Hello David, I just wanted to let you know that you and Richard from Everard Junction have been an inspiration to me to "attack" a new hobby. I am close to 70 years old but have already purchased and built multiple buildings. I do not have too much space in the apartment in which I live, so at the moment I have concentrated on a diorama. Hopefully next year I will find space for a 160 * 90 cm n scale layout. So thank you again for inspiring me.
Hi Ian. It is wonderful to think that I have been an inspiration to you and that you are attacking a new hobby. I feel very proud that the work I do on Dean Park is useful to modellers new and old. Thanks so much for getting in touch, good luck with your diorama's and please keep in touch. Cheers. Dave
Good job on the detail. We used to climb on the building sites as kids. They looked just like your model. We'd even jump off onto the sand. I have finally started my WWI layout.
Fantastic attention to detail as always. You are an inspiration to many modellers or would be modellers. The scaffolding on your building site is at risk of collapse however, as there is no cross bracing on the structure. Unable to visit Warley this year but will make sure I am able to attend in 2019. Keep up the good work.
A great honour for you Dave from Warley, and it's well deserved. After watching this latest production from you, it re-enforces my previous comments as to the fact that Dean Park will stand up to any layout built to the required Warley standard...Congratulations on all counts...Bob
Welcome as a member to the club David, we look forward to working with you in the future and hope to see you at one of our open days next year if not the exhibition
Hi, thank you. Deeply honoured to be in the Warley club, it really is great. I will keep in touch with Andy and see if I can fly down to your open day, if not I hope to return to Warley in 2019...I will certainly be making it a regular visit when I can. Thanks. Dave
Great update Dave and really nice to meet you at warley love the 47 looks bang on well have a great xmas from all of us at Tinsley tmd take care and enjoy your modelling cheers Dave
Very enjoyable video Dave. The layout is looking super as always! Shame i missed out on Warley this year, gutted! Still kicking myself now. Dave McWilliams is a mind of info and has provided valuable info on Exeter St David's station and some interesting loco that will make an appearance next year. A worthy shout out! Time to start the scenics on mine now - 1 year on from starting 😁
Hi Dave, the building site detail is very good. 2 suggestions, 1,move the portaloo to a more discrete area, 2 sprinkle a little of your real sand on the top of the dumpy aggregate bags. It is looking so professional. Barry.Devon.
The new houses building site looks very good. There are a couple of things though that are not quite right. The Portacabins would be sat on flags to stop them sinking in The mud, as would the steps. Also, the Forklift truck wouldn't be on there. They are designed to work on hard standing. On ground like that it would stuck in mud and unable to lift safely. You need a long jib four wheel steer Cat truck. Sorry if all this sounds perdantic!
Nice update, and your layout is awesome. Maybe it's silly, but your real estate advertisement sign is fantastic. I have had to make so many custom signs myself, I admire the work.
Another excellent up date Dave, watching the building site, the fork lift might struggle to get around the site. I have seen JCB's with drop down folk blades which are stored above the front bucket & kept in position when not in use by a couple of large pins. The 47 super looking loco have to check out ABC.
Dave I missed warly this year due to ill health, so spent my lotment on line. but still bought dB 08 and 67 and 3 sound chips tts for my outer 2 that dont have sound dont know to change me nick name to Pete class 67 as with arivers manger trainne and ews but as my geting large colection along with me 47 ,57 60, 70 class.. Nice vidio off you at hattons and richard at evarard juntion good quality work as allways pete.
Great as work as always Dave. Just an idea for your construction site. Not sure about your job sites over there but here in Australia most job sites will have a shade a cloth with a builders company stamped across it on their temporary fencing. I was thinking maybe you could run some sort of temp fence with make shift shade cloth across the back of the site just to sort of hide the transition of the brown dirty construction site into the green grassy back drop. Just an idea anyway, love your work as always mate. Keep the updates coming
Wow, very interested in 47641, was my last 47 for sight, seen at Glasgow Central! Planned to model this one myself, of interest I think it spent more time at Inverness! If your contact would like to produce another 47641 i'd happily provide the crispy notes and doner 47! Keep up the good work, im constructing an 80's scottish layout but not to your standard!
Hi Dave, always loved your videos, as usual very detailed and informative on your methods, my only concern with the building site is the forklift isn't a site fork but a warehouse fork, hope you don't mind me saying , loved the trench work with banksman
Congratulations on becoming a life time warley member love the videos keep up the fantastic work you and everhard junction have really inspired me to get back into the hobby with my 8year old son thankyou Also how much to buy one of your four bedroom new builds as they are ideal for train spotting 😊😂
The Bachmann nuclear flask wagon is great... however the one you have is a little too modern because it has the numbers written on top (these weren't there in the period you model in) and it has OHLE warning flashes. However, it's an easy fix. Use some IPA or T-cut to rub off the numbers from the roof, and spray some matt varnish over the top. I use the same technique in this video, with the exception that I painted the varnish on because it's a small area.
I knew it was on the cusp of being out of era....I might remove the numbers as you said. It will be getting weathered at some point too. will check out that video! Cheers.
@@DeanPark These two are worth a watch too. Perhaps they'll inspire you to do a little renumbering of your stock for Scottish specific locos/coaches? After all, you're a competent modeller and you have the skills to use an airbrush! :^) ttps://ruclips.net/video/Vey7-nnWDb8/видео.html ruclips.net/video/fkzQ9gsxklE/видео.html
Hi Dave I thought you might like to know I have made some progress on my laout today I have repland some of my track work so hopefuly more progress will be on the way in the not to distant future I will enclose some shots of it on facebook
Hi Figures are Bachmann Scenecraft. The buildings are also scenecraft but they are currently not in the Bachmann catagloue..they will appear again! Ebay has them from time to time. Cheers. Dave
Looking good. I can't wait to see you start work on your TMD. One question though, do you think you will weather the boards on your scaffolding and the wooden blocks under the scaffolding on your building site scene?
Dave, I like it. Are your portakabins made of plastic or card. I have tried the card ones and I don't think theyre very realistic, however yours look brilliant. Where did you get them, please.
Hi, they are knightwing kit. You can get them from the knightwing website or expressmodels.co.uk. They aint cheap but they are certainly the best I have seen. cheers. Dave
Hi, I have some weathered ones, including the new 47 showcased in this video. I also have some wagons and tankers weathered. However there are two reasons I do not currently weather my own locos... 1) I don't have that skill yet and 2) at around £140-160 a model I don't want to screw up the weathering and ruin an expensive model lol. Cheers. Dave
DaveClass47 Thanks Dave, I’m thinking the same! I’d be scared to ruin any of them! Your skills are brilliant and the layout is one I really aspire to I watch every video you make for hints and tips. Keep up the good work!
hi, yeah its an expensive think to ruin with poor weathering! I have another Q&A video coming early next week, then a special video, followed by a Christmas Running session in the days running up to Christmas day, then another update video (if I have anything done on the layout lol) coming at the end December. So plenty to keep you going lol. Cheers Dave
The Scotsman is only on it as its a friends sons first model train! Its not there for accuracy. Its just a clip showing action at Hope Park Junction, not Dean Park.

