Brilliant video well produced. Thanks
Excellent video, nice selection of layouts
Outstanding video. Thanks for sharing. Dave
Lovely footage Simon, I particular like the Class 76 DC voltage. My dad rushed me around Greater Manchester to get the numbers before they were scrapped. (Showing my age now)
These are some nice layouts you've found at the Macclesfield exhibition Cyber. :)
I was running 'Smethurst Junction' layout by Hazel Grove that weekend. Was a good exhibition must say, pudding was the best food of course haha.
Where’s the spoken intro? Great video and footage just missing the presenter. Thank you. Sim.
Funny you mentioned that, I have been thinking about adding myself at the start of the video for a while after watching a RUclipsr from Australia. Great suggestion and I give it a go at the next event.
