Back in the shed after GETs. New arrival and running clips

@@rogerwolstenholme2710 t Thank you very much Roger. Your very welcome. Cheers Peter

Hi ya Peter. Fantastic meeting you at GETS. It was a brilliant two days, met so many new people. Got some great mates from KZbin. Did manage to vlog a lot of layouts there, unlike the nightmare we had last year. Myself and Lord Al even managed to get mini-me's done.😅 Love both the cranes. Mind you anything would look good on your lovely layout. Those hoppers are superb, one of my favourite freight wagons. We stay at the Premier Inn when at GETS, couple of miles away. £6.50 cab fare, saves all the stress with parking. Thanks for the great running session Peter. Stay safe. Thumbs up thumped 👍 ....Pete and Su....

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Thanks Pete, yes was great to meet up, so many of us as well, looking forward to your update on the layout. All the very best Peter

[@AlanReynoldsBucklandJunction]

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

And I too meeting you Al. Really a great day All the best Peter

[@peterwoodley7473]

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Yep :)

[@TONYNORTHEASTERN]

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

[@ChadwickModelRailway]

Great stuff, Peter.

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Thank you very much Charlie, was great meeting up with you at GETs, All the best Peter

[@ModelRailwayShed]

Hello Peter! Absolute pleasure and honour to meet you and talk to you at GETs. Both cranes are stunning models. All the best Deano

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Likewise Deano, was a great day All the best Peter

[@midsomerrailwaynscale]

Hi Peter very nice cranes

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Thank you Peter

[@hotdogpilot6319]

Indeed Peter, it was quite an experience. Livery's seem to be a can of worms these days, X does this and Y makes that. The new and older crane match up quite well and the action is always entertaining.

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Cheers mate had a great time All the best Peter

[@ModelTrainOutsider]

Hello, Peter! We were indeed over the moon with our weekend at GETS and Warley. We saw precious little of the layouts ourselves. It was such a whirlwind. It was a real honor and thrill to meet you, though I think Joyce talked to you more than me. The resin crane kit was amazing, even when compared to the mass production model. Both looked great running. The entire session was a great watch; almost a pseudo- ops session. Excellent production all around! Cheers and thanks for your kindness!

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Hi Anthony, so very glad you and Joyce had a great time. I know I did, so many and as you say not enough time. Was great to meet the both of you All the best Peter

[@SimsHandle]

I completely agree with the engineering trains. They are pretty much region and era agnostic with just a change of livery. I’ve suggested it to other manufacturers.

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Hi and yes indeed, judging how these are selling shows there's a wanting for this sort of thing Thanks very much Cheers Peter

[@charlie1872]

Hi Péter, glad your parking worked out. We have the same system here in Toronto at the end if the subway line. One time I was going downtown, parked the car and jumped on tgd subway. It wasn’t until I git disney there 45 mins later I realized I had not paid. No problem, I called them up and told them what happened; tgey asked me what my plate number was and where the car was. Done👍 Looks like you had a great time at the show. I will get there one tear

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Hi Charlie, yes I can see that we can pay for parking that way very handy. Well done you in modelling UK outline while in Toronto All the best Peter

[@charlie1872]

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Thank you very much Kev, like the idea of the uk departure board with live station announcements, not sure if it would work for me as Im out of range from the wi-fi if that's what it needs Cheers Peter

[@darrenfawkner2018]

Love them mate would you know if a n gauge model is possible 😉

[@torridonroadbypeterdixon4162]

Hi Darren, Yeah I don't think EFE will, as far as I know they don't do N gauge in their rolling stock, sorry Cheers Peter

[@StormmyStormmy]

Hi Pete, great video catch up, unfortunately I didn’t see you at G.E.Ts, it would have been great to meet you, maybe Warley this month, thanks for sharing.
