The for the video Mike, love the concept and idea!!😎🚂🚃🚃🚃🇬🇧

Blooming trains never behave do they Mike! I can watch my trains I leave them for a few minutes to go make a cuppa,go back to the room and all hell has broken loose 😂

a friend of mine had a similar concept, with the portable roof, he created a small scenic section within it, one point, two pieces of track and some minor scenic details of embankment. The sides were connected by bolts, this allowed the ends to come off and this created fiddle yard. Okay, it wasn't designed to go on a motorcycle, but it worked

Thank you for explaining the track components needed to build an inglenook shunting layout. Your video has helped a novice greatly on what to purchase, enabling the resurrection of my ancient Hornby train set..

Looking great Mike cheers from your kiwi mate Bruce

I'm back now been awhile what's been happening with you guys swicthing layout looks great cheers from your kiwi friend Bruce

Nice, simple and straightforward, fair dues lad.

That’s certainly a nice little layout!! I like the little Jinty locomotive. And it will be interesting to see what else you use on this project.

The roofing felt looks great. In previous videos I've seen you paint up the track which blends it together quite nicely.

Some personal thoughts here : -Anytime I see one of your layout, I can't get out of my head the idea that your best concept for model railways is the use of roofing felt for ballast. Superbly convincing, costs pennies, no more complicating to use than paper or cardboard ; -The Inglenook is, to industrial layout, what the Minories is to city terminal stations : simple, with great possibilities, and even prototypical in some ways. Thanks to refresh the concept ! -Personal opinion : Peco Setrack is, for me, after extensive study of the question, the best track for modellers due to reasonable costs and ease of use, plus great availability, new and second hand. Sole drawback I find is the lack of more realistic points (I mean : longer) for mainline and stations. It can be addressed by using Streamline points but it is not, for me, a good workaround. Remains Hornby express points, not a good solution too for me. Hope that Peco will address this someday, plus a three-way point and a double slip would be nide to have in Setrack form.

If you hinge the lid suitably, you could actually put some track on it to store spare rolling stock at shows. Obviously not connected like a fiddle yard, but would give you space for storage. Alternatively, you could even use it as a shelf for a cassette fiddle yard! It’s a shame you don’t get Marklin C-track adapters to use with Peco/Hornby, as it’s meant to make such cassettes really easy due to the connectors… Marklin of Sweden did a very neat display case/cassette system, using little more than a few 2x1 timbers with c-track glued on!

Nice and simple. You excel at this...

You should make kits and sell them on the site u sell ur 3d prints on

Hello, I've been building an N gauge circular layout and am considering adding an inglenook shunting section for variety. What would you recommend as the ideal number of wagons?

Hi Mike, Enjoyed your latest video on the 00 Inglenook shunting layout. I was a bit puzzled by the extended section to the left of the 80 x 20cm section. Is that allowed for the Inglenook shunting purists?

Weird-ish question, but any tips for better smoother running? I blame my rubbish Hornby controller but my layour seems to have pretty poor continuity... Any ideas? Controller suggestions? Thanks :)

Hi my friend Just a quick question in regards to something you mentioned in this video In regards to using roofing film as ballast Would you please be able to give me a link to the stuff you use As im in Australia an i haveing a hard time finding something that looks like you use Look forward to hearing from you Thanks gavin from Australia

Its a 00 😅
