Model Trains in the RAIN - LIVE Coal Loads in HO
Vložit
- čas přidán 21. 07. 2020
- Welcome back to the layout! Tonight we are going to take a further look at coal operations on the NS Asheville District Layout. In the previous 3 videos in this series, we look at how we load the live coal loads with a working flood loader, how we take the heavy trains up a steep grade with helper locomotives, and how we unload the live loads with a fully automated rotary dumper. In this final part to the series, we look at how empty coal trains are returned to the mine. The coal we use for our loads is Woodland Scenics Coarse Coal.
Also in this video on operations, we look at a unique addition to operations - RAIN! Rain effects were added in post-production editing.
Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching y'all! In other news, I put a song on Spotify! If you like the videos, give it listen :)

I thoroughly enjoy all of your model railroad videos, and I just checked out your song and it's phenomenal, man. Love the lyrics, love the sound, love the feel. Followed you on Spotify. Keep it up man.

@Jordan Axtman their custom parts where you can remove the old door and drill holes to add a open door, I forgot which ho scale parts company sells those parts. But you can search up "open hatch doors ho scale parts"
I love all the lights on the power. Really looks realistic.
Thanks Jeff!
Yes, the extensive and very well-done lighting adds a whole new dimension to "nighttime" model railroading.
when you show your non-train fan friend and he thinks it’s real. You are one of the most realistic looking modelers around. Good job mate!
This is nuts! The layout detail, the lights and signals, the extra sound effects, the post-production work. Amazing!
The model railroad community here on youtube is pretty rad. I might have to get back into my ho scale
This hobby fosters great imaginations and fun!
As soon as I saw rain, I knew Josh took it to a whole other level. Those night time oops are awesome!!!
Thanks Matt!
I've never seen such a fantastic HO layout or any other guage for that matter. The "Rain" blew me away. Yet, all of it did. "Motoring" the multiple locomotives to operate together is another great talent. I hope there'll be more videos. Many, many are very good. These jump to a much higher level!!!
Amazing realism! Your nighttime lighting effects are dramatic, especially the lightning.
Thank you!
Absolutely incredible. You really have a wonderful ability to tell a story and create a mood and the realism in your layout speaks to your extremely deft modeling skills. I love watching your videos. Thank you and please keep them coming!
This is the most realistic model train video I have ever seen! Everything from the narration, the positioning of the cameras and the actual HO trains were wonderful! Great job!
This is remarkable! Best model railroading operations video ever??? Perhaps. There should be some kind of awards for this level of quality. You're an inspiration to get back into the hobby
Josh, thanks for the kind words! We definitely hope to encourage others in it, and are always happy to help!
HO.... I heard that N scale is nice,.. but you can't do yardwork with it.... Messing with N scale back in the day... I believe it.
Josh, excellent comment. Was going to write the same thing.
Absolutely brilliant fantastic job amazingly so cool love it cheers KC Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺😎👍
You should definitely run Heritage Units and SD70ACE more often, it would make even cooler! It is so crazy how realistic this layout is, I will never get over how cool it looks. Great video and keep up the great work.
Thanks! Working on a video now that has Southern 8099 in it! But I will keep that in mind for future videos :)
SD70ACEs and heritage units are overrated, i prefer the common power seen in most videos
Your attention to details is amazing.
Oh ho I do like the effects. Not only a great layout but also always a pleasure to watch the videos you make. Very well done :)
I loved the rain. Night running and rain, it does not get any better than that!!
Thanks!! We agree!
just keep them coming, I always look forward to you and your Dad's work!
Please do more of these! I really good representation of the prototype! Narration is also on point!
Wow what I just watched was amazing I love this layout a lot! Thanks for sharing.
I like the dim twilight illumination and the camera at grade level. Also the way the train starts so slowly and gradually heightens the illusion the the engines are HEAVY HEAVY. An excellent and very realistic presentation with interesting and relevant narration.
