Nice layout, I like the backscene where the water is. It fits in nicely with the scene . Great video again Karl ...cheers James 🙂👍

Hi Karl, you're certainly capturing some nice layouts... Cheers, James 🙂👍

Loads of great detail in there Karl. Great layout. Happy Modelling

I do like the RTC livery locomotives and rolling stock

Gronk, who doesn't have a gronk on their layout.

Another nice layout, Karl. Hopefully, Dylan will be uploading an update on his 009 layout at the weekend ... Cheers James 🙂👍

That's a cracking N gauge layout. Karl

Great looking and sounding locos ... Cheers James 🙂👍

Yeah, much bigger scale means much more detail. Awesome. Great looking layout. Happy Modelling

Those big boys look and sound great

Great video, Karl, and yet somewhere else, we need to revisit. Must add it to the list...cheers James 🙂👍

NYMR is up there with the GCR

Kal. you created unusual ~:)

I need a bubble car for my layout

That's a great looking layout, nicely done, and very realistic. Thank you for sharing, Karl ....cheers James 🙂👍

Wow. So much detail. Very realistic layout. Hope you're both well Karl. Happy Modelling

Nice one, Karl. Great layout

That's a nice-looking layout, Dylan enjoyed seeing it. He's been working on a building for his today ... Cheers James 🙂👍

Lovely layout!! Well filmed and well done!!

Hello. KLASSE LAKOMOTIVE 👍🏻🛤️🚅🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌........Fim🚂👮🏻🤚🏻

Great stuff Karl. The stone wall beside the road was very effective. Great modelling on display. 👍

Nice mix of gauges.

Some great detail and modelling on display there Karl. Very impressive. Happy Modelling

Yeah, it's nice there

Good grief, I played a blinder there, Karl. I missed that one, I'm literally 5 minutes away by car from there. Thankfully, you filmed it, so at least we got to see the layouts ... Cheers James 🙂👍

We do like these these layout by layout videos, another nice layout...cheers James 🙂👍

Just stumbled upon your channel great layout and content 👍🏻. Subscribed 🙂

wow awesome display of locos and sweet operating! :)

The class 47 that escaped my collection.

Hello. Klasse lakomotive 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks.....,FIM👮🏻🚂🤚🏻

Great scenery and modelling there Karl. Excellent.

You're certainly capturing some nice layouts for us to watch... Cheers James 🙂👍

One day my layout will look complete

The cable is designed to connect to the pickups included on the flatbed truck, to make up for the short wheelbase. On the 48DS I've seen, that's paired with a rigid bar connection plugged into the NEM socket on the locomotive, and the clip socket on the truck, rather than the pair of tension locks seen there; but I don't know if changing over to regular couplings was a running change, or a modification by the owner before you received it to review. The rigid bar and connecting wires are a bit of a mixed blessing, in my experience- it certainly improves connectivity on express points or curved points, but when connected that way the truck does *not* seem to reverse around curves - including points - very well when propelled by the locomotive, and the connecting wire on its own is liable to foul conventional tension locks. Personally, I replaced the rigid bar with a pair of magnetic Hunt couplings instead, which seemed to give the best combination of results, although it does mean having to be sure not to forget about the wires, when lifting the locomotive from storage to track or vice-versa by hand, as they certainly aren't meant to be load-bearing if you forget and only pick up the locomotive and not the truck, or vice-versa. On the flip-side, the locomotive doesn't really need *that* much of a sprint to be able to 'jump' the dead-zone on express points without the wire- the wheelbase is only *just* too short- the wire just provides for the ability to maintain the excellent slow-speed running that the Ruston is so good at, over the express points as well. If the owner is lucky enough to have had the time, space, and wiring expertise to set up his or her layout with electrofrog points throughout, then that connecting wire would be entirely superfluous, so that may be why it was removed. They're lovely little models and beautifully detailed. Certainly not the best at climbing a gradient with a load, and if you happen to use either tension lock uncoupling ramps or the Hornby travelling post office ramp system anywhere on your layout, sadly, those are places that the 48DS has to avoid, in my own experience, anyway, since the undercarriage of the locomotive quite simply sits far too low to clear either, and the poor thing will end up stalled, high and dry, unable to move, but this can't really be helped, fitting a mechanism into so tiny an engine as this, although it's unfortunate, given that the uncoupling ramps at least, are still current Hornby product. I've not tried getting them over the remote controlled uncouplers in their lowered position though- but it doesn't *look* like they would work.

That's a really nice-looking loco, Karl. On another note, my grandson has just uploaded a new video, 'The Postman' ...CheersJames 🙂👍

Arnold Lane! like it.

Very good Karl. Short wheel base so not a surprise that she struggles on some points. Price will be the main factor obviously. Happy Modelling

Very nice Karl

Another nicely done layout, with plenty of detail... Cheers James 🙂👍

Details Details Details.

Nice detail Karl. 👍

What a superb events by the looks of it! Must visit myself next year!

Looks like a great day out 🙂👍

I always enjoy this event because it's mainly created by the people dressing in period clothing.

Nice running session Karl, and great looking locos... Cheers James🙂👍

Very nice Karl. Layout is looking great. Must say though. Had a laugh at the hand of god coming up in the Marshalling yard. 😅 Happy modelling.

Crimson locomotives look great

Hello. KLASSE LAKOMOTIVE 🛤️🚅🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌🚌👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻. Fim👮🏻🚂🤚🏻

Another enjoyable video featuring another nicely detailed layout...cheers James 🙂👍

Some great modelling on show there Karl. 👍
