Good morning Ian. looks like you have been playing catch up with the videos. even though its a back drop station. we still have to treat as a premier build. if that makes sense. many thanks again for commenting. cheer's for now Tony.
The station cat. 😊. What a lovely touch you have, Tony.The arched top light does make the doors look infinitely better. Love your tunnel entrance. cheers, Rob
Good morning Rob. thank you for commenting. the cat was on the previous station. obviously he ran off when the old station was being demolished. things are beginning to return back to normal at Tyne dock. lots more interesting details to come. take care my friend. and have a great weekend. cheer's Tony.
Good morning Colin. I do love Chandwells work. i do pop into his channel regularly to his beautiful layout develop. thanks again for your kind words. have a great weekend, the weather is suppose to be good. cheer's Tony.
Thank you Daz, it wont be long before the first walls go up. its going to be an interesting time...many thanks again for commenting. cheer's for now Tony.
Glad you enjoyed it John. I am always very relaxed when i am building something for the layout thank you for commenting. Have a great bank holiday. cheer's for now Tony.
Tony . To all Your followers- The mesh can be purchased from a car accessory shop. It is used to fill in holes for a cars body work. I used it for covers between the tracks at a fuelling point at my diesel depot. Has many good alternative uses. Another good build. Regards John
Hi John. i agree. even Amazon sell stainless fine mesh. 4 sheets for £5. it does come in handy for all sorts. brilliant comment. worthy of many likes...cheer's for now Tony.
Hi Tony, Well what an uplifting video this is all thats needed now are some walls and a roof and passengers to the station can wait in comfort so get those workers back from the pub and it they do not get the Bachmann Boys from Daves Trains in. Cheers Robert.
Hi Tony, great figures(including the dimensions), they soon add up too. Great idea on the lift and what a beautiful construction, ditto the framing etc. Take it the lift goes down to the lower street level. Took us back to the old Schofield’s and Lewis’s store in Leeds and their suite of lifts with compulsory lift operators, showing our ages now. Take care both of you. All the best Celia and Stephen
Many thanks Stephen for commenting. yep you are right. the lift does go down to the underpass level. we have to make life easy for the porters. Lol. Take care my friends, best wishes Tony & Laura.
Thanks, you too! Chris. i do hope you have a pleasant bank holiday weekend. slowly but surely. bit by bit the station is coming together. take care my friends. Tony & Laura.
Hi Tony, love the fact that the English use the word PUB as enthusiastically as we Aussies do ! After years of watching utube train layouts ive finally built my table and started to lay tracks (n gauge ) 800mm ×4800mm ,to say im excited is an understatement😆😆😆! Your lift looks amazing, remember riding these lifts back in the early 70s, looking forward to next video 😊😊😊regards Marc
Absolutely. Wey Eye. of coarse we do. Its a English / Aussie tradition going back centuries. Do forget to build a Pub The Prancing Kangaroo. cool name for a pub. happy days ahead. i love when people tell me that they are building there on layouts. CHEER'S for now. Tony. G Day Fella.
