Join us for the start of the new Key Model World and Hornby Magazine layout build series as we create a brand-new 'OO' gauge diesel depot. Watch the first part here on RUclips and Key Model World from 8pm on Friday March 10. Visit www.keymodelworld.com/building-a-diesel-depot for more information.
Hello, a great video, I'm going to recreate it in H0, I've been looking for something like this for a long time to present my diesel locomotives... Keep up the good work, I'm already looking forward to episode 2.👍👍👍👍👍👌
Hi guys. Useful video as I have undertaken the extended version(both packs). Have to keep rerunning a few snips to get baseboard/etc dimensions . I was wondering if there is a track plan and track number stock list available for the 'as seen' video? cheers.
Great video as ever gents, I was lucky enough to see it at Glasgow a few weeks back and it was spectacular to say the least, a very simple track plan but plenty of operational potential within a small space. Had a great chat with Mark about the concept and all things model railway to which was nice. Look forward to seeing the complete series over the coming weeks to and how you got it to the completed article for MRS. Keep up the great work as always James
I'm actually planning a 00/009 layout for my living room atm (since it turns out the loft isn't included in our flat purchase), which'll include a diesel depot like this above the TV to display a load of my models. So I 'll be taking some pointers from this.
I saw this layout at MRS and stood looking at/watching it for some time. Took quite a few pictures and will certainly use it for inspiration later in the year for a new build. Had a really good talk with Mark and commended the what they had done. Awesome 👏🏻
Super cool module that I've just thought of controlling level crossing gates via different methods to try out with glass reed switches as the remote press buttons. The copper coated wire I find hateful to solder to and tin. Are there any good tips on getting a good joint. My other pet hate is lead-free solder, also hateful to use.
Until you moved indoors, I was thinking that all that was missing was Richard saying "There's another fine mess you've gotten us into," and that you really shouldn't take any jobs delivering pianos up long flights of steps. Lovely little build, though, chaps.
Can I tell you what I think would be the Most Epic thing: Taking a giant Wherehouse and building the Entire Island of Sodor. OO scale for standard gauge, and OO9 for Narrow gauge. A full Island of Sodor layout.
Very nice gents ,but who decided to built in in a tent 😂,where was LuLu Richard the dog was having a kipp ,layout looks great all the best to you both and team Mark😊😊
Ha ha - the tent was a good idea at the time as the new workshop space for baseboard construction wasn’t ready in time to meet our Model Rail Scotland deadline. The dog in this video is Mike’s dog Luna. She helps by sleeping!
Like the replies, we didn’t see the need for cork as there is very little payback in noise transition at slow speeds, particularly after ballasting. If it was a main line layout there would definitely have been cork underlay.
I am in the middle of making my first layout and this has helped alot, i was wondering what was the Brass things screwed/nailed under the track at 20:17 in the Video? And where can one buy said items?
These are copper clad sleepers to hold the rails in place at the baseboard joints because it is a portable layout. You can buy versions of these from DCC Concepts which are black with solder pads on them.
Great video, look forward to seeing this one. A question though. Why does the TMC advert say free post over £50 still when this was changed to over £100?
Stratford MPD had platforms between the tracks. The depot was 4 roads back to back with office and mess rooms in the middle. Nice model but Stratford, nah.

