Warley National Model Railway Exhibition 2022

In this video of my N Gauge Model Railway layout Bognor Regis, I attended for the first time Warley Model Railway Exhibition at the NEC centre, Birmingham. My lovely lady told me to go to the show as it would be very therapeutic for my Complex PTSD, so I booked a hotel for two nights so I could see the show on both days.
She is defiantly a keeper.
After a very long drive which took just over 4 hours and awful traffic conditions I arrived at my hotel on the Friday evening. The room was lovely and a mattress to die for LOL. To be honest my stress levels were going through the roof by this time, but having settled in my room and only 15 minutes away from the venue I began to relax. The follo...

Scalescenes kit building final, part 4

Просмотров 324Год назад

Apologies for delay in getting out part 4 due to health issues. The mask shown at the end of the video simply creates a mist in the hope that it clears your chest. CPAP is entirely different, apologies if any confusion caused. At the end I talk about creating wagon rakes for the eras and area I am covering.

The International N Gauge Show 2022

Просмотров 29 тыс.Год назад

Apologies for the delay in this update due to feeling unwell of late. Started with a sore throat and turned into a chest infection. Cannot stop coughing so no commentary. Hurray I hear you shout. I attended on the Sunday and I was initially disappointed when I first got there, I honestly thought 2021 was busier and that they had a major display when this one did not. When I got home I watched l...

Scalescenes kit building, Part 3

Apologies for all those that find this update is all about suck eggs and extremely boring, even I dozed off a couple of times. But if someone just starting out on their first N Gauge Scalescenes build finds these short updates a benefit then my job is done.

In this update I show you two more RUclipsrs who show you how they get on with their Scalescenes kit bashing. Station Road Model Railway ruclips.net/user/StationRoadModelRailway Wimbletrain ruclips.net/channel/UCy0qLGUQl6aoH6LZawfJOzg I show you my old MetCalfe engine shed build and why I think Scalescenes lends itself more to kit bashing and more. Finally a few more tools I use in the build. P...

Scalescenes kit building Part 1

Просмотров 8412 года назад

This will be the first in a short series of updates on how to build a N Gauge Scalescenes RO24 Weighbridge/Coal Office. Having seen loads of Scalescenes buildings built I have to say I am very impressed with them. I have built a number of Metcalfe buildings in the past so I would say I am not a novice but I have never attempted a Scalescene one. Having viewed very few videos here on RUclips the...

A look at my soldering kit and demo of my wire crimper and wire stripper, all purchased well over a year ago. My visit to John's, Exmouth Harbour and meeting Ken of Medway Peninsula there. A look at my layout so far along with a question regarding track spacing and a slight running of trains.

In this update I share my opinion of my visit to The London Festival of Railway Modelling, Alexander Palace. It is a fantastic show and one of three I attend every year. Covers all gauges/scales but sadly lacking if you want to purchase N Gauge/scale items. Whilst at the show I did purchase two Southern Rail, Graham Farish steam trains, a C Class 1294 Southern black and a SE&CR N Class 1860 Sou...

The London Festival of Railway Modelling, 20th March 2022 at Alexandra Palace.

Fantastic day out, very few visitors. Good for me but not for the exhibitors although they said on the Saturday you could not move because of the huge crowd. Looking at video of my last visit here before Covid it was only slightly busier. I had a very long list of things I wanted but got none as this is primary a show for HO and others with only few stalls selling items for N gauge, I did purch...

Explaining about future visit to The London Festival of Railway Modelling at the Alexandra Palace on Sunday, 20th March 2022. Work on incline to make it permanent. Trains running up incline, can you guess how many carriages being pulled though. Brief explanation about what is next on the layout.

Pendon Museum

This is about our visit to Pendon Museum on Wednesday, 23rd Feb 2022. Apologies for the video going in and out of focus but it was shot on my mobile through glass. This is a layout depicting the countryside and houses as it was in 1928, it just so happens that a railway runs through it to our delight. Everything is exactly as it was during that period of time including the railway and the train...

#20 Backscreens, love them or hate them

Просмотров 4152 года назад

I did video putting the backscenes onto the upvc soffit board and it all went without a hitch, but I binned it cos I didn't like it. Far too long and to much waffling. These are Art Printers 15" premium self adhesive screens and you have to line them up correctly as you do not get a second attempt. The self adhesive grips straight away with no wiggle room. Stuck down whilst laying flat, no crea...

#19 A visit to Tony's Model Railway.

Просмотров 5012 года назад

Preamble is about my mental health and reason why layout build is taking so long. Also thanking everyone for putting up with me as I have now passed 500 subscribers. The visit is to Tony's layout, although it is basically a large oval circuit with lines in either direction it has an interesting section whereby the station has three platforms and yet platform 2 can be used by trains travelling f...

Problems with levels which effected the long 1% incline I was building. App on mobile called Laser Level not good enough. Purchased a digital level which showed everything was out of kilter, so everything taken apart and started again. Back section and one side section put right, three more to do, which will mean one third of benchwork completed. Then it is a case of continuing with the benchwo...

#17 Incline tests

Просмотров 6792 года назад

My 40 year old Minitrix trains did not fare well on this test, two failed to make it and two really struggled. But maybe they just need a really good run in. My new locos, well that is a different story and you will have to watch the video to find out. I hope you enjoy this video. Regards Chris
