- I'm back.
The video pretty much explains where I've been and why, so please do watch it and I hope it answers many, if not all of your questions. If not, as ever, don't hesitate to get in touch.
And thank you,
Will

You don’t have to justify yourself to us will honestly you have had to deal with stuff like anyone does so you are fine buddy and the rubbish that you have gone through
You don’t have to justify to us mate we all deal with things like this!!!!
Do what you want mate !!!!
Im sure i can say this for everyone it’s brilliant to have you back.
Good to see you back can’t wait to see what is coming up in the future !!! x
You didn't need to make this video.
Couldn't agree more this channel got me into trains and mis the uploads randomly had this on my feed and so happy to see a video from this amazing person
Will,
I have lost nearly all of my family members and I'm still a teen. I know just how it feels. Stay strong mate.
@Jessica Clark your kind
Holy crap dude. Wow I’m really sorry to hear about that. Hope things work out for you.
Jessica Clark Very thoughtful thing to say .... NOT!
Same here I’m 13 lost both sets of grandparents and great uncle
I lost my nan and Aunt 3 years ago just 3 days apart. It's tough and its important to keep going and not let depression take over. I did and its horrible. Keep fighting Creeper.
Glad to see you back, Sorry to hear about your relatives dying, and your accident, sending my deepest condolences! Still watching the video now but I hope you have the strength you need to carry on!
I only lost my grandad last year it is coming up to a year. I understand how it goes. Hope things get better for you.
Same here, just with my grandmother.
Ewan's Trains and Buses my papa died in January this year but when you know someone is dying it is worse than once they are gone but it feels terrible
Good to hear you're back Will. I know it can be tough sometimes in life but as long as you have that thing to distract you or make you happy it's okay. Same happened when my Nan died back in 2013. Looking back I remember watching railway videos and your videos as a comfort and distraction. Come to think of it, you have been one of the first RUclips channels I've watched since 2012, back when I was 11. Ever since you've been gone I've fallen out of the hobby now and my locos have been in a box ready to sell on ebay. Now I'm 18 and moving to University, I'll be happy to remember the good old times with your videos once again. All the best for you and your family (and children out there).
(P.S. let me know if you want any of the locos for a discounted price when I sell them in future)
(P.P.S Thank you for still being subscribed to me ever since we met at the Bluebell Railway all those years ago)
Thoughts and prayers go out to you man! I really have a love for your content and am devastated to hear about your past year. Just wanted to let you know what an inspiration you have been to me since the early days. Your videos have definitely helped me through some hard times in my life so hopefully this platform can return the favor.

As far as getting back into the hobby, the hatton’s P class is excellent, I have a real soft spot for the pre-grouping green, the new oxford die cast railgun seems like something you would have fun with as well! Hang in there
Hey, your story inspires me. This was the first youtube channel I got hooked on in 2013-2017 and I am now about to turn 16. I have much admiration for you and the struggles you have endured. I just wanted to say thankyou from Australia.
Will, I'm so, so very sorry. I can't believe you had to go through all that. No one should have to deal with that. I really am sorry, and I can speak for everyone watching this video, we are all behind you. We all wish you the best of luck from here on out. Thanks for giving us an update.
Spooky, I only checked in on the channel yesterday and re subbed in anticipation of your return someday. Glad to see you back.
Times can be hard, but try to focus on the good!
Love to hear you say you are returning to this as a hobby and not a business, this is what RUclips is really about, authentic channels like this. Looking forward to your future videos.
I respect your decision to return given everything you have faced, Will. Your steely determination to continue with the unfinished projects is an example to us all. Stay strong, live the dream and have fun with the hobbies you do. I'm glad you have returned but I wish it was in better light... I've watched literally every one of your videos from the start... I know how much it means for you to help those families with your donations and the joy it must bring.
