A short video showing train movements on the C&DR, the movement book which guides them and the way the goods rolling stock tags are used to determine the movement of individual wagons. The movement book is a flip-over book which is a copy of the movement table compiled from the time/distance diagram. The goods stock tags are tiny steel washers painted in colour codes determining the destination station, with white dots determining the siding the wagon goes to. Some stock is always treated as express goods and has to be tacked on to the first available train. More information on operation can be found here: www.009dutch.nl...

Finally an 009 layout that does not only look spectacular, but also with good running engines and well layed track. Thank you Ted, it was a pleasure to watch the video
Remember reading about this as railway of the month in Rly Modeller,years ago.Nice to have an extensive, narrow gauge railway which operates like 'the big railway '!
Scenery: fantastic. Operations: excellent. Steam engines run beautifully and efficiently. Very well done.
Magnifca maqueta ferroviaria hasta el más fino detalle. Felicitaciones. Congratulation.
Oh my. god ive just stumbled upon this! I remeber this layout fron when I was nine from a copy of 009 im now 33 this layout was awesone in black and white never mind colour film!
Thanks very much - the tender loco was built using a Chivers Hudswell Clarke kit (the Queensland sugar cane loco). The chassis is eight-coupled rather than six-coupled. It is a tender driven Fleischmann N gauge loco.
Just discovered your channel. Your layout is absolutely gorgeous! I don't think I've ever seen a layout that more completely transported me to another time and place. Brilliant!
Thanks - an illusion is what I have been after all that time.
Another beautiful video of your amazing railway, *subscribed*
I love your switch levers they too look so real !
Thanks, John - sorry I only read this after a week. To answer your question, the passenger arrives from Dunalistair, then waits in the up platform for the branch mixed to come in. This proceeds on to the main line, then backs into the down platform. Passengers can transfer using the footbridge at the far end. The access from the road to the station is by a narrow passage between the goods shed and the station building. In some cases a branch train will wait behind the station building.
Nice remote switching operation.
Enjoyed it very much.
Thx,
Dorian
Absolutely superb! A great model well operated
I'm almost speechless, Lovely video, wonderfully detailed layout, very nice railway!
This vid needs more likes n views so Share it!
thats a big and lovely layout - wish i could own something like that!
love the steamies ~
Thanks, all, for your kind replies!
Wonderful as always to see your layout in operation Ted, still want to know when you are going to bring all of it to Expo-NG?
Hi Ted,
What scale is this?
If you can add sounds to your locos, it'll add another dimension of pleasure.
Beautiful work you've done.

Thanks - the scale is 1:76 and the track gauge 9mm. This scales out at 2 ft 3 ins (675mm) narrow gauge.
Since the trains run on analog control and they are very small, adding sound is impossible without rebuilding them all. Instead I make videos, which I add synchronised sound to.
I hope that answers your questions.
Ted
Would have liked to see the toastrack moving. It reminds me of the MER
Excellent video Ted. I assume that the passenger train waits for the mixed at Rae Bridge so that passengers can transfer. Is there access for passengers from the goods yard (or wherever the mixed arrives) to the passenger platform?
This an absolutely stunning layout and i enjoy the operations very much- Thank you.
Ps what are the layouts dimensions and what kit is the Tender loco?
What a lovely model railway. I first found the website and then came across these videos! Your an amazing model maker! will you be uploading more videos of your locos, like your freelance engine Lucky Luke?
Thank you - I won't promise anything about Lucky Luke, but I will keep it in mind!
The coach at centre screen at 09:39. I've seen a couple low sitting carriages like this but have no idea where to find a kit or what's it's basis is. Can anyone tell me?
There is no kit for this coach. It is an overscale model of a Ffestiniog Railway 'bug box' - in 4mm scale these are much smaller than my model, which is closer to 5.5mm scale. In 4mm scale (009) there are kits available from Dundas Models, kit number BB06.
What is this for a lokomotive whitch came with the long train?
Thanks - I'm afraid taking all of it to Expong is out of the question. It would take two days to set up.
Really great - How do you control your points?
+Nick Troth
Thanks, Nick - point and signal control is a mix of mechanical control (wire in tube and mechanical lever frames) and electrical, using a capacitor discharge unit. You will find more information on the C&DR website - search for Craigcorrie on the web.
Wonderfull
