The train running montage was immense…the music, the details about the trains…it was really, really good!

Loved the "gameshow" style train introductions. "What's your name and where do you come from" comes to mind!

Loved the montage

Loved, loved, loved the "silly little montage"!

Your attention to every detail is appreciated and certainly the biggest point you ever make. I enjoy every video you produce. Thank you

What an absolute delight to see any of your vids, your attention to details that we know are there because we saw you create them, but at a brief glimpse you would never know were there are staggering. This is the era i worked for BR and you are just about perfect in all details. There are times when its hard to believe what we are watching are the modelling perfection you have attained and not the real thing. I particularly enjoyed the vids where you laid out the oh so familiar misplaced troughing with the odd lid out of place or broken lids and the one where you went to such lengths as placing all that junk that we all know collects in canals. Mind you as an ex-driver and professional audience, i think all your vids are great and i sometimes binge re-watch them all. Terriffic stuff.

Thanks for the update. The railway is looking great!

Absolutely incredible 👏 🙌. Amazing. Keep up the fantastic work.

Absolute work of art. Your fine weathering details are second to none.

Really impressive, informative and very enjoyable experience! Please keep them coming.

Not only are you a great modeller, but your sense of theatre and showmanship conveyed in these videos is impressive. Your "silly little montage" was very enjoyable, all it needed was a commentary by Matt Berry! Love the step by step and clear explanations of your modelling, but also these snippets of theatre too. You should check out Mikkel's Farthing Layouts if you don't already know his blogs.

As others have already said, the montage of the running trains was absolutely awesome. Another fantastic video full of amazing detail 👍

That montage was fantastic! Thanks for the update. Always enjoy your videos!

Love the way you introduced your trains. It was like you were calling out actors for their curtain call credits. 👏👏👏👏

I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed the narrated running montage. Superb!

Absolutely superb and the visuals of the running trains is 1st. class, as is the general atmosphere of the period. Excellent stuff!

Just done something similar on my layout , now everything running a whole lot better and reliable, very rewarding , well done sir.

Extremely well done video! The information was helpful, the montage was great fun and the running shots were as usual, lovely to watch. Thanks Richard, nicely done!

Ok….. your running session absolutely inspired me.. the detail that you gave about the trains and the photography was world class and deserves to be in the most elite model magazines. Thank you and please add more like it. After all we are all in this hobby for our love of trains…. And we sometimes forget that we do all this hard technical work for the primary purpose of……. Running trains. Thank you for reminding me and for the really great experience.

I said to myself that there's no point in sitting through half an hour of fiddle yard improvements, and here you are, proving me wrong. Thanks.

another helping of sheer indulgence and many thanks for it

A very great update Richard!!! Many thanks for sharing! Cheers Onno!

Wow! That was some work. Looking great. 👍

Bravo again to Everard Junction. The fiddleyard looks amazing while adding more versatility. Also, love watching your trains run. Makes me feel like I’m there.

Layout, weathering and trains all looking great

Really look forward to your updates. Thanks from Northern California.

Reminds me of school holidays in the 90's spent on the platform at Reading station taking photos with my 110 camera.

Love it! The montage is fantastic. Great music and commentary. Top job!

Love the way you introduced your trains. It was like you were calling out actors for their curtain call credits

That montage caught me totally off-guard and made my week. Brilliant stuff.

hahahaha, I loved the montage, it was like a time machine back to the 80s!

Layout looks really good. Well done.

I think you did very well to survive so long with those set-track curved points, but there’s no going back now! Fantastic running session, too.

Always a pleasure to watch.

Brilliant video really liked seeing all the locos moving the freight 🙂

Greetings from Whidbey Island, Washington State, USA. Another outstanding video. Please consider producing a video showing and explaining your control panel. Thanks.

Good job. Loved watching the stock at the end

Personally, I really liked the little montage! It's nice to get an introduction to some of the main members of your fleet and the kind of work they do. Speaking of the fleet, what's happening with the gronk? Will it still have a purpose at Everard Junction without the carriage sidings in the redesign?

Great update Layout looks great. ATB TO YOU.

That’s quite a lotta stock you have there Mr Everade 👍

Nice to see that fiddle yard full, great loco and rolling stock collection 😀

I could not help but laugh throughout the mid-video montage, with the 1980's industrial film background music and narration being so on-point. You have a very impressive stable of trains, beautifully weathered. Cheers from Wisconsin!

Greetings from a continental modeller. I do not strive to reach your level of skill, but I really enjoy your updates!

A great video Richard. Your fiddle yard is very impressive. I also loved your “silly montage”. Nothing silly about it at all. Wonderful running session to end with. I’m quite a bit behind with watching videos but will catch up with you eventually. Thanks for sharing. Roy.

If you were to extend the head shunts following the curves at each end. You could use them to accommodate the longer freight trains when in storage. Pulling forward in to one then backing up to clear the forward point again.

Loved the montage and the back stories

defo a how to video thanks richard for your amazing work

Nice job, Richard; really well thought out. Have to say that @20:29 shows that the effort you put in to extending that background scenery was well worth it!! Loved the montage. Thanks.

An impressive fiddle yard and the amount of rolling stock it can handle. Fyi - at 21:24 - you might be heading for a disaster at your block of flats! Wee bit of structural failure occuring!

