Episode 4 was an excellent how to video doing the river scene. Back in the day I could only dream of doing this. The key important lesson is”PATIENCE” the hardest part of successful model railroading. Bravo for a job well done. Phil
I think you made the right choice to go with a single color. If you were going for more of a river vibe, the depth change would look better. However, with a small creek like what you made, the depth would probably be very similar.
Good choice with the plaster. I have heard that sculpt-a-mold can sometimes leak resin. However, if you mix mod podge with the sculpt-a-mold, then it prevents leaks.
That looks gorgeous! Amazing work, I will be having a similar shallow bridge scene on a part of my layout with a double track truss bridge, inspired by local places I’ve visited growing up. This will help so much!
Love it! Starting my own layout and your vids help alot! Are you considering adding more industries to the layout in the future? An easy way to add inustries without greatly changing your trackplan is to cut off a bit of track leading to your warehouse and adding a switch, that way you could add another industry to your layout.
Great video!! Just one question, what are the measurements of your river? I am doing a similar one but I don’t know how much resin I will be needing. Thank you!!
Thanks man! My river is 2 feet long and about 7 inches wide. Woodland scenics does have a website or app where you can find out how much you need exactly! I think I saw that on there official UA-cam channel on Deep Pour Water
Thanks for this, I'm newbie learning it for my son. With the resin water. Is it rubbery? We have a long hair cat and I'm just wondering if I did a water feature is it will end up with hair stuck to it lol. Thanks
With the Woodland Scenics resin I used it was not rubbery at all very hard and if you keep your cat away while it dries no hair should stick to it after the 24 hours of curing haha
As someone who’s still collecting all the materials and track I need to build my n scale layout even though your scale is HO I can’t thank you enough for all this amazing information. And that static electricity trick my man you got a sub from me that’s just absolutely genius❤
I’ll look into making an official track plan on a track plan software. As for industries it depends on what you like! There are so many industries served by railroads, on my layout I’m going to have a warehouse industry that gets boxcars and a cement company that gets covered hoppers! There’s gas, oil, furniture, food, grain, paper, and so many more
I love watching this guy lol

That looks fantastic! Thanks for showing your process.
Thank you!
Hey, Just found your Channel
I will start to build a Huge Layout next Year
The straw for the ripples is a great idea! I've seen people use an airbrush but I have never thought about a straw.
Airbrush would save your breath haha
@@charlessapp1835 even a small air compressor might be good
Good job my friend, a river in the train layout.
Swamp in my layout with muddy water.
Gators.
Frogs.
Thank you! That sounds awesome
Really nice! I added a gator to mine, since I have an FEC line. Looks nice with him under water.
Awesome ! Good inspiration and instruction for my own layout process :)
Wow, I was more impressed with this then I thought I'd be..well done..well done..
Hella scene, dude! Now you need to paint the ceiling blue so the "water" reflects it like sky
That would be cool!
You do great tutorials and I appreciate you actually showing the process. Everything turned out fantastic!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching

