Not only do your trains run reliably, you can also have realistic operation! Dropping off and picking up freight cars is a lot more fun than just watching trains go round in circles chasing their tales!

6:06 A cow farts. Now that's what I call attention to detail ! :D

That is just beautiful. I just want grab my walking boots and dogs and go walking across the Yorkshire Dales

FANTASTIC What detail on your layout - magnificent. The wonderful locos and weathered coaches. Thank you so much for showing your videos. These have been a delight to watch and escape into during lockdown. Thank you again.

Normally I find running sessions dull but on this layout it’s so beautiful, like watching archive footage

Hi Every time I watch your blogs they are so good in every way, it just goes to show you don’t have to talk to make a good blog on KZfaq, the sounds that you add, the birds tweeting, dogs barking, the coaches or wagons clanging together really brings your blogs to live in every way! It’s like watching a real life like railway! Your layout must be huge, or certainly gives that impression. Have a great Holiday and New Year with Family and Friends. I look forward to seeing more blogs in 2020 Huge 👍 Thumbs Up 👍

Absolutely superb! I loved the article on your layout in Hornby Mag, and was extremely impressed by your modelling skills. But seeing this video brings a whole new dimension. Thank you so much for sharing your work.

Hi Lewis, Merry Christmas. If the realism of your layout were not enough then you've added perfectly weathered rolling stock and tied it all together with authentic sounds, including cow farts, yes I heard it. There are many things that various modelers do that make their layouts good but you present the whole package. All the best, David.

Awesome. Realistic. Nice POV. Excellent video. Great sounds. Thank for sharing.

Hello again Lewis. Superb video as always. There are quite a few good layouts on KZfaq, but not many get the balance of realism and atmosphere right to generate a truly nostalgic feel that brings back the memories of when I was younger. I hope that Hornby magazine give you and your layout the justice that's well deserved. Hope you have a happy Christmas and a happy new year. Chris.

Great video Lewis I liked the. Way you filmed the different angles makes all the filming look great.🚂🚂🚂👌

A real treat thanks for sharing, may Santa bring you some interesting locomotives or rolling stock !

Very nice layout, great work. Puzzle by the black toad though!

The attention to sheer detail is simply astounding! And, I'm sure I saw that little dog move at 3.08! Just brilliant and an inspiration to all.

Your beautiful railway and a farting cow. Lol. Now I feel much better. Love the film as ever. Please keep it up. Merry Christmas

Very nice scenery and overall Modeling but one thing would have made it awesome, a big lash up of Conrail engines pulling a long coal train!! Keep up the excellent work there across the pond!!!!😁😁😁

Not enough people are mentioning the sound!! I’ve only ever heard such authentic sounds in person up till now! How did you ever manage to put together such an incredible score? Truly excellent, keep up the great work!

Thanks for the video ! Another one packed with action, and great actresses. My favorite is the Pacific, but the other ones are excellent too ! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !

A superb running session with a great sound track far better than just hearing electric motors whizzing around by a long shot. If only DCC sound was that good.

Your videos have inspired me to clear out the loft and start building. If my layout turns out half as good as yours I'll be a happy man indeed. Have a very merry Christmas.

Another cracking video, looking forward to 2020. have a great one. Glynn

Delightful.

Just great Lewis sooo relaxing iv'e still a lot to do on mine cant wait to get it operational .

Terrific 👍👍👍

Ha ha ha 😂 I love the cow fart ! I hope all passengers and presents made it for Christmas Merry Christmas to you 🌹❤⚘

From running sessions to weathering to tree making, each and everyone of your videos have been a real treat throughout the year mate. Thank you and Merry Christmas. Rich.

Fantastic layout keep the videos coming. and a Merry Christmas

Another fantastic video. Have a great Christmas.

Again another fantastic video with a lot of time and effort gone into it 👏👏 ...... I think you need to do a “Bloopers” edition 😂 All the best for 2020 🍾

Superb again! Very atmospheric and nostalgic...........Happy Christmas and all the best for 2020

Absolutely fantastic - such detail. Enjoyed every minute!

Merry Christmas and a good and healthy 2020 for you and your family! Cheers Onno.

Beautiful Compositions! Merry Christmas!