I look forward to seeing many more IC82 uploads soon as they were always the highlight of a bad day for me
I fully understand your losses and problems im sorry for you.
even if you quit model railways and trains i know in my heart you will always be my favourite childhood model railway channel i grew up with
Hello Will,
I'm so sorry to hear about your recent losses and your health. It hurts like hell when you lose people that are so close to you, and there is no quick way around grief, it can and does suddenly and for no reason smack you in the face and you think OMG why am I feeling like this, the smallest of things trip you up and may make you want to cry then cry, but don't try to stop it .
In 2017 I lost my sister very suddenly and without any warning and I still I don't get why she's gone. But the one thing that has helped was getting back into the hobby and it's guys like you and the other U Tubers that have helped to fill a horrible void.
So with a huge thanks Will to you. Take things easy and I am looking forward to more videos.
I’ve been watching your channel since about series three or four, and although I’m an American you’ve still massively influenced my love of the beautiful trains of England. You are stronger than you think my friend, and you have a huge community that you have created that is here to support you.
Don't worry will you don't need to do all of this I've lost 3 of my family members aged 13 but we need to move on and keep on going with life never give up mate
So sorry you lost 3 family members at a young age.
Great to see you back and even better that you are alive. No need to apologise for things that happen in life. This is a hobby and we as your fans will be here regardless on how often you produce videos. Sorry to hear of the life items you have had to deal with and frankly its been terrible. Take care of yourself first and foremost bud. Take care and all the best. Clint
This video had me crying. Ever since I was little, Iv'e always had an interest in trains. I remember getting my first ever train set from Hornby and it was the GWR Cargo and Passenger set that you've reviewed. Then I stubled across your channel. Not because of the video of the train set I had, if anything, I saw that many years later. I ended up getting the Bachmann Class 220 3 car train set because of your Class 221 mini series you made.
I have never said this and meant it so much that you are my favourite RUclipsr. I have been in and out of the model railway hobby and have as a result, been in and out of watching your videos. I even noticed I had been unsubscribed from you! I did subscribe as soon as I noticed that! All I want to say is that you're the RUclipsr I have literally watched since around the Class 221 mini series.
I love your spirit, your strength, determination, entertainment value and just your personality. Keep on going strong, life has ups and downs but there is always light at the end of the tunnel!
It’s great to have one of my favourite RUclipsrs back. Your enthusiasm for model railways got me into the hobby. 😊
I suffer from depression and talking about it is very hard for me, I see some of me in you. The waves knock me off my feet and it’s a real struggle to get back up again at times. Seeing you back is a big plus.
Welcome back! We've missed you!
We all feel for you, man. Life happens, and that's just how it is. I'm glad that you fought through it all, it's great to see you again after so long.
Sorry to hear about your rough go of it. Loved ones passing away is probably the worst part about reaching middle age. Glad you are back though and look forward to the upcoming videos!
It's like magic, ever time I watch a new video from Will I am inspired to look further into railway modelling. I have all the equipment sitting in my shed for 2 years now and still havent started.
Sorry about your losses and difficulties, and it's great to see you back. I find my model railway, dog and music help me through the hard times until the light at the end of the tunnel finally appears.
Glad to see you are doing okay, I'm happy you had time with friends to recover and it's great that you're going back to making train videos.
Looking forward to your videos.
Hey will/IC82, it's great to see you still going at it and you're back continuing your hobby. Just a few weeks ago I just remembered the whole adoption process ordeal and rewatching your videos just made me feel happy that even though you're going through somestuff that seeing you look so hopeful and happy to even clear out your shed for the model railway village layout. It really makes me feel relieved that life seems to be looking bright and I can't wait to see what you do next but even though people may be gone and it feels bad just reflect how they have made you grow as a person. P.S. CONGRATULATIONS!
I admire your strength, your will and your determination to not let life hold you back. I wish you the best of luck for the future and want you to know your subscribers are here to support you through it all. All the best.
