    I'm a Yank in the US and I enjoy watching Aussie model trains- very distinctive with a little British and US influence it seems but a history of its own.

    14:11 I did NOT know my friend was running this as a full business, I just congratulated him upon finding out through this video, and I'm stunned to see more of both what you and my friend has to show off more. Love the video dude, keep it up!

    That was a really great episode of Australian model railway news and I absolutely loved it (I love all of the episodes,but this one was better than normal), i love the new AN beanie and would love to buy it but I have no money as I am only young but I am currently wearing your SRA beanie and your VR scarf. Great video and Will keep up the fabulous work! 😁, I would love to have a 82 so I have entered in to the 82 class competition so wish me luck!, if I win I will be letting people at the model railway club use it if there locomotive breaks down. -Connor

    Can Platform Printing Australia do a 3D print of a 50 something year old grumpy man who's been shafted by Google. I'm still nagging the O scale modeler making friends to do a Red Rattler and my pledge is if they do it I will get into O scale. See you in over a year at the next Great Train Show. My video of this years show is still not made, had lightning hit our house and that's caused havoc. I just seem to be caught up in a series of massive failures. Lucky you have a website, so tricky to navigate giveaways on UA-cam now.

    Will, your Australian model railway videos are outstanding! I trust your contribution will be honoured by the Australian model railway industry/suppliers in the very near future. Loved to the R Class up and back trip to Ballarat. The still shots I thought were amazing. My best wishes.

    Very nice mate, the OTM 82's are certainly a great model, have got 4 of those beauties myself. And another 2 to come sometime. Looking forward to getting some RRAY/RRBY wagons soon as well. And i am certainly looking forward to the Auscision N class rerun due sometime early next year. Gonna be heaps of stuff coming by the end of the year as well.

    Thanks for another very interesting and informative video presentation Will.
    Looking at all the high quality models available and becoming available.
    The modellers of Australian model railways are very well catered for.
    I remember what it was like in the 70's and 80's.
    My appreciation to all those manufacturers of Australian model railways.
    We are a blessed mob indeed.

    I think I saw somewhere that Auscision has scheduled a release date in mid November for the CLF/CLP’s. I’ve definitely arrived at the conclusion that one would be a solid first pick for my first Auscision model. It wouldn’t be my first HO scale to represent an Australian railway but it would be my first one from an authentic Australian brand. The one I have currently is from the American brand Broadway Limited Imports, it’s BHP Iron Ore’s number 6070 “Port Hedland”.

    The 82 class, don’t often do much coal anymore, they do some, but not many. They are very common on the manildra grain trains with the 81 class, but with this service lost to SSR, it will be interesting to see where the displaced units move to, they are also running a weekly service from Sydney to Adelaide hauling grain from regional locations, good video once again will.

      @@WillJamesRailways Such a shame! Last I heard from them (was over a month ago now so I could be wrong) is the AD60 was supposed to be shipped to them in september and the D59's tooling wasn't finished but I think they said production by Feb if all goes to plan. Was really hoping for a update in this months news but hard to report when there is limited communication from them. I'm eager to get my hands on these models! just so restless with no timeline
