Видео

Nicely filmed and narrated, also like your choice of music. Enjoyable watch👍

I have recently come back to the hobby after a long lay off. Your channel came up as a suggestion after I had subscribed to a few others. I will be watching all your videos Be good to see it develop. I actually used to live in Horsehay, Baylam Close, not far from the Steam Railway. I will be watching with lots of interest. Well done.

That viaduct is brill. Who makes it?

Can l ask where you got your 08 shunter figure from ?

This was my first Fareham Railex, it was a really impressive show wasn't it! Much bigger than I was expecting. I took a class 33 along for Sam of Emperors Path to weather, which worked out very well, and had some really interesting chats to some of the people running the layouts and stands. You've presented a very good overview of the show, and I echo others comments about the sound, much better than a load of hubbub!

You from telford mate ? would be good to know someone in telford in case you need advice etc

Finally getting some time to watch this video David. Never change the intro it's genuinely brilliant 👍 I appreciate the views without the background chatter which so often ruin vlogs like this... Re. The house. Have yog thought about just hiring a hall and charging entry fees Pendon style... Youll get a lot more room 😂😂😂 I think it may have been me mention your channel on the podcast, or at least i was one of many to mention you. Big love for Horsehay 🐴

Hi, great video. Where did you get the viaduct from it looks fantastic

Houses would be much better designed by model railway enthusiasts, then there would be no bloody joists in the way. 😉

I love your choice of music. It's much better than the conversations usually heard on exhibition videos. Pete

Very nice purchases, looked a good exhibition 👍

Hi, I was there too and some lovely layouts with friendly exhibitors. Arun Quay was a standout for me and I spent a long time chatting about the building scratch builds. There was a lovely GWR layout which I watched for ages too. Cheers.

Just back from the Newcastle and District MRC exhibition where there were excellent layouts, including Arun Quay which features briefly in your video. I spent rather less than you, but did weaken and buy a fairly recently published book by Pete Goss on Modelling Buildings and a few other extravagances - you can't just walk past a Squires stand can you ? Thanks for the video and beautiful music, and best wishes.

cool video, thank you David

Thank you for replacing the audio. That's the one thing that puts me off viewing entire layout videos. All the nonsense chat around that's just noise. So thank you.

Lovely video. That was my first exhibition in a long time as well and I had a great time. Are you planning on attending the SHMRC exhibition in Portsmouth next weekend?

The actual 31s were heavier than a Deltic.

superp model railway, i am currently building a model railway, i have a viaduct like yours built from the wills viaduct kit, but what done was add 2 wills stone sheets to the piers making the viaduct much taller i am very pleased with the result.

I had a few for haulage out of Paddington in the early 80's.

Hi David, I've just come across your channel & spent the last hour (maybe two) watching your previous videos. I have to say your scenery & general modelling skills are superb !! Very well done Sir. I've enjoyed the scenery construction & especially the making of the Post Office and shop. I'll definitely be following your layout progress, keep up the excellent work. All the best....Andy

Nice video. I have 31128 with the headlights instead of head codes. Definitely another great Accurascale model. I think I may be the only one who has one of these running on DC because quite frankly I can’t afford it😂

Hello David, I've just come across your channel. I have to say your scenes really do look very good, and I did like your commentry explaining how you went about building up those scenes. I'm not sure if you have done it yet, but a tour round your layout would be most welcome. Subbed to your channel, and look forward to followinjg your progress with the layout. All the very best, from another Dave!

Wow your viaduct scene looks amazing.

Yet again another professional video from you and not much waffle on the unboxing of the BOX 👍 I’m impressed with the locomotive’s quality and details. Thank you David

Another excellent model by A/scale

HRM... Nice easy to watch video, Accurascales Brush 2 is a great model, I have one that's sound fitted, No.31432, for our NW themed layout as this loco worked the club trains to Manchester amongst other duties. The 3D printed crew are advertised by Accurascale as press fit into the cab seats, the driver was, but the second man with leg up on the desk needed a spot of black tack up his backside. Impressed with your channel so Subscribed. All the best Steve.

