Es la maqueta más bonita y mejor ambientada que he visto. Además, el sonido es perfecto. It is the most beautiful and best decorated layout I have ever seen. Plus, the sound is perfect.
Really love your videos of your trains. They are so realistic and I think those stone fence around the pastures are awesome. The grass and brush are really great. Everything is so awesome!
The realism of both the visual and audible offerings are as per the standard we have come to know and love. I just love the way you ensnare your viewer and make them become part of the video - excellent thank you.
Dear Mouldy, thank you for the Westcountry branch visit and stunning realism. It’s come such a long way since the initial build. A real pleasure to watch ❤
Nice to see some freight action ! Especially with a pannier tank, an archetype of GWR engines (and one I love, if not on my favorite list with Moguls and 0-6-2). Nice passenger work too !
Morning Lewis, its silly o'clock couldn't sleep, that was a shunting operation the driver and signalman were obviously working well together to make sure that collection worked smoothly. It was great to see the pannier tank doing what he's known for down my way in Devon. As usual a good day's work. Thanks Lewis always look forward to the next one. Eddy xx
Our well-loved and esteemed King of Austria has realized that railway carriage number eleven is wobbling. Something like that could not happen in Austria! Here in Austria everything runs like clockwork!
Great video, Lewis! I see that you have improved your depth of field problems! It looks great! Please do a video on how you do your videos, and show us your equipment -- PLEASE!
Bonjour Lewis, You never fail to amaze us ! Great Wonderful Railway action. Most inspiring and enjoyable. Thanks for sharing ! All the best & greetings, Filip
I remember when I was a kid I had an engine I used to put oil in the chimney and it used smoke the name of the engine was the princess something it was amazing to watch the smoke .
Thank you for this wonderful vid. Brilliantly filmed and put together. The whole layout is a testament to skill and hard work. I just wish I was back there when this was real life.
Brilliant layout and video. Love the sound effects. Well done…your layout is an inspiration to all modellers. Keep up the good work. I look forward to watching more! 👌
The amount of hard work and engineering that went into a setup like this is astounding! I have just one suggestion that would go a long way to increase realism, imagine a system similar to a micro vape setup pulsed to operate in sync with the boilers “audio” output on the steam engine simulating steam!
Mouldy......, your just the Best modelmaker I've seen and whos work Ive been able to value. I am also a modelmaker and love replicating specific models thus do understand some of the amount of work and moreover the skills one requires so to capture a scene and a mood. Itssimilar to a photographers work! To capture and replicate something so authentically is in my mind a real gift!!!!
You really need a couple of Norfolk Southern SD-40s leading a few dozen 4 axial gondola NS coal cars to get the best out of that layout, sir. Seriously, I love your layout and it does remind me of Pennsylvania York, Pennsylvania with some of the buildings. Cheers!
Proof of the skill of YDR drivers and guards. The vans are vacuum fitted but the head code shows they are not connected (‘piped’) to the locomotive. It’s not a heavy train but even so the driver and guard have to know the road (and trust each other!) to pin down breaks for descents and avoid snatches at the beginning of the next bank. Passenger guards have to face drunks and fare dodgers, but goods guards… man, they are a breed apart. And on top of it all, spend their lives on their own at the back. A snatch can throw them right across from front to back of the brake van. Broken bones. Concussion. Even death await them. Not a job for the faint-hearted or inexperienced… and yet every goods guard has to start somewhere!
We got a lift in a brake van one day and no sooner had the guard told us to 'hang on this driver is a right one' he was thrown into the stove and against a desk falling to the floor. The driver had just put on the power and not eased away so the van lurched away at some speed. At our destination he stopped in a similar way causing the van to jolt violently and bounce back to a sudden stop the guard winding the brake on to stop it rolling forwards and backwards. The guard said he was OK but sure must of hurt him. The kettle was held on top of the stove with wire tied round the handle and chimney even so a good bit of scalding water flew out of it. Most drivers were gentle on the power and brake but that one sticks in my mind.
@@cedarcam Great witness testimony 👍. I think footplate crew and goods guards were ‘breeds apart’: totally different career paths for starters and footplate crew always working together and guards alone. Even held in loops, the guard waiting for a passing passenger train chose to stay in his brake van where we lads would chat with him. The walls of the brake were sticky yellow probably tarred up a bit by smoke from the stove. Not a bad ‘office’ stood still but with the driver you describe and a switchback road… pretty hellish. Yet the rules are clear: guards are in charge of the train, not drivers! That driver should have shown more consideration and respect!
