When you go from owning a model train set that you run on the kitchen table to construction a model railway in your basement you will probably be implicated about the cost.
Some passionate model railroaders have spent thousands of dollars on construction their model railroads.

But, you don't need to spend that much on construction your model train layout. Your model railroading can cost as petite or as much as you want.
Here are 4 great tips you can use when construction your model railroad:
1) To create tall mountains use the pink styrofoam used for insulation in homes. It's uncostly and can surely be sculpted with a knife. You must use the pink rigid styrofoam and not the white extruded beadboard.
2) To create small trees look for flowers and shrubs with small leaves. These can be sprayed with a diluted glue and then dip them into green foliage. The foliage is ready at a hobby store and comes in bags. Check out craft stores and look for sprigs of fake pine and display trees.
3) Use kitty litter for ballast. Make sure it is the type that doesn't clump together. This is so much cheaper than buying a huge amount of ballast from the hobby shop.
4) If you want to model a chain-link fence on your model railroad, use screen wire like they use in safety doors or windows. Cut it at a 45 degree angle and use piano wire cut to distance for the fence posts.
I have so many other tips and tricks to share with you. They are ready in my model train newsletter.
Part of the fun in model trains is creating something from nothing. Buying a kit from a hobby shop is easy but there is nothing better than telling citizen how you created the trees from twigs or the fence from old screen wire. Model railroading is a great hobby.
