You have an impressive set up. I particularly like your point work at the approach to the station. Once fully sceniced that will make for some great video’s.
It’s a great way of hiding a tight corner too. Not many of them in the real world but found that Crewe station offers the scenario I was looking for so loosely basing this part of the layout on it 👍
WOW fabulous layout, a labour of love!!! hope to see much more..ive been on a break due to a house move but hope to be back soon...i miss it..all the best, dave😊
Can't wait for the updates. I have a question, it's a general question aimed at anyone. Q. When you have a large or even small fiddle yard, why do you not model the yard as a Carriage and Wagon yard so it forms part of the whole layout?
Good question and personally I don’t do this as most modern “yards” or storage areas in the real world would be operated by one company and would more often than not have just one type of freight in said place. So it would mean having 1 yard for GWR, one for XC, then a separate yard for each type of freight. Another reason for me is that I believe yards look much better when they’re around 20 tracks and only a handful have stock in them, again this is more realistic. These are just my views and it has crossed my mind that “the rest of the world” on any layout becomes a scenic area. Some people do this however it’s not for me. 👍
Dear Woodford Model Railway, great video like all the previous ones! If you can answer me: 1. What is the centerline, intertrack, for the Main Line? 2. What is the centerline, intertrack, for the substation (stagging station) tracks? 3. What is the centerline, intertrack, for the tracks in the station at the side of the platform? If you said this information in the video, not speaking English... but I write in Googlenglish... Thanks in advance and congratulations again, it will be interesting to see how your work progresses!
@@GoodfordModelRailway 1. “Centerline” = it is the central line of the track, if you have two parallel tracks the distance between the “Centerlines” is the intertrack that Peco, for Code 55, defined as 5.08 cm.; 2. “Main line” = it is the main line which is often double track; 3. “Staging station” = it is the hidden area, with several parallel tracks, where the trains alternate; 4. “Platform” = it is where passengers rest their feet when they get off the train. I'm surprised that a modeler like you didn't understand what I wrote; are common English terms for model railroading. Thank you so much!
@@CFFollis_Disabile_DOC thanks but i believe those terms would be American and not English. All track is Peco code 75 and the tracks are 5.08cm apart on the scenic section of the layout. I hope this answers your question.
Looking fantastic! Really reminds me of Reading with the road underneath the end of the platform, always remember a model shop right on the corner before going under the bridge 😊 great progress and thanks for sharing, cheers Darrell
@@GoodfordModelRailway nice one , it must have been over 40 years ago and think it was called Eames they had a shop in KX too and I’m sure it had something to do with making nameplates ?
@@GoodfordModelRailwayhi Dave, did you still need the Bachmann retaining walls ?as I’ve seen some in my local model shop but just need to check the part number, let me know if you do , cheers Darrell
@@darrelldeltic807 I do indeed Darrell, got the part number wrong on the video. It’s 44-225 that I’m after. Let me know the name of the shop and I can reach out to them and of course, will be forever grateful 😂👍
@@GoodfordModelRailwaynice one , I’ve checked with my mate Graham at Mostly Trains Eastbourne, give him a call on the number and let him know I’ve sent you as he’s put it to one side for you 😊👍
Very good question, I believe the thinking at the time is that all platforms are designed to be bi-directional so it means that if there’s a train on the far main line and it is running wrong line it can still run on to the main line and doesn’t prevent a unit running from the main line in to the far station terminating siding (linked to branch line). Hard to explain but if I remember I’ll bring it up on the next video 👍

Nice one Dave, coming along nicely and hope this new version is the one for you.
i like the idea of a raised station building i have used this on my layout its a great space saver all the best from pete

Nice update, very impressive line up of stock👍
Cheers John b😎
Wow, your layout looks amazing, cannot wait to see the end result🚂👍🌟🤗Regards Elizabeth Lines

Nothing prettier than a well stocked yard 🙂👍
Nice Track Plan it’s A Challenging layout It’s Like Where Ya Goin And What Line You goin To.

Brilliant Layout - Thanks for sharing look forward to further updates - subscribed and liked
This is going to be fab! Very realistic set up with the head shunt, over bridge and raised station section. Ace.
Nice work. Regards from NZ Bernie
A great update, thanks for sharing
Looking great
looking good
Nice baseboard construction! This looks to be the second coming of Everard Junction 😊 Cheers Joachim
Wow, that’s saying something and thanks but I am quite a way off that level! 😂

Sorry but I don’t really understand the terminology in your question. Thanks for taking the time to comment though. 👍

What's the purpose of the short (25cm?) link between the main and branch line? It appears that trains can equally use the double slip beside it.
Very good question, I believe the thinking at the time is that all platforms are designed to be bi-directional so it means that if there’s a train on the far main line and it is running wrong line it can still run on to the main line and doesn’t prevent a unit running from the main line in to the far station terminating siding (linked to branch line).
