Excellent alot better than silent running, Thankyou for your tips on NCE controller I'm building a TMD layout no rolling stock, But the sound of multiple diesels on shed is rather nice.
Thanks! I think sound makes such a difference. I'm just getting to grips with it all though, especially co-ordinating things like buffers clanging and coal shovelling.
@@MessingaboutwithModels Your welcome and Thank you very much for replying to my comment. I would love if you could take a quick look at my page and any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I have a new video out now. Hope you like and share.
Very well built 👍 really enjoyed the shunting and running, I like the little engine shed and bay platform. The uncoupling ramps are a great too, will catch up with the series, I’ve rediscovered 2 great channels today👍👍👍 👋 Darren
Thanks for a great running session - so much potential with just a loop and couple of sidings ! Like how the headshunt also doubles up as going to the loco shed. Look forward to seeing more running sessions on your layouts
Like your layout, beautiful modeling. I have always been a fan of what we call "shelf switching" layouts here in the United States. But I have to wonder if I would want to be a passenger in a coach coupled behind a van full of fish.
Thanks Michael! Thats a good question about the fish van, I'm not sure I would either. They layout is loosely based on the Killin branch in Scotland, and typical trains were a single coach and a fish van! Might explain the lack of passengers which resulted in closure!
@@MessingaboutwithModels To this day, passenger trains in North America have "head end" traffic. In the past, it was postal service and dairy products. Today, it is more likely to be parcels or the vehicles of passengers. I always wonder about the "drovers" who spent their time in the caboose at the end of a cattle train. By law, these trains stopped on a set schedule to feed and water the livestock, requiring the complete unloading and reloading of the train. These feed yards were massive. But cattlemen are use to the smell. It is the smell of money, they will tell you.
Hi Keith, thanks! The scenic section is on a board designed to fit in a Really Useful Box, so is 1100mm long by 225mm wide. I've added a fiddle yard with 3 sidings to allow me to change the stock off scene.
@@MessingaboutwithModels Ok thanks. Really good micro layout - I only ask as I am going to try a box file layout over the winter - and your plan looks good.
Was watching this just a couple of days ago, then discover today we're in conversation on RMweb!! Small world (no pun intended)!!! Jordan a.k.a. Cavhutch on here & F-UnitMad over there!!

Watched that with a nice cup of tea and a biscuit. Very enjoyable session, love the layout.
Thanks Philip Thompson for the feedback, much appreciated!
Great running session with all the sounds too 🙂👍🏻

Petit mais crédible, bien vivant !
Very interesting shunting session 👏👌👍🤩🙋♂️🇧🇪
Thanks
Nice layout you got there. so much going on.
Thanks Medway Railway Modeller for the feedback, much appreciated!

Great layout! You've fitted so much into such a small area.
Thanks Jake Richards for the feedback, much appreciated!
Really nice compact layout. Well selected “Scottish” locos throughout. Thank you.
Thanks!
Very Neat and keeps your interest
Thanks Robert!
This is a nice running session.

Thank you so much!
Lock doon very funny. 👍👍👍✌️
Yeah! It took my wife a while to get it!
It would be great to see another running session at Loch Doune or Up Ottery ! 🚂🙏
Noted! There's been quite a bit more done to Loch Doune.

Pretty much ended in the UK. Freight and parcels are all in block trains now.
If it’s that bad, you could run the Insulfish van as tail traffic.
Yes, that happened quite a bit, and the van is XP rated.
lots of shunting on a small layout
Thanks Jock Pilchard for the feedback, much appreciated!
Nice layout. Out of interest what is the overall size?
Hi Keith, thanks! The scenic section is on a board designed to fit in a Really Useful Box, so is 1100mm long by 225mm wide. I've added a fiddle yard with 3 sidings to allow me to change the stock off scene.
@@MessingaboutwithModels Ok thanks. Really good micro layout - I only ask as I am going to try a box file layout over the winter - and your plan looks good.
If the passenger train is the last train to arrive at night and the first to leave in the morning why wouldn't the coach just be left at the platform?

Jordan a.k.a. Cavhutch on here & F-UnitMad over there!!
Yep, must really do an updated video, theres been lots more added since this one.
Very inspiring, were did you get the backscene please...
The Backscene was from ID Backscenes photo range - its actually of a welsh mountain!
that turnout needs attention........................ that's three vehicles came off in less than a quarter hour ;-)
Well spotted! To be honest, it never gave me any trouble when I was operating at the Cupar exhibition last summer.
Very enter layout,
Is the Collette coach the Hornby version?😊
Its actually a Stanier (ex-LMS) non-corridor coach, and yes it is from Hornby.
