    Just when I thought your scenery building couldn't get better, you prove me wrong. The line side landscape looks sooooo good!

      Cheers. Yeah I’m pretty pleased with it too. Been a long time in the planning and making this corner of the layout. Lots to do though. But it’s great fun.

      Hi John. Thanks. Glad you like the way I put this one together. Some people would spin this out to a 2 hour video, but I like to keep things to around 30-40mins max, so I edit it down and mix it up a bit.
      Thanks for watching. Cheers. Dave

    Hi Dave,
    Great video love the blends of foliage you’ve used on the embankment. And can’t wait to see your thoughts on Accurascale’s Class 60. Top job as always.
    All the best,

    Hi Dave. Great update video on your layout. You made a really good job of the embankment and gasometers. It was nice to see the highlights of the Cupar Model Rail Exhibition. Best wishes. Mark.

    As always Dave, a well explained and nice mixed update. The area by the gasometers has really come to life with the ground cover and bushes being added. It was nice to hear you mention about the difference between the lineside in steam days and the gradual infestation towards the tracks being allowed on the real railways. If only they had kept the lineside as well maintained as it was back in the steam days , not only would there be hundreds more viewing points all over the network to take photos BUT most importantly...."Leaves On The Line" would not even exist in railway vocabulary, let alone cause traction issues for wheels. 👍

    Good update here Dave, great progress on the scenic area you were working on, hope you had a good time at the show you went to, from the looks of
    It thee were some nice layouts there, accurascales 60 looks nice, I am after a new 60 as I currently have a hornby one but when I bought it it wasn’t in the best condition, while I do say accurascales is nice I am also looking at the upcoming cavalex one, to be honest I think I’m leaning more to the cavalex one because my 56s from them which I have recently fitted the sound decoders to have been some of the best models I have got this year and with the 56 being a great first loco from them it’s very fair to say that their upcoming 60 will be just as good.

    Nice job with the poly fibre. I've been experimenting with cheap/own brand chopped parsley for leaves. The different brands all seem to be slightly different shades of green, so you can get a good variety. Cheers

    Great video as ever Dave, and awesome work on that corner of the layout! Also, the accurascale class 60, even right now, looks awesome! I'm getting the coal sub sector one, as my late dad was a miner at, among other collieries, Seafield, in Kirkcaldy! What was your favourite layout from the show? There were quite a few ones I liked best, in particular the Studio tour, and the Japanese set layout! And, don't worry, once I have a chance, I'll be investing in a microphone for myself, to use with my camcorder!

    no matter how hard I try I can never get the holes in the right place for fencing. The solution i have come up with is to remove the middle pegs and just use the end ones and this seems to work fine.
