In this episode of Model Railroading with Jack Burgess, Jack talks about weathering model trains. You will learn about approaches and the kind of research that helped Jack understand what would be appropriate weathering for his models. Not only is it prototype-specific, but there are other considerations to make, which could even come down to whether something was even being used a certain way in the era or area you're modeling!
It's not a "how to" video as much as a "why to" this time around, and you'll find Jack's insights about weathering trains worthwhile!

The details are incredible!

Extraordinary.

Hard to argue with an expert. Great simple reasoning.

Jack is absolutely right here, most model railroaders over-weather their freight cars. Most railroads during the pre-war (WWII) era repainted their cars every few years, with the exception of the few wooden axle short lines that didn’t have enough traffic or income to justify it. Generally, the older a piece of equipment was, the more weathered it tended to look, especially if it was something like a Maintenance of Way car that had outlived its usefulness elsewhere. Cars in revenue service tended to look better, so you wouldn’t see big splotches of black soot covering the entire body. However, you did begin to see a trend of filthy freight cars during the postwar era, around the transition, as many railroads had to cut costs with the decline of freight traffic and the rise of competition from trucks and automobiles. Nearly all other periods before this, weathering on MOST equipment was minimal, unless it was an older, non-revenue car.

Dear mister Burgess, Thanks so very much for the wonderfull video’s of your layout and the fantastic one of the history of the RR and the logging company. Being a subscriber of RR Model Craftsman I read the story and searched google earth and our RR atlas of North America (steam powered Videos). With modern technics it is possible to travel without leaving home, not the best way but second best. I have never been in California but I know the inclines from my visits to Wales where slate was transported that way. You honour those men working hard doing their jobs without all the safety regulations from our time. I fully agree taking and watching photos make a great base for modelling. Thanks so very much.

Grew up in this hobby reading about his layout that was thirty plus years ago and Mr. Burgess is still talking about it, dedication to a prototype that is inspiration at it's finest, great video of a great modeler and man.

It's so hard to differentiate the prototype photos, and your model photos. 👍💯⭐

Great lesson from a great model railroad master. I like jack Burgess he is the best!!🏆🚂

Thanks...this was the shortest video that John and I have done and I was concerned that there might not be enough information in it to make it worthwhile... Jack

I just weathered six cars this morning. I should have waited!

@dancalmpeaceful3903 3 года назад

Impressive....the title of the video should be "Historically appropriate Weathering". You've certainly taken "weathering" to a science involving research and logic. As I said - impressive and informative. Great vid!

Wow Jack your incredibly good at weathering

@JoeG-firehousewhiskey 3 года назад

Very interesting, thank you for the video

Love your yv caboose

@789train 3 года назад

great videos mr burgess as usual. most of the dust on the locomotive drivers and tender was not from the roadbed but the sanders on the drivers which ground the sand up pretty fine.

That makes sense...the steepest grade on the YV was a mile of 1.9% and traffic on that section was generally limited to passenger trains. Jack Burgess

Thanks

i tip my cap to modelers of bygone eras... one of the drawbacks of modeling the past is the possible scarcity of photos for research... lot of times you left to just guess what was... much easier to model the later years or at least the years that rrpicturearchives has on it's website... at least you know that you'll have access to research photos

@jeffreyknoop5363 3 года назад

Probably wasn't "dust" as he mentioned. Guessing it was sand residue from the drivers

@@yvfan jack I'm a huge fan of yours. Your layout is simply amazing. But yes 1.9 is a tough pull. We have some 1.8 and 1.9 ruling grades. It doesn't take long for our wheels and trucks to start getting caked with sand residue. Jeff Knoop