Dear Tony, enjoyed the video very, very much! Love the detailed way you showed the build of the elevator cage. Amazing how you created the structure of the transport elevator box with such simple materials. Beautiful job on the concertina doors, door handles, open structure of the cage. Great addition of the small windows on the concertina doors. Will be very interesting to see the elevator incorporated into the Tyne Dock Station building. Am not aware what kind of level indicators such elevators would have been fitted with. Got about three on my ‘hard drive;’ all in the similar old fashion style open steel structure with (double) concertina doors. All of those elevators were located inside the buildings. One in an apartment building in Stockholm, which was fitted with a kind of ‘occupied’ lever, which flipped up as a person closed the doors. Level indicators with a light bulb line above the outside doors. Second in a Paris hotel, which had been fitted with just a similar light bulb line. Third one in either Santiago de Chile or Valparaiso, which was inside a market hall. This one only went up and down two levels. On the ground floor of the hall, all the market stalls were located, on the second floor mezzanine there were several small restaurants and shops. This elevator was just fitted with an arrow. Pointing up when the elevator was either traveling to or located on the second floor, pointing down when the elevator was moving to or in position at the first floor. Can only look in my crystal ball if you’re planning to add such a feature. It’s just the experience of these elevators I wanted to share, because they left such a lasting impression. Marvelous tip on adding the window sill to make a little ledge for ease of painting. Love the doubling of the windows and doors! Absolutely agree on the effect of shaving you did on the upper windows of the doors. Even though the doors look great at first glance, the outer rim around the door window seem accurately even in width, it makes ‘m look a bit to modern. By shaving the curve these doors come much closer to the doors you’ve shown on the photos of the Tyne Dock. Further, this little tweak also helps to make the doors look a little larger than they are. As such the tweaked doors are an excellent example of how height perception can be improved with just a little bit of shaving, think it will help to ‘lift’ up the structure to the eyes. That last one also to keep in concordance with the elevation element of your video. Cheerio
Good morning Vincent. yet again another interesting comment, a Pathe news real i had seen show a porter wheeling a trolley into a similar lift, it was on a L M S, Station. but the lift was in another cage. it was interesting to see. but for me with Tyne Dock. i needed someway of getting large parcels etc, down to the underpass. The doors look like the ones you would find in terrace houses. they are 2mm narrow than the other does. which is a big saving when you all the dimensions together. we are now on the planning road. where ever millimetre counts. Level indicators, great idea. i will have to add a set of those for when i fit the lift into the buildings. i think i would have forgotten about those. Thanks again for commenting. cheer's for now Tony.
Remarkable Tony, that is an amazing lift, the detail is incredible. We're back to one of Tony's favourite saying, yes but I know it's there !!!! 😂. Its always exciting to see something you've never done before. The planning for your builds is great this why they look so good, those doors and windows are looking great, good work again, I think the lads have done well so as it's Friday night (end of the week) I think a quick pint before we head home. We're in Surrey for this last week bit of grandchildren sitting. And today I'm off to watch the eldest "Sam" play his last football match of the season. Then tomorrow We're off home to Devon. Good week Tony, love to Laura see you next time. Eddy xx
Good morning Eddy. i am always on the look out for those unusual things to build. i was in portsmouth yesterday looking around the old part of town. i did take a few pictures some of the old building maybe as possible builds for the future. summer is almost upon us and the build of Tyne Dock will slow down as we venture out more and more. thanks again for commenting and look after yourselves, best wishes Tony & Laura.
Nice video Tony. The lift is something I'm very interested in! looking forward to seeing that complete. Nice to see the beginnings of the station building.
Hi Tony, I've been totally mesmerized by your craft on the new Tyne Dock station, it's really starting to look the business. Also interesting to see you handle a Meccano Limited made Hornby Dublo Dinky platform tractor and trailer, as far as I am aware, Triang didn't produce these after the takeover in 1964. They have a value and are lovely items to use on any model railway.
Good morning David. i did not realise how old those Hornby Duplo tractors are. i was thinking of repainting them and bring them up to date. keep the same colours. but give the driver a uniform etc. its time to do the colocations now. and what is possible and design the station using everything i have, to hopefully create something a bit different. until then my friend. stay safe and have a great bank holiday. cheer's for now Tony.
Most excellent work as usual mate. Remember those concertina gated elevators. They were usually solid walled painted government issue institution green. They had a 8" x 5" horizontal brass handle /lock. I wonder if rather than overhead winching that would need headroom for winding wheels and motor mechanism, it would be a bottom mounted hydralic model. Great to see that cat back. The Lansing Bagnall baggage tractor was put out by Hornby Dublo. I have one in my collection of English railways stuff in storage as I'm trying to build a 1880s Western theme layout at present. Arthur.
Good morning Arthur. i did not know that the tractor was a Lancing Bagnall vehicle. its funny many years ago i worked for them . as the factory was in Basingstoke. it was called Lancing Linde then. i was there until there until 2005, its all gone now the manufacturing, its just a storage and training depot, thank you for commenting as always very informative. cheer's Tony.
Hello Deano my friend. I am great Newcastle have won their game today. so yes i am top of the pops. The quality of the bachmann figures are worth the money. on ebay some quality are £20+ each. I hope everything is well with you. until next time happy modelling....cheer's Tony.
