thought about the steps up the embankment.
If you dont put a bicycle in the canal, and a trolley in that alleyway im going to complain XD
Buddleia shrubs with there purple,mauve,and pink flowers seem to get everywhere along a railway line,like weeds. Same goes for Rosebay willow herb. Excellent video.
fantastic so relaxing to watch and make model railway building so pleasurable as you do such a fantastic job, you must be so proud of your work.
Great use of the blues brothers!!!!
Top job as usual Richard. As a rule of thumb, when you have a 4 track section, you will have drainage catch pits down each side and a run down the middle due to the size of the area drained.
This is just better the more I watch. Just turns out so real looking. You know how to really add details to finish an area.
I was sort of disappointed to see you dismantle Mk1, but your video describing why made perfect sense & reflected the reasons why I started my current layout. I liked Mk1 but you really are improving this in every area & by explaining why as well as how, your videos are superb.
It all looks incredible. I was particularly taken aback by the how realistic the pathway down the side of the houses looks.
You and your craftsmanship are inspiring me to take a more realistic approach towards building my layout. I truly enjoy you videos. Excellent work!
This is so frickin good! You have thought of every little detail which really goes to make a huge difference. Also glad to see you're not doing everything straight and clean. It's so important to have things look natraul. Well done! This is really great inspiration for my own layout, on which progress is slow.
Not only are you an accomplished model maker great creative mind, great imagination.
The view lines are coming along nicely now with the scenic banks in .
As a US viewer, it is very interesting to see how you 'tune' the scenery to the realities of the Brit environment, along with the inevitable effects of traffic and weather regardless of location. Standing O.
I was devastated to see the old layout go as it was a good layout but from the ashes it will be reborn better and will last for years to come, What you've done so far in the new one it looks absolutely fabulous keep up the good work, you should be proud of yourself, Can't wait to seen the final finished layout as it's going to be amazing.
that is looking seriously effective, especially with those fences by the railway - side houses that back onto the canal.
Looking great!
Little challenge for you that might create a bit of scenic interest... Can you create a section of terrain where a worker is part way through attacking the static grass with a strimmer?
We have sound barriers here very similar to those in your layout and they would be constructed by the transit authority. The lot separations in back of the housing units would use differing types of fencing as that is left to the individual property owners. I still like how they turned out though. You're doing an awesome job!
Thanks for another great video update on my birthday no less- March 6. I would add some bollards to your tow path so you have a place to tie up a barge or canal boat. Any water on my shelf layout will be painted brown/dirt airbrushed. Your fences came out dandy.
Wow!! So clearly described...you have the knack of convincing us that 'we' can do it!!
Fab Richard, had to watch it in three chunks (not a criticism) loved the video. It’s funny that I felt sad at the demise of the first Everard Junction but the new layout is truly a Phoenix. Thanks for your hard work it is truly appreciated, you could selfishly model in the vast amount of time you put into the videos for our benefit.
Wow amazing, Lets remember guys this railway is from the 80s, once again WOW.
Excellent, looking very good. A small thing, brambles - birds sit of the fence and deposit the seeds with a little fertiliser and they grow up. There would even be some on the bottom of the security fence, seeds will find fissures in the hard surface joints. Stems are red/brown with leaves darker green.
All to come in future, I've still got plenty of work to do in this area.
You had the fence correctly oriented the first time. The top should tilt towards the side you want to discourage someone from climbing over.
In Britain you need to have the angle facing away from public footpaths as per the real picture I showed in the video. This makes the fence very easy to climb and might explain why vandalism on railway property is so common here.
I've got a feeling when you are done its going to be extremely difficult to tell if this is in fact a model railway!! Amazing work as always mate
I really like the auction house you created. Thanks for sharing...
Hi Richard,
Fantastic work as always! One suggestion regarding the location cupboard staging -I work on the Railway in areas that haven't been updated since the 80's! The older hand rails don't have the middle fall through bar and are usually a bit wonky. The floor is usually wood - with or without antislip stuff below!
Well done on the detail The cable troughing looks very realistic with the displaced lids as often seen on the real thing. eg. in your photos. When you get more ballast have another look at your photos and see how the sleepers are not all swept clean. You need a few more locations(Relay boxes) to control that amount of point work and associated signals. Points usually have a large location cabinet full of equipment and another large one to supply the power to move them The narrow half width one you have would usually be used to house the power supplies for the points and signals For the signals you would need another large case. You could add another set at the other end of the junction with 3 large cases. Also as others have noted Don't forget the cables going up from the troughing.