I hope Santa was good to you bringing lots of gifts Had to get up early to watch this after problems getting on line yesterday Grrr. It has been worth it Loved the Britania coming to a stand and close up at the bridge looked so close like it would in real standing there. Enjoy your New Year Also Hope you saw the steam to Mallaig on Quest Reminded me of hols up there and had great sound with no commentary

Always look forward to seeing one of you’re video’s and you never disappoint with any aspect of modelling. Thank you for sharing with us all. Have a great Christmas and happy new year, where we will hopefully see more wonderful running shots and modelling techniques... cheers, Chris

As someone who has spent more time than I'd like around livestock, I really appreciated the cow farting.

Great running session as always. Have a great Christmas ...

Good to see so many looking in on your railway....

Merry Christmas to you & all the Raspberry family! Hope you have a happy new year & I look forward to seeing many more videos next year!

Wonderful layout, wonderful photography, merry Christmas to you and a happy New Year. I look forward to your next updates.

Great sound effects and realistic layout. Happy Christmas.

Superb! Absolutely superb, your best yet. Thought I was getting pestered by flies at one point! Many thanks for your channel and Happy Christmas!

Another awesome video. Big fan of that coal train! Thanks for a great year of modelling, running and how to videos. You have produced some great content over the year and it’s great being part of it. Have a great and safe Christmas and best wishes for 2020. Clint

Amazing scenery (what skill) depicting a time gone by. Pure nostalgia! Wonderful! Not to mention the trains . . . .!

Another great video...it was a pleasure watching the trains go by on this Christmas morning...😀 Merry Christmas to you all...🎅🎄

Another great running session. Thanks. Wishing you a merry Christmas & a prosperous & healthy 2020. 🥂👍👍😎

Merry Xmas and all the best for 2020. I'm sure your lovely layout will continue to go from strength to strength.

What a christmas present!!! Thanks for sharing mate. Close to 16 minutes perfect steam fun!

Great running video, love the sounds and the fine details you have put into the layout. Merry Christmas to you and your family. Hope you have a safe and Happy New Year. Thanks for sharing. Ken

Amazing work again! Happy Christmas.

Great job on your layout, I really like the lyr class 5 in a weathered condition.

Merry Christmas Mouldy Raspberry, thanks for another wonderful video. I just love some of the detail you have on the layout, every time I see a video I find new things I missed last time. I especially love how you overlayed the railway audio, it fits very well. Thanks again and look forward to many more new videos next year. Best regards, Dave.

Sitting here by the Christmas tree watching your trains go by👍 Some lovely shots that encourage me carry on with my own layout. Thanks for sharing.

Well thats the best Xmas present I will get, so I watched it twice. As someone said it does seem a lot like watching archive films of the real thing, brilliant filming, fabulous setting, and just as real as the past was and that is an acheivement, thank you for sharing so much with us all. My best wishes to you and yours for Xmas and the forthcoming New Year. Steve.

Yet another super video Merry Christmas and all the best for the new year Cheers Keith

Brilliant and excellent sounds added

Excellent video as always. Thanks for all your great videos during 2019 and I will look forward to many more in 2020. Merry Christmas Lewis. Cheers Greg

Brilliant detail, love it please do some more.

I haven’t commented often but your vids are an absolute delight to watch mate !

Great video as always, Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas Lewis!

Amazing layout, wonderful camera work and beautiful sound effects. A great credit. Well done. Happy Christmas

Eine wunderbare Anlage und auch die dazugehörigen Geräusche. Da macht das zusehen richtig Spaß.

Well Mr Raspberry, how you channel and railway have grown in 2019. I'm sure it is a year you will never forget!! Surely 5,000 subscribers is imminent...well done sir!! Have a very good festive season. Cheers, Bob

Stunning job as always Lewis. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for these fantastic videos over the past year or so, they are a real credit to your modelling skills! I hope you have a Happy Christmas, and all the best for 2020! ...Cheers Les.

