Wonderfully done guvnor!
Beautifully shot and produced as well as wonderfully narrated! A work of miniature railway bliss!
Clever use of running water takes this little world to another level.
Beautifully done !
Thanks Harry. Adding a stream was a top priority when I planned the railway and it seems to have worked out OK
This is the best garden model video series I know. Not only the quality of the landscapes you have created, and the matter-of-fact narration, but the fact that you provided a map in the initial programmes. Very important, and often neglected. The network and the possibilities it provides are a big part of the pleasure.
Thanks Alan. It's really reassuring to get such positive feedback. I really enjoy running my trains and thinking up different scenarios for the videos. A lot of the time. I just plonk the camera down and figure out afterwards how to edit the bits together (as in this video), but sometimes I work out beforehand what clips I need to tell a particular story ( eg Jeanne's Day Out). It adds another layer of interest.
Always charming to go for a ride on your railway Rik. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you!
Thanks Tom
Such a wonderful story, told and presented so very well. A most enjoyable watch. Thank you again :) W
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you!
Rik - absolutely fantastic. Great filming and story telling.
A Fabulous film ! I especially enjoyed the evening scenes. I used to enjoy running my garden railway as darkness fell, glass in hand, until the dew came down and traction was lost on the wet rails.
Really enjoyable thank you for uploading this
Utterly delightful - this is my kind of railway! (I work in HOm and OO12). I really like the 0-4-4. A lovely, really believable model.
Love the scene crossing the river about 1:20 - perfection.
Enjoyed the railway video.
Awesome video once again. Love your garden railway. So scenic and lush. Especially love the water mill and small creek/river. It reminds me of the Scarloey railway in the Thomas TV Series. Your voice reminds me of a good friend of mine who you received some of your sound cards from. He owns MyLocoSound here in South Australia. Every time I hear your locomotives it reminds me of my friend’s garden railway. Anyhoo, thanks for sharing with us, Rik! Enjoyed every moment of it. Regards, Caleb
Thanks Caleb. I've communicated with Peter on several occasions - and he's even included one of my videos on his website. Give him my regards. I've never heard his voice though.
P.L.R my favourite railway i've never ridden on!
I love so much about this - your narration style is really well done (I wish you narrated most documentaries, genuinely), and you've put so much effort into this line, both as a physical project and in terms of the fictional history, that it feels real to me in a way a lot of model railway projects don't quite get for me. I think a lot of it's in the consistency; the liveries, the loco names, all of that stuff is just really well thought out. That, and the in-depth timetabling; I'm sure I'll someday end up telling someone about the 3ft line in Peckforton, completely forgetting it didn't actually exist XD
One thing I really like is the variety of coaching stock? It might be just me, but I think it really sells the _feel_ of a light railway to have that mishmash of a few different coaches, all of very different construction and style, but painted up in the same livery and consisted together - it adds variety without making anything stick out, and really gives the sense of a line that's acquired whatever equipment was available over the years.
I'm not normally a garden railways person (I'm into OO9 myself), but there is so much genuine talent and effort here and I've been really enjoying going through your videos - keep up the amazing work!!
Thanks so much for that feedback. I showed the missus to prove I haven't been wasting my time out in the garden. Mind you, she has always been supportive and tolerant. I suppose she at least knows where I am and what I'm up to. I get a great deal of satisfaction from trying to run things like a real railway. I sometimes put myself in the role of the railway staff trying to solve problems as they arise. Though real staff wouldn't have the ultimate ' Hand of God' which I can use when things get really tricky 😉
at 1:28 what plants do you use to coat the rocks? they look amazing
It's a mix of moss and Mind Your Own Business (Soleirolia soleirolii aka Hens and Chicks, Baby's Tears). They prefer a shady area rather than full sun.
Delightful! You've really achieved a fine level of realism, coupled with the highly desirable addition of pleasant fiction! One of your many excellent videos I have enjoyed.
Thanks Oliver. I enjoy making them so it's really great to get positive feedback. Makes it all worthwhile.
Always love watching your videos. At 08:20 I wondered why the down mixed didn't just run in to Beeston Castle on the 'up' side and deposit the covered wagon in one shunt. Then I realised that the 'up' had collected an extra box van and so instead of doing a shunt on the down and the up you could get away with doing only one shunt. Nice work. 😀
Now, that's what I call having an eye for detail. Well spotted!
I do enjoy trying to figure out shunting issues as I take the goods or mixed trains Down and back up the line. I don't always get it right ..... 😉
@@rikbennett9 I love this kind of stuff. I'm currently planning a model railway which integrates all these kinds of issues. Hopefully you will be able to question my decisions on it soon!
I think maybe some day you should try live steam, they are beautiful
Hi Connor. I very occasionally run my live steamer but I couldn't use them for operating sessions. They take too much looking after.
❤🚂👍
I noticed Boxton has an A4 chime whistle, are you planning to change this? (With the A4 chime being a placeholder) Or is this it's permanent whistle?
Permanent (for now). It's such an old soundcard I'm not sure I know how to change it...... 🤔
