    No need for chapters for me my friend. Tried to write a comment early doors this morning but had to delete as it made absolutely no sense, and that is without a dram…
    Liking your thoughts about the extended dog bone rather than the standard tail chaser loops. Defo keep the bridge traversing over the main lines, it will look really good for future shots. The raised section for your station will work, 40 cm won’t look too dramatic for a retaining wall or embankment.
    Still in limbo with our house move, the chain has about 20 buyers so it’s going to take ages to go through.
    New house has a basement room which I think is approx 10x3m, hence I’m keeping a very close eye on your progress. Great video mate- loving your style!

    • @doubleodave
      @doubleodave  3 дні тому +1

      I completely forgot to say on the video that the reason for the change was due to new dimensions looking back to do 10x3 rather than the 4.5 width - which in fairness makes the build somewhat easier due to roof span 👍 it would be so much easier to just have a basement that sounds perfect mate. I much prefer the dig one idea rather than the basic loop should be good.

    Hi Dave. Another excellent video.
    I snapped up one of those Kernow 47s (Greyfriers Bobby), although I was very tempted by Billingham Enterprise, too.
    Don't reveal yourself, Dave. You're the Kendo Nagasaki (are you too young to get that cultural reference? Wish I was!) of the model railway world.

    Well thanks again OODave, that was a cracking start to my week. Plans for LJ2 coming along nicely. The introduction of phase 3 with the station looks interesting, but does it not mean that the entire side of four (actually 2) lines will be completely hidden? It seems like an awful lot of track to hide, unless I am missing something.
    Back to LJ1 and your locos, both weathered and unweathered, look fabulous. I could sit and watch them all day. In fact, some days I do.
    As for a Christmas Special featuring an actual appearance, I can’t make my mind up. You are virtually the only model rail You tuber who does not show his face and there is something cool about the mystery. Still no sign of your missus, either in a voice over or in picture. I guess we can’t have everything. 😊
    Cheers, enjoy the new TV.

      The shelf will sit above the scenic section about 18” above and I’d put lights under it to light the below.

    Holy fecal matter Batman! The layout plan went off the rails comparing it to the last thing I seen. Well, I'll wait for the final iteration, lol. Sorry to hear about the boxing Kangaroo because we have a similar problem with a wrestling bear so good luck with that. The blue things are containers for shipping pool tables with the legs removed, lol. Knowing how you are you would show your face with a Santa beard and costume on so go on do it. Hylton said you look like Russel Raven I mean Crow. The TMC has ring problems because it is blowing allot of diesel out the stack. What size is the TV? Nice Video, Jersey Bill

    Your plan for your new layout is looking alright, don't forget if your going to want roads and moving vehicles on them to put that in your plans before you start.
    I went and got that machine, if you want any brick walling/retaining walls that's all still way off, work in progress, it's going to take a few weeks even to get the machine going as a couple of clips shook loose in transit and two ceramic elements dropped down and ripped the wires out. If you want anything making quick you could send me something that you get from someplace else and some plastic sheets in the material and thickness you want it in and I could duplicate the one you send me from a cast mould of it, other than that I'm looking on get an 18,5kw inverter and possibly an old Hass mini mill to do some different brick and retaining walls moulds but I'll be on a learning curve with all that and I need to sell a few things first but I'll be trying to nock something up with my mates 3D printer possibly in the meantime.

    Proper good episode that DOD…. I do like the silliness, but it’s nice to see what you’ve got planned for LJ2.
    Should be epic, but blimey you’re gonna need some serious amount of track!
    I’m liking the new 47 you got quite a few now, I haven’t even got one…. can’t quite believe that, seeing as no layout should be without at least one 47.
    There’s a dilemma brewing here at Colwich…. Dr Beeching is about to come back from the dead & cut back & close the layout😢 we’re going to move house & i’m not sure where we will end up???
    My ideas are, focus on a small O gauge shunting layout or go for a OO TMD either way a new “watch trains go by” layout seems a long way off at the moment.
    What do you reckon?