So inspirational. As 'How to..' guides go you are one hard act to beat. Thanks for sharing your astonishing work!
Amazing work. In my mind it will be Arthur Daley running that back street car auction place! "Daley Deals"
I was thinking that too. lol.
Your concern about the houses being too close to the railway is unfounded. Near where I live there were two terraces (now demolished) which actually touched (built into) the abutments of a bridge carrying the railway. Your attention to detail is fantastic. The only comment I would make is that mostly the fences between the terrace of garden would be lower than that at the rear. However I nit pick, I am not a modeller, so I admire your work and eny your patience. Thank you for publishing these videos, they are fascinating and educational.
Regarding: living close to the rail line: I have stayed in hostels and hotels in Chicago just like the Blues Brother bit. As a kid, we had a rail line through our back yard with no fencing to keep us off the rails. WOW! 😳 I still can't believe a couple of the stupidly suicidal stunts we did as 6 and 7 year-olds. 🤐 Anyhow, all superlatives are already given, but excellent work. 👍Maybe a cut scene from "Wayne's World": "we're not worthy! We're not worthy!" 😁
Hi Richard! ... You have a fantastic eye for detail and a patience to translate this into "reality". Thank you once again for an entrancing, informative video. L look forward to the next "episode" ... A.Butler.
The layout is coming to life quickly, great workmanship, well done. Fell like moving into one of the houses.
Rich your modeling is fantastic, "RELAY CUBARDS" known as LOCATION CABINETS" +The Terrace house needs continuos roof slate tiles ,sorry for the spelling ....love what you do xxx
Richard that scenery behind the houses and the work you put into your layout is outstanding keep up with the great work
Bloody hell mate. I sense alot of short nights as you have done so much work in a short time. Very excited to see another video already. The very best part is seeing how much joy and fun you are having it really shows. Spectacular work mate so happy for you and I had a massive smile the whole video. Again thanks for sharing this with us all.
It’s really coming along nicely! I really like how your embankment is progressing. It’s also very apparent you have spent some hours editing and producing a quality video. I appreciate your efforts, both on the layout and on the video.
Thanks, a lot of hours go into the editing!
Great video the scenery is looking brilliant you are really good at doing scenery
Great progress. Excellent job, looking superb.
Amazing to watch how layout grow up.. especially these small details..
Path way between railroad and house are excellent idea.. this gives natural effect. :) And canal colour looks like real mud when canal was dryer out for cleaning.. I think, cool idea will be to put some garbage in that canal - old tyre, bottles etc.. Tyre may be cut in half to get two tyres to glue in and lower profile..
I very like how stairs look and cable canal went out perfect with some cover's missing.
Excellent job again! :)
You make it look so easy, nice job. John
on behalf of the fence i would say it has to point in that direction from which you want to prevent trespasser to climb or make it harder for them to climb it, so in this situation it would be toward the street, if it points inwards that more suitable for a prison.
but still awesome work from your side, i really enjoy watchiung your viedos!
Absolutely LOVE your content! Really inspires me to pull the finger out with my own layout! Thanks for the utterly fantastic videos, tips and tuition!
so realistic and very well presented - don't be surprised if the BBC come knocking on your door :-)
Really good video, you'have actually inspired me to get back into 00 and I have started today my first 00 layout in a long time.
Please keep up the excellent videos and helping us novices learn, I am modelling a loose era of 70's and 80's so nice bit of BR Blue.
This is brilliant! Its just the era that i worked on BR , i have seen at least one model that although scenery was amazing there was not one single signal, shunt disc, colour light box or anything associated with every set of points, junctions etc. This sounds excellent, i look forward to the finished article.
Excellent Richard, it's coming on a treat. Looking forwards to the next installment.
Excellent update and as always exceptional skill applied. It just keeps on getting better and better!
Hi Richard, sensational modelling. Your attention to detail is to admired. Congratulations. Cheers Greg
I love your videos and they are really oddly satisfying in timelapses. Keep up the good work. 👍
I know this is 40 odd minutes but can I just say it just flies by, very well done sir can't wait for the next installment
Its a scale model scenery kit think its mentioned in this or the previous video
I’d love you to model some overhead catenary - perhaps just showing part of the electrification being constructed - with your eye for detail it would look amazing. I always find the o/h cables very urban and remind me of travelling in the ‘80’s.
