A couple of excited kids in Hornby Magazine polo shirts and fleeces 😂 I can’t wait to see it at Milton Keynes. Joking apart, I don’t remember anything before which has put such a smile on our hobby - brilliant
The music fits the video perfectly. I love both watching AND listening to it.
Well done to Pete and the team. What a fantastic model and a brilliant way to raise money for charity.
I've been waiting for this video! It didn't disappoint.
Hope you enjoyed it!
@@hornbymag I sure did! And now I've got the bookazine and the September issue on order.
I'm thankful that it is coming to the NEC next year!
The attention to detail at such a popular scale, I can see it inspiring a lot of modellers and future modellers.
It’s such an incredible layout. So much detail and innovation. It’s a perfect depiction of the real location too which is simply amazing
The boxing day idea is fantastic - I'd donate to bring mine along!
Absolutely brilliant, and expanding the boundaries of model railways. I would love to see model figures on the station and some track workers on the lines. Marvellous that people can run the trains. Wishing every success to all the team.
Amazing work, very lifelike.
Absolutely mind boggling, and I mean that in a good way.
I think one of the best comments for me from Mr W was that over 100 kids got to have a little go on the layout! 🙂 Keeping the hobby alive 👍
I remember when this layout was in it's first stage (MT1) and seeing it at the GETS two years ago and I thought it was impressive looking at the time.
Not only did it get expanded once from MT1 to MT2 to include an extended segment of Rugby but now in 2023 an entirely new section focusing slightly down south of the WCML recreating MKC and it looks unbelievable, it captures the entire scene absolutely perfectly and I cannot wait to see this down when I head up down south from London to see this!
Second visit coming up as absolutely fantastic layout the details are amazing fabulous craftsmanship
Love what’s being done to keep the hobby alive! Great job to Pete and the team!😊
We agree! And there is more to come with the plan to Making Tracks 1, 2 and 3 together at the 2023 Great Electric Train Show on October 14/15 in Milton Keynes 😃
Looks incredible I’m gutted I missed it I was visiting my parents in Chester 3 weeks ago before heading back to the US. Maybe next year
so pleased to hear that they'll be combining all three into one layout, doubt I'll ever get to see it unless it lands a permanent home somewhere, but just great to know regardless.
And the boxing day event that let's kids brain their own trains is genius as well
What a stunning and incredible layout, it's absolutely superb!
(By the way there is a spelling mistake in the title, we can have only the best for Pete! :) )
Visited yesterday. Have seen MT1 & 2 but MT3 sets the bar way higher! The layout and detail is fantastic. I think one of the highlights has to be how they have designed it to be interactive for kids where they can get an electric controller and "drive a train" themselves around the layout - brilliant idea. The look of concentration as they followed it round and the smiles when they received a certificate afterwards was heartwarming.
Spoke to Pete Waterman and his plans for the future with the layouts. Fingers crossed they come to fruition as all I can say is "wow"!
wow,wow,wow, what great setup
Everything about this is good. Outstanding model making, huge response, salute to the Cathedral for hosting. Can't wait to get down to Chester and see it for myself. And it's live on Railcam!!
Definitely worth the visit! There is also a superb exhibition of Tom Connell railway illustrations to view alongside Making Tracks 3.
Missed this show with work commitments. Might go to the Xmas show 26th December just outside of Chester .
Definitely on my list for a visit to the cathedral 😊 end of August
An amazing layout
This looks unreal, I'm looking forward to seeing it in Milton Keynes for GETS and seeing the 3 combined for this mega layout
It’s a gorgeous layout, I must say!! Although I’m not going in the direction of Chester, I’m highly impressed with the quality of the various parts of it.
I totally agree!
love it that he's so excited by the next phase and making it so engaging. When's Kylie coming to drive one of the trains?
Good question! 🤣
Looking forward to Milton keens and seeing the whole layout,who wishes they had the space big enough for this fantastic layout.
We certainly do! It would be amazing to have this much space for a home layout! 🤓
Do not underestimate the amount of work required to build it either.
Sir Waterman sounds good to me.
Great idea involving the children as drivers.
Absolutely - it was great to see so many youngsters getting involved during our day with the team.
Do you have a set up using steam locos?
Seems no one thought of station lighting.
All the lights have been modelled, but switched off for day time. 🤓
Or passengers on the platforms - and all those 3-D printed bicycle lockers and not a person with a bicycle to be seen. Incredible attention to detail throughout but missing the obvious.
Very good. 🙂

@@highlandersixtysix the RailNuts team don’t use figures on any of their models. It’s the way they do things and it works for them.
