OR12... i just saw that you are in the gta... i thiught i heard you say you were at a hobby shop out west. i watched the leafs hammer the habs last night on hnc... nice pick up of oreilly from st. louis... i wonder what toronto had to give up to get him... will be tough beating the bruins but hopefully things will change with him. he played here in buffalo then was sent to st louis and won the cup and was the playoffs mvp. go figure !!!
I modeled the Chicago Northwestern. But I am a big fan of Canadian national and Canadian Pacific railroad engines they always just look awesome👍 I also use joint compound for parking lots and Roads it really works well and you get a lot of it and it goes a long way. Just a hint never throw away extra parts always keep them you can use them for someplace else even the plastic sperse can be turned into pipe work keep it up it looks good🚂
Wow looks great. I love how the engine shed looks and the little details make it standout like the little tanks. And I see that you got new locomotive, they look amazing with the engine shed. Great video!
OR 12... i really like how you are building your engine facility !!! this type of facility has always been my favorite thing to plan and build, and the "business office" is a great touch, too !! yes, the pikestuff directions are rather sad in the fact that they actually tell you in several of their direction sheets that " we kind of messed up" when they were making their plastic model molds/products.... i believe they use multiple parts from many different kits and the gutters remain one of their biggest mistakes !!! here is a trick for you... as i am sure you know, companies like plastruct and evergreen make tons of different types of plastic for us modelers ( modellers in canadian !!!) so i always keep a good supply of their small "U" shaped lengths of plastic on hand just to make up for pikestuffs mistakes !!! i spray them light gray and they look just fine... a cheap fix, too !!! looks like you are planning nicely as well... i actually use pencil, tablet and graph paper when exploring facility options for my layout, usually over morning coffee or evening beer, then on to hockey night in canada !!! honestly, you would be surprised how often a thought process will change when written down prior to starting the project. i screwed up so many times building things with their respective placement in mind that pre-job planning on an engineers tablet saved my sorry butt from many more mistakes !!! i combine this with google searches, both by modellers AND prototypes, of diesel facilities/buildings/etc and that, too, saved my sorry ass from a lot of mistakes !!! keep up the good work, OR, my friend !!!
OR 12... ok.... being an engineer i had to learn the hard way about building/facility placement as i wasted way too much time having second thoughts about this stuff. i finally realized that i wasted too much time and not enough " pre-thinking" about what should go where, so i plan at least one and maybe two times on paper. do you have a video that shows your track plan ? i take it you are in western canada... i am in western ny state about 35 miles directly south of buffalo, ny. tons of cp and cn here, which i really like. keep up the good work OR 12 !!! blessings to you !!!
Working on my own yard / maintenance facility right now. A little inspiration always helps! Thanks 😅
Nice work! Thanks for posting!
Great video! That CP ex D&H 7307 was on what was once my local line. I couldn’t help but notice.
Great video cool share as well looking forward to more content here👍🏻🚂
Thanks!

Thanks. A couple new engines actually haha
The box stuff with the bag of wet mud works better than the tub stuff ! It's called Machine mud.
What tub stuff are you referring to?
@@ontariorail1251 your spackle
That looks amazing!! Engine terminals are always fun to model!
Nice job on the engine facility…PikeStuff kits can be a pain
Great job! Looks really good. Nice loco collection too.

Thanks a lot! I’ll keep in mind those tips!
Great layout update! I think you should do more of these build update videos.
Thanks. Moving along I think i will

I don’t really have a track plan and sort of went with my imagination of combining several scenes around the cn and cp system in Canada.
hello ontario rail 12 its is randy and i like your is cool ontariorail12 thanks friends randy and mr . canadian 2036
are most of your locomotives from scaletrains or intermountain?
Mine are all over the place. I’ve got a few Intermountain, a scaletrains and a lot of athearn rtr
Where did you get your figures
I got a pack of 5 figures from George’s trains a while ago for $20 and I found a whole bunch of the rest at a train show for $2
Yo why you hoarding all the locos :D lol jk we all guilty of that :D
Hi do you have any Athearn Genesis Dash 9's? If so, how do you like them?
Nope don’t have any. I have kato custom kits for the dash 9’s