Hi Lewis Great video I love the atmosphere you bring to the videos and looking forward to lots more in 2020 . Have a great Christmas break . Cheers Kev

Nice video, looking forward to the next edition of Hornby magazine. Have a good xmas

Another great visit to a great layout. No snow on the Dales this year I see. Lol. I love the close up camera work, it is great to see the detail work that you have put into your layout. Look forward to the next one. Happy Holidays from Canada Bob

This is very nice layout :)

Lovely Christmas special of the dales. Very enjoyable to watch. Also a nice selection of stock. I did chuckle when the cow I believe farted. In fact I had to rewind a bit to confirm what I heard. Anyways merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your family Lewis. Cheers Ross. 🍻

Fantastic as ever happy Christmas pete

Every time I watch one of your vids, I am amazed at the level of detail and visual interest of your layout. Also: I hope you have a happy Christmas and and wish you a great 2020

Very well done.

amazing video love the detail and working of the trains and of course a very merry Christmas mate

Superb !!

Yay a Christmas treat. Merry Christmas m8.

love the gassy cow lol great layout

Fijne feestdagen!

AH-ha- I've been running out of superlatives to use, but now you have finally made a mistake!!! A Christmas running in the countryside with no snow?! Shameful! 🤪😁😁…. Okay, seriously, another brilliant run on one of the prettiest layouts on KZfaq. Happy Christmas! 🎅🎅🎅👍👍👍

Merry Christmas mate, I'm new to the channel but love the layout. I wish I could model like that. Have a good Christmas - Lewis

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Awww - now THAT"S my idea of Christmas! Greenery everywhere, trees in full bloom, birds singing and the MOST beautiful scenery. Beats all the grey, brown and white of winter. Have you sown some more grass at Buckdale? Looks great - fabulous close ups, oh, and was that a cow farting at 6.08? Thank you for the lovely surprise gift of this unexpected video today Lewis - just what was needed to pick me up following a hospital op last Thursday and the discomfort since. Sincere thanks for ALL your work in sharing all this with us AND for bothering to respond to all our comments. That means more than you could know. Your videos have been so inspirational to this reclaimed rail modeller. (my new diesel runs a dream!) Very best seasonal wishes - Teresa, Findhorn Light(ish) Rly.

Hello, beautiful running sessions as always. Thanks for a great year of videos. I had to pull my head in a little for that one close up shot. Silly train almost took my head off! Wonderful stuff, thanks again. I laughed out loud at the cow flatulence. I had to go back to make sure that happened. So funny. I wonder what else you have in your sound library? Merry Christmas to you and your family. Here’s to a wonderful 2020 full of Mouldy Raspberry. See ya.

MERRY CHRISTMAS! MY FRIEND AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! ENJOY YOUR VIDEO On Christmas eve

Merry Christmas, first viewer for once😅 but yeah hope you get everything you need to continue this stunning layout, cheers K.J

OK, so your videos should be compulsory viewing for people with high blood pressure, 15 minutes of pure enjoyment. So very well done Mr Raspberry. Merry Xmas Peter

Every relaxing and beautiful I love model trains I’m still in the process of building my layout 🍺

Best one I’ve seen do far

PS - just treated myself to a Bachmann Standard 4MT because of you! Furious about a wonky buffer beam but I’m fed up with sending faulty locos back so will just live with it - call it an argument with a buffer stop! Other than that it is such a beautiful runner. Next I need to attend the Online Mouldy Weathering Academy!

Wish there was a way to love the video instead of just a like. That was really nice to watch 😊

Amazing

+Mouldy Raspberry Nice Layout it looks so real :)

Brilliant workmanship and detail, even the sound in synch. The only thing I could suggest is some passengers in the carriages. And that is such a small thing.

💙👍

5000 subscribers and over 21,000 views! Well done, sir.

I like the cow farting, could nearly smell it it’s that real.

Love the man crunching the gravel underfoot at the cottage. We don’t just watch this layout running, we experience it. Was that a cow farting at 6:05 ? Or were you just blaming it on the cows ha ha. Always such a pleasure to feel the nostalgia from your wonderful layout. Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and all your loved ones.

Love the coaches @ 14:27.

Every time I watch your videos I am impressed. You should hire yourself out to build layouts for people who want to model the countryside - if you haven't done so already! Season's Best!

you must have been months collecting all those sound files used to overlay on your videos. Very nice - as always.
