Wow ! 🤩 that’s looking amazing Dave! Excellent running and great viewpoints , watching the trains snake through the station throat looked fantastic, if I ever rebuild my layout it’s going to look something like this 😃👍 cheers Darrell
Hi, I think they were railtrack wagons and I rubbed down the blue railtrack paint and then masked and resprayed the yellow stripe. Then just added the Network Rail transfers. It took some time to do and I did it because when received someone had tried painting them and had done an awful job so they needed stripping back anyway. Thanks, Dave
Thanks! Running double headers has been an ongoing issue. I use various methods. Many of the locos have their drive train removed and motor disconnected so they are dummies (like the Harry Needle 20). I did it this was as trying to speed match Zimo and ESU decoder is almost impossible! For the West Coast double 33 and 57 combo, this was tricky. The second 33 is a dummy with no sound and drive shafts removed. Tried that with the 57 too but kept uncoupling so just spent some time speed matching it with the 33. I set all locos to linear speed curves anyway so as long as the max speed is the same it becomes relatively straight forward. The final method is the easiest and I use the same decoder and same settings, sometimes a bit of tweaking is needed but generally they run well this way. Hope this helps 👍
Excellent a joy to watch great variety of trains
Really good ,great variation of trains. The scenery looks brilliant
Excellent video. The captions really added to the pleasure of watching the trains go by.

Thanks Darrell! Your layout is great, where did you get the background of the houses/town from? Cheers, Dave
@@GoodfordModelRailway ahh cheers mate, are you talking about the back of houses above the station or the hillside ones?
@@darrelldeltic807 think it’s on the hillside?
@@GoodfordModelRailway it’s the Gaugemaster GM704 large village measures 2744x304mm if that helps
@@darrelldeltic807 perfect, thanks! Sure you are aware but I can’t comment on your videos as you have them set as “made for kids”. Cheers, Dave

Loving the video! the layout is coming on nicely. really hope you decide to fit a TMD in somewhere haha
good vid on channel running trains
Hi, could you let me know how you changed your Bachmann JJA wagons to the yellow and black network Rail emblem on the side? Thanks for sharing.

Great running video, Dave. You have an interesting range of varied stock. Layout is beginning to look good too! Cheers, Karl.
Great video, reminds me of EverardJunction on RUclips.
So cool 😊
Great Vid 👌👍
Lovely running session,how do set up you’re locomotives to run double headers smoothly on DCC do you use the same decoders with same cv settings ?
