04.01.09 How I built the river on the SoCal Desert Rail Division train layout by Al Mayo

[315Gibson]

Nice, where did you find your people?

[donsgotmoney]

All I want to do is fish out of that river, it so damn clear I can just jump in a kill the fish with my bare hands.  j/k. Looks great. Soon mine will be up. Ill keep looking at yours, and my drool will make a river.....

[partytor11]

wher can i buy dose things?????

[The1snarky]

great craftmanship really cool

[Marauder0090]

now that is a beautiful layout. slice of life realism in every scene.

very nice!

[mastererik323]

great video man! I'm building my 3rd ho scale layout later this week.(well technically my second because the 1st one i made was a prototype).

[pyronathanpyro]

neat layout take it this is a ho scale dcc layout also were ya get all ya people from there amaizing

[halfmumi]

Sorry but couldnt catch the stuff that you used, what are they?? Enviorotex lite high gloss finish and? Cheers

[MonsterRailroad]

Just Enviortex Lite. That is all the water is made from. Dry clear and hard

[Muckypuck2]

where did you get the fc3s rx7  that has has the guy changing his rims on

[MonsterRailroad]

I got the car which I think is a NIssan 240sx not RS7 from a set of cars that goes back to 1990's. as for the rims and the guy that was custom modeled. I bought a Ford mustag with shiny rims at Walmart (Hotwheels 1/87 scale) and cut off the rims for this scene. Then I had a figure I painted to be a coll looking black dude leaning against his car probably talking about his new rims.

[nardp96]

so do u buy the stuff online or can u order it in thourugh ur hobby shop? i want to try some with my o gauge layout but i havent been able to find it at the place i go to.

[Patrickisreallygreat]

These are some good tips! I'm only 16, but I just got started with model railroading! I use the beginner Bachmann stuff but I have a very nice Athearn F7. It's a start. I can't wait to build my own layout!

[frisco4422]

niiicccee

[cmf1965]

Keepin'-It-Real...Thanks!

[BoeingNerd]

[Chicagojoe28]

[MonsterRailroad]

LOl thanks a lot dawg.

[nolsknows1]

hell of a good job with your scenery

[CSILCPD]

your layout is realy great, brilliant

i love it 5/5 stars

[bloo6969]

how many bags of tallus ??? fine or medium coarse

bril layout :)

[bloo6969]

how many bottles did u use for that

[MonsterRailroad]

One bottle, Well two bottles mixed together since it is a two part resin. The cost was about $24 for the two 16oz bottles

[flamingpouchkangaroo]

I love watching these videos of your layout. Super cool

[sillywesties]

Al aka Monster RR you have a great eye for detail! Each scene has a story to tell. Keep up the great work! Hope things work out for you dude.

[trainamtrakcsx]

WOW THIS IS EVERSEEN (NO KIDDING) JUST AMAZING WOW AWESOME do u hav any tips im making alayout soon and its my first one so im gonna need some help

[trainamtrakcsx]

imeant to say best layout ive everseen wooops lol

[swanman1975]

Layout looks nice! I have looked at almost all of your videos. do what makes you happy and works best for you. Keep it real!!! sitting back and waiting for your next video to be posted.

[MonsterRailroad]

Thanks dawg! i have been so busy and faced some personal issues over the past two weeks that is why the videos have not arrived in a few weeks. Its been difficult to focus on trains when I have personal issues to aattend to, You know what I mean buddy? I will be back at it soon though, thanks again

[swanman1975]

Ya gotta take care of the important things first! Totaly understand! working on a new layout hope to be able to post some of my stuff but still new member to here. trying to figure things out. still editing. Out.

[LivengoodTodd]

All Majic Water works well too. I was wondering if you ever tried it. Thanks.

[MonsterRailroad]

Magig water is OK but not as good as enviortex lite. Hands down the winner! All expert model railroaders will swear by it, Magic water Shrinks when it dries and gets cloudy in time. I have used it with unsatisfied results.

[rfrr]

man your layout makes mine look like crap....well it is.....lol but i will be redoing in here in a few months

[trainamtrakcsx]

nice work and wher did u get the uhaul truck

[cp6027]

Looks like you are getting too much voltage to the car headlights. Seems like you have some burned out on every video lol. If they are 1.5v bulbs, you might try knocking that down to 1.3v with resistors.

[ohiosouthern]

nice job, u got a amazing town, be cool if u did Jack London Square with the street running section

[guitar446]

i use the woodland water kit and it left booble in with in about 3 weeks ago what sould i do montser

[MonsterRailroad]

Drill a small hole into the bubble and then refill the bubble with more woodland Scenics realistic water. Simple. Also a way to get out the smaller bubbles used a hair dryer and get to blowing that shit!

[Guilford88panam]

hey man that looks real good. and btw i have a big question. someone just commented on my page saying that you owned me or said something about me and said all this bullshit and im like wtf are you talking about? so do you have any idea what hes saying? and i dont remeber being mean to you i was sticking up for you when the racist guy was saying shit. so im just real confused. his youutube thing is like mitch2454 or somthing

[MonsterRailroad]

No I do not know why he said that or what it was about. I rarely read peoples pages and stuff

[Guilford88panam]

ha k thanks man just making sure

[schul4]

Hey man, I just made my river 1 week ago with that same exact stuff, it worked great!

[usmusclecars]

OK, never mind - I'm OK now

[usmusclecars]

FLASH BACKS

[nardp96]

never mind its right side up again.

[nardp96]

[1234567890bf2]

[nardp96]

thanks

[ba2cool]

Hey my brother nice job i am just getting started you have taught me alot.

Peace

[iusetano]

Excellent work. Thanks for sharing.

[upac4400cw]

how long do u wait to but the boats in? i dont wanna put them in and then they sink in while it dries

[RyanSamuelBarry]

looks good boss...but i didnt hear a price on that resin. I used the woodland scenics water and that shit shrinks up so much you have to do it in layers..this looks like a better way to do it. turned out great.

[Zebinator]

Agreed!! I noticed the same thing with my river!

[bigJvids]

Al,

Do you live in Norwich connecticut or New Britain Connecticut

I want you to weather me some engines please.

[kanishirosouthwester]

sweet lookin river water and good how to vid. love it

[theinflator]

The detail work is great, wish I was close by to run my trains on it!