Good to see ya back. It was great to watch your videos when I was about 6-7... Jeez. It’s been that long? About 8 years which is pretty insane. I still remember begging my mother to get me some hornby trains. Living in the USA, that’s hard. Fortunately I got my hands on a used Flying Scotsman and just thought of this channel. Good to see you can still laugh and stay strong with what’s happened. That’s an amazing achievement. Stay awesome,
Nate
It's good to see you back Will, I lost my dad, Nan and uncle in 2017 so I understand the endeavour you have endured and send my full condolences to you and Craig, however congratulations to you for your channels 10th anniversary and becoming a dad
What a year! Damn!!! Tough ain't gonna cover it. Like I've said to Everard Juncton, DaveClass47 and New Junction particularly, trains are your hobby, keep it that way, keep the funny and enjoyment, it should have be a business, a chore, or filling the "demands" of the viewer. I like many watch because we want to share the hobby, to be part of the ride, not to scream "where's the next video" blah blah blah. Yeah some will complain etc, but first and foremost, it's your hobby, enjoy it.
Couldn't agree more with what u said
Welcome back, Will! Indeed it's been a year since we last saw or heard from you! i totally feel ya for losing family members you love and others you treat like their part of your family. I've experienced both ways personally. Also, Happy 10th Birthday to IC82! May many more years of this wonderful model train channel await for you and all of us to enjoy! In addition, congrats on becoming a father biologically! That's something to be extremely proud of! On top of that, we're all grateful that you are returning to the hobby of model trains and we'll be all on the lookout for new reviews, tutorials, specials, and many more new videos of model train entertainment! Welcome Back Aboard, Will!
Oh man, this really hit home.
My Nan on my mother's side died when I was a baby, so I never really knew her. My Nan on my Dad's side was the only Nan I really had. She passed away in 2006 while I was deployed to Iraq with the army. Missing her funeral was bad enough, but having to spend so long keeping it out of my mind to get on with the job was even worse. The delayed grief was so difficult to cope with. My family kept the ashes so we could cast them into the sea after I got home, that really helped with closure.
My condolences on your loss, hopefully you feel better soon though. Grief has a way of turning from mourning a loss to remembering the good times with that person instead, given time.
Will, I am so relieved to see that you're doing okay. In your last few videos from about a year ago, I was incredibly concerned about how you were, thank you so much for sharing your thoughts. It's not easy to do something like that, especially on the internet, which can be unfair at best. Continue to be strong.
And massive respect for keeping your word with returning those models, by the way!
...Oh, and the new Hornby Terrier might make an interesting subject for a video. Just a thought.
Your only obligation is to your happiness. We are sorry that you've had to deal with so much and send our condolences. My grandfather died 43 years ago, and I miss him this minute. Just glad to see you up and about. Wishing you the best to come. Congrats, we guess, on the origination of a life. 😄 And should you decide to get into trains again, we'll happily watch.
I'm glad you're back. I was worried about your disappearance . I'm very sorry to hear about your loss, my heart goes out to you.
Good on you mate, I feel your emotions myself, been in the same situation on many of them. You are a great guy, and I like to think a friend if only through youtube. Onward and upward Will, You still have the good memories of what has passed, but you have to carry on. You have my support all the way, and if you ever need any help give me a shout mate, you are a top guy and I respect you for coming through all the bad times, a little scarred but still intact and functioning. Love you Will xxx.
I am really sorry about your loss. Sending love to you x It is okay to take a break and come back to normal. If you want to take a real and come to Thailand, you are welcomed to stay with us! Your channel has inspired me in past years.
Big love
Patt from Thailand 🇹🇭
I lost my Grandad just before Christmas last year to kidney cancer, I think there is a lot of people watching this video and in the comments who can relate to something like this and everybody will go through at some point, as you mentioned I do a lot of mountain biking and it truly does help with this kind of thing as it keeps you active and it's hard to think about anything other than what is coming up on the trail. In my opinion it's the best sport and helps a lot with stress and everyday life. I hope you are doing alright now and I send you my best wishes to you and your family. All storms have to pass at some point, please take as much time as you need to recover and do what you want to feel better. Again, we all give our best wishes to you Will, and good luck for the future.
