- Follow along as I plan and install the 3rd track line of my HO scale layout. You'll get some good tips on both the importance of making a plan before beginning the process and the importance of remaining flexible, adjusting the plan as needed. Also, my thoughts on why I changed the initial plan from a 4% incline to a 2% incline. Some nice video of all 3 trains running at the end. And coming in video #12, my work on the 3rd line track continues with a how-to demo on painting the track, laying the ballast and using "Shaper Sheet" to create the mountain scenes between the 2nd and 3rd track lines.
Love your project and guidance. Thank you
Thank you, Hector!
Your trestle bridge came out fantastic! Man I sure hope my own first effort will be that successful; who knows :-) I'm still at the gluing risers etc in place, while waiting for incline/decline pieces to arrive. No track laid, so nothing running yet! I love how you just enjoy everything, even the 4% 2% hiccups, building things, creating interesting and meaningful scenes, learning from it all while staying calm and cheerful (at least on camera, ha!) and showing and sharing things with us. So glad I found your channel!
Thanks for the comments! What I love most about this hobby is how a person can really make it their own...all that really matters is that you are having fun, learning, and enjoying what you do. Even when you make mistakes (and I've made a ton of them) you just gotta laugh and say "Oh, now I see..!" I think that the minute you find yourself taking it too seriously it's no longer a hobby, it becomes work. I recently retired after 50+ years in the hospitality industry, so believe me, I'm done with work, I just wanna have fun! Be sure to post some updates on your layout as you move onward, I'd love to see them!
Nice video!
Thank you!

I see a great spot for another bridge and track view at 12:20
