I've not been an OO modeller for a zillion years [moved to Bachmann On30 so I could see it :-)] but your videos are sooooooo thoroughly professional and painstakingly correct, plus the personal delivery style of all of you is just superb, laid-back, no b*llsh&t, informative, self-effacing, just perfect. You are doing a massively good job for the Hornby brand. It's just a pleasure to watch you. And, of course, you are doing the COVID distancing :-) Such a great example.
Really pleased to hear you enjoyed it, the trains and layouts really speak for themselves. 👍🏻
@@hornbymag I also love the fact that you are more than happy to acknowledge and salute brands other than Hornby when you have used them. I should add that I've been watching from all the way down here in Oz :-)
One of the best model railway videos I’ve watched in ages. Really enjoyed this. Well done guys.
I just love the modelling on the Hornby Magazine layouts. There is so much atmosphere and detail and it shows what can be done when using RTR, RTP and other generally available materials. Fantastic video.
Thanks Paddy!
Well done to all involved. Pleasure to watch, and glad to see these are now becoming a regular UA-cam staple!
Every month to go along side the Magazine
I admire the skill and dedication of those who created this layout. It's beautiful.
Absolutely first rate you guys are amazing.A pleasure to watch
Not long found your channel and I am really enjoying it and getting some real milage out of watching your vids,also loving new junctions channel.keep up the good work chaps
My son and I have learned so much from your magazine and videos. This is his favourite layout so far
Great to hear Neil!
Also love the adverts for the model shops!
Good to hear, more interesting to watch and means no random Google ads mid video. 👍🏻

The only adverts worth seeing!
Hi my name is Phil it's nice to see layouts like this it brings back memories of my time on the footplate I started at edgeley shed on the 4th of April 1961in 1962 I was made a fireman at Trafford Park shed I did 8 yrs on steam I finished my time out at longsight as a driver I finished in 2011 Regards Phil.
Fantastic layout and superb, informative video. I know nothing about the Southern but I’m sure that the Swindon works entrance wasn’t on that region! 😅 I just love seeing so many trains moving at once through the complex junction. Great Modelling!
What a brilliant program ! loved the news update (more interesting that the BBC ) was expecting a young lady to present the weather forecast !!!!! Excellent work by all ..
Thanks Anthony, not long until the next one now! 🤣
I heartily agree. Thanks
Love this layout. I recon I’m going to watch this multiple times. Can’t wait for this edition of the mag to be in my hands. Clint
Thanks Clint! 196 pages await you! 😄
Excellent layout twelve trees love the B&W running and all together excellent update
Thanks Kenny, It adds a certain something
I am building a Ringwood “what if” layout 1955 to 1965, so I have Ringwood staying open and electrified 3rd rail from Lymington Junction to Hamworthy Junction. Double track at the London end, and single track west of Ringwood. So I have all the EMU’s, Brighton Belle, Thumper, several M7’s, Bournemouth Belle and of course a full fleet ( and some duplicates) of all Southern steam locomotives. Just to make it really interesting the line ( closed in 1935) from Ringwood through Hurn to Christchurch is revived.
The big job is adding the 3rd rail, so that will be the big job for 2024/25, and also adding the scenery, which will reflect what Ringwood looked like in that era.
All this is happening in Picton, South Island , New Zealand.
You guys really do some beautiful layouts, looking forward to tomorrow night :)
Can't wait!
Great video, the whole section on Twelve Trees was superb! Really nice to see an in depth explanation of the layout both from the front and the back 👍🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
Extremely good video Hornby Mag one of your best layouts yet
Wonderful video, and the Statfold Barn Railway at 35:11 is absolutely stunning! Wow, wow and WOW!!
That lovely doggy is doing a great supervision job.
Brilliant lads and thanks for bringing the layout to us lot! 😎
I'm really looking forward to seeing this
Me too! :D
Woop
Nice one guys. Really enjoyed the black & white intro, very atmospheric. Not really a Southern fan but Twelve Trees is a cracking layout. You've built some great layouts over the years, my favourites being 'Toppsy' and 'Bolsover'. Keep well and catch you soon, regards Bobby 'T'.
Great video. I dare not say better than going to an exhibition but it certainly provides a good layout fix!
Love the swan neck lamps, I remember them on Walmer station when I were a lad! Superb layout by the way.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it
Great video guys one of your best, loved Twelve Trees Junction.
Thanks Paul, really glad you enjoyed it!
Looking forward to the Southern Region segment, having just started an n gauge southern themed layout, top video as always 👌👌
Thanks Matt, enjoy your new project!
Really enjoyed this, I’ve bought the magazine on the back of this as Exehaven Harbour my layout is based on a Southern and GWR theme and the Southern supplement was very interesting, thanks
I am so delighted to hear Southern Rhopsody again. Very appropriately used. Well done, brilliant. Great to see Southern Region. Mostly overlooked! Odd as it has and continues to carry more passengers than another of the regions. With the benefits of 3rd rail and not obstructive and no more efficient cantenery. Given you are the Hornby Magazine, their (Hornby) HQ is in the former SR, this really should be much more reported.
fantastic video, black and white footage of Twelve Tress is very enigmatic!