Thanks Dave, glad you like it! Turned out well. Fab layout too

Very very beautiful scene this building site!!! A great lot of fine details!! The sign Dean Park Estate is awesome! I love it! Cheers Onno.
The building scene looks fantastic. The extra detail on the loco was well done.
Building site looks great! Could imagine some good shots of trains emerging around 6:40
I love your building site.
The 47 is fantastic that's a lovely loving loco great video Dave 👍
Another excellent video.
Very nice Dave, I love the new sign for the sale of the houses, keep up the good work,
Dave, just noticed after years of driving past it that there is a small village called Deans Park just outside Dunkeld just off the Highland Line
Excellent update, love the construction scene. Gutted I didn't catch you at the Warley show. Looks like you got some great purchases!
Joe
As always a great update, attention to detail is fantastic Cheers Matt

Great overall update and great work on the 47.
Great review. Just seen this one. Love the Dean park estate hoarding. A bit of cameo humour in there!

Wonderful video, depicting one of the great layouts on RUclips......Congrats Cheers Greg
Great to meet you David at the show, forgot to get you to sign my magazine
Great video Dave. That work on the Class 47 is amazing, I might use them in the future. Keep up the great work!
Nice update, and your layout is awesome. Maybe it's silly, but your real estate advertisement sign is fantastic. I have had to make so many custom signs myself, I admire the work.
Hello layout looking fab keep up the great work.Love the 47 great job.Cheers.
Dave yet another interesting video with more great ideas keep up the great work

Great Video. Jealous of your new 47, coming from Fife born and bread myself. 😊
Hi Dave,
Enjoyable watch as always thanks
Would you show a link to the UK D & E site you mentioned please
Cheers
A wonderful watch as always Dave, maby that flickering fire could go outside a scale model factory as they burn next year's release catalogue.... ;-)
Congratulations on becoming a life time warley member love the videos keep up the fantastic work you and everhard junction have really inspired me to get back into the hobby with my 8year old son thankyou

Super job on the building site Dave, it looks really good. Would the lit bonfire be the finishing touch?
Hi Dave. The building site looks great. May I ask where you get the figures and buildings from?. Cheers.
Hi Figures are Bachmann Scenecraft. The buildings are also scenecraft but they are currently not in the Bachmann catagloue..they will appear again! Ebay has them from time to time. Cheers. Dave
Looking good. I can't wait to see you start work on your TMD. One question though, do you think you will weather the boards on your scaffolding and the wooden blocks under the scaffolding on your building site scene?
Hi, I will get around to it.
Another great video, just one question, why do your trains jump forward as they go along ? Or is it my IPad?
Hi, Jump forward? I dont think they do.....think its your ipad? Or go easy on the wine? lol Dave
Just watched it again and it did not do it this time,must be my Pad.!
Dave, I like it. Are your portakabins made of plastic or card. I have tried the card ones and I don't think theyre very realistic, however yours look brilliant. Where did you get them, please.

Thanks Dave
Fife region 47 looks awesome.
Need to get myself one of those 😉
What make is the forklift ?
Hello Dave, I just wondered why you don’t weather any of your locos? Is it just personal preference? Thanks
Hi, I have some weathered ones, including the new 47 showcased in this video. I also have some wagons and tankers weathered.

How much are those new homes going for Dave :)
1988 prices? about 50k for a 3 bed! lol
If doing 1980s is the Scotsman in right livery
