Mick, I think that your model railway is outstanding in many ways. Looking at this running session, I am struck by just how excellent the track is, the multi coloured ballast, the different shades of green in the vegetation and trees, the positioning of the greenery alongside the track. And the brick viaduct you have built at 19 minutes 15 seconds into the video is superb with its uneven wall toppings and lovely curve. The excellent lineside equipment and detailing. What a pleasure it must be to see this every day. Thanks for sharing it with us all. Charles.
I like the right-of-way detail. Great job making the ballast look prototype with the varying shades of stone and where vegetation grows between the tracks. Takes a great deal of time and effort to do that.
Got to agree with a lot of comments on here,,what a great layout,, and I love the different perspective,,, it did feel realistic,,, a dream I never fulfiied,, but love watching how others have made it possible for the likes of me to enjoy,, thanks Mike 👍
Thank you Michael glad you liked the layout and your comment makes it all worth while. Enjoy many more of the video's. New one coming soon. Happy new year. Mick
What a fabulous set this is. The attention to detail and the overall structure is amazing. Just imagine having this as a 10 year old boy. You would never need computer games you would be in your own world. Absolutely stunning how it has all been thought through.
Quite impressive. Rails, ballast, grass, fences, small walls, point boxes and all the stuff along the way are... real. Just watch the video from about 3:50 focusing on the tracks, and when he'll appear on the right side less than a minute after, your first impression will be "what the... that's a GIANT there?" before remembering that you're looking at a model railway.
Amazing Mick, I especially like the extra realistic detail like the 4 aspect signalling, S&T ducts & cabinets, cables, point motors and the sections of rail and other lying around.
I am not a railway enthusiast but to see such an amazing working work of art and years of dedication I can only applaud your efforts and fine result! Long may you continue to add to your stunning Lakeside Railway!
@@michaelsmith-hn1cn Credit where credit is due! Thank you for your reply and letting me explore your railway. I hope you have some of those chocolate dispensing machines at your station that I used to enjoy, as I will be jumping on board again soon!
@@michaelsmith-hn1cn I will look out for them. The detail is amazing, even down the vegetation between the tracks! You are doing a truly tremendous job. Thank you for sharing it all!
To say I am overwhelmed by this would be an understatement. The pure logistics of a build of this size and complexity totally defeats me. The detail. The scenics. The rolling stock. The character. Outstanding. Where on earth do you begin? I assume you never end. I have a little N guage layout on a board in my garage that I built 20 plus years ago. Despite some issues with my simple wiring it does still run and that in itself is a simple pleasure and that is perhaps what it is all about. I cannot imagine how you would ever break down a layout of this size and remove it from its current location. Mine slides into the back of a car with the seats folded down...small mercies eh! Thank you for posting. I am in awe!
Captivating. The whole layout is captured so well with the video. Those sound chips are pretty amazing, I've not ventured into sound yet. Loft layouts definitely rule. Looking forward to the next video.
Great running session, enjoyed the steam effect from your "Golden Eagle". 20 weathered wagon train looks the part but don't envy the time and effort it took to do them. Enjoyed the sound the class 37 made especially on your slight incline. Thanks for sharing please take care and stay safe..
i like the use of a "run along" loco with cameras at both ends if thats how you used it. absolutely lovely layout that will and should motivate others to go and sit and play with and improve their own spreads. well done. taking that steam model the LNER up to speed was a treat as well
You've certainly managed to take a 40 foot loft and turn it into 500 miles of track, trains and detail. Fantastic stuff and such a feat with what I thought was O gauge too! Coming from the OO gauge side myself, I know space can be an issue but you're lay-out, modelling and camera-work are superb. Thank you for the great running session, sir. Keep Well now. Cheers! [Edit: Missed Context]
Thanks very much for a great comment, yes I'm very lucky to have this space and the OO is just right for me. N gauge is to small but I do have a O gauge 37 that I run up our club. All the best. Mick
I really enjoyed the video Michael. This is one of the best model railways I have seen. I am sure that they use the same wagons that were hauled by the 37 at Barnetby in North Lincolnshire. Today is my birthday and I found this video. So it must be my lucky day as well. I look forward to the next running session mate. I will be building my model railway soon as well and I am looking forward to it to be honest. All the best Ash.
Your layout is amazing, the best of the best, love the loco's you have and the sounds are superb, I remember the 3x Class 37 (usually 37-300 series locos) Pulling the Iron Ore from Port Talbot to Llanwern Steel Works in the late 70- early 80's passing Cardiff every day, Definitely a Gold Medal Lay-out, well done.
Wonderfull job . Its amazing. Im just starting to build my first laoyout. I have a 4 MTS x 3 MTS room to doit . Regards from argentina. Thanks for sharing . ANd sorry about my english.😄🤗❤️
Mick the layout looks so good I don't think I have seen one as good on youtube before, congratulations it really is quite realistic looking. Thanks for taking me for a run.
Huh, I'm a bit disappointed the barriers at the level crossing didn't go up after the train pass through, only joking but WOW what a fantastic layout, even if I won the lottery I'd never would have the time to build such a brilliant railway...hope the wife doesn't decide to move to the seaside.
