A tale of three steam trams
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 вер 2024
- Three steam tram locomotives working over the Craigcorrie & Dunalistair Railway.
These are: a Fourdees RTR Glyn Valley Tramway 'Sir Theodore', a Tebee Models freelance saddle tank, and my old freelance tram loco 'Marijn' originally built 35 years ago, all in 009.
A steam sound track was edited using Virtualdub and Audacity. This was substituted for the original track.
What an absolute gem of a NG layout.
Wow! Now I'm feeling nostalgic. I wanna be there. Beautiful detail. Modeling mastery. Great eye.
Such amazing detail. It's easy to forget it's a model railroad layout...
How charming , lovely to watch , love steam . 👍
Really good, is narrow gauge in its purest form!
Fab! I want to go there on holiday
Thanks all, I'm glad you like my videos!
Great video! Great design! Great modeling! Great operation! One of my favorites! Keep it up!
How wonderful, a truly beautiful railway. Thumbs up from me.
Thanks, much obliged!
Lovely modelling and a great video Ted - thank you!
That is such a beatiful layout, especially the main green station looks absolutly superb. Makes me very jealous you know haha. You truly have such an amazing eye for detail, and have inspired me to add a small narrow gauge subsection to my layout, where large express locomotive can transition at a station for narrow gauge locomotives to carry passengers to a small wharf/ beach. Thank you!
What realistic, quaint scenes....I want to go live there....
Thank you!
Those houses at the bit , the train comes around the bend then goes back, those houses are so like some in Irvine Scotland, just great stuff, great skill keep it up, very enjoyable.
This is beautiful, great work.
Awesome detail and fantastic scenery
I must say this is one of the most realistic looking layouts I've ever seen. The sound you've added is the only added sound on youtube that I can't find any faults in. Great work, I look forward to more.
Thanks both - the sound editing is a hobby within a hobby. And there are faults in it, but I know where they are and you don't!
If all goes well I will indeed be at Expong, as a visitor.
what an amazing railway
Amazing. Thank you for posting.
Amazing, magical !
Many thanks...
Beautifull layout. Thank you
simply beauiful!
couldn't help but click that subscribe button, by the way
Ted, you're a master modeler and a film maker. Fantastic camera work on a superb layout with realistic sounds.... almost like it's a real life fairy tale!! Awesome :)

Hello Ritul, good to hear from you again. And thanks for your kind reply. I hope all is well your side and you're still an active modeller.
all the best
Ted
As of this comment, there are 10 miserable people in this world. I cannot how anyone could down thumb this splendid little railway.
Stunning. :)
Ca fait très Ecosse tout ça, avec le four pout le maltage du houblon. J'aime la culture celtique, je suis conquis.
This is a great layout always a pleasure to watch your videos.
Are you able to supply the dimensions of the layout?
I see that Peco , Heljan and Bachmann are ll bringing out some RTR Locos and Rollingstock in 009
So eine wunderhübsche Anlage. I watched it several times. But what about this seldom figure at 2:40 ?
Excellent layout set.... It seems that one doesn't need 45 cars behind a loco to give realism... although 45 cars is a nice deal... no doubt.
- The only question I have is this: Is it true that locomotives... especially older ones... can only go forwards?
What a beautiful layout! Excuse my ignorance, but what is the difference between a steam team and a steam train?
A steam tram was the predecessor of an electric or diesel-powered tram, usually running next to or in a public highway.
Do you have a 2D layout map of the track
It is on my website at www.009dutch.nl/cdr/. Go to the Bird's Eye View page.
Incredible, really realistic! Where did you get your trains?
+Sir_Fedora - more than minecraft!
Most of the trains were kitbashed or scratchbuilt. A few are ready-made models, such as the Fourdees Glyn Valley locomotive.
+Ted Polet cool, thanks! How well does your tebee loco run, and which chassis did you use? Thanks
Ps- this is one of the best videos I have ever seen! Thanks for putting in so much effort!
its toby
Are these trams ??
Or Railway Engines ??
You could say they are small railway locomotives, but they were made for roadside work. For safety reasons the rods and cranks were shielded with skirts. Due to their working alongside or in the public road they were known as steam trams.
The Britain we miss the most. Smell, sounds, colors and that unique mood..... 🇬🇧🏴
beautiful model :)
3 years since my last comment and I still love coming back to watch your videos again and again. Truly a masterpiece of model railway videography.

Very atmospheric, great stuff!
Again, a great video. I enjoyed it very much, thank you for sharing it. The detail you have put into this layout is fantastic.
It's one of my favourite videos. I always come back to it.. just a pleasure really.
Thanks Nic, I had almost forgotten about it! Glad you like it.
Superb modelling, beautifully filmed. The soundtrack is a brilliant addition. I consider myself outclassed
Ted,
Fabulous! Your railway seems to have a life of its own and the videos with their wonderfully dubbed sound are a marvel.
No wonder my grandson George said "You would think it was real!" He hasn't seen this one yet.
Are you coming to ExpoNG this year?
Noel
Absolutely magic.
It's reopened now
Está bem realista está maqueta parabéns. Abraço! Rio de Janeiro Brazil
Excellent layout with flawless trackwork.amd extremely well performing engines on 009. A real pleasure to watch👍👍👍👍
An excellent video. Hello from the Tracy Mountain Railway in Colorado. ♡ T.E.N.
Fantastic layout, superb camera and sound works, beautiful models, excellent manouvres.
I remember the Hancock.Mander layouts they inspired me to build a 009 layout in my loft.This layout brings back the memories of my one sadly now gone when I moved house ten years ago ....This though is superb.
Thanks, Colin - P D Hancock and David Mander were my early inspirators as well.
I would also add the superb work of J.Ahern and his Madder Valley Railway now at the Pendon Museum
Agreed!
How wonderful is this! 😃 Top stuff!
What chassis are you using in the saddle tank locomotive ?
Lovely, nice Video, nice Layout, well done Engines.
Wow nice action sound and artistry.
One of the best ive seen.
Remarkable
Wonderful, just wonderful.
Nice
That saddle tank looks remarkably familiar...
Did you use a Kerr Stuart engine as the basis?
The freelance saddle tank was made from a 3D printed body shell designed by Tom Bell (Tebee Models). It is indeed loosely based on a Kerr Stuart.
Mind if I inquire about the motor? I'd like to get into 009, and don't know where to start in terms of locomotives.
The saddle tank is powered by a Kato 11-104 chassis. The model was made for an 11-103, which is slightly shorter but has the same power unit. The side skirts hide the unnatural wheelbase.
Piękna makieta kolei, a jeszcze piękniejsze dźwięki na tej makiecie.
Coś wspaniałego, balsam na uszy .
Thanks for your message, Rysiek. I translated your reply. I hope you read English. The sound is edited in afterwards using my computer!
Superbe ! Merci pour cette belle vidéo !
Merci pour votre réponse!
Brilliant, the attention to detail is just astounding. Have always wanted to try narrow gauge and this really encourages me How you get the sounds in so well?
I make up a sound track using Audacity to mix various sources. This is timed to the video using Virtualdub, which takes about one hour's work for each minute of video. After the sound track is completed, I remove all the original sound from the video and substitute the new track.
Awesome bro
Lovely locks and a magnificent layout
Unique. Exquisite detail. Impressive how you chose such an exotic train system. Keep up the great work.
This is one of the best layouts I've ever seen! You Limeys don't screw around, do you? I've been to the show at Ally Pally and this one beats them all! Best from Canada!
What part of Great Britain is this supposed to be? Beautiful modeling.
Excellent detail great layout really great!!!
