Dawn. I'm absolutely gobsmacked and delighted by this. To choose Tellindalloch in Autumn as your favourite layout of 2024 has made me very proud. Thank you so much.
few days late to watch this, but been looking forward to your 2024 list after discovering your channel last year. I am a returnee to the hobby after 40 years...gonna sit with a beer and watch...thankyou. Happy new year to you and yours fea Scotland.
Well deserved as the builder is a super guy. We met up with him a couple of times during the summer. Our house arrived alter its 10 weeks in the building and will eventually look superb above the tunnels, though the maker did cheat somewhat in sneaking back into the Village Hall to continue modelling into the night, TMC Challenge indeed. Love David and Lily.
HNY to you, Dawn & Grumps. A great list of layouts there. My favourite was the coal mine created by the Dutch chap. Nice to see that at least one of you has sartorial intelligence... 🙃
Some well chosen layouts, dad dancing and character 'eating' Personally, I'd be happy with the Toblerone, but I'm sure the lucky recipient will have something beautifully crafted by yourself, and not out of a banana skin 😆 Happy New year 🎉
Love that black dress, Dawn! Grumpy is just about the best we've seen in model railway photography techniques, BTW. Ron & Heather JAGRAF/X in Frederick, Colorado. 🚂 🐕 🐈 😅😊
Looking good, even if still `under the weather`. Again a cracking review of the year and the layouts. Thank heavens we still have `individuals` who enjoy modelling for the fun of it. Me ? Well as always its the `Challenge` as to see of its possible or I can do it. Oh yes, and the Morgan tappets are 98% done. Take care. x
Brilliant! First time visit to your channel and before I’ve even got to the end of this vid, just had to say a big hat’s off for your wicked rendition of ‘The Ladykillers’. Classic movie with a stellar cast recreated in appropriate style. Brilliant!
Dawn all of the layouts are winners with each one being unique. Thank you for sharing your choices. A Happy New Year to you and Mr Grumpy and looking forward to your model railway quests in 2025.
I am in a total state of shock that my layout has been included in your top 10 layouts of 2024, thank you Dawn and for inspiring me to do something different.
@ Solent Summit is Gosport Clubs whole layout. I belong to Gosport Club, but Los Tanimals and my other layout, Hells Glen,( which won best in Show today at Wessex Group Show, Frome), are totally mine. Cheers, Bob.
What a great NY video. I am humbled that you have Keane’s Cove on your list - thank you. I hope to show the layout during 2025 as it has only been out of the house 3 times! This year I will also be producing OO scale kits to bring a wider range of structures to the market. Best wishes for 2025 🚂
Two of those i've seen and both are in my top 10 for their scales. I've made note of the other ones in your top 10 to see if they will be appearing at any of the shows i'll be doing this year
Thanks once more Dawn for bringing style and glamour to our beloved hobby! As for Beaky Banana Bird, have you (and Grumpy) considered taping it to a board and auctioning it at Southeby's in New York? A previous non-celebrity banana went for millions recently!!!
Just seen the above vid and thought I should mention this in case you or the readers do not know about the following unusually located one. There is a lovely (rather large) model railway (museum) in Hungary in Keszthely. Vadászati és Modellvasút Múzeum - there are some pics. Forget the other museum that is together with this if you don't like stuffed animals. I actually stumbled upon it by total accident while visiting the Palace.
Great video but Grumpy needs training to stop biting and it stands to reason that he likes the layout where people are eaten because look what he did too poor Beaky, lol. Great choice, Jersey Bill
Good stuff. Perhaps make 2025 about attending some more finescale (don't like the term but it serves a purpose) shows as there's a whole world and level of model railways you seem unaware of
Dawn lives "down south" so that's why. Maybe you can do a video of your top 10, maybe even inspire us 'soft southerners' to venture pass the Watford Gap? PS we hope to visit up there soon
Are you coming to Doncaster in February. To the model railway exhibition. I hope you do. I would love to meet you. Living in Bawtry, I'm only 9 miles away. So my 10 year old grandson always comes with me. He's getting more into it. He's not afraid to approach the owner and start asking questions. So if your exhibiting. Expect to get grilled. 😅😂 hope to see you both there.
