What a wonderful railway Austin. The scenery and sound effects are amazing. You see something knew every time the trains go around the layout. This is a real labour of love- and I loved it too.
I just acquired 'Blanche' and love the little thing! My model railway is very much in its early stages but I hope to get it going soon. Thanks for the video and the inspiration!
@@acw71000 Thanks, here's the layout I just recently completed: ruclips.net/video/BnqrnL3fMnI/видео.html Currently has Blanche and Linda running on it 😎 Cheers
Thanks Bob, 009 enthusiasts are getting spoilt with the wonderful releases from Bachmann. Got the track down and points wired up for a larger layout now!
Hi Matt, yes the layout is named Pen Gwyn. There are a couple of videos of it on RUclips. This was the first one ruclips.net/video/BYNsI_pQC5E/видео.html The layout has changed since that one but if you search for the layout name you should be able to find the others. Thanks for your interest
It's 4' x 2', I used Peco Streamline track but no reason why setrack couldn't be used. It's actually adapted from this setrack layout www.osbornsmodels.com/peco-setrack-oo-plan-5-a-traditional-oval-layout-22352-p.asp

Many thanks Keith, I do love this little layout and I'm currently building a larger version which will hopefully work just as well

You couldn't have chosen a better subject for your layout Austin, superb attention to detail as always.

Superb detail to these models Austin makes you wonder how much better they could possibly get.
It's amazing how they've improved Phil even in the few years I've been modelling. A Garrett would be very nice!
Fabulous locos and what a great layout. Hats off to you and Bachmann.
Thanks for your kind comments
Excellent video Austin. A great layout you have with brilliant scenery. Nice touch with the double header. Best wishes C&A
Thanks, first time I've tried a double header, the pair made a great sound
Superb Austin, looking great double heading and your attention to detail with the scenery is magnificent 👍
Thanks Steve, there are so many products available now to add little details to layouts. A lot different to when I first started modelling
Excellent video, Austin, of your amazing layout. The two FR locomotives fit in very well. Regards, Dave.
Cheers Dave, and all the best for the New Year
A superb video Austin, great layout and great detail,cheers👍
Thanks Nige and all the best for the New Year
Great detail Austin. all the best for new year.
Thanks David, best wishes to you too for 2023
I love your little layout 😍 looking forward to the modern FR variants. Might even tempt me to have a dabble into 009
Thank you. I'm sure Bachmann have plenty of surprises up their sleeve for future models.
Superb!!!! Happy new year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks, same to you too
Looks like a heap of fun . . .
Thanks, it's certainly a heap of something!!
Hi Austin, where did you get the crane in the goods yard from? Love the crane and fantastic jayout
Thanks for watching Howard. The crane is a Wills kit, ref. SS51. I got a little piece of chain from Ebay to finish it off.
These are very intricate models
They are indeed, Bachmann produce some excellent models
Lovely layout. Can you tell me where the black station railings that are next to the phone box are from? Thanks.
Thanks for watching.The railings are by Faller in HO scale, the part number is 180412. Hope you can track them down
Nice done video Austin :)
Thanks Simon, glad you liked it
Does your layout have a name and any page where i can see more pictures and details please?! Thanks
Hi Matt, yes the layout is named Pen Gwyn. There are a couple of videos of it on RUclips. This was the first one ruclips.net/video/BYNsI_pQC5E/видео.html

@@acw71000 Thanks. It's a stunning looking layout. Really love it.
How big is the overall layout please and did you use setrack?
It's 4' x 2', I used Peco Streamline track but no reason why setrack couldn't be used. It's actually adapted from this setrack layout www.osbornsmodels.com/peco-setrack-oo-plan-5-a-traditional-oval-layout-22352-p.asp
"Pen Gwyn".
I see what you did there.
My surname is Whitehead and Pen Gwyn is the name in Welsh...nothing to do with the Batman character!
@@acw71000 So it's just a happy coincidence. :D
Lots of details
It's all in the detail I believe John and so many things are available to us these days to create little cameos
