Hi, I'm George's Mum and just wanted to mention that George actually got married at Talyllyn and drove his own wedding train so he's actually going to put his huge heart into this one.....enjoy everybody!
Look everyone, My mums here..
Be proud mum ya boy does great work haha
@@bennihulls6851 he is amazing! Always been the same, his attention to detail never fails to amaze me! We used to take him to Talyllyn as a baby and from a very young age he'd sit for hours in his pushchair just watching everything 😁 he then grew up, found a girl who even agreed to get married at the station🎉 then had 2 daughters who "tolerate" his passion😁
AHH bless that's amazing
HE DROVE HIS OWN WEDDING TRAIN????!!!!!
This is next level 009 energy
great project. looking forward to following the build
Thanks, a lot of people seem as excited as I am about it 😅
somehow, even i'm exited and i'm not even making it! good luck, George!
Thanks! Oh don’t worry, I’m plenty excited for this one 😂
Yep! Happy happy!! :)
Yey!
I enjoy your video i saw it the railway modelers magazine and look forward to the tallyrhlyn project your video 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 this ðoes help me thank you 😂
I’m glad the channel helps
Talyllyn Railway, Nice.
Thanks, it’s the best!
Oh my God yes oh my lord yes!!!! I'm so excited I can't wait to see this!!!!!
Yes, I’m really excited for this one!
You've converted me. I want to build a narrow gauge Australian railway, lots to choose from, and I don't need space.
A huge benefit is the space thing, it’s amazing how many people were shocked at how small the Corrish layout is when they saw it in person
Hello 👋 I model Aussie narrow gauge in on30 it’s an amazing thing to do with so many options. Good luck with it.
Looking forward to following this project, love your entertaining videos. Did I detect a bit of the "little boy in the sweetshop" in your voice as you ran through the kits 😂
John
Literally John, I’ve never had a pile like this, I’ve never had the money to purchase what I want, infact in my normal scale of 5.5mm that I’ve modelled in for years, I only have two steam engines, and one I made myself 😅 so this is so exciting!
Ooo a day early, cant wait to see it im slowly building a layout myself using your vids as a guide
I hope you find the videos of use for your build!
The area on the Talyllyn Railway I've always wanted to model is the Water Point of Ty Dwr that was just recently restored, it's such a unique and interesting spot and the water being taken from a waterfall is such a quaint scene
Timeless location, you could happily swap out models of different eras which is nice
The idea of Nant Gwernol in Autumn is so lovely, good luck with the build!
Exactly, autumn, if done correctly, is stunning on a model, so hopefully it’ll work out well
Very happy. Thanks for really investing so much into this channel!
Say, if you're doing No. 6 in a modern day setting, does this mean we'll get Douglas RAF Blue‽
Indeed, and I’ve had custom decals made for it, it’s going to look good
@@GWilliamsonModels Livery to die for, can't wait!
Fantastic! Can’t wait to see this progress!
Thanks! I hope you enjoy the build, lots of fun things to show you!
Look forward to this build. Corrish is an excellent layout and series, so this should be even better. (No pressure 😎)
Thanks, I’ve never modelled autumn so I hope I can pull it off
Looking forward to following this project from Australia. You hooked me in with the Corris layout.
That’s brilliant to hear! I hope you enjoy the build!
Sooooo looking forward to this series. 🥳👍
I hope you’ll continue to enjoy the videos, got lots to show you!
Really looking forward to this new series
Good to hear, I think it’ll be a really good model if I can pull the autumn look off
So excited George, can’t wait to see the progress and be inspired by your level of detail.
Very good choice as well something about the end of the line that is always interesting.
Thanks, I hope I continue to inspire, that’s a big thing for me doing this
This is looking like a grand project, and i am looking forward to seeing your progress.
Thanks! I really think it’s going to be a great layout, if I can pull it off!
@@GWilliamsonModels based on your work with the corris layout. You defiantly can.
'Corris' was brilliant, really looking forward to watching this progress. Don't envy the task of making all those tress 😮 Best wishes for your new career George.
Thanks! No, the trees are scaring me a bit..plus I want to try a new technique to get the look a bit better..
hey George what an incredible stock of rollingsrock and the fact dundas and teaming up with you on this one is just incredible it will be fun watching the progress as i build my TR coaches 1-5
Yes, I’ve never had so many kits ready to go, it’s been difficult not building them up already 😅 although it’s a real operation getting things in order, ordering wheelsets, custom made transfers etc ready for each video!
