    Simply beautiful. Your use of forced perspective worked great. A layout doesn't have to be big with lots of trains to be good, making a smaller layout means more time and energy can be focused on improving scenery and trackwork as well as detailing the trains you do have.

    A very nice layout. I may be modeling a 1940s-50s American mountain town, but I'm using track (and accessories) from a Japanese manufacturer. I also found your step-by-step description of your layout's construction very interesting, as I enjoy seeing the way model railroads take shape.

      I am also aiming to model from the 1940s to the 1950s. The prototype is a local private railway in Japan.
      The track uses Shinohara in Japan and Fleischmann in Germany. Woodland Scenics' Sub Terrain is also useful.
      I'm looking forward to your layout!

      @@tenq5503 You're quite welcome, and thank you for your kind words :); I will definitely upload videos of my layout once I begin construction. I'm also planning on using the Woodland Scenics Subterrain System, and will be using Kato Unitrack, as I've found it one of the most reliable brands of sectional track with the roadbed included. Moreover, a fellow member of my model railroad club (who has his own UA-cam channel) is not only very interested in high-speed model trains, but has also visited Japan in the past.

    • @tenq5503
      @tenq5503  3 роки тому

      The reason I used Fleischmann is that the radius of the curve is small(R1/356.5mm) and there are curve point(turnout). Kato is R550mm, which is big for our layout. However, it is difficult to obtain now. Currently, most of the main line has been replaced by Shinohara.

      Actually, I used Fleischmann / R1 for the first layout.Now you have a vehicle that can run to some extent.
      This time, I used a flexible track aiming for a beautiful transition curve.

    What radius curves did you use

    • @tenq5503
      @tenq5503  3 роки тому +1

      The minimum radius is R356.5, which is the same as Fleischmann / R1. The locomotive has been modified to run on this curve. For example, the diameter of the front wheel has been reduced by 1 mm.

    • @jordansfrye
      @jordansfrye 2 роки тому

      So is that like 18 radius or 15

    Beautiful layout! But ruined by the steam engine not having the chuff-rate correct. FOUR CHUFFS PER REVOLUTION!! Ruins the realism and makes it not fun to watch the train running through your stunningly crafted layout. Sad.