Thanks Ben!
My dad worked 47 years on this region from the age of 15. Started in 1937 as tea boy made engine driver 1947. Did 8 years as firemen learning the ropes. Did troop trains and ammunition trains and normal passenger trains all through the war. He had a serious motor cycle accident and was told to rest. But went to work regardless to keep the trains running during 1939 to 1945. Loved Southern passed away 1985.
A new layout? Well that came out of nowhere really looking forward for this
We have loads of layouts in storage :D
Would love a spin off series on how the mobile boards are produced. Topics such as making seamless joints on platforms etc that cross board joints. What parts of the scenery is fixed/removable. Safe storage and transportation of the boards.
A couple of ideas...
- When you build the skewed road bridge at the platform end, if you make the road base removable as one piece (ie spanning both baseboards), but leave the bridge sides (and footpath) ABOVE the roadbase permanently attached, but each side ONLY mounted on one baseboard. There is therefore no "gap" on the road as it crosses the baseboard join, and it also hides the vertical join in the bridge supports.
- Mount red/green LEDs above the junction (and points) in the fiddle yard - ie signals! Mounting them directly above the track removes any confusion as to which track they refer to, and makes them visible even if all tracks have trains on them.
Particularly like the fact UA-cam subtitles frequently refer to "Horny Magazine" whenever I watch one...😆
Very well done!!
Thanks!
WOW SO NICE!!!! I have some Hornby models at my home, but I don’t live in UK though. I only have some Thomas models, The Flying Scotsman and including the random rolling stock from different brands.
Keep hold of those, could he valuable now Hornby have stopped making them
Hornby Magazine I know but I saw it on the Hornby Website in 2018 when the Thomas range closing down.
Great job
Really enjoyed the video and I'm looking forward to being able to 12 trees at an exhibition in the future
Yes all being well wint be too long!
Suggestion for the empty corner; Tube station? Surface running and then add then Tube stock that is appearing?
Fantastic. Must be good when you can let people watch from either side.
Great video, really good to see and gain some ideas from a new comer to the hobby. My suggestion would be to put in a little canal scene to break up the town moving into the country. Maybe use Magnorail for cyclists going up and down the canal path?
Wow!! Fantastic layout! I love the B&W scenes...sooooooo nostalgic, I almost felt like I'd stepped back in time and was really there!
I just watched to catch you working around your beautiful dog.
This looks awesome
Its was quite epic lol
Brilliant video as ever guys. Really nice to see twelve trees. Hoping to be able to make it to one of your shows to see twelve trees in full swing next year if safe to do so. I'm not sure whether it'll fit in the corner you mentioned about doing in the future Mike, but what about a small orchard in there. Nice to see Smith's model railways feature to, one of two local model shops I use
Keep up the good work guys and stay safe
James
Thanks James, top suggestion that! Also when we finally get to another show you'll have to come and have a go!
@@hornbymag that would be brilliant thankyou, you'll have to have extra relief lines if you have me at the controls 😂
Love this!!!!
Great episode guys!
Thanks!
I enjoyed the video thanks, and I liked the way you have continued to develop the layout. I am a bit concerned that you have a flasher on the platform though. Oh sorry, camera flasher.
That layout looks fantastic.
Thanks Reny
Great video !
11 of the trees blew down in the Great Storm of 1987, and now it's just Tree.
A lovely layout.
Thanks!
School, playground, sports field complete with sound for the front corner to add more real life ambience .
The Southern Region is fascinating indeed! 3rd Rail Electrics, a great livery, and spam cans, what could be finer? The junction area is really beautiful and the 3 staging yard offer so much interplay. For me, this is an Ideal Home layout!
Glad you enjoyed it William
@@hornbymag Hello From Canada. Stay Safe!
@@WilliamHBaird-eq2hp Hello Canada! 🇨🇦
Enjoyable video, impressive and interesting layout and hope the wind didn’t affect the gazebo too much! Lovely dog as well! One suggestion for the corner on the new board .... as it’s set in the 60’s, how about a new-build concrete carbuncle building under construction .... such as the infamous 50p building near East Croydon station?
Very good suggestion!
There is a building that I find would be the perfect one there, as it is definitely giving the sense of a London area southern region layout : a coal operated power plant (you'll have directly guessed I made reference to the Battersea Powerplant). To have a power plant like that and a 4-track bridge on a river just after the station would be nice I think and give a bit of a "Battersea" look that would immediately spell "LONDON" to anybody as this area and building are well known in the UK as well as abroad (perfect example being I'm no British, in fact I was born and raised in Belgium (and still live there even if I often feel also a bit British (to the point I am more used reading and writing in English than in french nowadays).
Fab video and tour of the fiddle yard. How about part of a school and playground in the front corner?
Love the soudtrack too
Glad to hear it
Having watched this amazing video I am amazed at the workmanship. Will You consider displaying this layout at a future event.
