Once again transported to the Yorkshire dales to steam paradise. The sights and sounds of rural life & steam galore. Stunning. Thanks Lewis.

Another fantastic video and great to watch -love the driver leaning out of the window

Utopia. Comfy chair, cup of latte, and a Raspberry 5 star video. What could be nicer? Cheers, Bob

It doesn't get better than this, I can even smell the chimney smoke.The driver of the black five leaning out of the cab window was just how it was.

🚂🚂 Happy weekend!! 😍😍

How ever so delightful!! Thank you always. Be well and cheers from 🇪🇸

Despite them only being ex-LMS locomotives, I sat down, relaxed, forgot about Covid and my dwindling bank balance and just watched the trains go by...Glorious!

3:05 OMG he’s even synchronised the coach wheel clack sounds to the joint in the rails! 👍 I must say the scenics and lighting are outstanding. Perfect choice of colours! The layout is a photorealistic 3D artwork masterpiece. 😃

fantastic I can just remember the days of steam

Hi Lewis. superb as usual. And as always, a joy to watch. Cheers Chris.

Superb video as always, so therapeutic, really enjoyed!! Thanks for sharing as always! The sounds, woof! I love the algae on the viaduct. Superb!

Very cool Mouldy!! MODEL RAILROADER MAGAZINE needs to fly over to England and do an article on your layout so more of us in America can see what outstanding work you guys and gals over there are doing!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Loved the video again. I will still forgive the empty passenger trains lol.

Always a joy to watch one of your videos. Lovely sound effects. That freight train was in some rush!

Excellent, I love your railway.

Aweome Lewis as normal!!! Thanks for sharring! Cheers Onno.

Thank you Lewis.....Bob

As always, it is wonderful to lose myself for a short time just watching the trains go by on this tremendous railway. This is even more poignant, whilst I lay here in bed seriously under the weather, but can day dream and be somewhere else in my mind! Thankfully I haven’t got COVID. Thank you so much for putting these great videos on KZfaq for the rest of us, you are a star!

Loveley. Every Time I watch your Videos, I feel so british😉

wonderful

Just amazing.Greetings from the Netherlands

Hi Lewis, another great video. No matter how many videos your post I always manage to spot something on your layout that I have missed in previous viewings. It always a pleasure to watch your videos because everything looks so natural and real, almost like watching trains in real life. Cheers Greg

Another great job. Your channel inspired me to create my own

What a busy day in the life of the Yorkshire dales, the people going about their business, goods being moved, listening to the clickity clack of the wheels and that puffing and exhaust steam as the trains leave and arrive at their destination. I find it very relaxing and if you close your eyes for just a few seconds then your transported in time!! I needed that today thanks Lewis. Stay safe Eddy xx

Marvellous as always

Love it when you combine the two layouts this way! Also lovely clean Black Five and 5MT. Mucky Fairburn, but love it's lines. And OH to see the countryside looking so green and lush again. Beautiful thanks Lewis - Teresa@FLR

This is fantastic the sounds ,the details just brilliant.the whole thing is just mesmerising , from the people on the platform the animals in the fields ,sound effects , everything.

I agree with Conrail Fan down below. Model Railroader Magazine could do much worse than featuring an article on Yorkshire Dales! (Am also a Conrail fan!) Lewis, you must be able to contort your body to impossible shapes to get some of your camera angles. You film from perspectives we haven't seen in previous vids, and keep things fresh each time. Thanks for a bright and whimsical ending to what has been a rather bleak day! Steve

Yet another excellent video.

Greetings from Colorado.

Another great video, very inspiring!

Made my day!

Wspaniała przyroda, zwierzęta pasące się na łące, pracujący ludzie i pociągi pełne podróżnych. Ożywiony ruch osobowy i pociągi pasażerskie obsługiwane przez lokomotywy parowe. Coś pięknego. Do tego efektowny i dynamiczny przebieg towara obsługiwanego również przez lokomotywę parową, i ten wspaniały, rozchodzący się po całej okolicy sygnał Rp1. podawany gwizdawką przez maszynistę. SUPER! 👍 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 🚂🚃🚃🚃. (h).

Awesome video. Thanks for sharing.

I think you should do a SR/GWR section, just to display your incredible scenic skills - would be interesting to see

Now that you offered us the two making of/behind the scene videos and revealed the secrets behind the two layouts story, the end result is all the more amazing! 👍👍👍

Sitting here with the outside temperature at 13 F (-11C) in Michigan. Should go out and split some wood. Don't want to. As always, I very much enjoyed being removed to a warm day watching your trains run through beautiful English countryside. I am amazed at the way you have made all the elements fit together so seamlessly that it feels like being there.