I haven’t been invited to exhibit but hopefully one day! 😊🤞🏻 It would be great to visit but I know my schedule is pretty jam packed in February. Your grandson sounds brilliant!!
Model Trains not interesting.. Dawn Quest herself the UA-cam Vlogging hostess, TV Producer and Journalist off Model RailWay Quest and what's she's wearing Currently very very very very interesting indeed!!!!!!!!!
Dawn. I'm absolutely gobsmacked and delighted by this. To choose Tellindalloch in Autumn as your favourite layout of 2024 has made me very proud. Thank you so much.
Aw, well deserved. Tellindalloch is beautiful Terry - a masterpiece! Happy New Year!
Wow thankyou for including my layout on the list, quite unexpected - and lovely to meet you!
Well deserved - it's a beautiful layout, you've done a brilliant job!
few days late to watch this, but been looking forward to your 2024 list after discovering your channel last year. I am a returnee to the hobby after 40 years...gonna sit with a beer and watch...thankyou. Happy new year to you and yours fea Scotland.
That's a great selection of layouts, Dawn and Dylan has been dancing to the song ....cheers James 😊👍
Happy New Year James and Dylan! xx
@modelrailwayquest Thank you. Best wishes for 2025 to you and Grumpy 😊👍
great layouts, dawn you also look stunning , thank you for being here❤❤
Thank you! xx
Dawn each of those layouts were stunning congratulations to everyone
They were - but a difficult choice as so many to choose from, and that's only the ones I've seen personally!
Well deserved as the builder is a super guy. We met up with him a couple of times during the summer.
Our house arrived alter its 10 weeks in the building and will eventually look superb above the tunnels, though the maker did cheat somewhat in sneaking back into the Village Hall to continue modelling into the night, TMC Challenge indeed. Love David and Lily.
Thanks! Brilliant and distinctively different to the stuff over here in Switzerland. - Carlo
Delightful selection - thank you. Happy New Year Year to you both and happy modelling in 2025.
Thank you for including my layout, the R&J Colliery in the list 😃
You're very welcome - you've created a fantastic layout and I love it.
Saw it at the Rapido exhibition - lovely layout!
HNY to you, Dawn & Grumps. A great list of layouts there. My favourite was the coal mine created by the Dutch chap.
Nice to see that at least one of you has sartorial intelligence... 🙃
That's a beautiful layout. I don't think Grumpy knows what sartorial means.. Happy New Year to you!
Cheers Dawn & Grumpy for including me in your top ten ish list. EssexBrick 👍👍
Well deserved Eddy - hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year!
Lovely ,thanks and a Happy New Year@@modelrailwayquest
Some well chosen layouts, dad dancing and character 'eating'
Personally, I'd be happy with the Toblerone, but I'm sure the lucky recipient will have something beautifully crafted by yourself, and not out of a banana skin 😆
Happy New year 🎉
Thanks Dawn for including mine!
Of course!! Happy New Year to you and yours xxx
Well deserved Bob, not only a great layout, but you put a lot of effort into taking it to so many shows, so the whole world can enjoy it too.
Love that black dress, Dawn! Grumpy is just about the best we've seen in model railway photography techniques, BTW. Ron & Heather JAGRAF/X in Frederick, Colorado. 🚂 🐕 🐈 😅😊
Thank you Ron and Heather - Happy New Year to you both - lots of love xxx

Me ? Well as always its the `Challenge` as to see of its possible or I can do it.
Oh yes, and the Morgan tappets are 98% done. Take care. x
Thank you Alan - Happy New Year to you and thank you for all your support xx
I am a model maker but I'm not a railway modeller. However I was drawn in by Boomer Dioramas scenics. His shelf layout is outstanding!
Nice to see something sci-fi.
Brilliant! First time visit to your channel and before I’ve even got to the end of this vid, just had to say a big hat’s off for your wicked rendition of ‘The Ladykillers’. Classic movie with a stellar cast recreated in appropriate style. Brilliant!
Thank you Sean!
Hi Dawn, All the layouts looked superb. My personal preference was Fenwick TMD. HNY. Colin.
A great layout - we could only show a small snapshot but so much to see on Dan's layout. He's done an exceptional job.
Dawn all of the layouts are winners with each one being unique. Thank you for sharing your choices. A Happy New Year to you and Mr Grumpy and looking forward to your model railway quests in 2025.
