Thank you, as always, for sharing...
Lovely exhibition as always - wish that I could have been there
Really is well worth a visit. Picked up a number of new ideas to incorporate into my own projects, plus a number of hard to find books at a great price
The British have an incredible knack for detail!
Truly some superb Modeller out there
great film dear Callum
as always a big like
cheers
alberto 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Many thanks Alberto
A great bit of videography!! Great layouts, fabulous trains, gorgeous scenery. The things that make a model railway exhibition!! And this one has it all!!
Many thanks and glad you enjoyed the coverage. Really was a great lineup of modelling on display
People who make models like this deserve to be in the Guinness world recedes
Good photography with some excellent layouts. The standard of modelling was very high. The detail on some of the layouts was stunning. Thank you Callum.
Cheers! Glad you enjoyed it
Definitely no Ghost trains on Bridgewater layout, absolutely excellent
Is certainly a stunning layout, always spot something different each time I see it
Fun times!
Excellent videography as usual. A very enjoyable watch. When you linger over anything S&DJR you sort of give yourself away. 😊😊. Nothing wrong with that. cheers, Rob
Many thanks Rob. Glad you enjoyed the coverage. Oh yes, could go amiss that ;)
You filmed this very well callum. I have to say though that seeing ghostly driverless locos on otherwise finely detailed layouts is a bit odd lol
Brilliant filming as ever. You even managed to capture moving locos. On Sunday there was much chatting but little running. Having said that the standard of construction was high but not aimed at the average modeller.
Cheers John
i would love to go to one of these exhibitions, they seem so much fun! I did plan to go to one but it got cancelled last minute so i went to swindon locomotive museum which i enjoyed and would recommend to everyone
Always next year. Is a great show to visit, plus you get to take in the city too
Have you changed your camera Callum? The filming was absolutely first class and the clarity excellent. A very enjoyable show, but I fail to understand the moans about gauges. To me this was a brilliant MODEL railway show displaying excellent skills, and the variety of gauges only enhanced what was on display. Thanks for sharing. Cheers, Bob
Cheers Bob. Same old, same old camera I'm afraid. Yes, RailWells is very much a different show to others. I certainly picked up a few new ideas from the event, plus some hard to find items too
That green vehicle at 5:19 on the rails 🛤️
What's the name of that?
Cause that's no snob nosed lorry
Hello Callum - @ 01:56 I've just noticed that there is a little sign with your Channel Name on it!!! 😉🚂🚂🚂
Oh yes
I attended this show on Saturday morning and yet again was underwhelmed. The advertising is clearly for a Model Railway Exhibition, however, it is very obviously aimed specifically at the Scalefour/P4/EM and other specialised gauges. If that is the intent then the organisers need to be explicit about this, as I witnessed a large number of attendees, many with children, who were obviously disappointed in what they saw and left promptly. Exhibitions need to appeal to a wide range of people and most importantly the modellers of the future. Having 16 layouts on show, with little or no movement to entertain the public is not doing the hobby any favours and I suggest to the organisers that they reflect on their advertising strategies.
That's sadly just how a lot of people make their layouts, they care so much about the scenery (which is a good thing) that they forget it's a model train layout and not a diorama.
@@IndianaNorthWestern,
I have been complaining a lot about exhibition layouts lately with crew less locos running. It looks like to me that other people have now adopted the term Ghost Trains ! To me it proves a point that it should not happen on a Video.
Hi Ron, thanks for the feed back. I've been having a think lately about doing show videos, and I've decided I'll be winding things down regarding these sort of videos, as it's all been getting a bit to much of late with work and other things.
All the best 👍
So Chard junction is carrying on that old favourite of GHOST TRAINS, having the ability to move about with absolutely no train crews at all, built by cheapskates again, all that saving of crews wages.
Cheers! Glad you enjoyed the video
First !
