Another superb update Mike. It’s your commentary and information and the well presented manners that continues to make your channel stand out from the others. Good job 👍
Real rail modelling and operation - without gimmicks....stay as you are doing it's the best
Thanks
Love the video, even with your percieved faults. Lol!! I go through the same thing and talk to myself. At least you're talking to viewers, I am usually talking to myself. I have no excuse. Thanks for the video
I’ll talk to myself as well. Where else are you going to get expert advice from? ;)
Like the blend of raised background...wonderful
I've been watching your videos for the last year or so and thought you were very critical about your ability to shunt, Your shunting has improved a lot over the last year. Well done mate. Keep it up,
Thanks
Brilliant video again Mike. The way you use the layout as a loop but also as an end to end is brilliant. Thanks for the inspiration to get back in to this hobby.
Thanks
Nice
I really do think this is one of your best layouts, and the shunting options are just brilliant 😁👍
Thanks Bro, happy birthday
@@BudgetModelRailways Happy Birthday to you to 😊👍
A great line up I personally am going to get my platforms built first then move on
Great shunting session - I would definitely want to watch more.
Thanks
And don't feel you need to worry about hand of god or indeed to do more than say what you are doing in a shunting session. Just watching it happen is interesting to see, and to enjoy.
I have seen now your shunting session and I have two things in mind seeing it. First, I find your overall landscape very convincing seeing from a casual point of view. It's very realistic, clean to the eye with what is needed put where it is needed, no scenery overload or obvious trick visible in plain sight. I take notes on it for my own projects.
Second, your scenario for the shunting operations and their motives is highly realistic, and adds a lot to your overall setting. Your explanations during the (very interesting) shunting session is a superb bonus. As you said, fun is paramount in modelling, and it was fun to watch in my opinion.
For the jacking up of the prices, you have already guessed that anything is used by the manufacturers as a justification to increase their prices, regardless of the needs of the market. Well, you are right to say that DCC is not mandatory, and you can get along without it. I would start railway modelling from scratch now, I would discard this option immediately. I already have DCC equipment from ages ago, that's why I use it. But not on my N gauge rolling stock : a misplaced pain to do that on my japanese rolling stock, and no bonus in operations on my US rolling stock. Note that those reasons are valid for both class of N gauge equipment... Put a DCC socket on a locomotive does not costs dozens of euros/pounds : just add a socket that costs pennies/cents, redraw slightly the printed circuit board of the locomotive, let a machine solder both on the assembly line, et voilà : cost for the manufacturer 1-2 €/GBP, cost for the customer whatever you want to rip him off. DCC turns to be the greatest swindle when it comes to prices of overall not so complicated electronics.
I won't have to convince you that there is a market for model trains stripped of every conceivable gadgets invented those last 30+ years by the manufacturers as an excuse to supercharge the prices. If you admit that you can get a customer base that don't care about an overdose of detailing and shiny (and pointless too) electronics on board, you can get large tender engines for 50 €/GBP, small ones and tanks for 30 €/GBP, coaches around 15 €/GBP and wagon as low as 5 €/GBP.
By the way, 3D printing would soon becomes to model trains manufacturers what Napster and its P2P follow-on programs had becomes to the music industry. And good luck to sue people printing their rolling stock instead of buying it, especially with prices in the luxury items range...
Thanks, all very good points. I have just bought a Piko Basic loco ,an 0-4-0 tender loco for £40 inc postage, so why is the Hornby 0-4-0 £55?
Wasn't sure if I wanted to watch half an hour of shunting but the time flew by. So much better than seeing trains just go round and round. Loved all the information about how these small stations actually worked. Very informative. Looking forward to the next one!
Thanks for staying with me lol
A much enjoyable video if I ever saw one. Thanks for posting
Love your layout. Could quite happily spend hours watching you shunting your wagons.
Thanks
I have picked up a few tips as I'm building a N gauge lay out so it was a good help with board size for me.
I enjoyed the video and look forward to seeing more of your videos.
We have quite a few videos on N gauge if that helps?
For some more clarification on the box van numbers thing (which depends a bit on the specific era of the layout)
Box vans were mostly used in the following situations:
- The cargo can't get wet.