Great video! This really inspired me to start working on a model railroad. It's not going to be ANYWHERE as good as yours, but your railroad has been a great source of inspiration and awe. Keep up the great work!
Thanks Jonathan! Means a lot to both of us. If you ever need any help, don't hesitate to reach out! We're happy to help :)
Josh and Tom
I'll bet you will be surprised at how good it will be as you take your time and apply all your skills (and learn new ones along the way)!!!
Tom ... and Josh
Love to keep watching operations over and over...lol...and its all because of your time devoted to us...Thanks again
As I am watching this, a thunderstorm has moved into my area and has started raining.
Awesome photography, very realistic.
Love the way the layout rolls around the room.
This is the Best channel I follow for rail operations. And, now you have added environmental conditions and night time operations.
Thank you for all the work that you and your father have done on your layout and for sharing with us all.
Vincent, thank you so much! That certainly means a lot. Thanks for watching! - Josh
Excellent video, incredible edits with the rain really makes the video pop!
The realism on this layout is amazing especially the lightning
I've really enjoyed this series about the coal train operations ! Brilliant ! :-)
Your videos never disappoint. I felt like I was right there trackside railfanning. Awesome video!!
Great video as always! I love how your camera shots looks like your filming the real thing, especially when you add the graphic overlay and sounds. Always looking forward to your next video!
Thanks for noticing the small details! Getting the camera low definitely adds to the realism. - Josh
First I've seen a layout with lighting, love it plus nice to see a night scene for a change.
I just 'found' your channel today and I am so glad that I have. I'm in Uk and I haven't had much interest in the massive hardware that is normal in American trains, keeping to smaller layouts and themes. So it was like a fresh air to see what you have achieved with your outfit. For me the crowning had to be the thunderstorm, I honestly believed it was a real live set. The patience and attention to detail you show is a credit to you sir. Subbed.
Amazing nighttime effects. Watch for rain and lightning across sky at 9:30 minutes. So realistic it's like you are actually there. You keep the camera angle down low where a person would see that view if he were actually there!
I'm in awe! This was optimal!
Josh you are just amazing at the things you think of and come up with. Thanks for sharing, I loved the thunder storm!!!
Real loco sounds make it even better, keep up the work, NSmodeler24.
Everything is so perfect
I love all the work you put into this! Great job!
Probably the best night time (raining) operations I ever seen. Great job!
That's quite the compliment. Thanks David!
Your rainy night, and night time lighting is OUTSTANDING!!!! Your videos get better and better all the time!
Thanks Ted!!
Wow! This is a top notch layout!
Enjoyed watching.
Wow! An awesome video that I've wanted to see for a while, and some great music! Really outstanding, greatly beat my expectations! 👏👏👏 I'm amazed at the lyrics, melody, and very professional quality.
Cool layout, sounds and lights.
Outstanding production Josh! Always enjoyable to watch and the lightning was great. Cheers.
Awesome
Loved the thunder&lightning great effect the lighting in the locomotives looks great thanks for sharing.
FANTASTIC . . .
I don't know how you do it but it gets better every time. The rain is crazy cool.
I found the lightning effect awesome
Very nice. Great looking visuals and realistic operations. Thanks for sharing. 🚂
This channel is as good as it gets! This is not only realistic but also relaxing, inspiring and especially for me - educational.
hi Josh, Great as usual. Thanks tons!
Only comment, if its a rainy stormy night ... for the video couldn't spread a damp tissue on the station's platform just for a better visual effect?
Enjoyed the ride!
Cheers
Richard
I wanna see 1024 leading a train!
Looks like an awesome locomotive!
Great video as always josh!
1024, doesn't have lights (yet), but as soon as it does, you can bet that it will!
You know that guy hanging around the station. You know, the one leaning on the post. He looks pretty shady. I wouldn't trust him. Just saying......
He asked me if he could borrow 5 bucks. I walked away.
