And somewhat refreshing too! I think a lot of clubs can (accidentally or not) come across as a boys club where outsiders or newbies aren't made to feel welcome so it's fantastic to see Newhaven MRC actively trying to change that perception. Thanks for watching 😃
It was a brilliant exhibition this year - I think it's a new team that have taken charge and I have to say it shows! Yeah it was great to be able to cut between the two, I don't get that opportunity at most exhibitions 😅 Thanks for watching 🤩
So cool to see an Illinois Central passenger train in the UK. Something I never thought I would see. Always enjoy your videos, especially the layouts since there are very few UK modelers here in the southern US. Thanks for sharing! - Will
Was definitely nice to see some international layouts at the show. I can't admit to knowing much about them but in someways that makes them all the more fascinating. Thanks for watching 😃
Wow, fabulous video, That Model Railway Guy. Great layouts, live steam and a cab ride! You're a lucky to have had that. Many thanks for sharing your experience, it's no easy task to produce a vid like this, I'd say.
It was definitely nice to be able to have a few different things to feature rather than it all being layouts. The ca ride was a definite highlight! Thanks for watching 😃
Thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to record, edit and post this and other model railroad videos. I really don’t know how you guys manage to find the time for all of this whilst also keeping down a full time career. (Even if, as some say, it is the best hobby in the world). Thanks again.
You're welcome, to be honest these sorts of video are fairly easy to make. It's the layout build videos which are much harder to put together as they take ages to both film and edit. I partly work in the film/video industry already though so it's mostly second nature to me. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching 😃
No problem at all, glad you got to enjoy the show even after the fact. Yeah when they asked if I would have time to do a footplate ride I absolutely jumped at the opportunity. Thanks for watching 😃
Excellent video - many thanks, it as so good to seen Fenchurch, I love a terrier and LBSCR Improved Engine Green is such a fine colour - the whole event looked amazing
Glad you enjoyed it! The Terrier does look good in that livery - was the first time I'd ever managed to have a ride behind Fenchurch too so that was nice. Thanks for watching 🤩
Your narrative style - not to mention good camerawork - is very much h appreciated. It helps us viewers (much) better understand what we're watching. Both you and Dawn Quest are leading the way in this respect.
Glad you enjoyed it, it's a fine line between giving enough info and not being overwhelming. Funnily enough I felt that the camera work wasn't my best on this video (mainly because I was trying to rush round everything while still making time to chat with people) but I'm glad to know it was still enjoyable. Thanks for watching 😃
@@ThatModelRailwayGuy I enjoyed the video. The camerawork was especially good when filming the "real" trains! Informative narration is undervalued on YT / by YT-bers, IMO.
A massive THANKS to 'That Model Railway Guy' : Did the BB Event Justice, excellent. Obviously your endorsement of our Newhaven Club was brilliant; Of course we do what we do for all in The Community, but it's still great to get a little pat on the back. Thanks !
My pleasure Paul, thanks to all at the club for making me so welcome throughout the weekend and for taking the time to have a chat. Making these videos is a lot easier when you have some genuine talking points to feature. Keep up the great work and thanks for watching 😃
What a great show layouts of all size a themes cool. Live running train just takes it to next level fun. That club that is for everybody is awesome. Thank you so much for sharing made the start of my day. GOD BLESS from America 🚂 💕 🚂 💕 🚂 💕
❤ your set up and authenticity as the scenery is just as important. I loved making dioramas for 2 ww2 vehicles and kept my favourite ones- and that would take 24 hours just for a foot by foot - I gave a lot of them away when I was doing charity work
First time I’d been to the model railway exhibition there, well worth going. Great to meet you there and that modular narrow gauge layout was probably the best there. Although I loved the o gauge Frittenden land as well. Annoyingly I missed the gauge 1 Bullied Q1, must look harder next time.
That was definitely a good first show at Bluebell to attend! Lots of variety and exceptional modelling on display... I really liked Frittenden Road too, just shows what can be done in O gauge in a medium sized space. Thanks for watching 😃
Newhaven sound like they have a really good attitude. The scene needs more modern thinking to accompany the retro backdrop - or it will die out. I like the format of the video, alternating between the actual railway and layouts.
They really do! I found it very refreshing take on how to get people interested while also providing benefit to the community. Yeah it was great to be able to mix the model trains in with the real ones - it's not every exhibition where you can do that! Thanks for watching 🤩
Fantastic video, great locos and great layouts TMRG. Just goes to show you can have fun fantasy layouts (for the kids of course!!) Or more serious modelling. Once again a great video mate 😊
Hi Brian, ah I think you've clicked the wrong button as you've left a Super Thanks which is just a donation to the channel. If you want to get access to the Members videos you need to become a Channel Member either by clicking the Early Access link in the description or by clicking the "Join" button if you're on a desktop computer. That gives you access to all the Members Benefits on whatever device you're logged in on, including your TV. Really sorry about that - I appreciate UA-cam doesn't make it easy. You can try contacting them to get a refund for the Super Thanks if you still want to join up as a Member. Hope that helps 🤞
If you look just to the right of the play button there's a volume control that allows you to mute the sound if you don't want to listen to the music. Hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍
If you send me an email address I can take pictures of my vehicles and scenarios back- I dearly miss making them and I have made a few Vietnamese war ones too- I still have the glues and loads of material and unmade vehicles and artillery pieces- Best to say that I don’t make the vehicles as I have them all made by a professional model maker in the family
Hi there, the channel doesn't currently take submissions for features but if you ever exhibit at a model railway exhibition there's a good chance you might end up in one of the videos. Thanks for watching 👍
Fantastic video, thank you! It is awesome to see a club who acknowledges children and also is open to anyone for whatever reason.
And somewhat refreshing too! I think a lot of clubs can (accidentally or not) come across as a boys club where outsiders or newbies aren't made to feel welcome so it's fantastic to see Newhaven MRC actively trying to change that perception. Thanks for watching 😃
OK, that's inspired me to try and attend next year. Great video and nice that you kept cutting between the layouts and the real trains.