Thanks Mick for another enjoyable video , I love ❤️ the camera angles of watching the locomotives 🚂 coming towards the camera & the thundering sounds, the clicking sounds coming off the tracks, so realistic! It was a bonus to see the A4 Golden Eagle with the added bonus of the smoke oil, fantastic job Mick, looking forward to the next video.🤗🙏
Thanks Robert. Yes I'm doing great now and thank you for keeping in touch. Have been working on the layout, your see a bit of a change on the next video. Take care. Mick
Lovely update and running session Mick. The nuclear flasks look awesome sandwiched between the 68's but the best loco of the day was the 37 at the end. I think that red livery suits it well. All the best, David.
Hello David nice to hear from you. Thanks for your comment, yes this 37 has not been run for ages so a little clean up and it was ready to go. Agree lovely livery, looked good pulling that lot. Take care. Mick
Excellent mick great to see your layout again. I did have one of the dapol a4s when they were first released but it had to go back as it wouldn't run right didn't get a replacement as a few people I know also had problems. yours is the first I've seen the works well.
I did have one of the wires broken which I had to fix before I ran it. The only problem I have had is no smoke now comes out of the whistle when sounded but I can live with that. Take care Oliver and thanks for the comment. Mick
Great video mick everything looks great am just waiting for my colas 68 to return to me once it's been painted can't wait hopefully get back into the hobby again can't seem to get back in to it cheers Paul
Hello Paul. Thanks for watching and your comment. Get that 68 up onto the layout and start enjoying the hobby again, all down to motivation, take care. Mick
@@michaelsmith-hn1cn hi mick well am back in the shed now ripped up all my layout started again and last week I bought the kua wagons and to drs coaches so must be getting back into again I've started to lay some time but am not rushing it doing bits at a time cheers Paul
Quite a busy line for freight. You can almost smell the diesel oil. It also looks a rather overcast kind of day, and perhaps with traces of dust from a near by cement works or industrial processing unit. Do the passengers have to wait very long for a train?
How do you keep a) the rails clean? b) the layout dusted? Amazing railway, I’m inspired by yours and considering buying a new larger shed to accommodate a layout.
Hello again Alan. I use a CMX cleaner, some times a rubber and sometimes a piece of rag with white sprit. I use white sprit in the CMX. Thanks for asking. A Henry hoover to go over the track and a soft brush over the buildings with the Henry. Mick
Thanks a lot Mick. Been collecting stock the last 2y, dreaming of a layout. Wish I could just download all your skills and knowledge of building one. But, learning is part of the fun!
The Loco's have what is known as a sound Decoder inside each Loco. You purchase them with the sound of the class of loco you want. I'm I have already replied to this but I have replied again. Take care. Mick
Thanks Phil for your comment much appreciated. The loco pulling and pushing are Dapol class 68's. I have 5 on the layout 2 repaints colas, freightliner and a Transrail pennine. Take care. Mick
Layout is looking great, especially like the newly weathered JNA-T wagons. When running the 68 in consist do you speed match or make one a dummy? All the best and thanks for sharing.
Hi. With these I know they have the same decoders fitted so I know they run together ok. I do speed check sometimes to see how they run but I never run dummy's . Thanks for asking. Take care. Mick
Absolutely brilliant. One of the best layouts I`ve ever seen. Had to keep reminding myself it was only a model railway !

Wow! How do you get the sound effects and steam from the locos...I assume this isn't your bog standard Hornby models?
The Loco's have what is known as a sound Decoder inside each Loco. You purchase them with the sound of the class of loco you want. I'm I have already replied to this but I have replied again. Take care. Mick
Another great video mate kept it up
Thank you for your continued support. All the best. Mick
@@michaelsmith-hn1cn you’re very welcome! Take care stay safe. Ollie
@@learningoogauge3452 Thanks Ollie
Well Done. Thank you for posting
Thank you John, hope enjoyed it. All the best. Mick
Amazing layout.....can I ask...what model is the loco pulling the accurascale nuclear flasks?
Thanks Phil for your comment much appreciated. The loco pulling and pushing are Dapol class 68's. I have 5 on the layout 2 repaints colas, freightliner and a Transrail pennine. Take care. Mick
Layout is looking great, especially like the newly weathered JNA-T wagons. When running the 68 in consist do you speed match or make one a dummy? All the best and thanks for sharing.
Hi. With these I know they have the same decoders fitted so I know they run together ok. I do speed check sometimes to see how they run but I never run dummy's . Thanks for asking. Take care. Mick
Awesome layout. I have a layout only HALF the size!
Thank you very much for viewing, do you have you layout on UA-cam. All the best. Mick
@@michaelsmith-hn1cn no I don't. But I just came back from Great eastern model railways in Norwich. Spent over 100 on stuff for my layout
@@BrecklandSpotting Soon be up and running then. Good modeling. Mick
NIce locos and rolling stock ... Picking one era is suggested (I know it is hard to do!)
Thanks for watching and the comment. By not sticking one era I can buy far more stock to run plus I'm stuck with in certain years. All the best. Mick
What a pisser ! Love it.
Well thank you for that Colin, glad you liked it, take care. Mick
Great to have a trip along a nice long railway but what is a largish crane doing on a passenger platform?
Hi. It was put on from a broken wagon 20 years ago but it is coming off. Tanks for the comment. Mick
