Edging details makes all the difference.
have a go you will be surprised.....
Here is the link for the interview • INTERVIEW WITH TONY NO...
Your eye for detail is amazing Tony. Painting a surface, no one will ever see just shows you commitment. Brilliant 👏
Hi Martyn. just tricks of the trade. thanks again for commenting. have a great day Tony
Hi Tony, you never seace to amaze me with your attention to detail. looking forward to seeing the rest of the build.
Cheers from down under. Wally
Hello Wally. i know i never seace to amaze myself sometimes. but it all down to what works from past exsperiences. and never be afraid to try something new...take care for now. from up and over. cheer's Tony
Good evening Tony, hello this week from mainly sunny Surrey. Well the boss and my daughter are watching sewing bee, so I was trawling and found you. The platforms are looking great, the wooden bit on the end just adds that bit of extra character. Interesting the way you add your texture to both the wood and bricks they look so real. The cattle wagon looks great, it's a good buy. I think Jarrow road is going to be a brilliant addition to the railway network in the north east. I'm off to Addlestone Model Centre tomorrow, a great little shop which I've not visited since before the first lockdown. Hope your both well see you next week. Eddy xx
Hi Eddy. i dont know where you are now but its a bit damp here in hampshire. have fun in the model shop. i know how tempting it can be to part with money for all those goodies. it like being is a candy store....take care my friend, best wishes to and your family....Tony
Love the way you’ve done the planking👍
Hi Colin. simple idea but it works. but just make sure the MDF has a good sanding first. as it will cut down on the fumes from the cheap suoer glue....stay safe all the best Tony
Nice platforms. Enjoy watching.
Thanks for watching Ian. until next time all the best Tony
Great progress on the new stations Tony, and some new "Tony's Tips" for us all to share. The new phase is looking good my friend. Your interview with Adi is on the watch list to enjoy soon.
Hi Steve. I can not wait to start putting the station together. there are not a lot of old photos of jarrow station. but it should an interesting build.
The interview with Adi was done nearly two months ago. as i was in the middle of filming night hawk. but it was a great chat. that lasted nearlt 2 hours....but he has edited and put it together brilliantly. until next time stay safe my friend....cheer's Tony
the end of the platform was a fascinating build. modifying a surface with superglue for the purpose of scoring it never occurred to me. brilliant work with the paper strips. It's going to be a beautiful station! :)
Hi John. simple techniques. but great details. if you copy this idea make sure the MDF is sanded first as its less reaction with the super glue. and less fumes....good quality paper helps and the lines stay indented. thanks again my friend for commenting....cheer's Tony
Hi Tony, another great video. MDF is a godsend when it comes to allowing us to create platforms of custom length and design. Fabulous mini-series
Absolutely!.... Platforms are not always striaght lines.......thanks again Tony
Brilliant Tony the wooden end to that platform looks ace you have given me an idea there Tony thanks buddy 👍👍 was a good watch with a tin of lager👍💯👍
No problem 👍. Dylan. did you get your transfers. I hope they arrived safely. until next time my friend...have a great weekend. cheers Tony
Yes Tony thank you buddy 👍💯👍
Thats good. cheer's Tony. your welcome
Great work on the station Tony. Good that you showed what didn’t go so well! I’ve just watched the interview with Adi. It went really well. Most enjoyable. Thanks for keeping my motivation going. Roy.
Hi Roy. thanks for keeping my mojo going by commenting. the station has slowed this week. after the big push early in the month. the weather is to good to be true. taking some well earned rest for now...until next time stay safe and enjoy your model railways...thanks again Tony
I must have missed this video the first time around. I liked the way you made those platforms, and the edging worked out fine. Martin (Thailand)
Glad you catch up on this one Martin. straight platforms are a doddle to make. curved ones are a bit more complex. as with the South shields Platforms but can be achieved by making templates. thanks again for commenting. all the best Tony.
