Absolutely wonderful, Bob Symes was brilliant. I loved Model World growing up in the 70s and it inspired me to get a model train in the 80s. I'm still doing it. Thanks for uploading.

In around the mid 70's I had the model world book, which accompanied the series. It had plans in the back for "wind rider" "sky rider" and "sea rider". I wish I still had that book. I'm now 54.

Saturday was pocket money day. I’d watch this in the morning then off to the model shop at lunch time to buy a Spitfire or Lancaster. Then the rest of the the day making my model. Those were the days!

@@priestland1 Yeah, I made Sky rider, the glider. I wanted to make wind rider also but never got round to it.

I’m sure it turns up on eBay. The worrying thing is I’m now older than Bob and R C Ormiston Chant Stuart hine and the rest, were when they made this. Gulp

I had that book too! I wonder if it's still in the attic at my mum's house...? The year this show was released, with the emphasis on model making, a teacher at our primary (elementary) school encouraged us all to design land yachts using balsa wood. We waited for a windy day and they all took off across the schoolyard. Most of them were light and blew over but my friend Stephen had built a big boxy devil (we all laughed at it). His dad had pressed cut pieces of drain pipe over the balsa hubs to act as tires. It went the furthest of them all!

This programme takes me back a few years to the mid 1970s when i was a member of the NLSME on whose track the live steam locomotives were filmed.I had many happy hours operating my 5" gauge Simplex on there,A lot of familiar faces there,i wonder how many of them are left?.

Such a glorious presentation! I love the layout of Horstes Keynes on the Bluebell Line. 😊@9:40 @11:25 I like the colorful Private Owner wagons on the live steam railway.

Thank you so much. I was the perfect age when these were first show, 11 years old growing up in Devon. I loved each and every one. Do you you have any more from the series, would love it if you could upload them if you do! Thank you again, brought back a flood of happy memories of me being inspired by this to build my own model railway.

Hi ianmedium, unfortunately I dont have any more. There was a re-run of the programme back in the early 90's and thats when I recorded these on good old VHS. Glad you enjoyed! Oh and I see you are one year older than me!!!!!!!! Hee Hee!!

Or indeed white metal, as I have been building quite a few 009 gauge locos with some help, and 1 I am really impressed with despite the castings and instructions etc, anyway I am still really impressed with her and she is the one and only Langley Models L&B Lyn

It's interesting to compare this with the current Hornby series on the Yesterday channel

The show on yesterday feels like an advert for hornby and this is more informative.

I remember this series from when I was younger. I was clumsy back then but I've learned a lot in the intervening years. He was a remarkable chap.

It looks like you put water in and heat it with a fire until it gets really hot.

Many thanks for posting this model train bliss.... a question.... I thought it was on one of these 3 shows where at the beginning a vocal group is singing a lot of clever train patter with marvelous harmony...whilst the camera pans over a pike of green hills and the like.... any clues, or was that a different show. Cheers from Texas.

I think the programme you're on about is 'A Lineside Look at Model Railways'. It is on youtube in three parts! Here is a link to the first part. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oM99lJSUusvcd3k.html
