  • We have been trying to decide whether we are going to put a river or a waterfall in this section of the train layout, and we finally decided. Can you spot the guest in our thumbnail? Let us know what you find in the comments!

    I think a river with a small waterfall is a great idea, can't wait to see it finished! It will be an awesome addition to your layout. Linda ~ Loweville Junction Railroad 🚂

    That's a great idea for covering the window up but it's still accessible. Great update video!

      Thank you. It took us forever to find a solution for that spot.

    I think a river with or without a waterfall is good to put on a layout. It will look great when you get it finished.

      Thanks, John. I think the scaled down version is going to look better than previous plans and honestly we are just glad to have that part of the layout sealed off from window light now.

    Looking good so far. I like that rock color. Maybe randomly dry brush some lighter grays here and there?

    • @TwoRailfans
      @TwoRailfans  Месяц назад +1

      Yes, I think we will do that. We just put a fresh base coat over what we had on there before (we weren't happy with it). Thanks for watching and commenting. 😀

    Looks pretty good so far.😊 What about a picture of a waterfall on the backdrop? Perhaps Niagara falls.😉 And another waterfall at the place the river leaves the layout. 😉 Enjoy your work. Cheers Andy 🤠

      Thank you, Andy. Niagara Falls 😂 This is actually downscaled quite a bit from what we had before and I think will fit the layout better.

    Good progress team.
    Water is the scariest bit of the layout.
    My river is still only partially done.
    Good luck with yours.
    Happy Modelling

      Thank you. We have definitely put off the water, but also getting this part of the backdrop finished. At this point, there is at least a definite plan that is under way!

      @TwoRailfans  Месяц назад +1

      We thought about it, but there's not enough depth there to do it. The previous cutout we chopped up to make this was much taller and looked out of place on our layout. I think we can blend this one in a lot better.

    In some places, you see both together, so it doesn't have to be one or the other. I have a better idea. Why not use up the ground level space, by putting in a lake with a water-jet fountain in the middle? It's something you might see in a theme park, and I think it would look more magical.

    • @TwoRailfans
      @TwoRailfans  Месяц назад

      There really isn't room to change the layout plan because we have a firehouse and street that go around that area, and the water flows to the outer part of the layout. There are a lot of things we could do if we had more space, but it's a challenge to try and fit in everything in this small area. A river will flow out of the backdrop to small waterfalls at this section we completed, and the river is going to flow through town and pass through to an outer portion near the edge of the layout.
