Hi Richard, Your find was a bargain. You've done a wonderful job of improving and weathering the model. Looks brilliant and so realistic! This is what makes our hobby so much fun! Cheers, Karl
Excellent video Richard. The additional Cement building looks superb. The building you feature at the end was the lower half of a signal box, I think the kit manufacturer was a company called Knightwing or something similar. Based in the North of England. Glad to see it properly installed on your layout. Looks fantastic.
Good find and great work. Love the look of the orange sodium lights where the lorries load. Much more realistic than the cold bluey-white often used in models these days, as really the bluey whites only really came in to common use in the last 20 years or so. As you have BR blue, I am assuming you are late 70s to early 90s? So probably most lighting will be the warmer shades. Even fluorescent strips are warm compared to the blue-white of somevmodern LEDs. Great work. I'm loving it.
Thank you for the kind comments. Yes it was a bit of a golden find. Yes I am modelling late 70’s early 80’s. The yellowish lights were around back then. I think they are more atmospheric. The lights on the concourse have gone ( they were really cheap) and need replacing. I may replace them with the yellowish lights? Thanks for watching Richard
Interesting looking building one thought is that handrail would not be alongside the loading area assuming that would take Lorries you would need Armco to protect the structure especially the exposed columns, handrail would afford no,protection and would easily be wiped out by the first lorry which came into contact with it

Thank you Karl. Yes it was a bargain. You can find some nuggets sometimes at shows.
Brilliant scene, the lighting brings that industrial feeling so alive. Feel like I’m on night shift, better make a flask!
Thank you. Better make it a flask of soup as its getting colder!
Great detail. Amazing layout!
Your level of weathering & lighting is just right , you got a bargain and really sets the scene to that part of your layout. John
Thank you. I did indeed get a bargain this time.
Cement industrial building looks a great addition and bargain, nice touch the lighting regards Barry.
Yes thank you. Its second hand. Wanted £25.00 for it. Barted him down to £20.00! You can get some really good deals at model railway shows sometimes.

Yes looks good on that end of the sidings.
Brilliant.... you sure got a bargain there for 320 and it does blend in perfectly with the other heavy industrial buildings on your layout :)
Thank you for the kind comments. It was a bargain for sure.
Great Layout and update the Cement addition looks impressive

@CHESEABUN great to hear. I only found your layout a few months back and have really enjoyed what I have seen.
@@dibsyardshuntinglayout There are plenty more vids and plenty to come. Thanks for watching.

Hi, the thing you point out on top of the tower is likely the top of a bucket elevator.
Ok. Thanks. I didn’t know that. Richard
great work on the layout keep up the great vid on the layout thanks lee
Thank you. There will be more... Richard
Its a Kibri HO concrete batch plant, for ready mixed concrete, you need to position the building so the cement road trucks can back under it,
Someone also mentioned Faller.? Maybe both? The trucks can reverse in from the other end.
I used to have one of those! It's a European kit made by Faller, Gaugemaster just rebox it.
Hi, didn’t know that.. Richard
Twenty quid for a nice building like that? Bargain. The weathering and lighting really makes it stand out.
Thank you for the kind comments
