For those of us that reside in the less than "informed" category, or hail from outside the terran system. Is this a question about cigarettes? The burning of a particular group of witches? Or a story on local flood control?

 Pretty sure he's talking about the Winston-Salem Southbound project railroad on MRVP.

 The only scenery so far that I've seen is the most recent video. The title is about static grass. While other scenery is evident, the video for constructing it hasn;t been posted yet - they aren;t doing this one strictly in construction order.

Thanks for setting me straight Randy. That is one I missed.

I am often amused by how people sometimes phrase their questions on the forums as if we should all know what they are talking about.

A favourite is when they ask a question such as, "is anyone going to the train show in Gwakwani".Laugh

DSteckler,

The video I believe you are looking for is "Winston-Salem Southbound Series: Odds and Ends". However, David does not go into detailed explanations about the base scenery layer, he just summarizes the progress. For more detailed information he directs you to review other project railroads such as The Thin Branch and The Olympia.

Hope that helps

Thanks, Randy and Chris.  I'll check some of the other project railroads to see what scenery techniques they discuss.

Brent, maybe you should remember the old lesson that if you can't say something nice, don't waste my time answering.

Brent's first post posed a legitimate question and made a legitimate point - the IP provided insufficient data.

His side comment in his second post was NOT aimed at the IP, but at the frequent mention of train shows (without geographical coordinates) in other threads.

The IP might note that Brent posts a couple of times a week, not once every two years.  The comment addressed to him fails the test stated in its verbiage.

(The Old Sarge could express this much more vehemently, but chooses not to.)