@@stephensmith799 Yes they were very different or breeds apart as you say. As a trainee we had no van to get us out on maintenance so unbelievably, looking back today, we used the bus or got a freight train to stop and give us a lift. Some drivers said get in the brake some get in the rear cab and best of all some said to ride up front with them. You could see the difference in the way some drove and were friendly whilst others were not so gentle. If they had ridden in a brake van they would perhaps think again, even with a gentle start on a long unfitted freight the van gave a jolt as it began to move. Many find it strange when you tell them the guard is in charge and still applies today where they have them. It makes sense though as the guard is the one who historically applied brakes and checked things were loaded correctly before allowing the train to depart, so is buried deep in the railways history. Overall they were happy days and to most the railway was like a huge family until privatisation. We would get help from each other in those days.
@@cedarcam It is great to hear the voice of experience. Thanks, Although it is strange, I can just about cope with automated train control eg the Victoria Line and parts of the Elizabeth Line. But I can’t accept being on trains that have no Guard. The scope for offences is very great and we definitely need Guards to keep us safe. There was a Guard on South Western with a great name badge. It read ‘Daniel Gooch’! I said he had a ‘great name for a railwayman!’ He explained that SWT had ‘ordered guards to wear name badges. However, when I asked “does it HAVE to be my name?” the guy checked his instructions and admitted that it didn’t say anything about that. So I decided on “Daniel Gooch”!’ Some RUclipsrs won’t know that Daniel Gooch was the GWR’s brilliant chief mechanical engineer who was designing locomotives that could exceed 60mph from 1837 while still in his ‘twenties! IK Brunel’s locos were failures because of his obsession with low piston speeds. They were big and feeble monstrosities. The joke was that Brunel’s locos needed double-heading even running light. … doubtless a bit of an exaggeration! Many ex Railway staff at all levels have explained in detail why Major’s privatisation of the railway was an expensive disaster, but made a few individuals very wealthy very quickly. The system is a dog’s dinner.
@@stephensmith799 It saddens me that all the old boxes are closing and the huge operations centres are taking over, but I always say the railway has to progress we cannot have the biggest heritage railway in the world. It was a strange feeling the first time I went by Eurostar not seeing any signals once we joined HS1 and the next signal we passed outside Brussels. Automated control could be used all over the railway but there should always be someone who can take control and someone to assist in evacuation, the idea of Glasgow's subway running with no staff at all is scary. Docklands is fully automated but there is someone on the train to deal with anything that may go wrong Yes Guards are very important and certainly should be kept on all trains. That was a great idea by the guard. Before St Pancras became the international station it is today many records were kept under the station in the beer cellars, these were moved to the National Records Group and one day we were shown round, they had pulled out some of the historic drawings of bridges viaducts tunnels and some buildings amongst them were some drawn by or signed by the great engineers Danial Gooch, I K Brunel and George Stevenson. I could of spent hours in there looking at documents. I said at the time Network Rail could make money out of having some of these available to view on line Model makers and historians would pay good money to access things like that. It is a shame we did not get Brunel's broad gauge as standard gauge, Imagine what the trains would be like today if that had happened, there would be hardly anything the railways could not carry and speeds would be higher with the stability. Even back then Brunel had demonstrated how smooth his trains were compared to the 4'8 1/2'' ones. As for his locos yes I read they were under powered. Running the railways since privatisation has cost far more than it ever did under BR The public were conned into thinking it would be more efficient and cheaper. Everything became so fragmented it made even a simple job into a long drawn out procedure. With BR there were a lot of things wrong but a lot of very good things as well. The idea of Network Rail taking more of the operation is a good one. At first Railtrack only owned the track and signalling and it was contractors who maintained things, there were a lot of problems and two major accidents which brought about big changes as Network Rail was formed and brought the maintenance in house again
Hi Lewis, this shunting operation is an integral part of any railway operations and yours was done with much realism. Cheers Greg
Thanks Greg 👍🏻
Es la maqueta más bonita y mejor ambientada que he visto. Además, el sonido es perfecto. It is the most beautiful and best decorated layout I have ever seen. Plus, the sound is perfect.
Gracias por hacernos niños en estos minutos que dura esta video,gracias😊
Those you enjoyed it 😀
Really love your videos of your trains. They are so realistic and I think those stone fence around the pastures are awesome. The grass and brush are really great. Everything is so awesome!
Thanks very much, glad you enjoy them!
The best scenery, sound, weathering, lighting and filming of a layout I have witnessed and enjoyed. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Nick 👍🏻
Ну просто как настоящие, красиво и интересно. Это моя тема,я всегда любил железнодорожный транспорт и макеты железной дороги. Мне 66.
The realism of both the visual and audible offerings are as per the standard we have come to know and love. I just love the way you ensnare your viewer and make them become part of the video - excellent thank you.
Thank you Peter!
Wonderful and amazing! Thank you for sharing your creation!

