Hi Peachy. Sorry to hear about your ceiling collapse; I hope the layout wasn't too damaged. You had me worried when I saw the spaghetti-like wires hanging down the facia, but was delighted to see how tidy you eventually were with your wiring - well done!
If only all wiring was that quick 🤣🤣. Good luck with your repairs 👍. Curiosity question. If your house is that old, do you have to do repairs as per original, or can you use any plaster? I know that preservation orders etc. can make life a little difficult!!
Fortunately no we don’t have any particular building restrictions other than standard U.K. building regs and of course our own wishes to keep it as original as possible. This ceiling will however get replaced with more modern products than Lathe & horse hair plaster! As for the speed of wiring, that’s 4 hours work reduced to 4 minutes 🤣
Nice and tidy, sorry to bother asking. Do you know how far down in Wire Gauge a standard Wago goes? Just looks like so much less of a hassle to mess with under the baseboard compared to the usual Chocolate blocks or barrier strips..
Hi Peach ta for the vid. What scale is the church in the background is it 1:120 scale. If so can u remember where you got it from? 😀 Also I’m new to all of this. I had a small layout over 50 years ago 😀 what’s the purpose of those electrical connecting blocks the Waggo ones Cheers Steve
The church is a Metcalfe N gauge kit that will likely sit on a distant hill one day when I build my loft layout. If you want low cost but excellent cardboard buildings in 1:120 gauge have a look at the Scalescenes website, you need ti download the OO versions then print off at 63% to get them at the correct scale. I think I might do a video of a build sometime. The Wago connectors are just a neat and easy to use system that are now pretty much industry standard out there in the real world.
Tidy Work peachy
My front room ceiling fell down last year, but I live alone, so no train funding has been harmed during the production of my layout🤣
😂😂😂
Sorry about the ceiling! Happens sometimes.
Ta. Only two left to replace now! 🤞🤦♂️
Thanks for another video Peachy.
Hope you get your living room ceiling sorted.
Cheers, yeah that’s next weeks job 🤦♂️
@@PeachyTT120 Fun, fun, fun! Bet you can’t wait 🙂

Thanks Paul. Yes for once the layout wasn’t on the coffee table!
Those Wago connectors certainly made making tidy a lot easier.
Nice background music choice! A little Elgar is always good
Cheers, although I was at first worried about copyright infringement, but my tech/editor/teenager says I should stop worrying. 😄
top job love work peach

@@PeachyTT120 Thanks. I thought that's what it looked like. That's why I asked. It does give the choice at least. 👍👍👍

No bother, although I’m sorry I can’t give you an exact wire gauge. All I know is it seems to be happy holding on to very thin wire such as .2mm
@@PeachyTT120 Seems plenty then. Thanks.