@@GWilliamsonModels i have a similar issue i have 5 weeks till one of the largest model shows in nz and my 009 is just track on foam and postage from the uk takes 4 weeks 😱
Keeping busy I see. Trying my hand at a Welsh layout myself. BTW, as a states side modeler, it is mind numbing finding stockists. LOL. Great work as always George.
You should have no issue finding the Bachmann ‘Talyllyn’ when it arrives, as it’s bachmann USA that are producing it I think?
Looks like a great idea! I recently travelled up to Nant Gwernol for the first time since 2018, its a stunning location and should look great in model form!
It’s beautiful, isn’t it, I’ve always loved it up there, and I hope you enjoy the autumn twist on it
Don't forget, when you come to model the Brown Marshalls, that 1 & 2 are 1 ft longer than 3! I will be interested in how you solve these: :)
I decided that until I can get the meridian kits, I’m happy to ignore the slight size difference, as it’s small in 1/76 scale..much bigger things to worry about such as the massive couplings hanging off the end 😂
@@GWilliamsonModels The Meridian kits are for 3, 4 and 5 - you have 4 and 5, and the Westcliff Works ones are also No 3 (according to your narrative, which accords with the Westcliff's comments on NGRMO). My solution was to use the Bachmann coaches, and obtain some brass buffers to suit from LRS. I will send a PM in NGRM with links to my threads!
Loved the Corris series, so really looking forward to this series .... but was it the need to design (and hide from view) a suitable slate waggon catapult which put you off modelling the foot of Alltwyllt incline in dyddiau henen? 🤔
No, it is being modelled present day, so the incline is no longer used, if that’s what you mean?
@@GWilliamsonModelsI was thinking more of the shattered runaways of yore, on the rocks and down in the Nant, plus the surrounding trees. Modern's good (Abergynolwyn was still the top terminus last time I was there) .... so how about just one waggon wheelset, as rusty as they come, stuck up a tree, for old times sake? 🙂
Congrats on finding those MM carriages.
@@TheHoveHeretic ah I see, there’s always something that can’t be added on due to space, but I’m hoping to add atleast a wheelset in the ravine, it would be rude not to 😉
Delighted about this. Firstly autumn is a really interesting season to tackle. Have seen a few attempts, but they are often too fluorescent/plasticky for me. Hoping for tonal depth and complexity in browns and yellows and I’m sure you’ll nail it. Also rather happy as the 3 bogie coaches I sold you were originally built for a model of… Nant Gwernol. I completed the lower level (idea to have a slate quarry above) but didn’t do it in autumn or the river. I sold it on (will send an image of it to you) and it may still exist somewhere…. I too am a little worried about the entry geometry into the HS - as an idea could you turn the layout into an L and then have a joint across the boards which is perpendicular to the edge and avoid the reverse curve problem too?
Yes I agree Colin, I don’t think autumn modelling is for the faint hearted, so should be a good challenge. My goal is the seasons still seeing the last of greens aswell as the browns/yellows etc coming in, but leaves on and around the line+platform.
So far, planning the layouts curve seems to work out ok, and it’s lines up nicely with Birds Eye shots. I intially wanted an L shape, but for practicality in the modelling room itself, it needs to be straight. We will see if that works out soon I guess!
How do you scale down from the real thing is it 1 : 1 or just what space you have it has to fit or is there some other way you decide on doing it to make it look correct
So I use the drawings in the book, and use a grid to scale it up. You can see if you’re close if you place models onto it.
This is going to be amazing.
My only question is, this was released on a Thursday, but your videos tend to be realised on a Friday. Is this series being released on a weekly schedule or when your happy it’s ready.
Either way, I’m excited
Thanks
No it was meant to be Friday, but I’ve started teacher training this week, so the schedule went out the window. I plan it to release on Friday at 07:00, however, it seems to change so I have to keep checking that. There we go, see it as a treat this week 😅
Ok, I hope your teacher training goes well.
@@TheModellersMess thanks, secondary chemistry, so we will see 😅
Is it Friday already?
The CZcams schedule system was obviously extremely excited for this one..
Could you do me a track plan ?, obviously would pay you. I am about to start a 009 layout . Ordered loco, wagons and track. Have great modelling skills , but stumped with track plans .
If you want to send me an email, we can chat about that
@GWilliamsonModels can you send me full email address mate
My messages keep vanishing
@GWilliamsonModels whats your email mate