I really like how you make those platforms, lining paper with the pen really does leave a visible line for the platform edges, both stations coming along nicely. Inspirational work as usual Tony. All the best n take care. Brian @ The Angels
Hello Brian from a sunny afternoon in hampshire. thanks again for your kind comments. i am glad to be an inspiration. but it does work both ways my friend....stay safe my friend...Tony
A very interesting update Tony!!! Thanks for sharing. Cheers Onno.
My pleasure! Onno. see you next time...thanks again Tony
Jarrow Road coming on nicely there tony, maybe we might get a short story from platform staff about the new build, keep safe and well, keep up the good work......
Hi Francis. yes i may bare that in mind for the next video. a story line would be a good idea. but its to hot to go up in the loft this weekend. so i am taking this weekend off. until next time, all the best Tony
This was a great look into a different way of doing it and yet a very intelligent way. The area is coming along brilliantly (and, why would it not?). Always a real pleasure, A true class- both as instruction and person! Brilliant!
Good morning Anthony. i hope you have woken up to a sun blessed day as we have over the pond. its just nice to relax to coffee and comments. thank you for your kind words of support. as they are very much appreciated. have a great day all the best Tony
When I saw the big old x on the station I thought hullo, didn't know Tony had pirates at TNE. :) Enjoyed Adi's interview vid. Jarrow Rd coming along nicely. Arthur
Hi Arthur. shiver me timbers i hope not. lol. its hard to think that the interview was done over two months ago. as i was in the middle of doing the Nigh Hawk video. but now its back to the serious stuff. thanks again for taking the time top comment. all the best Tony
Good progress Tony.. Lots of groundwork to get done before the fun kicks in.. Take care mate..Chris n Jules
Hello Chris my friend. your not wrong there. all the point motors have to be done, ballasting. Retainings walls the list is endless. take care buddy....cheers' Tony
Great job Tony. The platforms really look the part. - Nicholas.
Hello Nicholas. thank you for your kind words. they simple to make and look very realistic. thanks again my friend...cheer's Tony
Hi Tony love the wood effect section on your platform, as for the end section I think that saying of practise makes perfect and if I know you this new station platform will be perfect, many thanks for sharing take care..
Absolutely Barry. its all experimental, but then if it looks right then it must. that wood effect would great for a halt on a small branch line....stay safe my friend....cheer's Tony
Looking great Tony you are always giving me ideas. Oh I enjoyed your interview the other day. I'm hoping to upload a video this weekend.
Hi Stephen. i will look forward to seeing your new video. Adi did a great job on the interview. we talk for about 2 hours that eveing.
thats thing with you tube we learn a lot from each other and i thinks that is geat. stay safe all the best Tony
Hi Tony, really like the way you’ve gone about the platforms, the platform paving is excellent something I may try for my N gauge platforms, it’ll probably work quite well I think for the scale.
Cheers Tony, John
Hi John mate. as you know in N gauge it will half the size. but its very do able. 1mm x 1.5 card for the edges that would work. give it try. 6x4 for the flag stones...should look great. thanks again for commenting. enjoy the weekend. cheer's Tony
Sue and I just back from a week away. Just caching up on what we mist. Platforms coming together nicely. Stay safe.
Welcome back!, Mike & Sue, you havent missed much, just completed the platforms. they still need to add the finishing touches. until next time all the best Tony
Hi Tony great platforms, all coming along great well done mate.
Thanks 👍. Not long before we see the station finshed and trains running into them. cheer's Tony
My platforms have always be a bit hit and miss ( especially hit by engines) Tony. That video was a real education to me. When I eventually have space to build my layout, it will be a great help.Thanks. Have a great week end
Hi Peter. well the video is always there to look back on. along with the south shields platforms which where a lot more involve to do. all the platform videos are now together, in the listings....until next time have a great weekend. weather is not good. ideal for indoor model railways...cheer's Tony
Hi Tony, just thought you'd like to know, my 92 y.o. dad , who is staying with me at the moment, was very impressed with your video about the grand opening of S.S.station. he loves all the detail even with his very poor eyesight he was very impressed.
All the best. Peter.
