Hi Mike What a brilliant running session. Love the old steamers, trouble is I can remember them in real life, god I'm old. Your layout is absolutely fantastic. Lot of work and time gone into it. Thank you really enjoyed the running session. Thumbs up thumped 👍 .... Pete....
@miketurton2705Ай бұрын
Thank you! You and me both! Although, my excuse is I can remember many things from the age of a 1 year old such as Western Region steam at Plymouth and the Kent Coast! I suppose the layout is the culmination of a lifetime of railway modelling steam as it's only in the last 4 years my model focus has gone back to my spotting days at Exeter with western region hydraulics and the BR blue-grey period. Mike.

Just prior to Beeching there was a Leeds to Weymouth using class 40/55 this too would have stopped at Yeovil Central had it existed. Still it’s an early diesel to add. And chances are Pen mill was its stop anyway.
@miketurton2705Ай бұрын
That's very interesting and very unusual for those classes of diesel to be seen this far south, I'll keep that in mind as I don't currently posses a class 40 or 55. Mike.

Yes it's me that subbed lol. what a great video, love the 33s used to drive them a long time ago. Where does the sound for the 22s come from?
@miketurton27053 ай бұрын
The class 33 has to be up there as one of the best although I did resent them at first after they replaced my "warships" from the Exeter-Waterloo! Sound for the 22's is DB class 218 being MAN engines, simular to those used in the 22's.

I love it as it looks grotty and realistic. I am returning to OO gauge after over a 30 year absence and find your layout somewhat of an inspiration. Our eras pretty much align too, I wish to model something in Wales between 1975 (TOPS) to 1990 (pre privatisation). I am blessed with an attic above my garage of some 8.6m x 5.4m with restricted headroom in some parts with frame work already made pre COVID. I remember travelling around Cardiff as a kid and the train at least for me was anything but pleasant. The old DMUs were dirty, smoky and drafty. We could not really afford to travel far by train and trips to Bristol Zoo etc were on National Express buses. The only two times I got to travel on the then new HSTs were on one of the British Rail Tours, Mystery Tours or Specials. I think they were only diagrammed to work weekdays then and were pretty much spare on the weekends. So I got to travel to both York and London (for the Ideal Home Exhibition). Though after saying all this I still love the BR blue period and your layout just brings all the memories flooding back to me. So thanks for sharing your layout with us all.

Lovely layout and great attention to detail. I’ve recently discovered your channel and enjoy your running sessions. Your layout gives me a lot of inspiration to achieve something similar. I’m planning a layout based on a fictional line and station somewhere on the Weston region from mid 70´s to early 80´s - just to convert the garage before getting started ! Looking forward to more videos from you.

Thank you and all the best on your venture, I found basing the layout on something that actually exsisted (Yeovil Town) and then adding the 'what if' factor gave me something to model which was my era of the Western Hrdraulics and 'Cromptons".

Do you mind if I ask if this channel and the old Yeovil Central channel on here are done by the same person.......as I remember the original channel stopped creating content and only posting on Facebook a while back.............If it's still the same person it's great to see you back.