We are glad you are back you needed time to yourself and to feel comfort again you decide when you need a break and when you upload. Glad to see you back on RUclips again and can't wait for the new videos to come out!!
*IC82 posts a video* RETURN OF THE KING
he meant will is back
LONG LIVE THE KING. *Lion king theme plays*
Stop Being selfish
@@samswofford2035 what do you mean?
Guy Manuel his Nans dead
Firstly welcome back.
I discovered your channel literally on your last upload before your hiatus, I came for the Lego and stayed for the model trains.
I worked my way through most of your back catalogue then started watching a couple of other model railway channels as well as diving into the world of Lego RUclips as a viewer and then as a content creator. Watching your channel started me on that journey so I want to take this opportunity to say thank you.
And wow you've been through a lot and I can understand why you have had to take time away. Life takes priority over RUclips.
Nice Lego sets in the background too :)
Hi Will, I hope making this video has helped you along your road to recovery. As you say, loss is very personal and each of us deals with it differently. It sounds like you are surrounded by supportive family and friends. Hang in there. God bless.
Great Video Will, Glad to hear you are back sorry to hear all the bad things have happened. All of RUclips is feeling for you mate and very proud that you have came out and made this video. Big Respect
Sorry about the unfortunate circumstances, remember you are not alone in this, and hey, congrats on being a father, i look forward to the many great things in the future of this channel and may I request. Maybe some IC82 model style asmr??
Missed you, man. I've grown up with your channel as long as it's been out. You're one of the biggest reasons I'm into model trains. You're THE channel to go watch for me. Glad you're back, can't wait for your new content. I'm so sorry to hear about all the things you've gone through, but I know everything will be okay. We're all here for you, and we always have been (even if we just look like comments). Love ya Will.
I'm sorry for your loss mate. But stay strong and take your time, we're all behind you.
Welcome back! We've been patiently waiting for you :)
I’m extremely glad to see your back and I hope your good now as you have helped me through depression and a load of other stuff along with a few other people on RUclips I really really hope that your Alright now and I can’t wait to see what the future brings and I hope the best for you now and in the future.
Yours faithfully Hannah.
I lost both my grandmothers within 2 weeks in 2011 bloody awful year that was. Hope your ok now will.
I can relate to that. I lost both grandfathers within a couple of month of each other in 2007. Then we discovered my nain had dimensia. So, yeah, rough year.
@@snazzyguy2000 firstly I've gave you're comment a thumbs down only because that must of been a shit god awful year for you and I'm sorry to hear that and a shit year like deserves a good thumbing down 😂. That being said you came out of it as I did and as will will do and others out there too. Now I look back at fond memories of my grandparents who are all long gone and laugh about all the good times and the sadness which i felt during that year has long gone. Dispite loss and heart ache you have to fight on dont you.
Welcome back to the Tube :) I've missed you. I'm glad things are starting to improve for you.
So great to hear your happy voice again, I think its fair to say you have been greatly missed. I am so sorry for your losses those lovely ladies will always be part of you.
nice to see you back stay strong i know how it feels my grandperants passed away last year
Sorry to hear of your troubles,we all go through them and you don't need to justify yourself,it's good to have you back! All the best buddy!!
Man, its good to see you back again. Its been a long-time mate, and I understand where your coming from, I have almost had a loss recently with my grandmother having surgery and getting cancer all of the sudden, it wasn't fun. But, we have to stay strong, stay brave, and become a better person because of it. I'm glad that you took the time off from social media and youtube in general, you needed it, man. I support you, we all support you man, I'm just glad you are here once again. Love ya man. Also on the side note, the BIG BOY is back in action in the states, 4014 was fully restored this year, so that's fun.