Thanks Chris. Happy New Year to you! xx
I am in a total state of shock that my layout has been included in your top 10 layouts of 2024, thank you Dawn and for inspiring me to do something different.
Well deserved - you've blown us all away with your ambition, imagination and absolutely brilliant model making!
@@keithsteadman2748 That is a fantastic model Keith, both entertaining and technically advanced. As I said before it's a show stopper.
hope to see that R&J layout some time in 2025, ontraxs or so... best wishes Dawn !
Merci du partage! Bonne année 2025! Stéph.
Some beautiful work shown here, Some I have seen in person (two feature on my channel), the others I need to look out for in 2025.
I saw Los Tanimos in Swansea in 2024. Very impressive!
It's a brilliant layout.
Thank you!
I have seen Los Tanimals a few times, once called Solent Summit. I think it can be assembled in different configurations.
@@westhavengwr4613 Solent Summit is the Gosport Club's name for our whole modular system. Los Tanimals is wholly mine.
@ Solent Summit is Gosport Clubs whole layout. I belong to Gosport Club, but Los Tanimals and my other layout, Hells Glen,( which won best in Show today at Wessex Group Show, Frome), are totally mine. Cheers, Bob.
What a great NY video. I am humbled that you have Keane’s Cove on your list - thank you. I hope to show the layout during 2025 as it has only been out of the house 3 times! This year I will also be producing OO scale kits to bring a wider range of structures to the market. Best wishes for 2025 🚂
I couldn't not have Keane's Cove on the list Debbie - it is beautiful!
@@modelrailwayquest❤
Two of those i've seen and both are in my top 10 for their scales. I've made note of the other ones in your top 10 to see if they will be appearing at any of the shows i'll be doing this year
Happy New Year - catch you at the next one! x
Thanks
Wow! That is so incredibly generous of you @terrynutlob4073 - what can we say. Thank you! xxx
Tellindaloch also appeared at Swansea 2024.
Thanks once more Dawn for bringing style and glamour to our beloved hobby! As for Beaky Banana Bird, have you (and Grumpy) considered taping it to a board and auctioning it at Southeby's in New York? A previous non-celebrity banana went for millions recently!!!
Was that your song ? Wow, impressive !!! Beautiful voice !
See you at Bognor Regis! Looking forward to seeing The Ladykillers.

Sounds amazing - I feel a road trip coming on! Grumpy... pack your bags... :-)
A great selection of layouts! Have you ever seen our layout at Pendon Museum?
10:22 - "Poor Beaky" 😆
😂😂🤫
Great video but Grumpy needs training to stop biting and it stands to reason that he likes the layout where people are eaten because look what he did too poor Beaky, lol. Great choice, Jersey Bill
Good stuff. Perhaps make 2025 about attending some more finescale (don't like the term but it serves a purpose) shows as there's a whole world and level of model railways you seem unaware of
Thanks - not unaware of, just trying to find time. 😊 Millsbridge is a beautiful and exceptional finescale layout … which is on my list!
@modelrailwayquest yeah millsbridge is quite nice.
Some great layouts being showcased, but the banana thing is a little confusing....
I’m always confused by the banana thing - if you watch The Wednesday Express you’ll know!
Who’s the annoying bloke in the hoodie who kept interrupting and waving a banana around - very odd!
I'm afraid that's Grumpy Camera Man - annoying is his default.
Is there something you can't do ?
Plenty. :-)
Not seen any of those apart from GET's, very southern based, you need to get up t'North
EssexBrick has been invited to Syston, Leicester. Is that up north enough??
Syston Model Railway Society
2024 Exhibition 11th & 12th May
Indeed!! Watch this space. Grumpy is at present looking at train fares to Ely!!
Dawn lives "down south" so that's why. Maybe you can do a video of your top 10, maybe even inspire us 'soft southerners' to venture pass the Watford Gap?
PS we hope to visit up there soon

He's absolutely good to me. He pours my beer for me. And he does a great job of it too 😅😂
Model Trains not interesting..
Dawn Quest herself the UA-cam Vlogging hostess, TV Producer and Journalist off Model RailWay Quest and what's she's wearing Currently very very very very interesting indeed!!!!!!!!!
Well... thank you!