Ive got hornby detailed versions rescued from mazac, whether or not they were prototypical ill probably run them around 😂😂 Great video as usual mate, and the tunnel scene really looks brilliant.

I have 31402 sound fitted. These 31s look and run wonderfully. Nice review, David.

such a lovely model! I cant wait to see their other livery options for it, but it sounds phenomenal!

Appologies for this video being in 1080p rather than 4k. I filmed parts on my new phone and didn't remember to change it to 4k. Future videos will be back in 4k as normal.

Just a little note the crew in that guise drove the green era locos, You needed the crew that Accurascale advertise as deltic crew, I drove these in the seventies and crew uniform had changed.

I hope this helps... I never saw a 31 in Plymouth.or Cornwall myself, but they were regulars on the Barnstaple route. And I clearly remember riding begun one on a train from Paignton in approx 1980. The hornby one was superb. Let's hope this and other recent locos don't start to rot like many other manufacturers have found with Chinese products...not limited to hornby

Definitely sounds like a Jamie Goodman sound file, all coughie and spluttery. I do like it, the head code boxes look great and the side detail is we’ll pick out. Just shows, mazak apart, how good the old Hornby version was though. Not massive difference, the Bachmann one is also a great looker👍

Very nice video. I took up landscape painting thanks to the late, great Bob Ross. I found much of what I had learned I could use on my railway if I used acrylics instead of oils. The wet on wet technique is a good one; like Bob used to say, 'We don't make mistakes, we just have happy accidents!' Everyone should give it a go, Thanks for the video - and great music too.

very interesting as usual its nice to realise we all make mistakes the wiring is almost less than DC Ha Ha

That’s some beautiful scenic work.

Excuse my language... Bloody fantastic... And the class 31 is decent to 😂 🎉

Hi David I have just came across this. Lovely looking 33, really looks the business 👍🏻 Please could you let me know who’s sound file you chose? It does sound very good, nice Sulzer chugging going on ! However, I didn’t notice any brake sounds.

Very good!. I do like the forward planning you have presented with your interconnects and wiring concepts. Organized, neat and tidy. I know MERG is interested in a module interconnect which is something they do not have in their Kit Locker at the moment. I will be sharing your PCB concept for sure and it may even get some traction. To that end I have laid out my own PCB with the basic concepts you have shown and once it arrives along with the rest of the bits and bobs I will be showing it to MERG as a proposed offering (or something to turn into one)..

Excellent wiring! Fellow MERG member accross the pond in Texas building 00. Yeah, I'm a glutton for punishment.... I Like your point motor mounts. Did you 3d print your mounts? Any chance of sharing the stl file or link?

A lot of interesting elements there David. I'm about to start helping my Dad with his new layout. I'm also a bit of an electronics nerd and will be doing a similar thing, although I'm going custom ESP microprocessors on custom boards with a simple CanBus loop. For power I'm going 24v AC over all tracks; engines/loco's will also have ESP32's onboard with brushless motors and ESC's; they will also have small LiPo cells that charge from the 24v AC rails; this means I don't have to run power through points etc, so will make life easier. I like the block section detection method using CT clamps and sensitive ADC's, although not sure how that will maintain detection for rolling stock that does not pull any current...? the plan is to automate the entire layout using NodeRed to under pin the logic and sequencing whilst giving Dad some manu controls and one button routines where sensible. Well done on the wiring, and having seen yours, I'm probably going to go with a mini-module at each location that needs something; it'll be a lot of ESP chips but they are very cheap and boards from PCB Way are also very cheap. This way I'm only running four wires around the layout; CanH CanL and the 24v AC two wires.

Would absolutely love some MERG demos please

try laisdcc decoders.

Welcome back, David. Are you having a gradient to connect the upper level to the main lower sections? K

Talk about taking the enjoyment out of scale railroading. You Sir, make a hobbie more of a total mind boggling JOB. Gratz on ruining your own fun.
