Hi Ian, Really pleased it brought back those wonderful memories. It is, of course, impossible to create that atmosphere which we too experienced at Leeds and Doncaster so we attempted to describe by way of narration just how captivating it all was. Thanks very much for taking the time to watch and give such great feedback. We hope to perhaps have another take on it all, by way of a follow up video, later in the year. Best wishes.

We really appreciate your complimentary comments Nick. We attempted to do something a little different and your thoughts give us encouragement that we got someway to achieving our objective. Many thanks indeed.

Thank you for your kind comments. What a great history and great hobby we share. Glad you enjoyed our efforts. Many thanks.

Hi Steve. So pleased you enjoyed our efforts and thanks for responding. Our aim was firstly to model the 1950s and secondly to film and narrate a story in a way which capture the times and characters. We were so fortunate to be in our teens when all of this was part of everyday life. Thanks again for your interest..

Many thanks Ian for taking the time and trouble to let us have such positive feedback. We are pleased you enjoyed our efforts and wish you well in whatever aspect of railway modelling you find rewarding.

Thanks very much for your interest and super comments. Glad you enjoyed the video. Look out for the sequel in the new year. With best wishes.

Thank you very much Ken for your kind words and for taking the time and trouble to watch our video. Still working towards the Michael Portillo coloured jacket!

Many thanks for your super feedback. It gives us great satisfaction to hear that you enjoyed our efforts and obviously you have a great interest in model railways. It is a great hobby. Thank you again for watching- twice! With best wishes.

Really appreciate your kind comments Curtis. We are extremely lucky in Great Britain to have so much railway history to recount and explore. This history is reflected in the passion we have to model our own earlier experiences in whatever gauge we choose. That you share our passion is great and we thank you for taking the time and trouble to watch and comment so complimentary on our efforts. Best wishes.

Just back from holiday. Many thanks for your kind remarks. Really pleased you enjoyed our video. We did have a lot of fun/satisfaction/frustration! making it. With best wishes.

Thank you Railway world for taking the time and trouble to comment so positively about our work. We really appreciate your feedback. It was interesting and challenging finding our way around Windows Movie Maker, especially as our computer and video experience was very limited.

Thank you Bob for your feedback , really appreciated. The layout is 99% Peco code 100 track. In the early days, before live frogs, I converted the then dead frogs to live including a couple of crossovers. Good running has always been our main objective and with 47 locos of differing pedigree they all traverse all of the track with hardly a hiccup. That has however taken 40 years to achieve!! best wishes for the festivities.

Thank you 380130 for taking the time and trouble to watch and rate our video. We are glad you enjoyed it. Incidentally this was our first attempt at making a video. It turned out to be as great a challenge as anything we had attempted railway wise. Hope you also enjoyed our website.

Good to hear you enjoyed our video. Many thanks for watching and taking the time to give us such great feedback. Really appreciated. Best wishes.

Many thanks Tony for your feedback which is really appreciated. Pleased that you enjoyed the video. Virtually all the stock has been converted to Jackson wheels over the years, that includes the Hornby Dublo coaches and locos, some of which we converted from three rail. Best wishes.

Thank you Michael for your kind comments. Yes-Our biggest challenge was to get ALL the stock to navigate code 100 Peco track. All our 47 locos and the rest of the stock do that flawlessly. Jackson and Romford wheels convertions on our early stock, being the secret.with one or two surprising exceptions ie early Hornby tenders with wide flanges did not need converting.

Appreciate your interest in our video Ian. I cannot come up with a one word response, but your description so obviously sums up your feelings for our efforts. We are delighted you enjoyed it to that degree. Thank you very much for your feedback.

Really pleased it gave you so much pleasure and thanks indeed for taking the time to give us such great feedback.

Thank you Roy for your kind comments. Glad you liked our video and hope it has helped you to achieve your aspiration. Best wishes.

Thanks for your wonderful comment Harry. Glad you enjoyed our efforts. Best wishes.

