Building An HO Layout Table – Episode 1

In this first video we go over building the tables for our train layout to be built on. We used the plans from a Lionel video on how to build a 4×8 HO train bench. We built two of these tables and added a small section between them to make one large area.

Next, we build a basic HO layout on our table.

On this episode of the Model Train Novice we setup our very first model train table.

We have had track laying on this table before but now its time to get it situated for the layout we are looking to run for a long time.

In this video, we clear off our current O and HO scale tracks – Lay some grass, put down our Bachmann e-z track, add in some trees and more to complete our novice layout!

    This was great, thanks, I been tryin to find out about "plywood model railway baseboards" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across – Piyaliyah Uncommunicative Preference – (do a google search ) ? It is a great one of a kind guide for discovering how to build a model train railroad easily minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got amazing success with it.