That looks really good. Nice job ... really digging the time made static grass applicator
Thanks for showing your build process. Always enjoy your videos.
Thank you!
I am really impressed! I’m going to make an attempt at this. Thank you for your vid/instructions.
Outstanding job !!! Looks fantastic and very well explained 😍
Thank you 😁
Great job kid!! Everything we do can be a learning experience. Don't be afraid to try anything when building scenery, that's the fun part!
Thank you and I agree! You gotta try new stuff or you’ll never grow as a modeler
Subtle, subtle, subtle.
That looks fantastic! Job well done.
I did say subtle and river a lot in this video lol but thank you!
Sorry if you thought I was implying you said subtle too much.
I was trying to say that the whole river scene was very subtle.
I've not seen anyone sand the river base as much but your logic is in the proof. Very nice looking river and banks. I'm excited to start my river,too.
Really well done, love the efforts you went to with the grass.
Thank you!
Looks fantastic
Excellent. Very impressive work.
it turned out great 👍🙂
That looked super nice and Detailed nice job 👍
Thank you!
Absolutely awesome video
Great job. Looks fantastic and very realistic. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
Great job! Looks very nice.
....it looks fantastic!!!!
Great work! Looks really good.
Looks amazing! Great job!
Nicely done. Inspired me to try as well.
Nice video mate. That river came out great! Nice to see the resin pour went well with no leaks.
Thanks man! I’m really glad there were no leaks haha
River looks incredible! Well done!
Thank you!
You did a fantastic job on that scene!
Absolutely fantastic 👍👍👍
Wow! That turned out amazing 👍🏼
top notch for sure
Nicely done. Your workmanship is outstanding.
Thank you!
That's Fantastic! Excellent work on river and details!
Thank you!
Looks great 👍
Well done. Quite impressive.
Thank you 😁
Well done, sir.
Wow, looks fantastic.
Thank you man!
Looks great. Ty for showing the process
Thank you for watching!
Great scene! Thank you for showing the process, especially the water. Hoping to tackle water sometime in the future
Thank you!
Nice job. Looks great
Thank you!
Woah, this looks amazing!!
Looking great ❤!
Thank you!
What an excellent tutorial! It gives me lots of inspiration that, with patience and preplanning,
I too can do this. Glad I subscribed.
Thank you very much!
Great job !!
great video
That looks awesome! You did a fantastic job!
Thank you!
sweet progress!
Thank you!
Great video, your scene turned out amazing!
Good choice with the plaster. I have heard that sculpt-a-mold can sometimes leak resin. However, if you mix mod podge with the sculpt-a-mold, then it prevents leaks.
Now I see you put glue on top of the plaster. In which case, you would have been fine with the sculpt-a-mold.
This looks outstanding! definitely going to steal this idea for inspiration when I do mine!
Thank you! I hope to see the your video on your layout doing this in the future!
Love your videos!
Thank you 😁
I think the down hill water has a nice effect. If you level the layout note it will look really cool. Great work
Looks good! 😊
Thank you 😁
Perfect video! I'm saving this for future reference! Thanks!
Thank you!
Really good video and tutorial looking really good well done
Thank you!
Great video 👏 awesome layout 👍
Thanks man!
Wow, it turned out purrfect! Good job!
Thank you 🐱😁

Thank you very much! That’s awesome though! Having inspiration from places in real life helps a lot
Fantastic video.. given me some great inspiration for my first layout..
Thank you!
Your videos always blow me away. Great job man.
Thanks dude!

Cool video and nice layout 👌 🎉🎉😊
A blue ribbon for work well done.
Very Nice !!!
That turned out great. A fish or two would have looked neat in the water at the edge of the layout.
That would have been cool! I should probably pick up a 3D printer sometime
Looks great! What a good video. Keep it up
Thank you man!
Nice work!
Very good length and pace to the video.
Thank you!
Another great video!
Thanks man!
This was an awesome video! First time I’ve seen a river pour start to finish. Now I want to do one even though I have no space 😂
Thank you! Do it you can always make a little stream or something haha
looks fire. i am doing one myself lol
Heck yeah!
Its finally here let’s gooo
Hi Top Railroad & it's is Randy and i like yours video is Cool & Thanks Top Railroad & Friends Randy
Thank you!
thanks great job
Awesome
11:07 you 🐱 in the train layout.
Scooby Doo is a good dog.
Scrappy Doo is a nice pup.
My dog Scooby Dum.
😁😁😁
love the vids dude:D
Thanks man!
Heel gaaf weer👌
Finally I been waiting
The tilt I’d say worked in ur favor. Gives a lil bit of a down slope river
True, good way too look at it
Great video!! Just one question, what are the measurements of your river? I am doing a similar one but I don’t know how much resin I will be needing. Thank you!!

Just wondering if you have considered putting signals on your layout
Eventually I will! I just need to learn more about the wiring and prototypes
Do you think you could make a track plan and what are some good industries
I’ll look into making an official track plan on a track plan software. As for industries it depends on what you like! There are so many industries served by railroads, on my layout I’m going to have a warehouse industry that gets boxcars and a cement company that gets covered hoppers!
There’s gas, oil, furniture, food, grain, paper, and so many more
@@TopRailroad thank you. When will your next video be posted?
Can you make a track plan of
this layout?
How did you go about creating the foundation of the bridge?
I cut the foundation from the foam! I do it in episode 2 of these layout series if you want to see in detail how I did it
How did you find the smell of the resin?
It wasn’t bad at all, couldn’t really smell it unless you were up close to it
I personally thought that the trees looked nice
Just a note for later if you mix shredded tissue paper 2:1. with your hydrocal you'll have your sculptomold
Good tip!
What camera do you use?
I use a Sony ZV1
Ok thanks so much! 😊
You should make a intermodal yard
If I had a bigger layout I definitely would!
What camera do you use
I use a Sony ZV1
@@TopRailroad thanks
Were the grass tuff actually 89.99 that's what it says on the package
No no 😂 it was 9 dollars not 89! I wouldn’t buy them for that price haha
