Julian Norton On Call with a Yorkshire Vet
Amazing!
What a triumph! Beyond art.
Amazing ❤
Best I have ever seen, Brilliant...
Good to see an Eastern Region themed layout. .I was born and bred in Cheshire and know nothing about this layout. It looks fabulous.
Ugly coaches yes, but what a layout…..beeeeutiful.👍🏽
Superb😮
Absolutely fantastic a great pleasure to watch more please
Absolutely fantastic
Just WOW !!! Don’t know where to start with how absolutely fantastic this is….the dedication, time and commitment to bring this to life is truly next level…beautiful work…would love to see it up close
Like the Deltic sounds - really good
Utterly fantastic, I didn't know that such incredible layouts exist. Thanks to everybody who brought us this beautiful layout.
Just shows how far the whole country has been allowed to fall into decrepitude. Almost nothing worthy of comment has been built since the 1830s.
Click on my graphic and scroll down to see the GWR ENGINE BOOK 1932. Fascinating video you have here.
When is this book available
Thre book is available now. visit www.gnbooks.co.uk/product/the-glorious-years-of-the-gnr/
Is there anything about Stamford in the book?
Does anyone know if John Ryan's has sold his layout or if he's still about sorry to sound morbid but I've just seen a layout very much like it on utube
Incredible detail. Amazing.
No Blackmore???
He is in the book
and on the video, pictured at 0.58 and his name mentioned at 1.01.
Harrison was sufficient. Thanks!
Bill Nelson?
The author is friends with Bill. For this book it was decided to cut off at 72 and the feeling was that Bill's solo and BeBop Deluxe career kicked in after. we hope to do a follow up and Bill Nelson would be the start point. Hopefully we will sell enough copies of this one!
@gnbooksuk Thank You Kindly!
The GNR had some of the best express engines. We’re lucky to have the chain of their express locos in preservation, from the Stirling Single to Henry Oakley to Flying Scotsman (even though that was built just after the grouping).
Saw Colin Hall and Bob Harris talking about these songs and other wonderful Beatles memories a few days ago. It was a great evening, thoroughly enjoyed by all. Colin was the custodian of Mendips, John Lennon's childhood home. His wife had the same role at 20 Forthlin Road where Paul had lived.
What an unbelievable amount of talent from such a tiny island. Over the moon to see Syd Barrett increasingly get some acknowledgement for his incredible guitar playing as much as his songwriting.
I agree with most but no>>> Justin Hayward the first true "Prog Rock" Guitarist. and would be in the top 5 of your list. Joe Moretti : Who really played lead on Jet Harris & Tony Meehan and the Tony Meehan Combo recordings (Who also mentored Jimmy Page and John McLaughlin) Steve Marriot: Who mentored Ronnie Wood.
Is that what we would call 2rail O scale in Arizona USA???...😊😊
Lovely just lovely.
Fantastic.
This is fantastic John
Great atmosphere, I can almost smell the smoke !
Great ,must have cost a few quid .Well done
Superb
what a stunning layout you must be so proud of it
Cvmf Toulon
I've already bought a copy I'm a huge fan
I loved the Deltic, and all this is so realistic.
Finally someone who gets the track and ballast the right colour. The view on 2.45 shows this stunning trackwork. Congratulations.
I am from India I am fascinated with the layout and working model trains....and realistic tracks...looking awesome...which country and place is this..I would like to visit this place..and where do I get these trains for me to buy it
This man's commitment to excellence is super-human. Beautiful!
Fabulous & nice to have the funds to do it.
Absolutely fabulous
That is one fine layout! I love the simple, clean and austere look about it all. Awesome!
Stunning
Absolutely superb.....so well done
super camera work. lots of effort. very slick
Very good. I wasn't even aware that there was O gauge available without that hokey, unrealistic third rail.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Amazing layout. I am so envious.
Could not resist the title!!!! Apart from Sinatra, this took me back to the 60's, when on 0-0 gauge(?) my older brother and I would run the Christmas Eve Special! He hooked up his British trains to mine, led by a Candian Pacific...with a real light! Cool I'd say. All, in our little boxroom, upstairs, in a little terraced house with no bath and an outside toilet. Behind us marshalling yards, and a slaughterhouse, to our right we had our only lovely Catholic neighbours and to our left a Guiness brewery. But as Coproal Jones would say "but they were good times"...............thank you John Ryan.....oh ..by the way.....that train, that train...... ran all night ..until Santa Claus came in, when we had fallen asleep at our posts...and he turned off the power......that burning/acrid smell of over-heated transformers! Thank you all for posting. Magniicent! I can still dream of a mancave one day, can't I?
Great layout. Thanks for sharing
