I love those buffer stop lights

Looking really good mate ...will look quality when it's finished

Looking good Tris. Small point but loco refueling hoses usually have a trigger nozzle on the end and never just lie on the ground. An awning over the fuel point is common, stops water getting in the fuel tank during refueling in the rain.

very cool cheers for the great ideas

Charlie at Chadwick has a video in which he discusses the very same buffer lights in terms of one or two lights according to period, and gives valuable and essential information as to how to cut the top light off, as it matters where you make the cut. Enjoying the series as always.

Excellent weathering technique .. working on getting similar great results. Job well done on your layout :)

Enjoyed the latest edition Tris - I love the bite-sized length of each one - lots to absorb, but not too much each time

Great video, Tris!!? I hope it all works out for you.

The little fuel pump came out great!

Been watching you for God knows how long. Love the content!! Always a pleasure!!

Another great video. As a newbie, the step by step approach and sharing your thought process is really helpful. It’s all new to me!

About the space in the front I have two things that'd make it interesting and realistic. First place a small Wills square water tower (disused of course) or even an old GWR watercrane with reservoir. This would be well weathered and feature as a relic from the past. The other one would be a grounded coach used as a yard office. They have such a coach and even a grounded goods van that can be used as a tool shed... the van would be nice to sit on the rear near the triple turnout as a makeshift shelter for the shunting crew or as a platelayer hut. But really this is getting better every new video and it inspiré me ideas to make such a small layout, but in N gauge, giving me more room to develop a goods yard with a small terminal station, just to get back to modeling after nearly 3 years without (due to a back injury induced partial legs paralysis).

Very nice Tris. The buffer lights make the buffers look that bit more realistic. - Nicholas.

That's shaping up to be a classic diarama Tris, well done mate.😊

An inspired fuelling point it is incredible what you can make from the spare parts bin. If you ever need to reduce the diameter of a piece of sprue you can warm it over a candle and stretch it to size this is also great for rigging wires on plastic aircraft kits, it just takes a bit of practice.

Hi Tris, nice video looks great. Best regards, Mark vickery

I've been following the progress of this layout and have been interested to see what you were going to do with the fuelling station. It looks really good and I love the use of the machine gun as a pump, excellent. Amazing what can be done with bits of sprue and spare parts. I have added a Kibri brand fuel station to my layout and you may have helped me solve the problem of the fuel hose and how to make it look more realistic. 😊

Really enjoying this series, Tris, I've been adding all the videos to a playlist to keep me inspired for my own shunting layout build. It's interesting ro see some of the novel approaches you've employed. Nice work, keep it up 👍

Really enjoying this build thank you. My question is around the pump house, would a building have a fire this close to a fuel depot? Hoping you or your watchers can clarify. Cheers Stu

I'm not an expert on railways at all, but I know a little about tanker trucks... So i'm not sure if this would apply to rail, but I would imagine the area of track used for fuel delivery and dispensing would also be bunded on hardstand and would also cover the area around the pumps and hose connection points. The bund walls are usually very short, usually no taller than a speed hump. They're quite common and you mightn't even noticed every time you drive into a petrol station as the whole perimeter is almost always bunded. I'm not exactly sure how they would achieve this with rail, but maybe they use sloping grades and a sump or common drain system?

Great video again Tris. Looking good

cool vid nice layout you build thanks lee

this is looking great, I used the knightwing kit and modified it to my needs. I'm curious to where you get your figures, they look awesome

Coming along nicely. Please help my OCD by adding a few sleepers in the gaps.

Defo to hard standing in the refuelling area right across the track from the fuelling point to other side. It’s a safety issue in real life. Also plenty of diesel spills about.

Enjoying watching you build this layout. Just wondering, would it be considered high risk to have an engine shed so close to fuel storage? I know it’s only diesel, but …

Nice use of bits box for the pump. How are you going to fill the diesel tanks?
