    Lovely to see the Austin FX3 taxis outside the station. One of my cousins drove one when I was a little boy!!

    Glorious station scene with the steam locomotive puffing smoke and hissing as it should when standing.

    Thank you for sharing with so many excellent layouts to see. 👍
    Millhouses and Rainy City particularly caught my attention, as did the 'O' gauge Edinburgh tram.... 🙂

      @MrHz2921 glad you enjoyed the video am not sure about the crane it may have been either scratch built or kit built, I think efe rail are doing a crane which was the abandoned hattons project that looks similar, thanks for watching. Tom

    Some of the most beautiful layouts have wonderful Welsh names!! I wonder if that’s anything to do with the glorious Welsh scenery!!

    Amazing layouts there especially Deadman's lane 00 gauge.

    • @northwesttrainsmodels
      @northwesttrainsmodels  2 месяца назад +1

      Deadmans lane certainly in the top 10 category, really nice layout, always found tmd layouts interesting, nice to see trains moving up and down the yard and also main line trains passing infront

    The diesel shunter on the Appledore layout should be doing a MAXIMUM speed of 15 miles per hour!!

    • @northwesttrainsmodels
      @northwesttrainsmodels  Месяц назад

      @Madonsteamrailways I suppose sometimes they have to speed them up abit if they aren't running smoothly

      It's called Deadmans Lane as it's the view you would get if you walked down the real Deadmans lane to the Etches Park side

    I’ve noticed that every model railway exhibition has at least one American layout. I’m not against American layouts, but I certainly wonder why English modellers choose to replicate American layouts!!

    • @northwesttrainsmodels
      @northwesttrainsmodels  21 день назад

      I suppose some people like to do something different, a few i have spoke to have been on american railways and i suppose want to replicate it, i saw a few i really liked on multi levels with trestle bridges and i also like the swiss mountain railways