You and me both! Brian. i am hoping to put some plans together this weekend. but if the weather is good then it will be the garden i will have to sort out. as it looks like Viet Nam jungles. and we know how wild they grow. many thanks again for commenting. cheer's now Tony.
I appreciate that very much Tez. let us know when your birthday is and i will put a message up on the community page, until next time. it cheer's for now Tony.
Well-down Tony. I like the design of this build. I hope I can make an updated video of my layout before I have to take it down and move house. I was supposed to be here for life, maybe I have been given early release for good behaviour All the best. Martin. (Thailand)
Hy Tony, the Ford Anglia police car that I was going to add a flashing blue light to is a no go as the blue light on the model is smaller than a grain of rice and solid. There is no way of drilling it out to fit in the tiny led light. I am going to look for a police van, I would really like a Black Mariha but so far I can't find one with a light on the roof. All things come to he who waits 🤗
Hi Barra. thanks for the heads up. i must admit the Ford Anglia did look tricky to do. a police van would be a better option. plus there is more space inside to hide the Resistor. many thanks for commenting. and good luck with your new project. cheer's for now Tony.
Great work (as always Tony) once again. A suggestion for your buildings, instead of two buildings, one either side of the steps, you could make one two storey building; one storey to the left of the steps; one storey to the right; joined by the second storey that passes over the steps (a sort of 'n' shaped building so to speak.) When you showed the photo of the real building I had to smile at the graffiti, 'Monty Stinks'. Local lads who don't get on perhaps....or could it be US General Patton passed that way during the war!!!
Good morning Alfie. i may add the Graffiti Monty Stinks just as a cameo. i do like your suggestion. but i would like to keep the station as a single story. the main reason it the build is to high it will probably spoil the mainline video shots behind the station. great thought. thanks again for commenting, keep them coming as they do add thoughts and ideas. thanks again my friend. Tony.
I find your videos elevating, this one moreso than others. Really exciting progress Tony. Looking forward to next week ( post my knee surgery! ) Bye for now.
Love the witty start to your comment Peter. i hope the knee operation goes well. and hopefully a very speedy recovery. i do hope to start building the station soon. but i have to put my ideas onto paper. s i have a terrible memory. cheer's for now Tony.
Good Evening Tony doors doors every way but none I can walk through. I remember using those lifts when I was delivering goods nightmare to get the lift floor just right for the trolley pump truck. Any way that's enough of my memory flash back. Stay safe my friend. Stephen
Hello Stephen. I know what you mean i have come similar lifts in my various jobs. thanks again for commenting. stay safe and take care. best wishes Tony & Laura.
Hi Tony, very interesting video as I’m thinking I may need a lift or two at Exehaven here and there. Loved the way the windows came together and I’m really looking forward to buildings going around them! Hope you’re well, cheers mate, John
Good evening John, you may do. the woven fine stainless mesh would work better for N gauge. as it is a lot finer. thank you for commenting. cheer's for now. Tony. we are doing really well thanks.
I expect the Vicar's Wife will want to put her bundle of washing on one of the trolley's in the lift, rather than carrying it all the way up the stairs, especially as she is slightly overweight, and has a chesty cough, a dodgy knee, on account of so many role ups, and cheap woodbine, from Smokie Joe, in the pub. According to Mrs Tubbs, it is probably something to do with Bob The Brickie, and the Whole in The Wall Job by all accounts. I dare say, Jerry Springer will be asking if he can borrow, some tea bags, that have gone astray from the Station Master's Office. But no doubt the lift also will be a godsend for Mrs Simms after one too many. Maybe Bob The Brickie, and Mrs Simms, can be employed through a subcontract arrangement, to help build and install the lift on time.
I always feel `lifted` (sorry couldn't resist using your words) when watching your videos Tony. Amazed at how you plan and work out your builds, food for thought and inspiration to us all many thanks for that, keep them coming as always looking forward to next stage of Tyne Dock station re-build. Take care regards Barry. 👍👏
Evening Barry. no worries mate. the words were there to be used. at least you were on the up. not down. lol. Model railways are for fun. and thats what we do. by the way. i do like your welders work shop. great stuff. have a great weekend. hey we get an extra day off. take care for now Tony.
