    I lived in Harrogate 1961-65 while with the US Army and spent a lot of hours photographing and making movies of York railways. You have captured the station in all its glory. Excellent modeling and craftsmanship!

    Absolutely stunning, a track level hard to tell it's a model.

    Echoing Byford's words - stunning rendition of a place I know well.

    Magnificent! I was only there once on a visit to Yorkshire and was suitably impressed. Your model looks great. Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦.

    This is a fantastic model layout of York Station Giles, this brings back many happy memories of York Station as it used to be from my trainspotting childhood days with my late Father 👏

    Nice to see it finally running, I have watched the construction of this layout on RMweb for some time now and have been very impressed with layout and especially the quality of the buildings on it, they are just superb. Now we can also see that this attention to detail has also been applied to the trackwork and weathering of stock. Regards, Richard

    I remember York in 1960's not the 50's, lovely to see it in model form, splendid 😊

    My word what a work of art, the station and buildings are absolutely stunning. The station roof alone is a fantastic piece of modelling. Well done to all involved.

    I read the title of the video and thought it was talking about the model railway that is at york station. Anyway am amazed it looks just like the real thing.

    What a great model. I felt like I could just walk over the footbridge to get to my platform, it’s so realistic!

    I have fond memories of York station in the late 50s and have a vivid memory of being shown a diesel engine (I still remember the strange smell).
    I hope you film this again with green screen and render some background views; it would make a great candidate. Well done on your great craftsmanship.

    What a fantastic achievement Giles. I know York very well, but more 60’s onward and you have captured the prototype exceptionally well

    One looked like the Brighton Belle, but did that go through York? I lived in Croydon as a child and could see the London to Brighton line from my bedroom window. The BB used to pass going south daily at about 2.20pm and it was nearly always well on time.

    • @melholley5212
      @melholley5212 Рік тому +1

      The Pullman carriages are very similar to those used on the Brighton Belle; Pullman trains like this were steam hauled across a number of routes in the 1950s and early 1960s, before they were replaced by a new design of Pullman coach

    Peter Smith of Kirtley Models is the Super Quick king as all his models rely on paper coverings rather than having any relief. Look nice at a distance but not close up.

    Good effort! I think the station could do with some passengers, signage and fittings. It looks a bit surreal and bare as it is! Here's my video on an easy way to do it. ua-cam.com/video/24xGycfvgk0/v-deo.html
    Thanks for uploading.
