In this brand-new Key Model World video series we go behind the scenes to reveal the construction process of Making Tracks 3 from Pete Waterman and the Railnuts leading to the 152ft long Grand Challenge layout at the 2023 Great Electric Train Show. Join us for Part One as we go on location at Milton Keynes Central station.
The four parts of this brand-new video series launch each Friday from December 22:
PART ONE: On Location - FREE on Key Model World and the Hornby Magazine KZfaq channel | December 22 2023
In the first part we visit the real Milton Keynes Central to see the railway in action and discover how the station works and the trains that pass through it.
PART TWO: Construction - FREE on Key Model World with a Freemium Member account | December 29 2023
In part two we focus on construction of the layout at the Making Tracks Workshop as Pete and the team take on the challenges of building a scale model of a real station in the present day.
PART THREE: Making Tracks on Show - exclusively available to Key Model World Premium subscribers | January 5 2024
Building the layout is one thing, making it work reliably six-days a week, eight hours a day for six-weeks at Chester Cathedral brings new challenges. We follow its installation and operation during summer 2023.
PART FOUR: The Grand Challenge - exclusively available to Key Model World Premium subscribers | January 12 2024
The Grand Challenge created one of the biggest ever portable model railways when Pete and the Railnuts assembled all three Making Tracks layouts as one for the 2023 Great Electric Train Show. Discover how it all happened in the fourth and final part of our series together with a look to the future.
