I enjoy your videos very much Joe, good to see you on here when your able. Your layout is more a railroad than a layout. Wonderful detailed work. Stay well and best to the family though the fall season.
Joe, another great video. Buildings, lighting and scenic detail is great. Thanks for all the tips in how you put this all together. I never miss a video because I learn something new all the time.
The wait is over. Ciba Geigy looks great. You are a master craftsman. As for your question about the back drops, I would not go back to re paint. Don’t believe Picasso, Monet or Rembrandt would have questioned their work so why should you.
I like the fact you gave information of what you were building...sometimes things are built with little or no research and it shows. I must have missed what and where you got the road material. What are your thoughts of adding people to a scene? The results are great
Thanks. Yes people are coming… I promise. I keep saying it but haven’t gotten to it yet, ugh. The road material is craft foam that I got from michaels. You can find it in the kids craft area. Thanks for watching!
Joe, every time I see your layout it brings back memories of taking the Turnpike to exit 9 for countless trips to Raceway park. You have nailed the central Jersey atmosphere, without a doubt. Thanks for sharing with us.
Joe so good to see a vid from you. That was outstanding, scenery bis one of my favorite things to work on as it brings the layout to life. This section that you did came out outstanding it really came to life you did a really great job. Can you tell what is the name of the green stuff in that bottle for ground cover you used I need that. Woodlawn scenics doesn't look that good you must be using something else and I would love to use some on my layout .. thanks. Hope you and your family have a nice Thanksgiving. Gary
Thank you. The water tower I purchased off eBay about 5 years ago. They were scratch built by a guy in Florida. Unfortunately he closed his eBay store. I should have bought more…ugh!
The grade up the Ciba is @1%. I could pull this off because the trains going into the plant are short. I’m just using CA (superglue) for the trees and use zip kicker to set the glue quickly. This avoids me having to stand there and hold the trees or clamp them. Great questions thanks for watching.
Very, very, nice. I sometimes think building scenery is the most fun, although laying track is fun too.....thanks
Thanks you sir!

@@centraljerseyconrailinnsca5676 just realized my comment had a typo. Thankfully, you got the gist of what I was saying.
Very well thought out and loving the transformation from plaster to real life.
Thank you Big Bill!

Thank you Gary. Scenic express is where I get all my products from. Thanks for watching,
Joe, great video as always and very inspiring. Where did you get the water tower in the background?
Thank you. The water tower I purchased off eBay about 5 years ago. They were scratch built by a guy in Florida. Unfortunately he closed his eBay store. I should have bought more…ugh!
Looks GREAT. Is that straight acrylic paint into the sprayer?
I am using model flex acrylic paint. It is prethinned for airbrush.
•What is the glue you are using to place the trees?
• what is the grade to the Ciba facility? So how big is the area you have for it?
The grade up the Ciba is @1%. I could pull this off because the trains going into the plant are short. I’m just using CA (superglue) for the trees and use zip kicker to set the glue quickly. This avoids me having to stand there and hold the trees or clamp them. Great questions thanks for watching.
