Wow! Just when you’ve seen it all Wickford brings more surprises! Love the oil refinery and docklands. Great video, thanks for sharing.

Well shiver me timbers ....what a fitting way for Charlie to retire out from. Always impressive video, and a giggle at the end - brilliant! Regards Steve

hello Paul and all my n gauge friends well another fabulous outing from you and the class 59s do look very splendid pair and with your fabulous rolling stock makes for a great show did enjoy the yellow wagons with there loads looking splendid 👌👌as always have a great weekend and see you Sunday for a continental clip from yours truly 😁as always my friend up the junction cheers al 🚋🚋😁😁🐾🐾🦡🦡🐰🐰🦔🦔🐺🐺🐾🐾

I really like the way you link the two layouts with Wickport. Wickport seems to be getting busier and busier with all those 59s . I must confess reading the comments below gave almost as much enjoyment as the video. Stephen

Very cool video, I enjoyed watching and am always fascinated by your layout, 👍🏻

Another great video Paul, love the impressive container cargo ship!👍👍⚓⚓🚢🚢

Another enjoyable video, Paul. I've just watched it with my grandson. He says, "Are they really BP fuel storage tanks, or are they Dylington Custard Company's custard storage tanks in disguise for security reasons?" Great video... Cheers, James and Grandson 🙂👍

Good morning Wickport, and hello Paul! It's been such a long time since we saw Wickport that I'd almost forgotten it existed!!! Was great to see the container ship again, and the oil terminal looks to be doing some good business! Whenever I see these private sector liveries I always think the aim was to hide the loco amongst the rolling stock - not a bad idea with the 59, as it's not the prettiest of locos, is it? Lol! All the best, Ian.

Hi Paul, well, Wickport looks the hive of activity and it’s good to see it again. I’m really looking forward to seeing it develop. Loved the little Hunslett’s doing their work and so much lovely rolling stock. I even quite like the class 59’s for modern loco’s! Bit of a late show from me this week, bit all over the place as sadly my dad passed away a few days ago. I’ll be taking a break after my video on Friday but will still be watching, cheers for now, John

Guess the sailors aren’t as tough as they used to be! Rachel’s nails on the quay side lol.

G'day Paul, Wickport is developing into one mighty good-looking scene 👍👍👀👍👍. I thought like others that somehow your 2 layouts were somehow connected together, but I saw your comment debunking this! All the best from oztralia

Good morning Paul ☘️ now that is what I call efficient engineering, linking both layouts into one Wickford and the Continental Shelf, are they linked or does the camera lie?. I am always impressed or is it envy when I see “proper” sized trains and not the truncated ones that I have to run. Passenger max is around one loco with five/six coaches, on a layout without any inclines. Absolutely love the Hammond Organ reminiscent of Donal Fagen and Nightfly with a touch of Billy Preston and Jimmy Smith thrown in, well that settles it, I shall have a god dose of Hammond Organ Jazz and Soul maybe just maybe a bit of Booker T as well. Take care and look after yourself. 🌺🌺🥃

Nice video 🚂🎥👍👍👍🖖

Hello Paul, an amazing amount of stock.

oil tanks! and Space Cat recognized that kit :) your layout is a dream from which we begrudgingly awake! We tip first our hats, then our glasses, to Sir Charlie Chadwick, esteemed champion of our beloved hobby, explorer of new techniques and technologies, sage and guide through the winds and fires of railroading, and seeming from his videos to be a very sweet and sincere fellow...we salute! Greetings my friend, from the thawing wastelands :)

Hallo, Thank you for another beautiful video of yours! 👍💯 Greetings Seven🖖

and here's me looking for the 2nd appearance hahaha .. found it at 00:10 :)

Morning Uncle Fester, it's 59's again with a rare viewing of Wickport. So now you have had a play which of the two makes of 59 do you prefer and why ? We are all waiting with baited breath ! As for the Bishop of Somersex, we already have one and I don't believe Bash The Bishop is intending or expecting to be moving soon. Charlie Chadwick has retired to a little house in Piddle in the Marsh, next door to Willie Wash and Tess Tickles. All the best from Somersex and the Piddle Folk 😂

Morning Paul. More 59's ! You're just trying to wind up our national treasure 😅. The other two look good in the ARC and National Power liveries. I know the RT ones comes in at 103g in weight - how heavy are the Dapol ones? According to someone who has close connections with Dapol ( their biggest fan😅) they're 90g in weight - are they ? Also i see you have the Walthers oil refinery hiding in Wickport. Looks as though further Yeoman hoppers have arrived. All three locos looked at home in the snowy wastes of the Alps ! Cheers Euan
