My first English model rail show, great people to talk to as well great vendors and layouts. I actually come both days and brought home some great buys. Thank Rick for helping me out where to go. I will be spending some time to save and come again. Sorry I never caught you. Ken
Looking forward to your next visit Ken. All the best Rick ☮️🚂😀
Another grand show! A lot of great layouts and modules, plus you found some nice pick-ups for yourself! Thanks for sharing again!
Thanks for watching Anthony, we have picked up quite a few bits recently. The show was a good one and it was also in a really nice church. All the best Rick.
some very nice layouts there, and a few bargains too
Hi Digger, it was a really nice show and yup some good bargains as well.
My favourite part of a show is the trade stands I never seen to resist I say no I’m not buying anything then it’s ooh I need that ,all the best
Mark 😃👍🏻
Yup that's exactly what happens to me too Mark! Cheers Rick.
LOL, that sounds like my approach at fairs.
This is nice for a project, I might use that for a project, look at that, wouldn't that be nice for a project?
Sometimes people or stores are having a clearance at a fair and who are we to say no to bargains like that 😁
@@edgein7892 I like to do my bit to help the economy in these troubled times. 😀
@@wellchuffedrailways We may joke about it but in a way we help the smaller stores by buying at fairs.
And ourselves.
I never bought anything online from bigger stores, I like to browse before I make my mind up, one could say that looking at a loco in real life adds to the excitement.
And another good thing is that in most stores you meet other enthusiasts so it almost becomes an outing 😄
Completely agree Ed, right from the start I made the decision to help promote local model shops on our channel as I don't want them to disappear from the high street. We have done a few vids at shops and are in discussions to do another one in the near future. Cheers Rick.
Great fair again, some good layouts on display.
I'm starting to get jealous at the amount of fairs on your side 😄😄😄
Hi Ed, there always seems to be something on at the moment and sometimes on the same days. Cheers Rick
Magic, looking at the different layouts is a nice surprise to see the different scales, also the on the trade stands. N gauge is becoming more popular as nowdays, going back to the smaller houses, not a lot of people have room for lengthy loft , or bedroom layouts . if there is space in the garden, a small 6 x 4 shed can accomodate a nice little N gauge layout, - see Simons Shed . But great video , love the bargains.. oh to win the lottery big time.. Thanks for showing/sharing. Like the commentry, gives a good background to what you are seeing.. look forward to your videos Rick and Pauline..
Thanks for watching Paul, it was a good show and we are starting to see more variety in layouts and that's probably deliberate on the organisers part. The church location was very nice as well. All the best Rick (ps I will take a look at Simon's shed)
Nice video guys ,, great mainline peak and a great haul of wagons👍🏻Salut Neil
Hi Neil, the wagons were a lucky find and well priced, the peak needs some traction tyres apart from that all good. Cheers Rick.
good vid of a good show would come but had to work keep up the good vids thanks lee
Hi Lee, maybe catch you at another one. Cheers Rick
Cool Railroad show looks like some good deals👍♐️
Cheer Arthur ☮️
Really good vid 👍🏻 such a good selection of layouts .
Cheers Gizmo, there does seem to be an increasingly varied selection at shows recently.
Hi guys, another great video. Like the mainline 45 and some real nice wagons. All the best. Carl.
Thanks Carl, it was nice to get some bargain wagons. Have you seen the price of those on eBay! Ridiculous! Who the heck would pay that! All the best Rick.
Nice Meeting you guys in Leigh yesterday, thanks for the tips you gave us, my Son, Daniel, when I asked him in the car on the way home did you like all those trains, said yes "that lady was nice" 🙂
Hi Colin, nice to meet you both too, we are always happy to chat and give some advice even though we are far from experts! Glad Daniel liked Pauline and when I told her she was very happy to hear it. Good luck to you both with the layout and all the best Rick and Pauline. 🚂☮️😀
I'm jealous too! Mind you next weekend the Blackpool and Fylde MRC are holding their long awaited return after Covid at a new venue. It's at Thornton Cleveleys YMCA. Saturday and Sunday so as it's just down the road from me might go both days! Going to cost me though as i haven' been for so long! Nice video guys at an unusual venue. Keep up the good work. Rich from Blackpool.
I think we might be going on Sunday so say hi if you see us. Cheers Rick
@@wellchuffedrailways Will do1
Being in the US, bargains are all but gone due to supply issues. There were some fantastic deals there. Some of it would be worth shipping to the States.