I've followed you for a while now Richard even though I don't have an interest in railways, model or otherwise. But I have to say you do it better. Your attention to detail is second to none. On a separate topic. Love your ford Granada Coupe. My dad had one, only his was a Ghia, in I think 1977.

That class 50046 moving so slowly is incredible. Great work.

Decent video there Richard, some great work done and good to see some trains running round the layout.

really very nice, indeed, sir. Great job!

This looks amazing WOW!!!..great video thanks for posting!!

super as always thanks for a smashing video well crafted cheers

Great vlog,loved the commentary 👍

Richard, your hard work shows and was certainly worthwhile. I was expecting to hear a little "Fluff Freeman" in the run down. All right :-) Great content as always.

Fantastic. It looks real.

A much nicer fit with a lot smoother traffic flow. Great Job as always. Thanks for sharing ... "Happy Rails". GMan

Good stuff Richard. Looks like the fiddle yard is working a lot better for you. I have to say that montage was on point! very authentic. - Nicholas.

Loved the montage 👍

What an amazing layout!

Great update. The extra lines in the fiddle yard will allow for greater running session. As well as fleet holding with the extra dead end lines too. Stay safe

amazing work and commentary

A great video, I like that you detailed the reasoning behind the mods to your fiddle yard. The "Montage" was brilliant, I used to watch the Westerns heading through Twyford heading for Reading when I was young, ( and living in the UK)

Fiddle yard looks good Rich. A few more loops added as well which is always handy!

Great update well done.

The montage was outstanding 👍

Awesome showcase. Thank you.

That is a seriously impressive layout.

Thanks for sharing 👍

The "Silly Little Montage" was probably my favourite part!

Another great video Richard. impressed as always. I have a few issues myself that I need to iron out as do all us modellers Loved the running session 👌 you have a great selection of locos and stock 😀

The montage bit reminded me of those British crime capers like Snatch & Lock Stock. I'm amazed you find the time to do these great videos, let alone work on the best layout I've ever seen and restore a Granada.

Fantastic video, as a Reading lad, it's an amazingly realistic model. (The sight of a Western rounding a curve, almost, nothing better) I'm not a modeller but hopefully, constructive 'input', your smooth curves and track are perfect, but slightly jerky loco's in some shots are (I would respectfully suggest) your next/ongoing targets. Anyway, brilliant channel, all the best. Love from Reading Lad.

Love the fashion show!

great running session

Nice models, perfect video! Thumbs Up

Rail Fashion Show! 10:57 - cue the music and first on the model runway is... *humor* ty for posting and highlighting!

Looks Amazing

I really enjoyed the Montage at the end! Kind of reminded me of some of the old school "Video Magazines" from back in the Day! Was it "Railscene" plus really do enjoy this era in railway history British Rail was escaping Corporate Blue and entering into a Colourful New Era! Also love the Swapping Bodyshells idea too things like that did happen on the Railways reuse of certain items mostly things like Traction Motors and Engines were obviously swapped between class members! Anyway love your work sir and long may it continue

Excellent.

Slightly reminiscent of Dio at the start! Love the intros you do. Fantastic content too 🙂

Great vid 👌

The miss loco introductions section was a great watch, very 80's. Kept away from the set track Peco curve points since my early layouts, bad news really. Great update Richard ATB Graham 👍🚂

Amazing, what with sound and all, its hard to not believe you are not there casually leaning on a gate watching it all unfold before you, except, you must stick down and make good the joins in the clouds, its the only give away that its not full size and i worked in that BR environment for over 20 years, fantastic stuff. All we need now is EVERARD JUNCTION, THE MOVIE!!

Great update 😎👍

at first I thought the montage segment was just dross production until I realised it was a tongue in cheek thing - then I loved it. Keep the videos coming - love your channel

Thanks again for a beautifully shot piece throughout and especially the montage (reminded me of the "master of ceremonies" introducing the beauty queens). Ha-ha ; - )

Love your vids and the narration is pleasing to listen to. One quibble...in the railways we have curves, not corners.

The montage story was great, brought the layout to life, thanks. Are you thinking about extending the head shunts (flex track) to gain a bit more additional storage. Thanks Rich, fantastic episode, fiddle yards are sometimes a second thought moment, but are usually more important than we think. The body changes are possibly an episode in itself. Best regards

Very enjoyable!👍. Regards Stephen.

great job...again.....well done....love your filming....and great fiddleyard.......so what's next....😀

superb as usual Richard. Love the two tone grey 47. The fiddle yard looks very impressive indeed. I know one thing, living in them block of flats would be handy if your into ye trains. judging by the excellent montage, I think its fair to say that Everard Station, would be a hot spot for Train Spotters. So it might be worthwhile thinking about having a few vegging on your platforms, when you do get to that station build. Thank you for sharing Richard.

Wonderful, I want one🤩

👍👍👍Great video

I thought that "Silly Little Montage" was really awesome! You should totally do more of them!

The montage was a great way of showing your stock Richard 😁

Hi v interesting film. learned alot. 3 way points made me think.

Really good episode Richard, loved the montage. "Already running 20 minutes late......." lmao
