- Are you also stuck and lack progress on your Model Railroad? I traveled to New York helping one of my viewers getting started on landscaping his layout with the support of Model Railroad Academy.

My host also let me experience the landscapes, structures and trains of New York during the week I spent there. I got many new ideas for both tutorials and 3D-models for home-print as a result. My host is now again making progress on his layout. Win-win!
Do you 3D-print? Modelrailroad3D has more than 1200 H0-scale models for home-print.

Many people will empathize with the plywood-trains-buildings moment. Taking on this real-world situation with materials on hand is a great example to help people get over their hesitation.
Hah! Martin,the two of you could be brothers.
Must be a nice mini vacation for you.
Thanks for the tip with the zip lock bag.
You're Batman! A MRR super hero.
😄 I don’t know about that, but I love modelling and love meeting new people. Helping others with their layouts is also much more fun than working on your own.
Oh man, it’s nice seeing you in my part of the world!
using a zip bag when mixing hydrocal and then as a dispenser really was a super idea, never seen that before. Nice ! Next time you should also visit Hoboken and the fine railroadstation that used to house the Erie Lackawannas trains, today NJdot trains. There also is a new tramline to visit. Great video !
Always great watching you doing landscaping on a model railroad
Martin, your enthusiasm is infectious.
It's benificial to learn how we can adapt all types of materials available in various locations and situations (Elmers schoolglue 😆)
I like using various Australian tree barks, like 'stringybark' and builder's glues like 'liquid nalis' , ideal for use with polystyrene and filling in small gaps, also adding strength to polystyrene landscaping.
Also mixing in cheap acrylic groundcolours when preparing a plaster/glue mixture to cover (and harden) paper covering sheets.
Possibilities are endless.
Another great video and a feather in your cap.
Nice, you were close to my house. That CSX line runs very close to my house, a few miles south of where you were train-spotting from.
As a fan of both Märklin and American MRR i loved this video.
Very nice video.
Gives ideas. Thank you.
I’m so glad you got to see some American trains. My great grandfather was a marble setter for Grand Central. It is a beautiful place.
It was truely impressive! Love it!
As a plumber, you are taught all kinds of things about metals and their various types at school. So too what a type of metal does under heat (expand) but that is not so important for modelling because this is about temperatures above 40 degrees, anything below that is not significant. Fleischmann model rails (without ballast) are made of brass. And brass is a metal consisting of 2 alloys. Namely copper and zinc. Brass can withstand heat cold or humid air just fine. Brass cannot rust but only become dull. This is easily remedied by driving with polishing wagons or clicking the well-known brushes from Noch under the axles of wagons. Greetings Antwan
Hi Antwan, What you are saying is true and correct, but do not take in consideration the electrical aspects of oxidation. Most of the oxides of Cu-Zn are non-conductive as they have a full valence bands, but if you "dig into" the wire, you'll get to metal that isn't covered with an oxide. That means you have to all the time use abrasive methods to keep your trains running. Therefore the industry since the 80s are going from brass as a electrical conductor/connector, or plate it with gold preventing oxidation. Noch brushes will not remove the oxide from the tracks. Not even after 10 passes..
Excelente como siempre mi pana, felicitaciones...
Taking care of you as you visit and help them build the landscape? This is so sweet~.
tunnelportalen blev väldigt fint 👏
Greetings Martin, ich ziehe meinen Hut vor dir…als die ersten Bilder der Anlage gesehen habe, dachte ich ehrlich: ui,ui,ui (ein typisch deutscher Ausdruck für „smooth shocked surprise“ on a friendly basis…). Da ist aber eine Menge Arbeit zu tun - ich glaube jeder andere hätte mit lieben Worten abgesagt, aber es passt du dir, dass du die Herausforderung angenommen hast und die ersten Ergebnisse sind (wie nicht anders zu erwarten) beeindruckend! Ich habe bei mir hier das NOCH-Trassenbauset Martinstown liegen, worauf ich mich schon sehr freue! Danke für deinen unermüdlichen Einsatz für diese so bereichernde Kunstform. Alles Gute weiterhin und herzliche Grüße, F.
Great video.
Let me know when you want to come to Arizona🎉
Sometime after you invited me ;)
@@marklinofsweden let's make it happen. I just finished the room for my train set
Excellent video 😀👍🏻
I am rather certain I have never seen cotton-batten used in model scenery before!
What is cotton batten?
Nice Video and smart tips, use what's at hand. Usually, kitchen paper is not the most economical. But available everywhere. Who knows, this could also be done with wallpaper? It also seems useful to me that the mountain can open in places for rail cleaning, but maybe 🤔 this has already been thought about. Nice to see you at work again without technical tours de force (Martin). I am going to use Fleischmann model rails for our layout. Brass conducts current well and after a long test how clean the rails stay from oxidation, brass rails is a great choice for me. Before application, I put the rails in a bath of a home remedy, which ensures that all old tarnish is removed.
Good luck with this project and we will follow it. Greetings Antwan
Thank you Antwan! 👍😊
Greetings from New Zealand. I also have much of the old Fleischmann brass tracks and switches was considering no-ox without the lubricant.Can you tell me what is in your home remedy? T.I.A.
@@simonalexandercritchley439 Dear Simon Alexander. My home remedy comes from the days when my mother still had crystal lamps. The remedy cleans and degreases very well. I do 1 part Ammonia, 2 parts water and a few drops of washing-up liquid (note) with crystal it is important that there is no Citroën in the detergent. Whether this also applies to the rails I am not sure.
Put the rails in this liquid for at least 15 minutes and then rinse with lukewarm water. Then wipe dry with a cloth. The rails will shine like new. Even the rail welds will then be clean. Only the turnouts should not be put in the bath, I would rub those lies with a cloth.
This also works fine with Lima rails. Just don't be alarmed because these will turn black in the bath. That is what the nickel in Lima rails does. But rinse with lukewarm water and wipe dry with an old cloth. You will see that even Lima rails become like new. And all that without using a polishing block. Good luck!
@@simonalexandercritchley439 Hi! If I understand your question correct, you are asking if you could build a layout using the Fleischmann brass tracks without getting corrosion issues? If so, buy a air-dehumidifier and set it to 45%. Then make sure room temperature remains at 20C at all times. This should keep the oxidation process slow. However, brass is not a good material to make model tracks from. It’s likely that you anyway experience issues. Please note that I have no first hand experience with Fleischmann brass tracks..
@@djantwan6155 Many thanks,some of the marklin K track has gone black I will try this.Should be stainless but maybe the early rails were not so good. The Profi gleis still looks new.
Класс 👍

What are your thoughts on the materials that we have here in America compared to what you use in Europe?
I must say I really liked the Elmer school glue. It exceeded my expectations. Many of the european manufacturers still have sawdust based turf, which is totally useless and from the 50s. I love WS turf. It’s really nice, but available in Europe as well..
Are you still near New York City? I would love to meet you in person.
From the video, you passed right by my layout on your trip.
Hi! Thank you for reaching out! Sorry, but this video was recorded last week. I’m back home in Sweden now.

How can you do maintenance inside the Tunnel? Clean Tracks, ... if it's completely covered? Are there any "windows" to do this kind of service?
Brian can lift the roof of the tunnel for access. Showned in the start of this episode. 👍
Might be a dumb question