I went through the same, lost my nan and great aunty in the space of 3 days. It's hard losing not 1 but 2 close relatives in short succession. If you ever need anyone to talk to i'm here for you. I know its hard and you have don't great to not only get through this but also to not fall down the pit of depression and let it take control of you.
I know you will get through this as your a strong fighter.
Glad to see you back and hope to see some amazing videos from you in the future.
I used to watch you years ago and im so glad to have found your channel again and feel all the nostalgia... I am so sorry about your issues... 😱❤❤❤
You don’t know me but I class you as one of my best friends. Nice to see you back. Cheers, Jon.
I’m very sorry to hear that, I hope you will continue to recover from your losses, you’re a true inspiration of mine and I’m sure loads and loads of other people and it’s great to see you back!
Thank you for the update, Will, missed you and sincere condolences, I know what it's like, back in 2008 I went out shopping , leaving mum happy and planning trips. When I came back about an hour later she was gone and I never said goodbye this has haunted me. I've also had a late diagnoses of Autism, which has gone some way to explaining why I am who I am. If you fancy visiting a couple of heritage lines near me, I can offer you the Midland Railway at Butterley, The Ecclesbourne at Wirksworth and The Great Central at Ruddington! Take care my friend.
It's good to have you back will. Everyone gets to deal with stuff that's difficult for them. You don't have to justify yourself. Already glad you're comming through with all that has happened and very happy to see you back :)
Will, take it easy. Do not worry about RUclips. Family and friends ALWAYS come first no matter what, so spend more time with them, and enjoy what you have. Also, don't be afraid to talk to people about your feelings. Be that Friends, Family, or Professional. It really is OK to not be OK. (P.S. Congrats on becoming a dad).
Loosing family is tough. My grandfather and aunt both died of cancer within a year apart from each other. Well even though they passed 7 and 8 years ago, I still miss them.
Sorry to hear about your loss Will, please take your time to get better, when my Dad died, I developed clinical depression, and let me tell you, it gets better, Hang in there mate
So sorry about your horrible time will. Glad to hear you are slowly making your way back!
Also congratulations for making this video. It must have been so tough to do so...
all the best :)
Wow stay strong bud you will get through this you have all of us behind you loyal viewers will agree you got me into trains the videos helped me buy my trains thanks to your amazing reviews and introduction to items I lost my great grandma July 2019 she was a big part of my life and had to help her on that dreaded day still struggling with it now (I'm 19) loosing family is terrible I feel u sir stay strong much love to u
I respect you so much. Im surprised you've come back after all that. Blimey.
You dont have to justify why youve been gone. We all have lives and not everyone can cope with that and youtube. Sometimes you need to step back and thats more than fine. Im sorry about all the accidents, and if i send something in future to you... Keep it.
Have a good day Will!
:)
my mum went last year so myself and many others no what you are going through all the best Will..look forward to more of your videos...
I’m so so happy to see you back uploading again
Glad to see you back again!! Sorry for your losses! All the best for the future!! Cheers Onno.
Will, it’s amazing to just see you and know you’re ok. And, no you don’t need to apologise. It sounds like you’ve hard a really difficult time which anyone would find especially challenging. I’m so pleased you donated to the clinic as it’s people like me who were desperate a for child you help. I’d always wanted kids, but when I turned 30 was told I couldn’t. So, a couple of years later and with the help of a donor, I now have son who’s turned 4 called Isambard or Izzy for short. My life revolves around him. To do what you did is incredibly kind, selfless and is an amazing gift. I’m so pleased you’re back, you’ve been missed by many! Take it easy. Mike
It's amazing to see you back up here.. Hope everything is OK. Praying for you and your family
Welcome back to the world of RUclips you really have been missed by the community so sorry to hear about your losses and your accident hope your not severely injured
I have just only seen this video as I thought the channel had gone, it’s great to see you back and I lost my grandad almost two years ago but I have just started building a train set for him as we both loved it
It really hurts to lose a loved one, 7 months ago, i lost my dog, still doesnt feel the same in the house without him. but its great to see you make a return.