Hello Tony superb work always a pleasure to seeing your progress and your work a great start to my weekend as always enjoyed your video have a good weekend cheers for now Tony cheers for now al 👋👋🤗😃👍🚂🚂
Thanks, you too! Al. i will do my best to have a great weekend. the weather is good. so i dont think much will happen on the railway this week. but i am just hoping for some summer monsoons to kick in. lol. rainy weather always give me the excuse to go into the loft. take care my friend.....look after yourself...cheer's Tony
@@TONYNORTHEASTERN 👋🚂🚝👍👍
Platform's looking really good Tony we the super glue trick on mdf at work great little trick do like the edging stones thankyou for the video
Hi Mark. use the very cheap super glue you get from pound land. sand the edges before appyling the glue. less fumes...until next time stay safe Tony
@@TONYNORTHEASTERN 👍stay safe
@@TONYNORTHEASTERN 👍
Hi Tony! Been away for a couple of weeks. Wow, you certainly have been busy. Great job as usual. Looking forward to future episodes!
Welcome back! Ray. I am glad that you have caught up. I am always busy once a new project gets started. these few baseboards are the missing peice of the jigsaw. once these are done i will return back to shields. as we are not quite finished there....have a great weekend cheer's Tony
Fabulous platforms Tony, got my own to do shortly. Susannah
Hi Susannah, good luck with yours. i know you will do a great job.....take care all the best Tony
Good job you spotted the error when you did mate or it could have been a right pain if you'd got someway into the build and discovered it. Going well though Tony, take shape nicely.
Hi Jon, me too. Phew. but yes these things happen. but yes we are now in a heat wave down here in Hampshire. so not much to report so far. hopefully i will do somthing throughtout the week, all the best Tony...
You're making some great progress with the stations Tony, and I'm learning ever so much! I'm still quite a way from needing to construct platforms, but I've already started looking at sizes and materials that will work in N gauge! Keep up the good work! All the best, Ian.
Good morning Ian. N gauge platforms are about 8mm high, 10mm if you put cork underneath the tracks. taking the weekend from the railway just enjoy the weather for change. have fun, until next time all the best Tony
Wow that's looking great
Thank you for commenting Very much appreciate it....cheer's Tony
Another great video Tony
Hi Ian. thanks you for commenting. until next time have a great weekend...Cheer's Tony
Nice one Tony, doing two at once has its advantages, certainly getting the space filled in quickly! All the best Stephen
Hi Stephen. it seemed natural to do both sets of platform together. but from now on we will focus on Jarrow road and work my way around to Little haven....so lots to do and lots to keep us amused over the next few years.....thanks again my friend...Tony
Great Stuff Tony mate.
Hi David, they are slowly begining to look like stations.....many thanks again for commenting cheer's Tony
good build on the channel tony keep up the good vids and work on the layout looks good thanks lee
Thank Lee. thanks again for commenting. I hope all is good at Anfield road...Made we should have a footie match Jarrow road Vs Anfield Road....cheer's Tony
Some good ideas here Tony, Cheers Ray
Good evening Ray. thank you for stoping by. I am glad to be of service. thanks again Tony
@@TONYNORTHEASTERN I have two platforms which have been sitting here in an unfinished state for many years. I have vowed this year to tidy them up and fit some buildings. The garden is very demanding though. Thanks again Ray
I know that feeling when it comes to gardening...when we have a wet weekends. then happy days we have all the time in the world.. your welcome Ray
Hi everyone here is a link to Adi Pullens interview. ruclips.net/video/7-cLdk_hjI0/видео.html
Hi Mr t
Hope you and your family are well?
Sorry for my late comment Internet issues
Some get tips there the build I'd coming alone great. Thank you so much for the shout out.
