About Weather My Trains

Who are we?

Weather My Trains is co-owned by the Husband-Wife team of Rob Arsenault, CD, QDJM and the lovely Christina Bower-Arsenault. Rob is a full time professional fine artist with more than 45 years of experience producing aviation, rail art and, more recently, realistic weathering!


Rob's aviation paintings are featured in several books and Canadian museums. Five of his rail paintings were purchased by the Canadian National Railway. Those paintings were later reproduced as signed, limited edition prints for CN Corporate gifts. 


Rob was awarded the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Medal in 2013 for his efforts to document the RCAFs rich aviation history and through multiple donations of original aviation art to several Canadian Aircraft museums. 


Rob has been weathering trains and construction equipment part-time since since 2013 and full-time since 2016. Rob has weathered thousands of models in different scales for customers around the globe! 


Weather My Trains is fully licensed business and a Federally licensed Importer/Exporter of goods and services so you may shop with confidence! 


Weather My Trains is a proud part of the dealer networks for these fine companies (alphabetically):  Bowser Manufacturing, ESU LLC (DCC/Sound), Evan Designs (LEDs and electronics),  Intermountain Railway Company, MAC Rail LLC (3D printed parts/PTC antennae), Rapido Trains Inc and ScaleTrains

What can we offer?

Rob works very hard make today's premium priced fine scale models even BETTER through judicious application of realistic weathering techniques using professional, colour fast materials and prototypical ESU sound with LED upgrades (although weathering is the 'core' business). There are no shortcuts to quality! Weathering colors are custom professional Fine Art acrylic mixes that are modified and blended specifically to make your models look their absolute BEST using Rob's decades of fine art/colour mixing experience.  Worldwide service/shipping is always available. References are available on request. 

Yes, heavy weathering jobs are a specialty!

Why deal with Weather My Trains?

 Rob has more than 45 years of experience as a Fine Artist. 


Rob's original marine art, "Remembering Nick," features the Marine Atlantic Motor Vessel John Hamilton Gray in loving memory of our dear friend - the late, GREAT, Nick Pineo. Nick was a dear Family Friend. He served as the Chief Electrician aboard this vessel for decades. 


Rob's primary painting subject has been Canadian Cold War era military aircraft. See below for a few samples. 


Why is this relevant? Because...Rob's Fine Art and colour mixing knowledge is leveraged on EVERY single weathering subject. Your model will receive custom weathering colours mixed to suit YOUR requirements. 


The main goal is to weather your equipment SO realistically for the period that you model that it will INSTANTLY COMMAND your attention and HOLD IT for years to come!
