Scenery Expert

This Telerail DVD is a superb in-depth guide to helping you achieve the very best bespoke weathering job possible. Although most models are supplied 'ex works' from the box it's easy to forget that railways are a naturally dirty environment. They operate within urban, industrial and rural areas, running through all weathers and, down the years, have carried all manner of materials. Although factory-applied weathering has been offered on a number of ready-to-run models in recent years and, while this offers the customer more choice, the effect can often look one-dimensional.They are, after all, merely sprayed with a misting of brown and black paint as they pass along the production line. With the expert help of George Dent a variety of different techniques are demonstrated in this DVD. English spoken. Credits: Telerail (UK)

Garden railway

At some time or other most railway modellers have contemplated owning and operating their own garden railway but up until now have dismissed the idea as either being too complicated or expensive. But with the help of this DVD you'll discover that it is possible to enjoy building and operating your very own garden railway. For many of us space at home indoors is strictly at a premium - but no matter what size your garden is there's certain to be room for your own garden railway.
This superb programme expertly takes you through every step of construction from marking out the layout through all aspects of building and track construction.
With Paul Barnard's expert help we'll show you the way to avoid all the pitfalls and produce your own weatherproof track bed, viaducts, water features, embankments and stations.
This brand new programme which is expertly scripted by Model Rail editor Chris Leigh also highlights the potential problems of safely dealing with electricity and wiring a garden layout.
Plus there's lots of inspirational examples from established garden railways in all the most popular gauges including Trevor Jones well established 'OO' layout featuring his unique rubbercrete trackbed system. English spoken Credits: Telerail (UK)