Thank you 😀
Nice - Very nice, well done, nice to see realism for a change.
Thank you 👍🏻
Lovely to see the humble Pannier open the video and then do a bit of shunting. Great stuff.
Thanks Tim 👍🏻
Love Pannier tanks Mr Mouldy. This one was very busy. Cracking engines. Got Accurascale Manor on order.
Thanks John - they look like they’ll be great!
Very nice job with the sound.
Thanks Bill 👍🏻
Awesome!!! The sound suits perfect to all driving situations!
Well done!!!

What a great video Lewis ,a pannier working a goods & finishing with a grange in charge of a passenger working .Top marks .
Thanks Steven!
Excellent model as well as excellent filming! Your trees are wonderful! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks 😀
Its hard to believe this is a model! So well done!
Thank you!
It’s not that hard bro lol, but yes very well done.
Absolutely stunning piece of work. Looks and sounds so real. Simply amazing.

Thanks Olivier - glad you liked the pannier!
Wow lew absolutely beautiful pal
Thanks bud
This layout and the realistic operation both deserve a price.
Thank you 👍🏻
Wow! Got to be the 1st time I've seen someone model the interlocking rods from the signal box! Beautifully detailed layout! Thanks for sharing w/us!
Thank you 😀
What does, it cost 2 build a model railway like this.very interesting.
awesome 👏
Thanks!

Bravo!
Thanks 😀
Wieder ein sehr schönes Video
Danke 😀
Hi Lewis . Great to see a bit of shunting alongside some passenger work with a G.W.R. theme, well done mate nice one.
Thanks Tony 👍🏻
I would love to see you deliver one train and then pick up another ❤
That’s one for next time 😀
Wow nice video
Thanks!
Another look into a colorized moment of a history known only in black and white! Great video, Lewis!

Wait you made this layout!?
That’s amazing!
I’m new here and you have caught my interest.
Thank you 😀
Music to my ears. What's not to love about God's Wonderful Railway?
I agree!
A masterpiece. Probably, costs a fortune?
Thanks! It can do, a lot of things you can get second hand to save some money.

Always a bugger to get Kadee couplings the right heights isn't it?😂
Yep it’s such a pain to get them right 🤣
@@MouldyRaspberry feeeeel your pain my dude 🤣
There was good time that steam engine was operating with the same noise on narrow gauge from Mari Indus to Bannu Pakistan.which now discarded.

I'm pretty sure the Yorkshire dales are not in the West Country lol...but wow what a beautiful model railway thought...kudos
You my friend, have genius level IQ.
@@MouldyRaspberry thanks 😊 Einstein has nothing on me lol
@@MouldyRaspberry oh and by the way, I really loved the sound effects! I thought they were a really good touch!
With my myopia, I thought the title was “A Wet Country Branchline”

Proof of the skill of YDR drivers and guards. The vans are vacuum fitted but the head code shows they are not connected (‘piped’) to the locomotive.

lovely job Lewis ! love from Wales 😍😍🎥🎥 what is going on at 3:33 camping ? are these new additions , I haven't noticed them before ?
Thank you! They’ve been there a few months but I don’t always get them in shot 🤣
😍😍😍😍😍
Thanks 👍🏻
How long did it take for you to build you layout?
This smaller layout took a couple of months
In which country we can see this railway. Is it available now.
UK 👍🏻
Nice.which country
UK 👍🏻
What’s the hammering noise at 0:38?
Is that something going on in the fiddle yard?
Probably me bashing around in the background
Would have loved to see a toad father than a NE van. And the aecond whistle was LMS
I still haven’t got round to adding a coupling to the other end of that brake van
Amazing ❤🚂❤ Love from => Train Lover Himu
