Video

Thanks for that lovely video. I have been collecting Dublo 3 rail for a few years now and I love this stuff. The prices are so reasonable and you can get some great bargains but the best thing is that all the items are bullet proof and will last forever if properly looked after and maintained. There's such a charm to old Dublo stuff and the simplicity and ease of maintenance makes operating them a real joy. Thanks!

Will this work for o gauge as well?

I have enjoyed your video and it really helps me with my recovery from my brain tumour and stroke as I try to get back to my modelling I mention my illness so you know who is watching and why thank you Just a suggestion for some extra detail A arfix raf refuelling set for a petrol delivery Also fire sand buckets was necessary All oil drums weeped so apool of oil at the base Hope you didn't mind thank you 😊

Really interested in this conversion. Just having a go at it myself so following with u h interest.

Very informative. So much misinformation around and you simlified it. Where can I find the conversion kit if they are available. Haven't been able to find any after ages of searching. Hopefully this site is still monitered. Thanks for your effort. 8:01

I'm loving these videos thankyou very much for taking the time to produce them. Looking forward to seeing whatever dioramas you come up with using these models.

Hello from the US. I've subscribed and liked because I'm in the "gathering the resources" stage of re-entering paper model building. In 1982 I built a Dover Publishing Company Spirit of St. Louis and hauling truck combination kit. I remember the cardstock as being of very good card thickness in that no additional backing was needed. As I was just watching this video and seeing your use of various dowels, brush handles, and other sized items, I'd pause for a bit and scramble around my place for different sized diameters. I felt like I was on a Scavenger Hunt again from the 1950's! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello, your Merchant Navy os progressing nicely! I’ve managed to find a few photos of cards on the net: LMS Princess Royal LNER Sandringhm LNER A1 LNWR 2-4-2 SR Lord Collingworth (Lord Nelson class?) SR Merchant Navy Quality varies, but some issues can be corrected directly on the computer (contrast, colour saturation, brightness etc.) It’s a pity no one has uploaded them as printable pdf files. I can’t imagine there would be copyright issues after all these years… if I can get access to a decent colour printer (ours at home is on the blink😢) I’m going to print one out and see. What do you use in terms of papier/card ? 120g/sq metre ?

Great collection of Hornby Doublo products. I am into model trains. I love these vintage Hornby Doublo products. I have tracks and buildings with me. Looking out for 3 rail steam locomotives. I am from Chennai India..

Buying one of these too. Walsall Model Industries do fantastic hook and couplings, they also do turned brass and steel buffers. Can you link or let me know where you got the cab from please?

It’s great we can copy these today and preserve the originals. I quite fancy having a go at one of these myself. Good projet for the summer holidays…

6 likes! Very realistic looking building!

8 likes! Very nice station! New sub here!

Coming together nicely

Informative, thankyou

Amazing🚂👍🌟🤗Regards Elizabeth

Spot on

It looks great with the varnish on it! I have to dig mine out I can't remember if I have trains or lorries, they're in a box somewhere. Thanks for the video and the update. All the best from Canada.

What scale are these made to ? Is the MN in Southern Livery ? It might even have been made pre 1948! Just did a bit of a search. Started by a Geoffrey Heighway in 1941! People used to take them into the bomb shelters during air raids for something to do that didn’t take up too much space.

I just realized that I do have some of these card model kits somewhere I'll have to dig them out. They're for lorries though I think. I'm looking forward to seeing how the buildings turn out. Cheers!

Great video! Lovely to see some of this old stuff getting made. Didn't they do lorries too?

Hello, these models look good, I'm very interested in the station buildings as I'm thinking of altering my station area, are they still produced? Do you have a link to buy these?

The garage is looking good

Love the roof, the rust looks so nice and realistic!

Nice video, likes from me...

32 cylinders.

when built bullt them they were declaired mixed traffic to ger around the war time restrictions on passanger only locomotives but i think they never pulled freight in southern or br usage

Great video, I could easily get into model boat building if I'm not careful. Thank you for sharing

Thank you for a very informative and interesting video and well presented. I am 68 years old now and I left school in 1970 and got a job with British Rail as a Junior railman or lad Porter and worked in various departments thru British Rail, then into the private sector. I like your Hornby collection and I find thee rail very interesting. The very first 00 track my dad got me when I was a young lad was the two rail with the gray plastic base. It was all second hand but i was very happy, I felt like i had won the pools. Happy days indeed. Thank you once again for a great channel and I shall be watching again. Keep safe sir. 👍🚂

Good idea! I've been starting to plan a diorama or desktop layout for industrial/Feldbahn type trains, inspired by LocoRemote's tiny trackplans and Carl Arendt's site. I've got a small set of the LocoRemote track but it takes a long time to print a few sections, so this might be a better option.

I like this. I assume I can do this to convert a Hornby Class 60 to work on the Marklin 3 Rail AC system?

Looking great. The only thing I would be a little afraid of is the paper getting wavy from moisture in the air and/or sweat depending on how much it will get handled. But look wise it's super nice, great idea!

And looks like a nice smooth runner, too!

Love their little track! I haven't tried that section plate but it might be just the thing for a little desktop layout I'm planning.

Nice one, dog 😂

Absolute classics🎉

Excellent video dear friend😊

Hello, nice model. I think the TV series is called 'Detectorists'. The static grass is something I have never tried but the results are amazing. Thanks and good luck.

You reminded me of the TV show “Magpie”, which used the song you mentioned. czcams.com/video/wp1TG9KaEAg/video.htmlsi=DWgvqbtW35z5urqs

The chip is an old Hornby Zero One DCC loco decoder module. It was the world's first DCC system and was produced from 1979 until 1988. A lot of modellers, including myself, still run the old Zero One DCC system on layouts.

The Triang EMU came out in 1957 and had Mark.2 couplings until 1958. From 1959 onwards, it had Mark.3 tension lock couplings.

Detectorists is available on BBC iPlayer, there are three series.

You've ruined it! Paul.😪

Love the longer videos since they allow you to show us how you do it and explain why you did it that way without having to keep an eye on the runtime. Tho you probably get more work done with the shorter videos since you won't have to make sure we can see everything etc. since we will just see the "end"product So overall a good balance between some longer videos and more shorter videos is probably the way to go.

I have enjoyed your video and it really helps me with my recovery from my brain tumour and stroke as I try to get back to my modelling I mention my illness so you know who is watching and why thank you May i make a suggestion Shapeways Mar a range of 3d printed tools For workshops I hope you don't mind 😂

Hi its me again the stroke surviver with just a suggestion How about airfix raf refuelling set for a petrol delivery Also shapeways provide a range of 3d printed workshops tools for extra detail s I hope you don't mind 😂

Put loco remote in the title

Nice work. Greg, NZ