It's always nice to seem something a bit different! Thanks for watching 😃

I missed this one as I’m away working so your video is very much appreciated. Lucky to get on the footplate, great work!
Thanks

There were certainly some fantastic layouts on display. I think in previous years they have had WW2 themed layouts as well. Thanks for watching 😃
that rainbow layout is ADORABLE it has to be inspired by the concept art for lady from TATMR. happy late pride month hehe :D 🌈
It hadn't even occurred to me that it might have been inspired by Lady - it reminded me more of the style of Ivor The Engine. Thanks for watching 😃
Looks a most splendid day out! Must visit the Bluebell Railway sometime soon.
It's definitely a great railway to visit with lots of events happening throughout the year! Thanks for watching 😃
Fabulous video! .....really really enjoyed watching it through😃👍
Well done for making it all the way through - there was so much to see especially with 12" to 1' railway running outside 😉 Thanks for watching 👍

It really was! Glad you enjoyed it though and thanks for watching 😃

Yes... for the kids... 😉 Was great to see such a wide variety of modelling on display though. Thanks for watching 👍
Rainbow rock looks like something out of a doctor Seuss
It does have that kind of vibe! It reminds me of Ivor The Engine personally. Thanks for watching 😃
I love the music in your videos, where do you get it? Great video by the way!
Hi there, I write and record all the music heard on the channel myself. Glad you like it and thanks for watching 😃
@@ThatModelRailwayGuy You've done a great job!
Thanks
Thank you so much Brian! Really glad you enjoyed the video and thank you so much for supporting the channel! Thanks for watching 🤩
Thank you live the videos as a newbie to the hobby. How do I now access the members videos please? I also watch the Chanel on my TV?
Love the videos

@@ThatModelRailwayGuy no problems I’ll boot up my laptop top and take a look for that link
Hi, any idea when the Bluebell Model Railway Weekend for 2025 will be held? Would love to visit next year. :)
It's not been announced yet. I imagine they'll probably announce all their 2025 events shortly before the start of the season. Thanks for watching 😃
Update: Just announced as being the 29th & 30th June 2025 👍
That old boy in the engine doesn’t he own the whole estate
The Bluebell Railway is predominantly run and operated by volunteers. Thanks for watching 👍
Cool
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching 😃
Great video! Though I have to say the music is a bit too much... But very interesting otherwise.
If you look just to the right of the play button there's a volume control that allows you to mute the sound if you don't want to listen to the music. Hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍
@@ThatModelRailwayGuy But I want to hear what you say... 😄
What you didn’t see stepney
I did but Stepney lives in the museum currently. Thanks for watching 😃