nice to see you back stay strong i know how it feels my grandpa and grandad passed away last year
Glad to see you back, but it’s completely understandable for the break from the channel and the hobby, personal matters are far more important and I’m sure all us subscribers can relate, take your time with these matters Will, we will all be here when you are ready.
firstly glad to see your back but mainly my many respects for your looses hope your doing alright and no need to rush on the layouts or railway tours take your time getting sorted first thats important i've been through similar hospital related issues (brain bleed) but also massive congrats on becoming a biological father
I've been watching your channel since late 2010 and I knew for you to not upload any videos for almost a year that something serious and/or significant was going on. I followed your twitter feed and so of course I knew you hadn't died! Very sorry to hear about the deaths of your Nan and Great Grandmother's. now to watch the video!
Welcome back buddy! It's good to have you back, I really missed your content!
i'm glad to see you making videos again old friend. i'm sorry for loss chief.
Nice to see you back mate sorry about all your troubles hope to see more train videos soon thanks james
Good to have you back Will weve both had a rough year my dad died in Aprl 2018 he was 86 and thats been a painfull year to deal with. & congradulations on aiding others in bringing in new life into the world
I’m so sorry you had to go through this and it’s a shame I looked up to you for years and now your leaving but I appreciate that things change and congratulations on your new child
Glad you are back Will. Deepest condolences regarding your relatives. Back in the late 80s and early 90s within 2 years i had lost both grandparents on my Moms side of the family. Like myself i know you will stay strong. As the Bon Jovi song says Keep The Faith. Keep safe, regards Gary.
I'm glad you are now okay and have decided to return to model trains. I personally wouldn't mind you showing off some of your other hobbies on this channel.
Sorry to hear about your Loss, and congrats on being a dad! I’m always here for you
Was waiting eagerly for your video . Thank God you are back now.
Welcome back!
I'm not into hugging other men, but you seem to me to be a very great and nice guy and I wish to give you a big comforting e-hug!
Like Peter Pan you and I will probably always stay young inside even if our bodies grow old (I'm much older than you btw) and I do hope that sometime in the future you will get another chance to adopt a kid. You would be a perfect father in my opinion.
Stay young and play as much as possible! (I think I'll run my Bachmann class 08 diesel now. One of your videos made me buy that loco. One of the best running ones that I have :) )
Cheers from Sweden, Anders & Selma (my cat)
I feel so sorry for you and were still here for you.😀 hope you get back to RUclips soon!!!
Losing your first close relative is always going to be tough. Please make sure that you reach out for help, be that family or friends should you need it. Stay strong and take care of yourself. You are a lovely human and don't ever forget that.
Wow that was a tough half hour to watch.. Glad to see you back with a different style of you tube video ( which is why I followed you in the first place) and I'm glad to hear the N inglenook is still a project. Good luck for the future.........
Hes back, we had all the other railway modeller youtube to watch whilst you were gone, I hope things get better for you and we look forward to having you bwcj
When you feel like it’s all over, life’s got more for you. That’s the annoying thing.
Sorry to hear of all the trails and tribulations Will. You're a remarkable individual. Welcome back!
I missed you so much, also I am sorry for your pain, and I am glad you are back. I used to watch you when I was younger and I loved the videos you did. And when I found your channel again I was happy, then, when you stopped I was worried that you had a... death. But now you're back I am happy again. I love your vids. I am sorry for your loss of your nan and aunt.😥😥
This will pass and things will get better. They always do. Your videos are a great help in getting me started with British N gauge.
I am so sorry to here about the passing of some of your family members. I understand how it feels. But it is good to have you back, but take as much time off as you need.
Will nice to have you back , the trials of life can be devistating at times but you must be strong and endure these things mate i know how painful kidney stones are ive had two lots about 40 years ago thank God no more have come back . drink pleanty of fluids ,.

Wishing you and all the family well for the future.
