Welcome to Model Railroader Video Plus
No David? No problem...at least this month! Why? Because you've still got the entire MR/MRVP staff ready and willing to help address your hobby questions! This time Jenny, Ben, Cody, Eric, Hal, and even Contributing Editor Gerry Leone pitch in to cover topics related to benchwork, track, scenery, modeling, painting, and plenty more!
Now that the long and short spans are assembled, MR's Eric White heads to our N scale Canadian Canyons layout to test fit the signature structure. That's where he spies a slight problem with the size of the span! With some assistance from the chief engineer, Eric is able to continue building out the last few components.
In this video, David builds the initial framework for the upper (visible) level of our N scale Canadian Canyons layout. But before, he tops off the lower section, he first shows how to hide some of the risers and supports found along the staging yard.
In this episode of Off The Rails, show host Gerry Leone talks about common problems you might encounter when mixing modeling paints. He then suggests a few plumbing products that can be used to provide simple solutions!
MRVP's Charlie Conway visits Oregon’s Hull-Oakes Lumber Company to explore an industry with historically strong ties to the railroads of North America. In this first of two TCB episodes, you’ll get to see exclusive insider views of the harvesting, hauling, and cutting processes in and around the sawmill. Plus, you’ll gain new appreciation of the people and specialized skills required to perform those tasks...but only if you're a subscriber to MR Video Plus!
Can you believe it? Trains are up and running on both the new and original sections of the Olympia Logging Co. On30 layout! But the "fun run" is short-lived, as David works to first complete the trackwork, and then install a short timber trestle.
