Those Utah Belt diesels are quite rare and special. Finding them so far from home is a wonderful surprise.
So I’ve been told, I had no idea about them! A bit of a fan special!
My first exhibition visit and it was an eye-opener. I was amazed and pleased at the diversity of people and the stunning exhibits. Fun to meet your good self too. I dragged a sceptical female friend along and she was equally amazed and even spread the word to some of her friends that it's a hobby that attracts a very wide variety of fans and not just older people. The Cheakamus Canyon layout was superb with the modelling of an eagle swooping to catch a fish out of the river an eye catcher. We found ourselves counting how many bears we could see. I loved all of it, especially the big Tri-ang layout and spent some time speaking to the owner's son about it all. Train Girl was great to talk to as well. Everything was enjoyable, how could it not be. 😊✨
That’s excellent to hear you enjoyed the exhibition Pauline! And it was great to meet you as well!
Maryborough looks awesome
Absolutely Matt!
The Lego one is, in my opinion, the best because of the detail included. I also build quite a few Lego locomotives so it was quite special to see them there.
A crowd favorite for sure Ben!
Great video mate! They all looked fantastic! The Maryborough station layout looked impressive! Cheers
Thank you Ken! Yes is a beautiful bit of work!
excellent video. Thanks Will for virtually taking me there when I couldn't get to the show in person.
Thank you Todd!
This is absolutely incredible.
Thank you Les!
Just started getting into this the skill level and the quality of the displays are brilliant👍. Just Subscribed loving the videos.
Great to hear David! Thank you for watching!
Nice video Will. I went on the sunday and I had a fantastic time! Maryborough was easily a stand out for me. I have always wanted to see that layout in person. It was also nice to meet you as well. - Nicholas.
Thank you Nicholas! Hopefully next time you see it, it’s running a bit better!
Likewise mate!
Excellent video Will James
Thank you!
Will, there's some seriously good footage in this video. You've shown me things I failed to see with my own eyes five weeks ago. Binalong was the standout for me, having never seen it in the flesh before.
Thank you very much Dan!
What is the guy (in the yellow shirt) doing at Binalong?
Will, yet another great exhibition report. Looks like a great time was had by all.
The Maryborough station looked awesome, such detail. The Tallarook layout looked great as well.
Thyank you for sharing.
Cheers, and stay safe, Michael
Thank you Michael!
Some excellent layouts indeed!
Once again, great job and thank you Will.
Thank you!
excellent video
Thank you!
Cool thanks mate
Thank you for watching!
Hi Will, great video footage and good coverage of what is a very large exhibition. Thanks for producing this record - I found it really useful as I could not attend this year.
Thank you very much Stuart!
nice video will, as you probably saw we had quite a bit of fun running the Murri layout
Thanks Rohan!
Maryborough was probably my favourite but the detail in the Japanese N scale layout was amazing.
I agree David, that Japanese layout it is always a treat to see!
Very good video Will
Thank you Jordan!
Nice thanks
Thank you for watching!
Very nice video that you have picked together there something on May do for my channel in the nearby future
Thanks! I mean more folks at the exhibitions the better!
Thanks Will, for capturing all of the layouts that you did. When you mentioned T scale l was expecting something else. T scale here in the US is between N & HO scale. I've never seen such a small scale before, looks like I'll have to come back sometime and see these layouts. Maryborough station layout is a wonderful piece of work.
Sounds like you are describing TT scale at 1/10th inch per foot giving 1/120th scale between HO and N scale. Dates back to about 1946 but did not widely catch on.
Our local state Victorian Railways system built a huge TT scale layout that they displayed at our State Fair called the Royal Melbourne Show. Displayed from about 1959 to 1974 growing every year with scratch built VR equipment that is now commercially available in HO.
TT stood for Table Top size. Peco track has reintroduced TT track in the UK this year hoping to get the scale started again. Gauged at 12mm.
@@johnd8892 Thanks for clarifying that John. It has been over 2 year's since I came across a layout that used to feature at a train show in St Paul MN. It wasn't there last weekend when I was there. I didn't remember there were 2 tee's. Thank's John for the history behind TT scale. I am a Melbournian born and raised, l never saw that layout at the show.
@@adampage8030 searching UA-cam for TT model trains HP will show a lot more about the TT scale trains around the world as well as the HP products pioneering US market.
Never found the VR layout on film but was covered yearly in the VR staff newsletter. I would say the most watched in person model railway in Australia with crowds three deep for ten hours a day for the ten days of the show for over ten years. Spent near a hundred hours watching it in its automated block signalled operation but never saw a derailment.
Thank you Adam!
Video looked great mate I went there as well the puffing billy stuff was amazing in my opinion alltho I think the video was a bit late seeing the time of the event but great vid
Also did you say mongulk becuase I feel offended as someone who went on PBR yesterday as of saying this and live with the creek in my backyard
Hey Caleb. Thanks for watching. I’m not 100% sure what you mean by ‘it was a bit late’ I shot it at the exhibition, and had to edit it down, narrate it etc and my videos come out weekly.
Also I definitely say Monbulk, Im very familiar with the area. So I don’t think you need to be ‘offended’
Thanks for watching
Thank you for replying at re-informing me
@@CalebsCrossingsYT you’re welcome!
Future me, I’m hoping this was a joke on my part, because what I said was stupid to be honest lmao
Maryborough and Tallarook were the 2 that I enjoyed
Nice choices Jordy!
Good to say g’day at caufield Will. Any layout updates scheduled?
Thank you!
Not currently, unfortunately most folks are still a bit apprehensive about me filming their layouts but I can only keep trying!
Hi Will, are there many N scale Australian layouts about. I had Dawes Creek a few years ago here in the UK but except for some ready to run locos , N seems to have disappeared in Australia?
Hey Dave! There a number of them, but no where near as many as Australian HO!
However with Auscision now about to release N scale RtR stock, I think we’re about to see a boom in Australian N Scale!
Love the McKinley pass the Victorian station at the start is beautiful. I have a question why is German brands so expensive is it got to do with quality or it comes from overseas
Thanks Damien!
I think it’s a factor of both, as well as popularity, I think a lot of folks who model overseas prototypes go for US/CA or Uk
Nice to see some European representation there. Even if your pronunciation was a little off LOL.
Absolutely James! I mean I can barley pronounce most English names!
hey will, those last 2 layouts (your favorite ones) r they run on like a tram track instead of rails
The T gauge layouts? They run on a linear motor drive system
@@WillJamesRailways oh ok i dont understand it whats a linear motor drive system
@@matthewmassarotti2596 The track is made of tiny coils of wire acting as electromagnets, and the trains and boats have magnets underneath. As each coil is powered in turn, the magnets (and trains) get dragged along. Just like a normal motor, but unwrapped and stretched out, which is where the "linear" bit comes in. The actual track surface is paper, to improve the appearance and make a smoother running surface. I repeated that explanation many times during the show!
Like a cable system?
