All other video, sound effects, graphics and photographs are my own.
Well done! As usual you produced a QUALITY video with super clear instructions! Will, YOU ROCK! We (hubby and our 3 1/2 year old son) watch you all the time and you bring a lot of joy to our household! Thank you for creating such great, clear and informative (and well-produced and edited) videos.
Well, the moment you opened up the page on Fiddlers Ferry, I recognised the layout straight away, I used to live across the fields from that Power Station. I used to walk along the canal and the foot path towards Widnes. I would watch the coal trains come and go, many years ago, been away from the UK for almost 12 years, I now live in the Blue Mountains in NSW Australia . I am in the first stages of getting back into model rail. Really enjoyed this video , well done sir!
OMG thank you Will! I've waited two years for the second part, was worth it! :)
Well done. Exactly how I created my layout. Of course Model Railway mags also provide inspiration.
As per usual a very simple straightforward to the point video, this is what I like about your videos will, yes I know everyone is dying for the next instalment but hey it will come in due course, 2 thumbs up. My inspiration was simple, picked my home town, researched track plans, studied the original location, searched threw old photos and then used SCARM (SCARM is a free downloadable railway planner, and very very good at that) to try get the best results for how to incorporate into the space I had available, but just remember everyone Rome wasn't built in a day and by the time you may build and dare I say finish your layout there will already be the next layout plans started flourishing in your head.
At last.....what I have been waiting for....I am with you all of the way Will.....I'm starting out, with baseboard ready to build...so looking forward....reading about the electrics still confuses me.... Regards Myles 😀
Looking forward to the following episodes, Will. If anybody is looking for other sources of inspiration, I would suggest attending model railway exhibitions. Not all layouts are grand club exhibits; there are many built by individuals to fit into limited space.
My answers to your questions:
1. End-to-end for realistic operation, but with loops at each end so it can run continuously when I just want to watch trains run...
2. Present day.
3. My spare bedroom. It will be modular so I can move it to my attic in the future and build more modules and have a HUGE layout. I need to insulate and run the A/C to my attic before that happens, tho. And like yours, I get to my attic with a ladder, so I'll want to have a proper stairway built up to it, which will cost mungo buckazoids.
4. I'm not too skilled at building things yet, and no way am I gonna paint over a $300 locomotive to "weather" it, so not super detailed realism.
5. HO scale, but I want some British locomotives, too.
6. Generally the northeast USA, but no specific location.
7. DCC with sound.
8. Plywood base modules with foamboard on the plywood, then laying track and scenery on that using styrofoam and plaster. I might have a module with a deep gorge, so more fancy construction techniques will be used for that particular module.
9. ...
10. Moving all the storage boxes and clutter from my spare bedroom to my basement so I can start building my first module.
*TTS Sound
I dont really like weathering locos either. I'm a beginner but if I wanted a weathered one I'd buy it that way. But I think wagons have to be weathered imo. It makes everything look so much better
Please keep making more, when i move out i want to build a big layout. Your videos are very detailed and amazing.
In case you haven't thought about an "empties in/loads out"( or loads in/empties out) system for your coal operation, do look into it. It means never having to manually load and unload the hopper cars. It will mean buying 2 of every car number, but after a while, people tend to tire of having all that busy-work.
I just watched so many books I recognized and thought "did you just nick my book shelf" lol :-) this is helping me alot as I have pretty much followed the steps :-) I'll be having my layout in the garage, I have decided to set it on a fictitious preserved railway situated in the midlands (so the majority of the loco's will be LMS and GWR :-) ) it's gonna be awesome, also you IC82 were an inspiration with your fantastic channel:-)
Super cool how you show the layout of your home...loved that visual.
Very interesting. I can see Fiddler`s Ferry from here on a clear day. really useful, thanks.
Finally, a civilized level by ic82
Very good video, I love the layout in the 00/HO Set Track Plan Book shown in the first few pages. I am thinking of a 4x8 foot layout or a 5x9 foot layout. Now I just need to decide where to put it. Sigh
you really make the bookish side of our hobby interesting when i started out everything was so dry (BORING) i now combine the old and new after all if you rivet count too much and don't play where is the joy keep the excellent work and vids up rob
This is what William Shakespeare said when he build a model railway: To DCC or not to
DCC? That's the question.
I
Green room no go, may contain awesome Acorns and Amigas!
Thank you sooooo much ic82 been waiting for ages
Great video. As I'm at a similar point with a new layout of my own this was really useful covering aspects to further my own planning. Thanks very much I look forward to the next one.
I love MGR wagons and loops. Sounds like a cool idea!
Very inspiring video there InterCity82
Great video. Lots of useful tips. Glad you are back :-)
Maybe going a big overkill but I'm planning ahead for after i finally move out to do an n gauge railway all through my future home...its hard to plan when I dint know where I'll be living yet but um getting ideas for small areas thug will eventually be joined together
One really good tip is to design a complex layout you can build in stages, but put in the bits you will need later, from the start. So if you have a single loop, but plan on a double, make sure not only the base is large enough, but put in the points that will connect the two - then play with the one loop, until you can afford to add a second. if you just design and make a simple layout it's surprising how much you have to scrap when you want to expand it. been there. done that :(
I saw you at Crewe station when you were doing a video for you for your RUclips channel I watch you every single day I have nearly finished all of you for your videos now and I'm going onto another RUclipsr but I will still watch your videos InterCity82 I hope you still keep on doing these videos but I still know where you live in Crewe don't worry I'm not going to come to your house I this is the last video I watching of you InterCity82 so watch and I'll tell them the people who went to trains to watch you as soon as think they're getting no good with something good something good off you from advice so keep up the good work
C J Freezer does a good range of model railway track plan books as well as Peco.