Keep safe arp
All good mate. No Prblem. it was a nice thing you did with the interview. and you derserve all the credit for it well done. and i was glad to do.
its back to buisness now my friend, we have a railway to build. as you have seen it all changing here at the north eastern the westoe branch is now become the Jarrow Branch.
its hard to believe that the interview waas almost 2 months ago....time flies...stay safe all the best Tony
Hi Tony, thank you for all the great videos, I was just watching your interview with Adi Pullen, very interesting. What really stood out was your amazing hedge art! If you look at the Saracens Head, the shot used about half way through, the tree to the right…….. is it a Morris minor or a beetle? 😂 have look and see if you agree…. Timo
Wow Timo i had never noticed that before. but yes it does look like a Bettle.... i am sure it was not intensional. well spoted. thank you for watching the videos and commenting very much appreciated. until next time stay safe Tony
I noticed the large X, so I take it you’re having a helicopter pad at Jarrow Road. 😂 I also see that you follow the adage; measure once and cut twice. 😂 Never mind, Tony, mistakes are part of life and how we all learn.
Good progress and a good job on the platforms. Nice horse box; handy for Gosforth Park Races. Looking forwards to the next instalment.
Do you have a Loading Gauge, namely, a diagram of all the clearances required for platforms, overbridges, station canopies, etc? If not, I'll send one to you in an email. Have a good weekend. Best, Jason.
Hi Jason. yep its true measure once and then cut twice..oops i have done it a again. well we all mistakes.
Jarrow did have canopies at one point in one very rare photo they are there. so i am going to have to put them in. there will be a very small bridge over the rails on the bend, but only wide enough for a tractor. single road. lots of ideas floating around at the moment.
i have been doing some wiring up for the point motors but its just been so hot up there. that i am taking the rest of the weekend off. until next time all the best Tony..
Is Jarrow Road going to have platform canopies? I think it should to hide the scenery wall. Keep up the good work.
Hi Paul. the Jarrow station did have canopies. so will add some to these platforms. the walls will be covered with stone sheet. until next time have a great weekend...cheer's Tony
X marks the Spot Tony. What are you going when you run out of space?
Another great tutorial 👍
Hi Charlie, I guess i will have to start again. Lol. thank you for your kind comment. stay safe Tony
I’ve never thought of making a thick MDF base. It’s a really solid idea (sorry for the pun). Just how thick is that MDF?
Good Morning Gary. OO gauge platform heights are 17,5mm so 18mm MDF is spot plus you can shape them to match curves somtimes saving spaces. making thanks again for commenting..Tony
👌😎
Hi Fred, must catch up soon my friend....cheer's Tony
Hi Tony, we redoing platforms to Hign Oak Junction, you said card for edging? Where did you get it from? Is it something you did? Works really well 👍
Hi. The card is 2mm thick. and its called Kraft Card. you can get it on Ebay. the stone walling i got that from Model scenery. i hope this helps. many thanks Tony
@TONY NORTH EASTERN Thanks, Tony. It's a great help 👍🏼. Platforms look really good. Keep up the good work, all the best, John.
Hi Tony enjoying the station videos and they inspire me to have a go at making my own. One question what is the thickness of the platform?
Hi Barry, the thickness of the MDF is 18mm, platform, which is ideal as the real platforms are 3ft 8 inchs,
and thats almost 4ft....i hope this helps.....Tony
@@TONYNORTHEASTERN thanks let you know
Jarrow Road,im confused,has there been another name change again
Hi Tez. i do apologise for the confusion but yes there has been a name change. due to the fact that i am going to copy the front of the old Jarrow station. for Jarrow Road, i hope that i have cleared up the confusion....all the best Tony
@@TONYNORTHEASTERN no need to apologise, I prefer the name Jarrow Road anyway,thanks for clearing it up
Your welcome....have a great weekend Tony
Hopefully Mr Whats Is Name is not learning from a near by footbridge and counting the numbers of grains of saw dust from the MDF, or complaining about having wait until he can complain about the number of stones being used to build the platform. A least Mrs Simms is becoming acquainted with the lads who work in the engine sheds at Dragons Junction. But I feel sorry for them having to contend with her perpetual cackle as she munches her way through some of her home grown pickled onions that she had in her pocket, along with her false teeth.
Hi Alan. it sounds like the tales of the unexpected.....cheer's Tony
