    A really nice scratch built railway station. I especially love the drop off point within the station arch way area.

    What a stunning build! It just looks so right and I don't think I've seen a scratchbuit station to match it -definitely exhibition quality. With the station completed, you must be nearing the end of the layout construction. Looking forward to next week and thank you for posting. Stay well.

    • @Chandwell
      @Chandwell  3 роки тому

      Thank you Paul. I am really pleased with how it has turned out. I agree that it works for the feel of Chandwell. The layout is far, far, from complete. There is still a lot to do. I have a whole street of shops, a high street, the industrial buildings along the canal, the back scene behind the station, the far corner, and the houses above the tunnels yet to do. I think there is at least 6 more years of work ahead of me! Michael.

    I had model railways when "I was a lad" as they say. Since then my hobbies have included sailing (mainly in the Irish Sea), large scale radio controlled aircraft, playing in several R&B groups and renovating a 19thC French farmhouse. Now happily retired I was looking for a new hobby - and was I inspired when I chanced across this video. Absolutely stunning, with attention to detail which brought back memories of building aircraft for scale competitions. So a rejuvenated hobby combined with a wonderful childhood memory. Many thanks for this and I will start watching from episode 1 for ideas and methods to build my first N Gauge train set. Brilliant. Stay safe, kind regards

    We've watched quite a few channels as we get back into modeling. Each person puts their soul into it as their skill and patience allows, and it's unfair to criticise the less able.
    But this - this is like Canaletto has become a modeller. It is impressive, exquisite and surprising.
    Your work is quite shockingly good.

    Hi Michael, another masterpiece production. You have got to be claiming a well deserved first place for us N gauge modellers. Lots of you’re work is above and beyond the expected level of detail. Amazing work again, love it, very well done from me... All the best, Chris

    Wow! Absolutely bloody marvellous! I can’t get over how much patience you must have to painstakingly add all of the detail especially on the back wall that can hardly be seen. Your skills are legendary and should you ever decide to sell Chandwell (lol)............well done Michael

      Hi Phil. Thank you so much for your kind words. If I were to sell Chandwell it would be very, very expensive. It is firmly attached to a four-bedroom semi-detached house so I’d have to chuck that in with the sale. 😀

    Another brilliant video Michael. I love how that station is coming together - and its the attention to the details on front, backs, sides that set this out as a stunner. My biggest regret is this layout is not going to be on the exhibition circuit - as it can stand with the best of them! Looking forward to the next part.

      Thank you very much indeed John! Sadly with the layout fixed to the house, this is not one that will make it to exhibitions.

      @@Chandwell deservedly so. I‘m not just a model railway enthusiast (albeit gauge 1 live steam) but am also an architect, which is why I can appreciate not just the amount of work you put into your hobby and can understand how you view the world you want to create. The end result is truly stunning. Take care, Philip.

      @@flippop101 It means a lot if an architect is watching and not hiding his face behind his hands! I know nothing of true architectural practices, and just follow a kind of "model what you see" process. Building Chandwell has really opened my eyes to the architecture around me that I'd never really appreciated before. In fact, making Chandwell has made every walk through any town or city far more interesting. I find myself spotting things I'd like to make, or wondering how and why things are the way they are. It is fascinating.

I saw your other comment about the penny on my Pub video but it is not there any longer. Not sure if you deleted it? But anyway, tonight’s video includes a 20p piece to show the size of the station.

    As I'm getting close to retirement I have started to prepare for all those extra hours each day. Your videos have been a real inspiration for me and I have started to hoard materials and tools. I like your low cost approach to materials but I understand that good tools are essential. It caused ne some concern when I noticed some of the weights you are using. Maybe you could advice me on how I can get Lagavulin at a good discount somewhere?

      Alas, you have to “spend out” on decent weights. Can’t have too many of them! 😂
