Finishing a Kit for a Small Layout - Building "The Grunge" Ep. 14

Often, especially on shelf layouts, we focus only on industries, but even in a miniature world people need a place to live. In the last episode we started building apartments for our model residents, and in this episode we finish building the kit. We also do some weathering, including some model railroad weathering techniques. Sometimes a kit fits your space and need perfectly, and that's what happened here. Join me as I go about building the Walthers Parkview Terrace kit straight from the box, just as designed. Well, except for changing the color and adding lots of Lego® bracing. If you've ever wanted to get into model trains, or build a small switching layout but didn't know where to start, this series is for you, because it's all about how to build a small layout! There's a lot to think about when building a train layout, especially in a tight space, and we'll cover everything you need to know on how to build a small layout. This is the fourteenth episode in the series on building a small HO scale layout.
