Hi Ben - yet more fantastic scratch building - looks fantastic. Great seeing all those trains running on the layout. Must be a bit disappointing re the sleepers 😢. Cheers Euan
Thanks Euan as usual, yeh the 92 is just not upto it, its pretty out of date compared to the 59, the 59 could probably pull 12. Its good the stock is getting better.
That view of the station at 12.56 just captures perfectly the atmosphere and visual presence of Stafford station that you get when walking over Newport Road bridge. You really have done a sterling job 👍🏻 A real credit to your modelling skills and quest for authenticity
Thanks, yeh getting a feeling of a place is important to me as well when modelling it, I stuggled a bit with getting the current build to fit in with the vibe I got from the prototype actually, its a bit like a painting sometimes.
Great modelling and a fantastic looking layout, I wish the trains were that frequent when I was a teenage spotter at Stafford in the early 80’s. I think the brickwork must have been cleaned up when they modernised the warehouse, I seem to remember it being quite a dull brown colour back in the day.
I really enjoyed watching you model that warehouse Ben in real detail and done to perfection. You are creating a wonderful layout and looking forward to the next release. Brilliant😀👍
Just love it when you put another building together, you make it look so easy Ben and the building looks awesome. The best thing is that its N gauge, so it gives me a lot of inspiration.
@@staffordstationngauge8359 My rake was very draggy and so Revolution gave me replacement bogies - they made a modest difference, the 92 really struggles to haul them and I found the PCB getting seriously hot, I double head the train now and my 92 is pretty much a static display. I fear that Revolution sacrificed runability for detail.
Great job on the building!

Cheers, yes they seem to have refaced it in areas especially the front.

Fantastic modelling skills. 👍
I'm assuming the coaches are too draggy?
Thanks. The coaches are not too bad, just a shame the 92 cant pull them.
