Hi Mark. You have done James proud using his ballast vacuum attachment. I've emailed James to let him know. Just a thought a link in the description to Bexhill West video of the sales video might help those who are interested in purchasing this very useful tool.
I've also started to upload a few videos starting off with little ones.

[@DonegalDadRail]

Thanks Dinmore, I have added a link to James's channel and his sales website. Will catch up on your videos.

Hello Mark, great video and i will definitely look into using aquarium gravel thank you. I love the ballast hoover very effective 👍

[@DonegalDadRail]

Thanks Deano. Glad it was helpful! I got the gravel in Pets at Home.

Nice work, Mark. I found those paint markers very frustrating when they had the soft felt points. Hard felt has come in and works much better.

[@DonegalDadRail]

Thanks Anthony will have to look out for the harder tips.

Hey Mark. Some nice work on the track ballasting and weathering. It's something that I should have really considered more and done before I ballasted my track originally. But hindsight is a wonderful thing as they say. Oh well. All the best. Mark.

Thanks Mark, Always learning how to do things better, thats why a model railway is never finished lol.