Hi Guy's, looks like a bit of smoking mirrors this one, Building a diesel Depot part 1. Its a bit misleading. Looks like this is the only video you get free & have to be a member of Key-publishing to get the others so guess it will be a pay job? What else is misleading is the price of the Depots at £85 & £130 with the bit on the end. All sounds good until you realise you are using at least 2 x units to make your depot so well over £200. These things should be made aware to viewers as it looks like a bit of sharp practise & I'm sure you don't want to be labeled as that. So let's have the full info so we all know what the score is. Thank you.
Thank you for the feedback - we take it all on board. We have included the pricing for the depot kits in this video - sadly timber prices aren't what they used to be. If you want to trial further access to Key Model World, Part Two is available for free when you sign up for a free account on the site here: www.keymodelworld.com/article/how-build-diesel-depot-oo-gauge-part-two Parts 3 and 4 are part of the Premium Subscriber package on Key Model World which also gives access to more than five years of Hornby Magazine and Airfix Model World back issues, access to over 5,500 articles, extensive lists of exclusive video content and first access to all new video created by the team.
@@hornbymag As I said sharp practice. If you were up front why not give all parts for free? Part 2 you have to sign up to get & parts 3 & 4 are only then available if you pay the subscription. People have got wise to this sort a con. First the banks, then the government it's seeping everywhere. None of you can lay in the bed straight.
@@robbiecook8770 you don’t get nothing for nothing. This is a business and as such it is run in a way any business should. RUclips isn’t only for people creating free content; it’s for businesses and brands to use it as a promotional tool to bring in more interest and customers. If you want to watch a movie you pay for Netflix, so if you want to watch the whole series of building a diesel depot then you pay for that too. Nothing to be gained from complaining.
@@NewtonGrove19F Hi Newton Grove, I come from a generation where we paid for everything & not a spoon feed culture of today expecting it all for nothing so I don't need preaching to. There are plenty of people giving freely on youtube their ideas & help wanting nothing in return, take Charlie on Chadwick Model Railway for instance. At 78 & building my first model railway I need all the help I can get especially as it's DCC & all the electrics involved. I'm most thankful to all those in the model world that give their help & advice freely. My point about the Diesel Depot from Hornby Magazine & Keymodelworld was they showed the first part FREE (as if boasting about it) stating that the next 3 parts would be over the next 3 Fridays. They never stated that it was for sign up members thereafter so I felt it was a way of sharp practice. If you have nothing to hide be up front open & honest is that what we now expect in this day & age? Governments & local bodies have to by law. It just left me with a bitter taste when I followed up for week two. My first reaction was what's the con. It's put me on my guard of dealing with Keymodelworld as thats not the sort of practice I like. Be honest & up front, if I have to pay I can then make a choice whether to or not. The concept of the Depot was great & very helpful though I never saw it through as I felt it somewhat misleading in what you would actually need. To achieve their design 2 x depot building were needed without the extra bit. To build as shown you needed at least £215 for the depot sheds. I'm sure there was a profit to be made from those parts alone let alone all the rest of the parts you would need to complete the project over the next 3 weeks. Profit is not a dirty word in my vocabulary it's needed to make the world go round. I've been in business all my life. It the integrity in how you make that profit. Guess I'll just have to wait for all those invoices from Charlie @ Chadwick Model Railway. Robbie.
I have not had a response from key in relation to signing up for more videos etc. Keeps rejecting my email as spam which is incorrect. If this company wants people to invest in their products/services , I kindly suggest they get their admin sorted out. Receiving no responses after been told to contact their admin is bad service.
Hi Richard, Please call our office during business hours and we can help you srt this issue out. Sometimes there are technical issues beyond our control, but a siple phone call to use will get it sorted for you 😊

Your'e calling the diesel depot Knapford? Knapford station from Thomas The Tank Engine & Friends. 👍
Can't wait!
Wonderful video
This is very interest video. Nice grednings from Germany. My first oo gauge Modell is: Dapol Class 59 DB Schenker.. 😊
Hello, a great video, I'm going to recreate it in H0, I've been looking for something like this for a long time to present my diesel locomotives... Keep up the good work, I'm already looking forward to episode 2.👍👍👍👍👍👌
Brilliant layout oh how how i wish it was like that these days use to love going to the open days.
Very nice models 😊
AAAAA+++++ thank you guys :)
Awesome. Very inspiring. Very clearly filmed
Thanks so much!
This is gonna be quite wonderful I think. That engine shed is something else! Joachim
Enjoyed this video and clearly and superbly filmed. Thanks!
Would have liked to have seen the electrics being done, it's pretty fundamental to the layout.
Yaaaaaaa
Hi guys. Useful video as I have undertaken the extended version(both packs). Have to keep rerunning a few snips to get baseboard/etc dimensions . I was wondering if there is a track plan and track number stock list available for the 'as seen' video? cheers.
I agree a track plan with parts would be extremely helpful.
I bought the hornby magazine edition which lists down the various parts but not the actual number of turnouts required to be purchased.
Looking good Gents.
Great video as ever gents, I was lucky enough to see it at Glasgow a few weeks back and it was spectacular to say the least, a very simple track plan but plenty of operational potential within a small space.

Excelente trabajo!!!! Impresionante Hattons, todos los meses realizo compras con ellos. Les mando un gran saludo desde Argentina!

Very informative and inspiring video, a shame about the annoying music though
Criminal isn't it? Spoils some excellent content.
Can I tell you what I think would be the Most Epic thing: Taking a giant Wherehouse and building the Entire Island of Sodor. OO scale for standard gauge, and OO9 for Narrow gauge. A full Island of Sodor layout.
Maybe an electric depot next?
What would be different apart from the fizzy knitting?
Great Video and a good inspiration....what were the dimensions of each board that you joined ?? Many thanks Tim
Or. a steam depot next
will i be able to catch up with this on youtube as i am not a subscriber to key model world.
Didn’t show how to measure and cut out the slots for the pits????
how tall is the clearance on the depot "doors" please - might make a good bus depot (without the long pits :))
Very nice gents ,but who decided to built in in a tent 😂,where was LuLu Richard the dog was having a kipp ,layout looks great all the best to you both and team

@@hornbymag😂
I am surprised that you didn’t put something under the track to mitigate any noise transmission
I think as the locos will be running slowly, cork or other underlay to cut noise isnt needed?
Once you ballast it reverbs anyway so its negligible.
Like the replies, we didn’t see the need for cork as there is very little payback in noise transition at slow speeds, particularly after ballasting. If it was a main line layout there would definitely have been cork underlay.

A steam shed next?
Maybe, we will see! We already have plans for our next project. 🤓

TMC advert will be getting updated soon.
Surely you should be wearing safety googles when using the saw
And a covid mask
