Thank you. I have no idea why people would watch this and then click dislike.... keep up the good work, thank you guys

I have watched thousands of model railway work in progress videos from 100s of KZfaqrs and I have to say your grass work is probably the best I have ever seen. I am sick of people using static grass that is too long and looks way out of scale when you bring any figure or vehicle into a scene and also over using it so it looks like the Australian bush. You nailed it!

When the camera zooms in it looks real life! It doesn't get any better than that.

What a very enjoyable video - thank you. Really looking forward to more of these in 2020.

Love this format, do continue in the new year and Merry Christmas to you all.

Brilliant video. Nice to see the layout and test tracks in full. Looking forward to seeing more in the future updates :)

Hi Mike and Richard Great video, I'm a massive fan of Toppley Dale, it's been a favourite of mine since it's inception. I could watch locos running around it all day. Cheers Paul 👍

I really have enjoyed the development of Topley Dale, very inspiring!

Excellent. Very enjoyable. Thanks for posting and Merry Christmas.

Wow, that looks great, cant wait to see what's going to happen with the 'O' gauge, well done guy's. Loving the new format 😁

I really enjoyed that, honestly wasn’t aware of the channel until today but definitely worth the watch. I look forward to more. Paul

Awesome lads. Can’t wait for more in this series.

Another fantastic video, it's good to see behind the scenes and how it's done,

Always great to provide regular monthly layout updates!

Great layout love it.

Wow Superb scenery and detail too Beautiful layout 👍

Excellent update and looking forward to seeing more in 2020 …..

great update. Was good to see the 2 layouts in more detail. Looking forward to your videos in 2020

Clear concise and informative ! Nuff said . Excellent. Thanks

Nice layout and enjoyable video. I'm looking forward to future updates.

A Well done 👍 layout from across the pond. 🇺🇸

incredible video loved all the steamers and that A4 is incredible cant wait to see how the update series progresses and of course to the team at hornby Merry Christmas

Mike you are don. I am now going to watch the next.

Sehr schöne Anlage! Respekt! 👍

Great video, really enjoyed it!

I think Richard was pretty much the deffinition of 'kid in a sweet shop' throughout the video, that right there is one very happy bloke!

Good stuff. I'd like to see more detailed product reviews (five to ten minutes each) being included within this format. All the best for 2020.

Absolutely, positively loving the two layouts guys. I’m very interested in the progress of the O gauge layout especially. We have a few British O gauge modellers here in Australia as part of the BRMA (British Railway Modellers of Australia) of which I’ve been a member for nearly six years with various sized layouts from whole purpose built rooms in houses and sheds to exhibition layouts too! I hope to be among the O gauge community at some point in the future with a GWR layout. I’m already established in OO Scale modelling but I’m working towards my Welsh narrow gauge line in G scale in my backyard. Anyhoo, great video and hoped you’ve had a great Christmas and have prosperous new year in the new decade of 2020. Cheers Caleb

Looks brilliant!! :-)

P E R F E K T .Schöne Anlage,wie Lebensecht...

Great layout!!

nice layout greets from germany

fantastic grass work

Hi guys a great video mate the 00 layout is looking great Clive

Hornby, the best in model railway... 😍😍😍😍😍

Happy Christmas from a new subscriber .

bloody good stuff mate i do love me a nice br green a4 and the steam effect is just perfection and good job on the ,layout looks great- charles

Nice vidéo 👍

+Hornby Magazine Awesome layout

Hi great STUFF what track and point/turnout motors are being used on the layout? GREATLY APPRECIATED

hello Hornby great layout whats the radius on Topley dale in the station curve thanks

Excellent video guys and I really enjoyed it. May I ask which model A4 that is? I'm after one in that late BR livery. Keep up the great work. :)

Top Job 👍👍👍

Very nice enjoing, thx!

Great video where can we get the steam generator

Yep! Do like the format. As an 00 & 0 gauge modeller it ticks all of my boxes. I think I read previously that the inner curves on the 0 gauge test track are 2nd radius Peco "Set track". Do you find any trouble with buffer locking or have you taken precautions over the couplings used?

What smoke unit is in the A4?

Which smoke unit is that in the A4

Hi, I have a Marklin set with several locomotives, cars, lines etc. It is a big set. I'm thinking to build a small layout in my apartment and for space restrictions just a swich yard lay out. The problem is that I received two american style engines which I like more than the Marklin set which I will give to my grandchilds. One of the engines is Bachman and the other is Athearn. I have not the power supply nor the control device. Questions: 1) Can I operate both engines with the same P.S? 2) Which is the DC voltage for these engines? Thanks for your patience and kind regards. Jose Rybertt

Can we have the N gauge layout in a future episode please?

Thank you. (Would love a N layout)

Whats the A4 number and name on the point of the passenger train?

It is true what they say - O gauge has a genuine presence.

Is HO the same as OO

do you have a track plan for this layout but for oo gauge

Blooper Alert! 8:53 faux pas! D1006 is Western Stalwart not D1036 which I think Mike said - so hopefully that is not the number he read off the cabside! Great video otherwise guys! Oh, and a very Merry Christmas to Richard and yourself - keep up the good work!

A pity you didn’t run the black 5, I would have liked to have heard the sound effects. I enjoyed the video, however, is there any chance of you doing/videoing some working micro layouts in the future ? Thanks, Mel.

Wow, a really awesome layout. Do you guys have a track plan for your 00 gauge layout?

The steam crane could do with a remote control so the piston can move and so the crane jub and chain can move

Was that an old HO scale Playcraft (Jouef) NBL Class 21 leading the EE type 3 (Class 37) coal train in a double header??!!

Enjoyed the video, thanks! What radius curves do you have on the o gauge test track & have you found anything from the rtr range that won't get around them yet?

shame about all the audio pops cracks and glitches in the video.

Nice bag of grass

Looks like gauge 1 since there’s smoke coming out of the A4.

Why do the coaches make that ' real train going by /away noise ' ? Thanks.

That was very good - thanks. One thing, it would be nice to have a camera fixed on the storage yard after you hide it. Everyone likes to see the storage yard ....

This has the prospect of a good series, please consider new audio equipment though! This was painful on the ears in places

what was behind the decision to build the layout at such a great height? usually waist height is the norm but this looks to require operators to stand in order to see the layout.

In Big Four layouts we hardly ever see Southern Railway, more Southern please. Happy new year.

What is the layout behind Richard and Mike. Thank you

Bit of a shock to see New Junvtion

Great video. I wanna get into doing this but the trains and tracks are so expensive to buy even the used ones are expensive

where did you get those awesome o gauge trains? i love that steam engine you showed in that little clip the most.

What do Hornby make in O gauge.. #confused

Goes without saying that the A4 looks Amazing! Please could you publish a “set-up” procedure from wiring, (colours etc) through to the CVs and parameters to make smoke like that? I have written to HORNBY to suggest they design the chassis of their products to leave space to site a smoke unit. They’ve taken the content of my letter seriously as it’s been passed on to the design team. Best wishes. Happy Christmas to all. Robert

I like how they dont just plug hornby stuff and instead show what they actually use. Even if it's not a hornby product.

I like the American locos the steam ones but the European electric engines are too cool

Very good but make sure you switch your mobile phones off before recording !

Not impressed with the camera M. To far Away not enough of the layout close up