Was that Vera standing out side the pub with the workers. “Now pet I need to know who was behind the pub last night. Come on tell me then get back to work love. “ 😂
Hi Tony -As always informative and great entertainment . Nice to see a photo of the station but I thought the Monty Stinks comment was a little harsh !! Cheers Kev
Once again, not only does the attention to detail stand out, but the coverage of so many nuances that would not necessarily be missed, yet add so much is uncanny. Beautiful builds again, and quite another Master Class in scratch building work.
Good morning Anthony. I agree with you whole heartedly. i could have left so much of detail out of this build in the video. hence why the video is nearly 40 minutes long. some of the followers of this channel have copied and built some of the builds that i have done in the past. so i did leave as much of the building process for this reason. i always try and be as helpful as i can. and pass the information on. thank you again for your kind words. cheer's Tony.
Hi Tony welcome from a very very hot Thailand Tyne Dock is beginning to look good I have been looking through the smart models web site and have asked if the can deliver to Thailand they also do a lot of downloads which might be very useful so thank you for that useful website The lift is brilliant I don't know where you get your ideas from but thank you for sharing All the best see you next week
Hi James its early morning over here in England. and the sun is shinning. and i think we are in for a perfect day. fingers crossed. Smart models do some good bits and bobs. thanks again for commenting and have a great weekend. cheer's Tony.
Good morning Terry. Vera Stanhope. well spotted. she has got the whip out and got the lads back to work very scary. lol. £6.99 on Ebay. i think there is a few left. cheer's for now Tony.
Another great idea and build mate, just one point though, I doubt the lift door would be facing the platform edge because of the risk of trucks and barrows rolling out on to the track.
From a very selfish point of view....I just love the builds,I enjoy the ingenuity and obvious love you have for your fantastic layout......Friday wouldn’t be Friday now without a latte and slice of North Eastern 😊
Thank you very much David. by the way i love the comment. I do challenge myself to make the Friday deadline each week, the cut of being Wednesday evening. its been was a massive step forward towards the build this week. with bank holiday looming more time may be spent outdoors. unless the weather changes. have a great weekend my friend. and see you again next time. cheer's for now Tony.
Good video, nice idea Theoretically does the lift go down to the side ramp from street level that leads towards the stairs in the platform, my visualisation not on the ball for this one
Hello James. theoretically the lift would meet up with the tunnel and the goods would shifted down the ramp under the bridges. i think that's how i would have visualised it. cheer's for now Tony.
There's nothing that escapes your eyes Dave. well spotted. your right it is vera stanhope. £6.99 on ebay. She appeared ever since i built that police box. LOl. have a great weekend my friend. Tony.
Hi Tony! What an enjoyable little build, full of detail! Will look great amongst the station buildings! Cheers, Ian.
Good morning Ian. looks like you have been playing catch up with the videos. even though its a back drop station. we still have to treat as a premier build. if that makes sense. many thanks again for commenting. cheer's for now Tony.

I expect the Vicar's Wife will want to put her bundle of washing on one of the trolley's in the lift, rather than carrying it all the way up the stairs, especially as she is slightly overweight, and has a chesty cough, a dodgy knee, on account of so many role ups, and cheap woodbine, from Smokie Joe, in the pub. According to Mrs Tubbs, it is probably something to do with Bob The Brickie, and the Whole in The Wall Job by all accounts. I dare say, Jerry Springer will be asking if he can borrow, some tea bags, that have gone astray from the Station Master's Office. But no doubt the lift also will be a godsend for Mrs Simms after one too many. Maybe Bob The Brickie, and Mrs Simms, can be employed through a subcontract arrangement, to help build and install the lift on time.
So many character's, its almost a soap opera. many thanks again for commenting. cheer's for now Tony.
I always feel `lifted` (sorry couldn't resist using your words) when watching your videos Tony. Amazed at how you plan and work out your builds, food for thought and inspiration to us all many thanks for that, keep them coming as always looking forward to next stage of Tyne Dock station re-build. Take care regards Barry. 👍👏
Evening Barry. no worries mate. the words were there to be used. at least you were on the up. not down. lol. Model railways are for fun. and thats what we do. by the way. i do like your welders work shop. great stuff. have a great weekend. hey we get an extra day off. take care for now Tony.
Was that Vera standing out side the pub with the workers.
