MTH RailKing Layout..Update #3..Additons to Main St. & Track Level Runby

Hi Train Buds! Just a quick update on things I have added to Main St. followed by a track level runby. Sorry about how "RAW" the backside looks. I have been focusing all of my efforts on Main St. and still have more plans for it. I also need to wire in all of the buildings once I get them all in place.

As far as the rest of the layout goes, I have not done much at all. I placed some buildings and vehicles in the Farm scene area and that is about it. After Main St. I will move onto the Farm and after that I would like to start on the tunnel. I am going to set the portals in place so it will be ready to be worked on when I get to it.

Thank you for watching! God Bless, Merry Christmas, & Happy Holidays to all of you!

@bravosixxx would this work with HO scale also?

[bravosixxx]

@CSXManG21 The one thing that would be too big for HO would be the 1/8" car pinstriping. I think they make 1/16" pinstriping which would be perfect for HO.

@CSXManG21 I would think so since it is just road. The cork I have on there right now is from my HO layout before I switched back to O Scale I just left it in place and made the Town scene with it. It was going to be my yard with the HO. I like the cork because it gives more of a road like appearance instead of plywood or foam board. I forget the name of the brand the cork is but I am sure your LHS will know. It is 5mm thick, 5 inches wide, and 36" long. I hope this helps.

@CSXManG21 Hello, thanks for watcing and for the nice comment! The base for the road is 5mm cork 5"x 36" pieces laid in for the length of the scene which is 25'. I used wood glue to secure the cork and a light weight spackle to fill the seams after the glue dried. After that I primed the cork 3 times and then put 3 coats of flat black acrylic craft paint all rolled with a foam roller. To finish it off I used 1/8" automotive pinstriping for the shoulder, parking spots, & double yellow lines.

@subwayfx Thank you very much Frank! I always appreciate your input. It means a lot. I used my GoPro helmet cam for my quad to shoot the track level shot. This scene has sucked up the vehicles and people that is for sure..lol I finally got my last 2 buildings so that part is done. Great to hear from you! God Bless!
