Hi big bruv, always available and happy to narrate a 2024 version of the history if required. The heritage yard is looking very good, ignore the digestive 😊
My little bruv, how you doing fella? Making a 2024 version would be brilliant, let’s get our heads together and do one - that would be great! 👍🏻👍🏻. Don’t worry about the chocolate digestive thing, it’s already ignored my friend! 😂😂. Cheers. …………Graham
@@GrahamFoulston I am doing just fine, health is pretty good and I am enjoying myself. Yes, we can get our heads together and update the story to match Lakeside version 2. You think about what is needed and I will write the script and narrate it. Something to look forward to.
@@TheDiomedef16. Brilliant Ian, I will work on that and thank you. Glad to know that you are keeping well health wise too. I’ll be in touch with you. 👍🏻👍🏻
You are a very brave man baring your self like this. You have my respect as a CZcamsr, but most of all as the man you are. I hope you will find yourself again. All the best to you and Hazel. Best regards Simon
WOW the layout looks amazing Graham! very interesting story...ive been following as you know.... ive been on a "break"due to a house move...hope to be back very soon with a new layout...,..i miss it.....also not been watching much but catching up on that too now!!!!! all the best dave
Hi Graham, fantastic episode! I really enjoyed the layout update and the history of Lakeside has been beautifully and believably crafted. Always enjoy your updates. Take care. David.
Fantastic video, the backstory is very interesting with the various relevant buildings cleverly edited into the narrative, really enjoyed it Heritage yard looking very impressive, like the area with the spare wheels, nice place to get away and e joy a cuppa, great stuff Cheers, James
Nice to understand where your ideas come from. A history lesson on Lakeside professionally narrated by your friend, well put together documentary Graham.
Morning Graham, I've followed Lakeside for a number of year's,and always enjoyed your adventures building Lakeside, your inspiration your ethos. But adding the back story is a inspiration, it brings the whole town and railway to life, your narrative is well written and your narrator is perfect. Congratulations eddy xx
Hi , your explination of how Lakeside began the first time and you writing about it before you started it was extreemly interesting to hear , as now i have a little backdrop imfirmation on your thoughts regarding planning the first Lakeside and this present one . I am really looking farward to watching the coming video and wil take great interest in it . Many thanks 😊
We are fans of history. Love the background story of Lakeside. Heritage yard looks great. Soon you will be selling tickets for the Heritage train trips. We better get ours soon. I guess that the Bleeching cuts didn't come to the Lakeside area. Bill and Janet from California
Hi Graham, The heritage yard is looking good, and my grandson has really enjoyed listening to the back storyline of Lakeside. Speaking of my grandson, have you seen his latest video, it's took him over an hour to film about 25 seconds of stop-motion animation for it. I've decided to chance my arm and leave the comments on this one. He's got so much going on it took me several views to spot everything. It's an enjoyable video from you again... Cheers James 🙂👍
Another terrific video Graham. I had never saw or heard that previous video / story. Yes, it explains everything about your marvelous Lakeside layout. Thank you once again for sharing and I'll be sure to also share with my Model Rail friends, John Perth WA.
Hi Graham. Brilliant history of Lakeside. Great narration. Manor House has always looked superb. That foam stone wall I told you about looks good, just offered it up at the moment. Brilliant vlog Graham. Thank you. ....Pete....
Hi Pete and thanks for the comment mate, much appreciated. Could you pop a photo up of the walling on our group chat for me please? I will most likely be going to Trains4U tomorrow (Tuesday) for some other scenic stuff and if it looks ok then I will most likely get some from there - if they have it in stock. 👍🏻. Cheers. ………..Graham
Good evening Graham nice trip down memory lane i enjoyed the old back story haven't things changed but the land and manor house still belong to the same family as you have always stated in your videos. The heitage yard is getting there to. Stay safe my friend oh keep your eye out towards the end of the week or the start of next. Stephen
I love the narration. I had a chance to do a historical workup on one of the properties at my old job. I worked at the biggest land trust in Massachusetts. We started our clock in 1640 and brought it into the 21st century. I remember the old Lakesied. You were almost finished and came to the conclusion that it didn't work, hence the new Lakeside. I love your content. I think I've been around almost from the beginning. Looking forward to the next 10 years.
Uhm.... Wow!!! I think I subscribed in 2018, and had not seen this, much to my shame I now see. This was brilliant!!! The new work was great to see, but the epic story was the coolest thing I have heard in relation to a layout. Many of us have a story to our layouts... I slowly want to capture the city in Germany in which my world was changed, but this is a level of literature and modeling at the highest level. Stunning. What a real blessing.
A good video here Graham, don’t think I have ever seen someone else do a history of their layout, that’s quite good and would really let people imagination run wild if more people did it, I don’t have a history for a layout as of yet as I haven’t built a layout yet but one major development for me is I have finally plunged into the world of DCC, more excellent work on the heritage yard and as I always say keep up the great work.
Hi Graham, I recently came across your channel. I'm liking the manhole covers, I personally have several of them, as to hide sections I might need to lift up, modify, maintenance etc, As working on small sections independently on a workbench is much easier to accomplish finer details such ballasting and painting various.
Graham great video , comments made about looking like digestives made obviously by foodies , if you like them brown leave them brown . I sincerely hope the eye is better
Hi John and many thanks for the kind comment. The black manhole cover does look better than the brown I originally had it in but it’s staying no matter what folk say, I’m happy with it so that’s all what matters. 👍🏻. Cheers. ………. Graham
Just calling out now Graham for a ghostly figure to be seen in the Manor house if you could do it somehow. Very interesting history too of Lakeside. Very enjoyable. Take care, all the best.
Had a little smirk at the digestive comment - it looks fine Graham - the yard is starting to look really impressive - and a very wise decision to delay the paper laying until the ballast is done. A an extra detail - how about a tea / coffee stall in the yard for the volunteers and visitors? Regards Steve
Beautifully Narrated by your friend Graham, very befitting with the scenics. Do you plan to weather the cobble stones around the manhole? Cheers, Michael.
History and a chocolate digestive on a Sunday night (well, a manhole cover anyway - it looks nowt like a biscuit to me). If only I had some cocoa. I do have a Yorkshire accent (being from Sheffield) too.

The backstory is absolutely brilliant and now makes a lot of sense. Very clever writing and narration. Graham

Excellent video Graham, I remember seeing the original story all those years ago, and the building of the Manor House…Simon

That was really interesting Graham it's nice that you've got a true backstory to your layout it is looking really good
Thanks Graham it greats to get the background, well done.