If you see something, say something.... lol
Grady Cain no, leave the man alone, he just livin life 😂
i know why bro i asked him for a up big boy ho scale loco and he just be waitin there for me to get him the "stuff" lol XD
guys you should either let the guards keep an eye on him and his spray cans or quietly thank him for prettying up the freight wagons
Got Dang! It was So realistic!!!
Josh you have blown me away just when I think you can't top a video you did it can not wait to see whats next. Guess your keeping up with the motto "Road of Innovations"
Very impressive!
Your layout is amazing, your videos top notch, and your sound editing and narrative is excelsior. Thanks Derek for sharing your many talents with us!
I love the layout. I have always wanted to build one based on the area of my home in wnc. Would love to one day have a scaled down model of the csx yard in Erwin tn running along the clinchfield RR through ky and wv also
Awesome vid with great narrative!!
Excellent video, some of the best HO scale night shooting I have seen!!! -Ken
Great layout and expertly produced video.
My man...this is quality work. Well done.
My goodness, Josh! Always love coming back for more of your videos! They’re really good inspirations in the hobby! I enjoy seeing all these projects that a lot of us especially I never imagined that we’d see on layouts! Keep posting. Also, if you missed it, was wanting to know how you do the sound effects on the layout that you mentioned in the last video.
Well, the video & layout is beyond exceptional.
If the major magazines don't publish your models then they can go to hell.
Very inspirational reminding me to have fun! Great upload,
Thanks for the courage to show your work!
Awesome 👍
Cool NS AC44C6M! Hopefully some company starts making those soon, along with the CSX CM44AC rebuilds.
Great video. Loved it
Awesome!
I like how you modeled the open cab door on the AC44C6M!
Great work it takes a lot of work and good machinery to get the work done!
Awesome effects and lighting. I would love to spend a few weeks weathering your structures. Not a critique, just an observation. Your song is excellent.
I always enjoy your videos, dispite having to suspend belief a bit regarding the geography of that part of North Carolina. :) I'm modeling the same line, but the eastern end, between Morganton and Spencer/Salisbury in 1974, in N scale.
I live right outside of Salisbury. Are you in the area as well?
Man those trains crawl so nicely
Very good narrative as always!
Thank you Richard!
Nice Josh!! Night time operations
on your layout prove that you
and your Dad did a great job of
laying track and turnouts!!!
Also love that Southern caboose
at the station!!!!
Thanks Scott!
Nicely done and I watched the DIB video about the grade very steep.
Awesomeness!
Keep’em coming! I love your vids
AWESOME!
Very thoroug your layout and perfect Holy Bible verse, congratulation!!
That was pretty cool opp session and the background flash and lighting is fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more
Thanks Chris! The flash was just from the light on our DCC controllers! -Josh
Still cool.
Wow just wow!!! The sound editing along with your narration makes this video something worthy of tv or Netflix series! Great work I’m a super fan. I want to start on my layout which will prototype Charlotte NS & CSX mainlines.
Thank you so much! - Josh
Great job

I plan on modeling the B-line for Norfolk southern. I hope to have as much detail on that layout as this one does.
This video is even more proof to me that this is the premier HO Scale layout on CZcams, Awesome video Josh!
That means a lot. Thank you so much Lucas! - Josh
Great Video as always.
Thanks Joe
You really make me want to get into the hobby!! I've always been a railroad nut and toyed with HO scales as a kid, but never really settled down long enough to start modelling. Once I move, I think I'll start a layout and work on it with my grandkids. :o)
Best video so far.
Thanks!! - Josh
What an amazing layout. The thunderstorm effect you added was really cool. You must have watched Kathy Millet's video about adding rain to videos. Love the layout. Loved the video. Stay well. -Wil 👍
Wow....can't believe somebody gave u a thumbs down....we'll call these engines...NIGHTCRAWLERS..... As always Josh....so cool....👍
Haha I guess you can't win them all. Thanks for the kind words Val! - Josh
