    Thank you for a really informative tutorial, also for giving me the encouragement to stick with developing my layout using DC. I keep getting told to start off with DCC from the onset, but you’ve just showed me that a reliable layout is in the quality of the construction and not how much expensive technology you throw at it....Much appreciated. Regards Tony

    Thank you Ian for the practical tutorial on grass from hanging basket matting. Heard about its use, but actually seeing it being done made more sense.
    I have always been impressed with your home layout of Little Bytham.

    Brings back memories of charging through Little Bytham with class 31’s 47’s and 55’s after I started on the footplate at Kings Cross in 1970. Most of the footplate men were ex steam then great blokes and real characters.

    Most amazing and original presentation. Has certainly made me think it was rethink how to add details to a layout.

    Fantastic layout amazing detail. It's also great to see such great running from kit built or modified stock. As you say it's sad to see things not run so well. Will look out for the next video

    I had forgotten about the weaved cardboard construction, but I do remember the use of chicken wire. My Uncle Terry and my Dad made our first layout when I was only 5 years old in 1961. My older brother and I still have the loco''s and rolling stock from that time. Most of which is still in the loft of dad's house. (Sore point) and I have some here with me in Thailand. I am going to build a layout this year it will be called "Yorkdale LNER Preservation Railway" It will have some guest Locomotives appearing from time to time. I have made a load of paper and cardboard model buildings all I need is the baseboards and my stepdaughter's bedroom. Martin (Thailand)

    Hi Tony. Really liked your presentation. I'm struggling to reconcile your living by the ECML and your affiliation (membership of?) Wolverhampton Model Railway Club. My ears pricked up at hearing Wolverhampton as I studied there for my first degree at what was then Wolverhampton Polytechnic. WMRC must be some 80-90 miles from where you live.

    Judging by the quality of the film and the stage the work on the layout is at it appears that this video is a number of years old. Can you say which year it was originally produced?

    Dear train enthusiast,
    It is a pity that the images are not sharp, a good one, I think the rendering settings were not correct.
    At 720p you normally have a nice sharp image, it may also be due to the focus of the camera. Focus the camera on the furthest point and then zoom out a little .....

      This was filmed at least 10 yes ago. Harriers stopped flying from Withering in 2010. So quite possible that it isn't filmed with a digital camera.

    Does anyone know where to buy “browning plaster” in Canada, preferably in the Toronto Ontario area?

    • @PerthMRC
      @PerthMRC Před 3 lety

      Assuming the browning plaster is only a colour difference and not a different strength etc, you can just add a bit of brown acrylic paint to the plaster mix to get the same effect.

    • @martineccles9477
      @martineccles9477 Před 3 lety +1

      @@PerthMRC Browning plaster is different to finishing plaster as it is stronger and is an undercoat plaster used to prepare walls and surfaces before using a top coat finishing plaster. Browning plaster has a thicker and rougher texture and is most useful for very absorbent surfaces such as wood and plasterboard or cardboard used in modelling where it has a better bonding quality than ordinary finishing or pink plaster. Hope this helps.
