    Good choice, I love the 24/25 classes too. Not sure they would be my most favourite but they're definitely up there.

    Great to see you enjoying your visit to NYMR, especially that they gave you access to the shed. Shame the 25 wasn't operational, I was at the Llangollen diesel gala a few weeks ago and the visiting Class 25 sounded absolutely brilliant... as did the 47, 31 and 26 of course! Enjoy GETS, quite sad I won't be able to make it.

    Hi Julian, Great to see you enjoying the preservation railways in the UK!. My favourite diesel is the Class 37 so great to see one in this vlog, although like you, I have early memories of my local diesels which were Class 33s and thumpers as dmus of course. I love the 9F but my favourite steam locos are the GWR prairies, although I only have four (so far). Cheers! 🙏

    Hi Julian,
    It was a pleasure to meet you at GETS on Saturday I would have liked to have a longer chat with you as have been to Australia & New Zealand but you I am sure had a lot of others wanting your attension so I hope you liked your visit to the NYMR and GETS which I must say was a bit manic this year over the other ones I have been to. It is super when a modeller can see his fravorite engines up close so pleased you have. Keep safe and well and do not work to hard on Sandling Junction enjoy your visit here.
    Cheers Robert.

      Thanks Robert and it was a pleasure meeting you also. It certainly was manic and quite overwhelming (in a good way), wonderful to meet so many lovely people in one place.

    I had the same Hornby 25 as my first diesel loco in the eighties! Now I have two of them in the BR blue but they’re slightly different shades of blue. Possible sun damage on one…

    Hi Julian, great to meet you and Paul at a very busy GETS. I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip to the UK and a safe return. Best Regards Steve

      Thanks Steve and a pleasure to meet you also. I understand it may have been the busiest GETS so far. Maybe they might need a bigger venue next year (with parking)🙂

    Hi Julian, with so many Class 25s and 9Fs I am wondering why you don’t feature these on your videos and intro to Station Road? I have a Sutton Locomotive Works 25 on order and you probably just missed the event they held in Crewe recently, where they had plenty on display and running. Hope to see you at GETS later. Delighted you had a great time and good weather in God Own County!

    • @StationRoadModelRailway
      @StationRoadModelRailway  7 місяців тому +1

      I must admit I've not done a great deal of running sessions or updated my intro (for years), but you're right, these locos need to feature on the channel more.

    Dear Sir,
    I am sure you are enjoying your British promenade.
    Methinks you and i share a wee love for diesel English locomotives. I have no models of these, though. I Would love to have a Class 8, they are so cute!
    Yesterday i saw "BBC Time Shift - The Nation's Railway: The Golden Age of British Rail" (2015). I think you would like it.
    Cheers from Brazil!

    Hi Julian, i met up with you and Graham at GETS 14/10/2023, i would like to apologize if i came across as rude to you, i am pleased that Graham helped me with the words that the questions i was asking you about Neil

    • @StationRoadModelRailway
      @StationRoadModelRailway  7 місяців тому

      No apology is needed, I don't recall anyone being rude at GETS. Maybe just the impatient security guards trying to hustle us out on closing each day.

    Good to see you have made use of the good weather the UK has been having recently. Has the trip given you any inspiration for Station Road? Was looking at the tracks behind you at the engine shed and remembering the work you put in on your goods yard ballast - might we see a video in the coming months on really oil and cinder coveted tracks at Station Road? Enjoy the rest of your adventure 👍

    • @StationRoadModelRailway
      @StationRoadModelRailway  7 місяців тому +1

      Thanks James, I certainly gathered a tone of inspiration from NYMR, but then inspiration came from all angles throughout the entire UK trip.

    Up to Milton Keynes? Your in the North, so MK is in in South, which is down! I Know, its all upside down from your view! lol

    • @StationRoadModelRailway
      @StationRoadModelRailway  7 місяців тому +1

      Yep, up was down and down was up. The southerly wind was warm and the northerly cold. At least the cars drove on the same side of the road🙂🙃