Your house it's 100 times bigger than mine! Almost all rooms are good for a layout
Hey that was the railway exhibition at the secc in Glasgow well some of it was im surprised I never saw u their ! Also this helped a lot !
Oh here we go with the books again
I wish I could begin to have any sort of model Railway.
But I'm out of space, I have barely space for a soldering station where I live.
Great stuff!
Ggaming2000, depends whether the garage is air conditioned and heated as well. Model railroad layouts don't like large swings in temperatures anymore than a real railroad. It would be best to enclosed the garage and add air and heat. My layout is small, a 4x6 feet layout not any larger than a Hornby Track mat located in my smallest bedroom. Size isn't everything, small layouts are swell too.
Another great video! when will you do another one?
Another great video Ic82 :D
WOOT! oww boy i have been waiting for this! :D
Hurry up with part 3
Awesome dude very helpful
Yeeeesssss finally yeeessss yeeessssss yesssss your tha best i have been waiting for so long for this
When I get the space. i want to do a 1980s scottish region layout based on a small through station
same time next year?
Hi Will love your vids just a thought have you talked to your local builder about some external stairs to the attic?
I use attic
And one thing keep up the good work in the InterCity82 good luck keep this RUclips channel running for you and I will I will like all your videos and I will send you a train if you give me the link from from where you live I will give you a train to unbox and keep up the good work well done InterCity82
thx so much for making this vid
☑Professionalism
☑Interesting
☑Useful
Julian Hornby ☑ Checkboxes
13:25 the subtitle of the N-Gauge book says "Starting you on the right track" Get it? Track? Railroading? lol
Please upload more often
I have a problem. I live in a flat and I don’t have any space. So I have my track on floor in my bedroom.
As a historical miniatures wargamer who watches your channel primarily for the scenery/terrain building content, I was outraged... outraged I say... at your characterization of the Roman occupation of Numidia as "boring". The account of Scipio's adventures in Africa written by Julius Caesar is one of the most gripping parts of his history of the Roman Civil Wars, and possibly the most accurate (since the rest of the book seems have every city in Italy surrendering and apologising profusely as soon as Caesar rides within 10 miles of the front gate). All this shilly-shallying about with freight trains carrying sweets and talking tank engines with smiley faces has clearly turned your brains to mush. Buck your ideas up, young feller-me-lad!
:-D All joking apart, I really enjoyed this video. It's fascinating and sometimes really useful to see how things are done in "neighbouring" hobbies. Looking forward to seeing this series progress. Keep up the good work.
Never heard of 'Opinions' ?
Mason Jordan Never heard of "joking"? or maybe reading the whole comment before replying?
Thanks for the tips on the layouts I'm building a Thomas and friends layout eara will be based on the classic series by the rev w awdry
Building a layout in the garage attached to the house is that a good place to do it cause I don't want it go damp
FINALLY! :D
When you threw the books I thought " I never knew there was homework involved "
I'm building GNSRY and LMS based layout
this is kinda dumb but look at all the magazine and books to throw at spiders
id go into a foruth and fith catagory, wireing ( u all call em electrics ) and scenery
Bloody hell! You live in a mansion!
6:33 Make it rain, Will.
I have a book sale today in school. I HATE SCHOOL.
Phgaming Come Watch don't give useless information we all know school is boring
I would make / would like to make a Br blue because my dad as lot of the Lima one like a full 8car hst a class 47 two 50 two 52 and full mk 2s and when are you doing a mail video
Hi, when is part 3 coming??
5:07 Well I guess we know what that means now :D
TRAIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNS
The next part plz.
will is part 3 up I can't find it
When will part 3 it be up
I don't know if anybody can answer this but i'll ask anyway. I have heard of people making a layout of a real station and then using a real timetable for running the locos on but I have yet to find anywhere or any site that shows me these old timetables. I wanted to know as I am interested in modeling LNER railway locations and would like to do a model version of Hitchin. If anybody can locate me to a site or anything, let me know.
Were is part One?
part 3?
When u making part4
Omg will to many magazines
HOLY
Umpteen coal hoppers?
Are you still around Will?
I am making a made up preserved railway

hey will? at the moment i am actually building my OO gauge layout and I have videos! just check them out on my channel if you wish (you don't have to but it would be appreciated) also i just wanted to know what OO scale model train company would be the best if i wanted to get the best detail and running quality? Thanks. Lettuce
thomas and friends layout for me :D no judging
Where is part 3 not trying to nag bud just asking
fuzzythebacca Editing it now! Been sat on it for over a year.
Cool! At long last a youtuber who answer comments thanks! I live in America and I just bought an hornby 0-4-0 gwr as my first loco for the oval loop that used to be my dad's in my basement and it's all thanks to you and I love the gwr because duck and Oliver were my favorite engines on thomas and friends when I was little and I love pannier tanks and yours is the most fabulous pannier to ever grace the planet
Will I might have read you description of your child's room totally wrong but are you having a child? I'm so sorry if your offended but that's what I picked up off of the child's room description
Umm hi
First! I think..
I think I tried with the other guy.
I'm sorry intercity, I just had to. I have never, in my life done this. You just happened to be a victim of circumstance.
Baby?
pronounced pEko, not pIko..