- The cargo should not get dirty from exhaust or catenary scrapings (which often is the case with car transport which needed specialist equipment anyway)
- The wagon was private property of the factory (did that happen in the UK?)
- The wagon was some kind of specialist vehicle (reefers, horse boxes, heating installations or a Leig unit)
- The vehicle is designed for high speed express goods service, which includes horse boxes
- military trains transporting troops in goods vans
- Cattle transport (cows and other larger animals), these are specialist vehicles with heating installed.
For everything else you used a open wagon, or a specialist vehicle
Have been catching up on some of your videos, and found this one very enjoyable.
Really nice to see a working railway. As nice as it it is to watch trains go by there is much more interest in watching them working. More videos like this would be great. Thank you
Thanks
Certainly one of your best layouts. It'll give me something to think about the next time I build a layout whenever that will be. Plus i picked a Bachmann Branchline 56xx brand new off ebay for £46. Very happy with it.
Bargain at today's silly prices
There is a 4th (?) option for the "left" mainline. You can consider it an interchange track with a-n-other railway. Somewhere a train from staging would reverse in from the left to bring in and drop cars, and your "local" coming from the right would pickup and dropoff cars; as well as serving the yard.
An interesting idea thanks
Wow enjoyed you latest update .Cheers David.
Thanks very much for replying to my comment. It's nice to see other people's work to get idea to improve my layout. Take Care & Stay Safe.
Do like this layout, very relaxing and enjoyable shunting puzzle Eddy xx
Enjoyable video. Thank you.
Nice to you’ve the same enthusiasm as when you started and how the subscribers have grown . Great fun video . Regards fred
Hi Fred thanks, I'm probably more enthusiastic to be honest, it's such a great hobby
Thanks for another great video.
It’s an amazing layout, with so many operational possibilities in such a small area.
Thanks
Thoroughly Enjoyed that Shunting session Mike, much better than watching trains go round and round ALL the time. I've hardly seen a video on shunting on RUclips. Thanks.
Looking forward to more of this.
Cheers,
Michael.
Thanks
Was just thinking this morning we've not seen a video from you guys for ages - love a bit of shunting on a budget 👍
Thanks
Lovely small layout
Thank you, that was excellent and really shows the potential of your layout design!!
Thanks
Bearing in mind that I have no knowledge of the weight of your camera or if there's a roof beam over the layout, I'd suggest a top down/aerial view as an alternative for any future shunting operations. Only on layouts that are bigger than the camera's field of view of course.
Personally I don't mind that I can see you interacting with shunting. A) it's what makes you stand out from the crowd on RUclips, and B) it's literally Hands-on and REAL, in comparison to some of the more heavily edited videos out there that (in my opinion) unfortunately come across as being artificial or sterile in a way.
Stay safe and keep enjoying your modeling, just as much as the rest of us enjoy watching you doing it and having fun along the way.
Hi, another great video,the layout looks awesome,nice manual shunting and different ways of doing it.the terriers are nice engines and work well on the track.
very interesting Mike. Given me some real food for thought about adding some shunting capability into my present layout, which is still at a stage where I can change track plan a bit... many thanks.
Happy to help
Thanks to your guidance, I was able to make by own shunting layout..
Also just a suggestion.. As you have 3d printer, try making Uncouplers and place them at strategic positions so the "Hand of God" issue can get solved..
Glad we could help. After a lot of tries I came to the conclusion that uncouplers are pretty un reliable due to a number of reasons
If i could redo my small layout, it'll be more like yours. Love how operational it is.
Thanks
I find that shunting is one of the joys of operating a model railway. If you will allow me, can I make a suggestion that might give a better flow to your videos. If you have a remote control facility on your movie camera then my suggestion will make it very easy. (if not just manually pause the camera) When shunting use the PAUSE BUTTON on your camera, then while it is paused manually uncouple any wagons and when this is done hit the PLAY BUTTON and resume filming. This process can be repeated with each shunting movement. It might add a few extra minutes to filming, but it will be well worth the effort as it will give you a professional looking video. You can make as many mistakes as you like when the camera is in the PAUSE Mode and no will ever know. Cheers Greg 🚂🚃🚃
I love the size of this layout and all the activity you can do on it. Makes me want to start my first layout again. Great work BMR. Now where is your lighting video??