“Now pet I need to know who was behind the pub last night. Come on tell me then get back to work love. “ 😂
Well spotted, Vera Stanhope has gone back to the future, i think it must have something to do with the Yorkshire Police Box. lol...take care Tony.
Hi Tony -As always informative and great entertainment . Nice to see a photo of the station but I thought the Monty Stinks comment was a little harsh !!
Cheers Kev
Hi Kev, i agree it is a harsh comment. many thanks for stopping by. cheer's for now Tony.
Thats some intricate work mate, superbly done as always.
Glad you enjoyed the video. the funny this we wont see half of it,. cheer's for now Tony,
Well done Tony, it's looking really good
Thank you Phil. for your very enthusiastic comment. its the beginning of hopefully an interesting build. all the best my friend. Tony.
Brilliant work Tony👍📐🖊
Glad you enjoyed it Charlie. its great to hear from you. cheer's for now Tony.
Once again, not only does the attention to detail stand out, but the coverage of so many nuances that would not necessarily be missed, yet add so much is uncanny. Beautiful builds again, and quite another Master Class in scratch building work.
Good morning Anthony. I agree with you whole heartedly. i could have left so much of detail out of this build in the video. hence why the video is nearly 40 minutes long. some of the followers of this channel have copied and built some of the builds that i have done in the past. so i did leave as much of the building process for this reason. i always try and be as helpful as i can. and pass the information on. thank you again for your kind words. cheer's Tony.
Hi Tony welcome from a very very hot Thailand Tyne Dock is beginning to look good
I have been looking through the smart models web site and have asked if the can deliver to Thailand they also do a lot of downloads which might be very useful so thank you for that useful website
The lift is brilliant I don't know where you get your ideas from
but thank you for sharing
All the best see you next week
Hi James its early morning over here in England. and the sun is shinning. and i think we are in for a perfect day. fingers crossed.
Smart models do some good bits and bobs. thanks again for commenting and have a great weekend. cheer's Tony.
Great stuff Tony, love the lift (no song involved lol).
Hi Andy. that is a shame i was hoping for a Oncor. lol. take care buddy. cheer's for now Tony.
Was that 'Vera' outside the pub on a case 🤔
Great video Tony and nice work, keep them coming.
Regards Terry.
Good morning Terry. Vera Stanhope. well spotted. she has got the whip out and got the lads back to work very scary. lol. £6.99 on Ebay. i think there is a few left. cheer's for now Tony.
@@TONYNORTHEASTERN What you need now Tony is her tatty blue Land Rover!
LOL.
good build nice work keep up the good vid you do on the channel lot time taken in to the builds in all your builds you do on the layout
Hello Lee. thank you for stopping by. that the thing with our hobby you can be as slow as like. take care Tony.
Another great idea and build mate, just one point though, I doubt the lift door would be facing the platform edge because of the risk of trucks and barrows rolling out on to the track.
Good point! John. very much appreciated. i think we may have room to add a barrier. but we shall see. cheer's for now my friend. Tony.
From a very selfish point of view....I just love the builds,I enjoy the ingenuity and obvious love you have for your fantastic layout......Friday wouldn’t be Friday now without a latte and slice of North Eastern 😊
Thank you very much David. by the way i love the comment. I do challenge myself to make the Friday deadline each week, the cut of being Wednesday evening. its been was a massive step forward towards the build this week. with bank holiday looming more time may be spent outdoors. unless the weather changes. have a great weekend my friend. and see you again next time. cheer's for now Tony.
Good video, nice idea
Theoretically does the lift go down to the side ramp from street level that leads towards the stairs in the platform, my visualisation not on the ball for this one
Hello James. theoretically the lift would meet up with the tunnel and the goods would shifted down the ramp under the bridges. i think that's how i would have visualised it. cheer's for now Tony.
Did I spot Vera talking to the lads outside the pub - what's going on?
There's nothing that escapes your eyes Dave. well spotted. your right it is vera stanhope. £6.99 on ebay.
She appeared ever since i built that police box. LOl. have a great weekend my friend. Tony.
Hey Tony, thanks again for sharing⭐🌟🚂well done👍Regards Elizabeth @ Tauraco00
Glad you enjoyed it, Elizabeth. have a great bank holiday. cheer's for now Tony.