Hi Kevin, wow that just shows how crazy things have gotten lately. All the best Rick
I wonder if there's any GWR clearstory roof coaches in chocolate and cream still around.I think they where products of the old Tri-ang model railways in OO in the late 1950s.As a boy I bought a first-class/second class carriage and a second break coach.They looked very smart being towed behind an 0-6-0 tank engine.I wanted to buy another first class/second class carriage to go with the others but the model shop didn't have any
Hi Marilyn,they are not something I have looked for but I'm sure we have seen some at shows. I will have a look for some the next time we film. Thanks for watching Rick
As you were buying the Mainline loco at 34:34 you passed right by the unboxed BR green class 29 (for £25, as I recall), just above the IC-125 set
It was gone by the time I had decided to have a closer look at it (and possibly buy it)
Yeah completely missed that I might have to take my glasses in future. Cheers Rick
Oooh! I missed the Cadbury's!
Phew no cameo!
😘
Hi Tim, I'm sorry about that but it was Pauline who found them. Cheers Rick 😀
I want those model trains! I'm going to break into the tv screen and steam them all from ya! Don't be surprised if you see a pair of hands coming out through the lends of your camera. It is me from 10,000 miles away reaching for your model trains.
Hi Alfonso, I will put the dog on guard in that case and don't try to bribe him with biscuits as we have the cat as back up. All the best Rick 😀
@@wellchuffedrailways I'll have some buscuits and Bacon ready and some cat treat as well
Come on over you will be made very welcome. 🐕🐈
Ok... Ok WOW you are in Liverpool!!! I know you did this before I started watching you BUT ... The Beatles Home town lol and you are right there!!! I am enjoying all of the great Layouts!!! It looks like the show is in an old Church:)!! I wish mine look as nice as all of these!! Wow look at all of the great Passenger cars nice !!! Alot of great Buses and wagons too. Rick I have been to Liverpool twice for Beatles ... But now I want to go for a Train show lol..... I need you to talk my Wife into it mate lol!!! I sure did enjoy this show and wat did you get . Did you buy the Green Locomotive ?.
Hi Brad yes I did buy the green loco and it runs very nicely. This was a really nice show and we hope to go back this year. We went to the beach after the show and gave our dog a nice run. Cheers Rick
It sure did look like a god one. And wow well done on the one you got nice.😏!!!
£7.00 for Mainline Cadbury hopper nice one. I think with eBay higher price ones make me think at some point in time someone said they are rare and become a sort of urban myth on eBay.
Very enjoyable Rick. Where about in Liverpool is Old Christ Church please. Is it North Liverpool ?. Cheers.
It's not far from Crosby beach. L22 1RF. It was a nice show and the church has a cat which found a nice space to sleep behind one of the trade stands. It found Bobby fascinating!
@@wellchuffedrailways Thanks for the info Rick. Crosby is only 40 mins away from me but not been there for many years. I bet Bobby felt at home lol.
Yes it's nice of Bobby to let us both appear in his videos. Shame we couldn't catch the cat on camera 😀
@@wellchuffedrailways 😂😂😂
@@wellchuffedrailways as you know it was my trade stand 😂 three hours he just slept there, we had to keep stepping over him.
Mainline were very underated especially the MK 1 coaches and wagons...it was the motors in the locos that let them down. Most my coaches are now Bachmann but I still have 2 rakes of Mainline MK1 Blue/Greys...when released in the late 70's they were far superior to anything Hornby had to offer. I still have two Class 56's...again well detailed and ahead of the time having a driver fitted, working marker lights and headlights, all my Mainline stuff runs well bar the Class 03 which is a bit dodgy at times.
I have a rake of mk 1 mainline coaches in Maroon and they still do the job. The wagons are nice and well priced it's just a shame about the motors in the steamers. Cheers Rick
class 17 clayton used the have the cab in the middle but i have heard in and around newcastle they were used were very unreliable with one motor or the other being 2 fitted the models are turning out to be the same i gave 2 dead ones and i have juxt managed to find another one brand new for a 100.00
They did indeed and we have seen a few for sale. They weren't the greatest locos but they were full of character or it seems that way now. I hadn't heard of the problems with the models but let's hope they get it sorted. All the best Rick
There's no ladies in Chatterley Whitfield, but it does happen to be the first colliery in the UK to mine 1 million tonnes of saleable coal 😏
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatterley_Whitfield
And it happens to be right where I live so I knew what it was straight away, we have been searching for those wagons for so long, you really got a bargain there!
Great video as always.
Hi Rebecca, thanks for the info I never knew that and the article is an interesting read, I bought it as Pauline grew up on a place called Whitfield it did seem a unusual wagon. Every show we attend we always see something eye-catching and new even though the wagon might be quite old. I hope you find them somewhere. All the best Rick. 😀
It sounds so wierd hearing an English diesel sound coming out of an American unit as they dont come close to sounding like that
Hi Leslie, never spotted that but yes it must sound weird to you. Cheers Rick