Many thanks Philip for your kind remarks. Glad you enjoyed our efforts. We are persuaded to do a follow up, hopefully for release next month, January 2018. We are working on it! Best wishes.

I will very much look forward to your follow up.

Thank you Philip for your kind comments. Really pleased you enjoyed the video. Such has been the pace of change and complexity in producing youtube videos that we are unable to add to our present three video posts.

Many thanks indeed for commenting so positively. We are really pleased you enjoyed our efforts. With best wishes.

Hi William. Thank you very much for your kind comments. To share such comments spurs us all on to achieve even better results. Hope it contributed to your own aspirations.

Your kind comments are really appreciated C & F. There is no way we could afford to start this railway with today's prices. The majority of the cost was incurred some 30/40 years ago. The layout was then stored for some 25 years and subsequently resurrected some 10 years ago and finished in 2010. However the video is the result of the purchase of a £230 camera in 2016 and a few hundred hours of our time, which cost us nothing, in finding out how to do it!! Best wishes and many thanks again.

Many thanks Britain's Railway's. Pleased you enjoyed our efforts and thank you for subscribing. We have pleasure in reciprocating. We really appreciate you taking the time and trouble to watch and comment so positively. With best wishes.

Thank you Steve for your kind remarks, really appreciated. Yes you are quite right the layout appeared in the May 2010 and again in June 2012 Railway Modeller with two major features. We also recently decided on a website. You might like to have a look- www.hornbycentral.co.uk Again thank you for your interest. Kindest regards.

Than you Patrick for taking the time and trouble to watch and then give such encouraging feedback for our video. We are pleased you were able to rate it so highly as this was our first attempt with the camera and subsequently through Windows Movie Maker to mix the narration which, as you commented, was indeed fully scripted with a few trials first. Again thank you. Best wishes.

Thank you Greg for taking the time and trouble to watch and rate our video. Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, you did recognise some Horby Dublo shorty mk1s and pullmans. For us they still represent the pinnacle of early model railway 'off the peg' production. Incidentally this was our first foray into video making. It was as great a challenge as anything we had attempted railway wise.

Thanks Derek for your kind remarks. I was never a railwayman , but an avid trainspotter. Simply picked up some knowledge over all the years and spent a bit of time on research to learn more about the locos we were modelling. As you noticed we did manage one 'Brit' , on the turntable, right at the end of the video. Loved all your Brits and your layout. Best wishes.

Many thanks Thomas for your kind remarks. Glad you 'Loved it'. It is based on a village station called Hornby on the former Little North Western line twixt Morecambe and Wennington Junction in Lancashire. Our railway is however purely imaginary. It is themed on the nostalgia of the 1950s as we remember it in this part of the Country. Thank you again and best wishes..

We are really pleased you enjoyed our video. Thank you for watching. We appreciate it looks difficult but with perseverance and help you could learn how to do it. Have a look at our website at www.hornbycentral.co.uk and see if any of our descriptions of how we did it might help you. With best wishes.

Hi Guys. Really sorry but we do not have a cheap/easy answer to your question. Garages are notorious for damp, even if you think you have a dry garage the odds are that the air will be predominantly saturated a lot of the time. Not good just for card houses but for most things model railway orientated. A dehumidifier is probably the only answer , but they do not come cheap and obviously cost to run. Suggest you have a look on ebay for one if you decide to go down this route. Thank you for your interest and we wish you good luck with your modelling.

Thank you very much for watching our video Thomas. We hope your A4 is now back in steam. You obviuosly have many interests and that is great for a young person. Also our hobby needs young people to get involved. There is so much to learn about railways and they will always give you pleasure and teach you many different skills. Well done.

Thanks for looking Stephen. Have a look at our website at www.hornbycentral.co.uk for a lot more inf. about our railway. Best wishes.

Many thanks for taking such a keen interest in our railway. Unfortunately our layout is not open to public viewing. Best wishes.