Great session spread over the two layouts. Mouldy Magic once more.

All i can say is Mr Mouldy, I hope you washed your hands before you had your tea after cleaning down that black 5. Good video, John

I model OO gauge modern image but absolutely love watching your videos

Fully fitted in that era is not often depicted by model railway people - well done! Great job as usual!

Those older red wagons came through Buckdale a year ago , I just saw the video 😊

Very nice. Looking very verdant, and with sheep as well! Thanks for sharing. Alan.

Oh my, those two passenger trains are just fantastic, but the 4MT and its coaches just steal the show for me. Obviously, they are all classics and classy, but something about those liveries and that 4MT are just perfectly done.

Ahh Lewis the standard never drops, superb running session.

good vid on the layout keep up the good vid thanks lee

Never getting bored of your videos Lewis. Super stuff!

Another brilliant video The first trains sound is really well edited. I will have to look that loco up and see if I have any photos in books of it working in my area. I see it was based at Low Moor so I could of seen in in real during its last days.

Another great video Lewis and I do like the Paraffin/Oil look of the black 5 boiler. Incidentally 42073 was allocated to 56C Leeds Copley Hill in the 60's and finally Bradford Low moor 56F. Happily this locomotive has been saved and is now at The Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway .

Was just thinking of your vids today and here you have popped up, thoroughly enjoyed it thank you.

Beautiful scenery mate, awesome work and detail. Enjoyed the video.

Hi Lewis, big thanks for your always outstanding steam and model building movies! ...Have a great 2022 and stay safe and sound my dear friend...Kindly regards from the german alps out of my little tinkering workshop and THUMBS UP...Cheers, Olli

it just improves like a fine wine .........love to hear the Robins song in there too , the sort of sound you would notice in real life .Great job Lewis .

Bonjour Lewis, Interesting trains and ever so realistic with the sound synchronization. Very well done as always ! Much appreciated. Thanks ! Cheers, Filip

Hey hey hey it’s Mouldy Thursday Deeeeeelight. Hello Lewis Firstly Happy New Year to you and yours from me and mine. Great running session and camera angles on both layouts as ever. Stay safe, keep sharing and model on. Regards Lee@NEAR

Hello. Klasse video 🛤️🚝🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌👍👍👍👍👍Thanks Fim 🚂👮‍♂️✋

Absolutely fantastic!

Happy New Year and another great video. Listening on my Sennheiser headphones - what a difference between recorded sound of locos and the tinny sound provided by a sound chip! Real steam engines were LOUD! - even from a considerable difference.

As usual another stunning visit to the Sales ! It's just so relaxing to sit and watch the trains run through the Countryside. Just wish you would fix the run around points at Misselthwaite so they work correctly together 😁.

Spot on the kind of traffic I want to simulate ! Nice choice of engines : the semi-local with the Black five and the four mk1s is a good combination : on a hilly terrain, with a permanent way strong enough to withstand the weight of such an engine, you have an extra of pulling power on gradients, important for a train that should have a top speed high enough to stick to the timetable of what can be a 5-6 stops run on a 150 to 200 km journey from end to end. On the other hand, the 4MT with the suburban coaches might have 8 to 12 stops on a 50km journey, the top speed is not the main important factor, you need a good acceleration and, as I have seen on this engine, practicality in form of a built-in reversibility : you have windows on the rear of the cab that are practical for a run in reverse, even if the engine is not symetrical, unlike the german BR 78 which had been built with this idea from the draft table (BR 78 : 4-6-4 wheelset, Fairburn : 2-6-4). By the way, I wonder what is the difference of range between a tank engine and a tender engine. We have here roughly three engines around the same power range, obviously with different missions in mind, The tank engine is clearly short-ranged but what is the range ratio, compared to a Black 5 ? You clearly have to trade the practicality of a tank engine against the range of a tender engine... Anyway, another great video from my favorite trainspotting point on KZfaq. Keep the good job done Mouldy, see you next week ! And happy new year 2022 oin the tracks !

Another great video, however at the beginning the Black 5 with the crimson & cream coachrs not the same rake as on your other layout, the first shots BCK & BSK, on the other layout 2 x BSK lol

The little shepherd’s hut at 3:20 … is that scratchbuilt? I’m looking for something similar for my layout!

Nice one, Lewis. Most enjoyable, as ever. Which track did the freight pull onto at Misselthwaite?
