It looks real!

Another great video Keir. 👏🏻

Great

Excellent as always. Looking forward to a general update, love to see more of the pub and station area that we’ve only had a brief glimpse of.

clukin bell think thats the first sleeper iv ever seen on a layout well done!

Correct Guage to model here in ireland is 21mm.all the rtr irish models can be converted to 21 mm easily. Nice layout u have.

Excellent video Kier as always. Love the DMU running session especially. Cam you please tell me more about the first piece of music in the video ? Many thanks

Good morning Kier 😊 What a fantastic opening video with X2 Sulzer 25s on a long coal train 👍🏻 Just miss the early days of the 70s as I was born in 1957 but it was my favourite era of train spotting so this really does depict BR blue without tops 🤣 Cheer Stevie

Those new Accurscale Class 31s look very good. Could you have ordered them directly from Accurascle with EM gauge wheels already fitted?

Now that's a nicely detailed layout based upon the era I grew up in as a kid. Nice dmus, old cravens style,

Absolutely brilliant as always I forgot all about my troubles & strife completely wrapped up as a kid in the 70’s with my mates Train Spotting

Yes, it's good to have another visit. I wonder what you make of the new Accurascale MK1 suburban's. I like them but methinks a more orange internal light would represent cigarette tar on the innards better?

Genius, keep experimenting if this is what comes of it!

Always nice to see this layout

Very enjoyable. Skilful, but clearly taught. Thanks

For a few moments there, I was transported back to my youth on a local Dmu journey. The sounds and a view from the windows. It was a journey I used to take most weekends to go train spotting. Thank you

that is just fantastic

Hi Keir. Could you tell me how you weather your buses? Have you applied Matt varnish to dull them down? Mine are very shiny and want to improve the appearance but don’t want to spoil them! Thanks!

More please!

This is brilliant. Can we have some more?

Hi, I really like your railway and seeing it from this propective was super but only let down by the train interior so there is another way to do this and one of your comments does say about graphics so to see what you can do please have a look at my go at this type of video from a few years ago entitled "CAB VIEW WITH GRAPHICS 3a" now its not a super video a bit of fun really but if you like what you see please let me know and I will help you to use this way. Cheers Robert.

Well worth showing to a wider audience! Your trackside & layout detail shows in snatches & glimpse closely approximate to the 1:1 scale ‘original’.

I thought that the figures on the platform, seemed to be more lifelike when viewed from inside the carriage, making up for the obvious lack of movement. Maybe just a fleeting glimpse tricks the eye. A great new take on a fabulous layout, Kier

Love that DMU sound. Was it a 117? Reminded me of Barking-Gospel Oak back in the 1980s. Like to get that sound for my Bachmann. Thank you more please

More please! Driver’s view videos are great but in reality, that’s a perspective only afforded to a select few. This is how most of us see the railway and it really shows the quality of the modelling. Very, very convincing.

Great idea. Don’t think you have got it right yet but certainly going in the right direction and very inspiring.

Seriously impressive.

Hi, a great experiment. I know your railway has a ton of very fine detail all over the place, but it really stands out in this video experiment as looking so very lifelike..............A real credit to your attention to detail. Thank you, all the very best Dave.

Really lovely and atmospheric. A similar video taken with the camera behind the driver in the cab of a diesel with forward and driver side window view would I suspect have a similar lovel effect.

Amazing, I love it! Only improvement would be the DMU interior, but as you say it's a mockup

Really really good! Enjoyed that 😃👍😊

one of the best videos I've ever seen, love it

That's a really interesting idea. As you say, the interior is too fuzzy, but when the train is moving along in "daylight" the views are really quite convincing. At model size you are never going to get a realistic depth of field to simulate how the human eye sees things at 1:1 scale unless you use massively bright lighting and then stop the lens down to a tiny, tiny aperture, even if you're using a small sensor size. I'm a photographer, but not a videographer so I don't know if such gear exists. I think it's worth pursuing though, because the effect looks very promising. Another way might be to film a sideways view from a flatbed wagon and then superimpose an interior image over the footage, though to my eyes this always looks very artificial and not at all convincing.

Always love my days trainspotting at Hornsey Broadway now I get to collect numbers home on the DMU.... absolutely brilliant 👏 can't wait for more of same

Might be possible in video software to take an interior pic of the carriage, in photoshop make the windows green and in a video of normal running use the 'green screen technique on the green so the video plays behind and is only seen through the windows.

Nice, a solution might be to build a mockup interior on a coach chassis extended out over the side and put a few seats and passengers on and run the trains on the 'other' track so you get some depth in the carriage mock up which might help.

Nice one Kier, most enjoyable 👏🏻

This is very interesting and unusual!

You just need someone with a notebook scribbling down the numbers as they go by. Fantastic video!

Excellent video, love the ceiling lights.Hope to see alot more of these types of video. Only thing to improve if possible was the audio quality as I found it a bit too quiet. But great to see from a passengers perspective. ❤🙂👍

Loved this little experiment may I hope you show more clips like this in future shorts and mini videos!

Enjoy, I did. Ignore the nay sayers. The view from the windows was very nostalgic and very realistic. I particularly liked the way the shadows (presumably from the sun) drifted across the inside of the DMU. It may have been unintentional but it certainly added to the realism. Thanks, Bob

Brilliant !! very nostalgic !! Your on to something there !!!

IMHO I think this is great! So atmospheric too. I don’t recall seeing anything like this before. 😅

As always another terrific trainspotting experience.. Loved to see my fav,s like the old redundant tube stock drag (thanks Kier!), Deltics in full cry, and the 501's. The tunnel rescue was an unexpected view of things happening behind the scenes!!

This is marvellous and has really brightened up my afternoon. Thank you.

Brilliant!!!

I like this layout, EXCEPT, please get rid of the class 56's they do not belong here. They look completely out of place.

Enjoyed every minute.

.. 🤔💭 I'll correct you slightly. The '38 stock was headed for the Isle Of Wight!! 🚇🏝️ 😊
