Great stuff man! Love the creativity on display! Reminds me I need to kick on with my own. A pros and cons video will be interesting as I have used my layout to get my mojo back and experiment!
That really is a fantastic little shunting layout you have built there. Lots of operating scope for such a small place. It feels like you have built your layout similar to the methodology which I built mine. Much is scratch built, I have grass scatter made from sieved and painted sawdust. My home made static grass application tool (fly swatter and strainer) like yours works, but it needs more power. I am thinking of upgrading the transformer unit in it as I have seen this fibre on UA-cam.
You shunter and tender is definitely better executed than mine, Andrew. I really need to get the connecting between mine replacement with the smaller plug and socket I bought. The wires were way too stiff on the first. Your shunter round really nice and slow, and it's not even re-geared like mine either! Top job Andrew, I'm looking to seeing more progress in the future. Have you thought of adding another module on the end? Maybe add an indoor warehouse scene on the far left end where the track goes into a doorway? Or something else like a dairy or brewery between the right hand module and the fiddle yard. The world is your lobster, really.
Thanks Dibley! I’m already on it :) There are some things I wish I’d done differently, and now this is as good as done I’d like a mini-project to be getting on with. So I’m thinking of exactly as you say - and it will be as intended, which is the unloading area for the Goods In to the bakery. I just have to figure out how I’m going to juice the frog of an electrofrog point if I’m going to wire the blades and not use a point motor.
@@andrewd8853 Awesome. I'll look forward to it. My points are controlled by wire in tube, and a switch controlling them switches the polarity of the frog. Very much like Luke Nobel has done here: ua-cam.com/video/C15_4Vhz6ps/v-deo.html
Love it. I could watch shunting videos all day.😊
Thank you kind Sir! ;)
looks great

Thanks! Will do!
Those do seem to be awefully big boxfiles. The Pugs really need a crew. The overall look and atmosphere are excellent.
Nice running session
That was so enjoyable , just shows how much fun you can have with a small layout .
I hope Dougal and Ted approve 😉
Rumbled! ;)
@@andrewd8853 I won't tell anyone, promise 😉
Loving your layout. Feels I the same kind of ilk as mine.

A rail bus/rail car/ Class 121 DMU be good for your passangers service or a tankloco + push'n'pull trailer 😎