Great video!!
Thanks
25:39 Poor box van. Don´t worry though, I have faith you will find the one.
great video, the layout is amazing
Thanks
Great idea
Excellent video as always,loads of ideas,brilliant shunting.....the layout is superb!🚂🚂🚂
Thanks
Love this layout keep up the good work on a side note just finished rail car body on class 33chassis looks great on my tracks
Great, can you send us a pic?
Hello Mike,
I am watching your videos from Canada and learned a lot from it. You are the only one who makes things realistic; there is always a story behind every layout you do even the smallest one.
The idea of shunting is perfect as well to make a change than watching trains running.
I have 2 questions;
1-What material can we use for the ground of the parking of the station.
2- I have a layout similar to yours but I inverted the loop the curve to the station side , what is the difference.
Thank you good luck and regards to your son the best camera man in the UK.
Dani
Great to see you back. Love your content
Great to see another video mate 😎 I do like that clerestory coach, and that Terrier is a bargain! Just nice to see how well your layout functions 👍🍀🍻
Nice video Mike. A lot of good shunting movements on your layout.
That little land rover wagon looks lovely, what about an army base harbour layout idea?
Nice running session! I have been inspired to make a layout from you!
Glad we could help, have fun with your layout
@@BudgetModelRailways Great work I have done all the ground work for my model railway
@@BudgetModelRailways I will :)
Hi.
Would love to see an aerial shot of the sidings layout (points etc), or a quick video shot of a pencil sketch instead. I need to work out how to install the wiring as reversing the loco on to a different turn off after the points have been switched means that the power has been cut off to that particular turn off (if you know what I mean). Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Cheers!
If you take a look at the video before this that shows a better view. The switchback sidings simply need a set of power feeds each, if you put a simple on off switch on one wire you can isolate that siding
Brilliant. I do watch all of your videos but the reason I asked for a sketch was so that I could work out the wiring arrangement. However, no need for that now as you have addressed my quandary, thus enabling me to reconstruct my sidings arrangement in similar fashion to your own. Many thanks for your prompt advice, thus saving me from the expense of a packet of aspirins. 😁
P.S. I do love the simple construct of your layout and like you, I am prudent with my spending as I refuse to be held to ransome by the astronomical hike in prices for new locos etc. in the last 2-3 yrs. I'm analogue and always will be. All the best!
Try adding a little weight to the wagons that are bad shunters, doesn't have to be much I use cheap flat fishing sinkers and blue tac to put weight in mine.
Hi there great video you mentioned the possibility of point motors I've started using servos and an arduino it's cheaper than solenoid and no clunk's. The arduino code is copied straight from the Internet (little wicket railway) is a good place to visit or search arduino servo Point
Very nice 🚂😎👍👍👍👍
27:54. Never a truer word said.
Thanks
Excellent video. I would like to do a similar layout to yours. You inspire me. Thank you.
Glad we could help, thanks for watching
Nice shunting display despite the giant human in the background lol I like the land rover on the flat deck wagon was that a airfix kit cheers from Bruce
No it was a die cast one bought cheap years ago, can't remember the make, sorry. They were civvy ones and I repainted them
Thanks for info Mike cheers from Bruce
Besides eBay, what websites would you recommend for buying model trains at affordable prices that ship internationally?
Try Classic Rail, highly recommend
Can I ask where the sound of an idling engine is coming??..is that the printers??
Yes sorry about that
@@BudgetModelRailways I thought you had a novel dc locomotive sound unit!
Is this Terrier an older Hornby model?
Yes it's one of the older ones , but it's an excellent runner
@@BudgetModelRailways I thought it was. I bought an older 'top link' preserved terrier and it's in the post.
Do they run well too with little noise?
@@mattseymour8637 I have a top link one which is also good
@@BudgetModelRailways Nice! Does it run smoothly and fairly quiet?
@@mattseymour8637 smoothly,even over points at a slow speed. Not quite as quiet as a modern loco, but not as bad as an old Airfix one lol. I think you will be pleased with it
