BNSF Chicago Sub in N Scale
Welcome the BNSF Chicago Sub in N Scale YouTube channel, documenting the process of building a new N Scale layout! Follow along as I build a new model railroad, from the intial research, to the track planning, building and finally the operating!
Be sure to subscribe to see my latest updates as I progress with the new model railroad. Be sure to follow my page on Facebook to see the latest photos and updates on the layout.

I really need to post some new videos soon! In the meantime, I’m thinking of doing a YouTube Live to get everyone up-to-date with my progress!
Thoughts as to best day to do this? (I’m thinking tomorrow, Sunday) Bearing in mind I live in the UK, so most likely late afternoon, early evening GMT (after 12pm EST, 11pm CST, 10am PST).
I’ll start the live stream, and then it’ll be available to view afterwards as well. My main aim is to get an update out there ASAP, then I can start posting regular updates once I have caught up.

Happy New Year!
2024 was a slow year for my layout build, but this year I’m being more focused and am putting aside time to progress the build. I have already added more bench work and will be sharing this and future plans in an upcoming video.
The second, long-delayed(!), part of my mural project video will be out soon as well.

New video coming out at 8pm ET (11pm BST, GMT+!) on 20th May. Rather than trying to catch up with lots of videos showing my scenery progress, I have done a short video showing you the current scenery progress. From now on I will try do more regular short videos as I progress with the build of my layout. Enjoy!

It’s been a quiet few months on the modelling front, but I’m starting to do more. I need to get another video out soon, but just a quick update on what I’m doing. Continuing work on the scenic area around the underpass under the Western Avenue yard. I’m scratchbuilding the warehouse that is there. I’ve decided to show the interior from the aisle, so have added clear Perspex. I have no idea what is inside this building (it’s currently empty), so will use my imagination

Spent the weekend finishing the underpass that goes under Western Avenue yard, video on that coming soon. But coming before that is a video on how I add signals to my CATS CTC panel. Just finishing off the edit on that, so will be uploading it soon!

Thank goodness for wireless control of my Canon EOS R camera via my phone - taking overhead photos to plan the scenery. Using a wheeled storage cart as a dolly
