All I can say about this video is. EXCELLENT some brilliant layouts too.
It looked a good show.
Well done for doing such a brilliant video, keep up the good work mate.
I love model Railway's as much as I love my big real Railway's 😊
And Crewe, well what a great place to hold a model railway show there too.
Anyway all the best from.

Excellent layouts some classics, like the 2 rail hydrex’s
They were some lovely ones there, thanks Yozzer
Thanks for visiting our show
Thank you for a awesome show you put on.
Excellent film. Thanks for taking the time to post it.
It was a great weekend and so many fab layouts. Well filmed and put together simon.
They had some decent layouts Indeed At this event, great video Simon.
I enjoyed that Simon
Thank you for filming Penna Lane tmd, iam glad you got to have a go running it this time Simon, it was also good to see you again.
Wow - nicely shot and edited video.
So very good to see so many post-1970 layouts and models on show here. So many of the videos of this years shows show barely any post 1970 modelling going on which - although there are some absolutely superb pre-1970 layouts and models on show - is a very bad omen for the future of the hobby. No such problem here though - in fact here I think almost all you've shown is post 1970 - so well done all - hope for the hobby's future after all!
The layouts they had on display at rail riders look nice, I've seen some of these at other exhibitions before. Also The layouts based at the heritage center are quite nice.
The pizza layout is actually called "Holdbox Flat", just to let you know :)
Sorry if this sounds rude, it's not meant to
It is indeed "Holdbox Flat" and is N Gauge but using a mix of scale stock.
Thank you, I had no information on this as the booklet mentioned the stand was suppose to be Paisley Canal. But two different layouts were there instead and went off the laminate sheets on the table
@@simontrainsmodelrailway Due to recent I'll health I was unable to complete Paisley Canal. I brought Micro Cement instead and Hold Box Flat to fill the gaps.