Yes it'll be at a show next year, keep an eye out for details 😄
Just wish there was a few more EMUs out there! Ideally a CIG to go alongside the CEPs, VEPs & EPBs.
worked for the railway up in kilmarnock and over on the ayr lines, brings back great memories and superb attention to detail
Thanks!
Another great video. Just wondering what the building by the junction was
loved this vid - good job
Great video of a superb layout guys. I was interested in the “ control of trains section “ and bearing in mind the quite complex & should I say “ keeps you on ya toes “ fiddle yards i’ve watched the latest Perth south model railway layout where the system he used allowed for over 12 trains to be kept running & I know people might feel I takes the “ playing with trains “ away from layout but have you guys considered something like that?
great layout one which I Would love to see in real life. Interesting way of changing the points,. Out of interest what point motor decoders are you using and does it get expensive to do a large number of points like you have there.
Hello magnificent layout but for a suggestion for the little corner you could put a small quarry there and maybe you could get a 009 little circular track
We're putting a quarry on our main 'OO' gauge layout Topley dale. (see the last Layout update)
great video ..great mag this month...so looking forward to next issue ..100....brilliant...not a complaint but can you ever feature railways..model shops in the north east ...great update well done all involved :-)
All depends if they want to get involved, if you've got a local shop you'd think might be interested ask them to get in touch. 👍🏻
Great video
Thanks Roger!
For that currently empty corner board. How about a 1950s/1960s housing tower block/ estate under construction?
great video, pity no one has thought of making a ready to run 2001 electric loco of 1942. which ran on the southern railway , known as booster locos,there was 3 of them, 2003 was a slightly different shape.
You never know Peter
Is it possible to get the track plan for this layout? It's awesome.
Hi I enjoyed this video and pushed the subscribe button.
At minute 27 within this video you request suggestions for something to put in that corner at one end of the storage yard.
My suggestion would be to put in a Y connection. [Two turn-outs from the outer track merging into a short spur for turning engines around].
😃
Thanks Daniel, pleased you enjoyed it and thanks for the suggestion!
The Southern Electric EMUs are my thing too so this layout ticks the boxes for me.
Super...!
Love the southern supplement in the latest Hornby magazine. Are there plans for further supplements for the other 3 major regions.
Firstly, amazing layout! Secondly, how do you keep power running throughout the layout with separating boards? Thanks, Harry
Fantastic video really enjoyed it. If you could include some n gauge that would be really good. I don’t think there was anything in n in this video. Cheers Geoff
Twelve Tree Junction is a stunning layout, but for a 1960s scene there are surprisingly few "dead" steam locos. Maybe an idea for the far left corner?
Good idea!
For a layout called twelve trees.. it does seem to lack... at least 12 trees. maybe a forest in the new scenic section.. or at least a Pub called the Twelve Trees. Other than that, for your comment about the many busses, you could use the scenic corner as a bus depot
Superb.
Thanks Martin
The anticipation is killing me
not long now!
Finally a decent use for the bakeoff tent
Ha! That's got to be the best comment! 😄
Great video really enjoyed would be also great if you covered N gauge news and releases as well.
We're working on that! 😄
It always amazes me that the model works perfectly but the actual APT-P failed.
Such a shame that the project was scrapped. It was a revolutionary idea.
I am glad that at least one survives at Crewe.
The figure with the camera, could you possibly share the schematic circuit to make the flash possible? I am attempting the same setup but hit a wall. Many thanks
The shots in Black and White looks realistic.
Where is this located as it looks like you are on a first floor somewhere, heck of a construction. I have 2x similar storage yards, one controlled by Ecos 50210 track plan and the other earlier build, a control panel. As you mention, the tricky part was a quick visual check on how the roads are set so I have just invested in a multipack of the DCC Concepts LED ground signals.
Hi, when are Hornby going to move manufacturing back to the UK?
That's a question for Hornby Hobbies directly 👍🏻
@@hornbymag I used to make plastic injection mould tools for Hornby and Airfix many years ago. It would be nice to make one more before I hang my boots up.
exhibition set up is so much easier with laser alignment
The acting for the photo shoot was going great until the back door wouldn’t shut lol
That was hilarious
A bit late to the party, sorry! That intro music, was it the Southern Television theme? It stirred a distant memory !
Marvellous
Thanks Sid
Great video!
What’s the name of the music from 0:27 to 3:21?
How do you get the sound of the trains please.. I am just starting to build a Layout thankyou....
I would like to se a GWR based layout, pre consolidation. Any recommendations?
Leave it with us! 😅
Can anybody tell me the Class of DMU that featured in "Cockleshell Heroes" when the Marines had to find their way back to Portsmouth within 48 hours and The Major pretended to be a Conductor to get a ticket for free passage ? The Green DMU below the bridge please ?
Subscribed because of the enthusiasm and the dog. Who owns that pup? Great layout.
That's the Editors dog Luna 🐶
where was this cuz i might be able to go there
