- The buildings are a big part of the model railway layout. I picked up from Bunters Yard these vangaurd warehouse ends which have finally given purpose to the far end of the layout.

Also from Skytrex I picked up their railway sleeper platform section which I thought were the perfect fit for collecting goods from visiting vans and wagons. - Zábava
Recently found your channel, some very interesting stuff your doing generally across the videos. Im coming back to the hobby so I have been looking at what's happening after my few years away and found your channel. I particularly like your detailing older or cheaper models, thats something i enjoyed doing. Keep up the good work, its inspiring for those who may never have done this before.
Excellent video. The latest models and layout look superb. Thanks so much for sharing. I've subscribed!
Great video. I have that platform kit to put together, so it was helpful to see how you tackled it.
Good job trist the only extra thing is maby a small hand crane on the loading dock use to see them on small platforms like that.
Hi Trist, You inspired me to build a similar size exhibition layout and do a 'how to' series on mine. Mine is also 1200mm long but mine is a little deeper 460mm. Having fun. Lets encourage more guys to do this. A micro layout is doable on a budget and a project that can be finished to a very high standard of detail in a reasonable time. We can add multiple scenes that tell a story. Yes trees are important. My new layout will have several, despite cost and too much track on my previous shelf layouts precluded. Keep up the good work. Regards Bernie in NZ
Looking great, some platforms did not have sheds, etc, next to them, so it's personal taste. You could have a faded grounded van wagon that has been used as a store if you wanted. I'm looking forward to the next video.
This is coming along really well. Just a thought, how about fitting some industrial fencing about 2.5 cm off the new industrial units to create a no man's land of long grass, buddleia and fox gloves, a few pallets, metal barrels and a car bonnet that may have found their way over the fence.
Nice little warehouse and loading dock. As for my project, I'm working on a N Scale 2'x4' round and round layout to take to train shows. It's a simple layout with only three points a loading dock and coal mine. Set in Pennsylvania during the early 1970's. I've found that a simple layout is better for a show because I spend most of my time visiting with guests.
Thanks for the update Trist! I'm working on an N Gauge Roundhouse layout ATM. 4x2 baseboard. I like the back scene warehouse! Think I might employ the same idea, using Arch retaining walls! Looking forward to the next episode!
Hi Tris, thanks for the video, you sound like you’re back to your healthy self. I’m about to see if my old track and locomotives are still usable after 30+ years in storage before I start track planning in the loft layout in earnest. However, you’ve inspired me to do a similar size shunting layout so I can practice / build up my skills before attempting the main loft layout.
liking the lazer cut kits Tris ! I see Metcalfe card buildings have come back ? I always found them very enjoyable to build .
I think with the sleeper platform, I would have rusted and stained the areas where the metal fittings have been removed to give it a little more realism, these things got pretty grotty during their time in use
You have done a very good job on the little layout wish i could do a layout as detailed and realist as you have 👍👍👍👍❤❤❤
Enjoyable video . Interesting to see the different kits
Nicely done..thanks for sharing 😊😊
Not at the stage of putting buildings on my layout project yet but I'm defo gonna use Bunters Yard for some of my buildings...watched a lot of their videos on their channel quality stuff ...yard coming along well mate 👍 Dan
I been steadily working on my layout as I now found a Canada based supplier for rail way tracks.
Still toying around with track plans idea's for the south side o my layout though and can not seem to come to something I like.
Excellent video thank you
Nice small layout and Update. Just startting a new 00 gauge Layout and CZcams Channel - early days yet though
First comment. Nice, and great progress on the Shunting layout.
Anyways, waiting for the Loft Layout & OO9 scale stuff.
Looking great, I get so much from your videos. Like your painting techniques, was that acrylics paint you were using with minimal on the brush ?
cool vid
