Thanks for comment, so true. I spent a number of years working as a signalman. Before moving to guard and in the end driver. Railway work in its self is complicated. I'm going to photograph the stages of the rodding construction. Best Wishes

good video, signalling is complicated until it is broken down into sections. I've added this to a playlist, enjoyed the running, many thanks

This video clip is brilliant. Have you got a video of it's construction? Also a video of the fitting of the sound Controller System? Are you able to list links to the "Magic Scale Modelling", along with the costings of the components? Thanks...

Thanks John. Look forward to see your new layout at Whitstable

Very well said Bob, agree with you 100%, people like us, ex railwaymen will be super critical, because that's what our job was - safety critical, and another thing that winds me up with people operating DCC diesels, they start them up, toot the horn and off they go! They're not cars- people really don't know what the real railway is about - trains operate on air, compressors pump.ip air into the system to make everything work, minimal 70psi to get contractors and valves to operate and enough air required to stop in the first place, if you cant stop you cantmmove, applies to diesels and electric traction, such as our old class 400 EMU stock. Keep em coming Bob, take care

Glad you enjoyed it pete.

Hi Bob and Nigel. Nicley said with the coupling of locos and speed. When I was a driver didn't have any coupling to do. Our trains only went about 45 50 anyway. Love those little locos, really long trains for little engine's. Hope you had a great birthday. Thank you for sharing. Thumbs up thumped 👍 .... Pete....

New to your channel. Hornby seem to hire people without proper knowledge and Ive been to that new revamped Wonder Works nonsense. Prices are high and no decent layout there either. As you found out 21 non sound decoders are available. I use lais. These are about £12 and Digitrains stock them. Im on you tube too. Will watch more of your vids all the best

Extor is a very nice layout. Regards Alan in the loft :o0

21 pin gaugemaster decoder ? I use them and totally recommend them . Personally think that they are better than Hornby.

Absolutely lovely video. Also, you have a nice selection of trains.

I have a Dad’s Army layout (Walmington-on-Sea, on which I run both analog AND digital sound locomotives. I have eight analog locomotives and three digital sound locomotives.

Yes!! It’s spring already!! 1 March is the beginning of the new season, and the meteorological season.

Hi. I just stumbled across your channel! Love your layout. Really like the little allotment scene. :) Liked and Subbed! Cheers, Andy

Hello, I have just come a cross your channel. i did know that you have been on You Tube for over 5 years. Anyway i just wanted to say i enjoyed the video. and we do think alike. we run what we want and model railways are meant to be fun. hence why we add characters that have meaning. cheer's for now Tony.

Hi Bob. I'm most impressed! I assume that these are static models?

Hi Guys. I totally agree about the brightness of the station and other lights.

What year does your lay out depicts ?

It is like a museum, well done !

Ooh .... pretty ..... VERY pretty. When it comes to sound, the only clip of a turbomotive I've heard was a Swedish example. It's an almost alien sounding constant, throaty roar, rather than the familiar 'chuff chuff'. What we choose to run? Well, Brewer's Rule #1 applies. 🙂

Hi great vlog. I love the Turbomotive what an brilliant looking loco, great lightning as well. Going to try and get to more exhibitions this year. Not long done a vlog on the Crewe exhibition. Fantastic meet up and brilliant exhibits. So do love the smaller exhibitions. Layout looking superb, great bit of running session. Have a fantastic new year.🍾🍾 DELPH JUNCTION (Pete)

Happy New Year!

Happy new year guys 😊😊

Excellent layout. Just found your channel. Keep up the good work.

Very nice layout, thanks for the tour. MRYCG is no more, Barnabas Junction has shut it down, so I would not refer to it again bud!

I've been thinking about doing this for years and your videos have inspired me to get on with it. A follow up "how to" video would be most interesting. Not necessarily an entire build, but perhaps something on building a drive wheel or a steam dome. This is a fascinating art that deserves more recognition. Well done!

Great looking layout. I model modern image but the sound of a steam loco is never lost on me. Sounds amazing 👏👏👍👍

I purchased 3 versions and they all have had to go back. All 3 had glue drips on body one the smoke box dart handles were missing, one had rear steps loose in box, lined sound version on side tank paint work had been touched up but with different shade of paint and it covered a bit of the lining. In all a very poor quality model.

🇺🇦 Great vlog thank you. Know what you mean about the heat. I have mine in a log cabin at the end of the garden. Been lucky no damage anywhere. Like you I remember the steamers, and just came back from the East and West Somerset railway. Great days out. Stay safe. DELPH JUNCTION

Just wandering how did you make the done many thanks 😀😀

👍🚂🚞🚞🚞

Thats a bit different to Sams Trains review, he really slated his model. I have the GWR green one & am very happy with it.

👍I might be getting one of those cheers al

I insulted my loft with 75mm celotex,put two velux windows in carpet and a radiator and can go up anytime off year cheers al

Very well said, I myself have a loft layout and it’s always hard to spend time up there in the summer but now back to it again now we’ve dropped about 10 degrees, great running session and look forward to watching more videos from you in the coming months- say safe Mark

Hi what you said about our world couldn't of put it better myself. I have subscribed and going to look at your past videos your layout look interesting. Colin

David Bellamy is the name you’re after lol

Was nice meeting you and chatting at Birchington today 🙂 from the intercity 125 man 🙂

Hi love the models was wandering is there any plans for bullied loco many thanks dan

Wow they look amazing is there any plans that i can get hold off cheers in advance dan 😀😀😀

you have done a great job over the years well done !

was that prop spinning the wrong way?

I'm sure you'll decline once you read my question but: ¿Have you ever tried to do a series of how-to videos? As in sharing your building methods.

Can i ask how you make your domes please, i love your work.

Reminds me of scene in Battle of Britain movie at the beginning where Jayme taxies up his Hurricane and gets lectured by Flight Lt. Harvey, " Don't ever let me catch you doing a victory roll over my airfield again."

Woooooww!!! These are gorgeous! I have two questions though. Do the wheels and rods move? And what class of engine is the one at 2:07?

the sound of the engine I did not put together it was supplied by magic scale modelling " i'll be interested in seeing any other people work if you done the same

Very impressive work.

I discovered your channel whilst looking for some information about some much smaller card locomotives made by LITTLE CARD TRAINS. The Terrier I bought is only HO gauge but you've given me some ideas. Thanks.

The only issue I have with these LED lighting sets is that they always seem too bright!
