Thank you.

It was a good show, I managed to miss the gauge 3 A4 which was a shame.

@@mytinplaterailway The one that got away...never mind. BTW, how many mm/ft is Gauge 3?

@@crewelocoman5b161 No idea! But very impressive. The Coronation thundered round the cubes, a sense of the real thing.

@@mytinplaterailway 👍

Thank you Paul, if I hadn't spoken with you I doubt I'd have put this up ... so thanks :)

A lot of people just buy them as ready to run. Yes very difficult to build.

Thank you!

Thank you. I do hope the P2 happens. I have seen prototypes in black, but I know Len Mills - the real driving force behind Ace - isn't well.

That you Philippe. It's 'Maldon Track', which I slightly regret using as it has to be screwed down - unlike old Hornby three rail which you can easily take up and rearrange.

@@mytinplaterailway thank you. Personnally I use Lionel modern track with plastic bed, which I bought in England as it is not imported in France. I also have an oval of JEP track with black plastic sleepers, which is an excellent track made in the '70s. But expensive nowadays on the second hand market. In my collection I have a few ACE and Basset Lowke ( reissued by Corgi) which are excellent quality models.

Sadly mine is now dismantled as I need the room. I'll likely see the Maldon Track and just get some Hornby track at some point. I very much enjoy your films.@@philippedanjou5390

Yes! I would say 150 + mph.

@@mytinplaterailway The Atco lawn mowers of the same period were the same. You have to run to keep up with them !

Ha! @@missiontent111

Yes!

Well ... the strange thing is there were about twenty Swiss people, and all but four - as illustrated by their loco's - had British ones. Spam cans, an LMS 'turbomotive', various BR steamers, etc. I only filmed the Swiss/German ones for the novelty. Our Loco's are very popular abroad, partly because of the colours. Theirs are all black it seems. My favourite was the last one I filmed, towing a continental coal train. Thanks - as ever - for watching and commenting.

Not sure when it will happen again, maybe for the 80th?

Hi, I'm In Sydney, just picked up a nmint o gauge clockwork set from England, last few week, and a another set , but later in age and size, still clockwork o gauge, but after 1954, they made 4 smaller sets, Green or red train with smaller key , basic detail And filled in windows , not like earlier models, but it sure fits around the track no issues 🤷🏻‍♂️😉

Hello, have a look at our club website - go to useful links and there are various businesses on there. Good luck!

Even better 'live'. if you go to our site - angliaG1.com - there is a link to the gauge 1 people who have an events page. Might be something on in your area?

@@mytinplaterailway Many thanks. Yes, I must get round to seeing more of this. Hate to say, but the link didn't work...🤔!

@@crewelocoman5b161 Oh. here it is pasted in: www.angliag1.com bottom right 'wheel logo'

Yes, film doesn't really do it justice.

Hello, I just looked to see if you have any films. I slightly regret the Maldon track, simply because it has to be fixed down, so no fun chasing it about. The old Hornby track is just for 'parking'. Thank you for getting in touch.

@@mytinplaterailway I don’t post on KZfaq merely watch, to many people willing to be unpleasant, I have the one circuit of Maldon because I can run some locos that I own that won’t run on tubular track. I enjoy your videos as they help inspire me as my layout develops

@@momatmach1 Off to the Beckenham show on Saturday - hope to put up a film of that. Thanks again.

Thank you. To be honest I don't have much competition! I wish there were more old school tinplate films on KZfaq. I hope your Mogul runs well.

Thank you for commenting. Yes those, along with the tinplate in my opinion, are the most impressive.

Thank you. Yes they were. These are small scale compared with many of the trains - and ships - they built. Thank you for watching.

Yes!

Thank you Graham.

Hello, you are always very kind. Looking forward to seeing your latest film later this evening. I am a bit of a novice with the classic O gauge - and even more so the gauge 1. Many of these models are very rare, the O gauge BL Castle that's included is one of only two made. The music is free to use form the KZfaq music library and should come up on the info bit - might not have been picked up by KZfaq yet. It's by Joel Cummins, 'Sonatina No2 in F Major Allegro'. I think it's intended to sound like a famous composer. At these public events I think it's essential to add some music simply to hide peoples conversations. Largely for their privacy. Thank you again. Surprising how few people film these old tinplate events. And yes, I have stopped watching ( or listening to ) the news - I haven't turned the TV on since last July ...

@@mytinplaterailway You're welcome. Thanks for the update on the models and the music. I knew it wasn't Mozart so I guessed at Haydn/Clementi but I had the nagging thought there was a modernish feel to it. 👍.

@@mytinplaterailway Just a small correction, if I may. The 'Sonatina no 2 in F Major' is by Beethoven - the pianist is Joel Cummins. I remember playing this as a young boy in the very early 1960s, and hearing it again just now brought back several memories!! All good wishes, Peter A

@@wurlitzer895 Cheers.

Thank you. The loco at 3.14 isn't mine, but I do know it was built form a kit - which is quite a lot of work and takes quite some skill.

Yes, I think it is.

One of the advantages of being a small country ....

@@mytinplaterailway I'm assuming that's in the UK .....correct?

@@dancalmpeaceful3903 Yes. This event about 100 miles form me.

And you!
