Gn15 Model Railway Diary of TippY AshwooD

Gn15 Model railway Diary of Tippy AshwooD, Inspired by Roland Emett & the kits from Small Brook Studios.

[@lescoleman4963]

That's got so much atmosphere Bob. I modelled and exhibited in GN15 some 20 years ago. Although the layouts were sold, luckily I kept the locos and stock. Your videos have helped inspire me to take the scale up again. Thank you.

[@TippY_AshwooD]

Thank-you. I Confes My OO has been left behind a little since I got into the Gn15

[@nerd1059]

I love the spirit of these, the good feelings that come from just listening. Really museum like quality through video, I hope your satisfaction is complete....you deserve to be proud of these. You have brought joy to the world, sir.

[@TippY_AshwooD]

Kind words . Thank-you. I try to present to the best of my skill and ability. I confess my skills lie in model making not film editing

Glad you enjoy. thanks for commenting Stevyn

[@nicolaiitchenko7610]

THE MOST fascinating model railroad channel (with sadly few videos to watch) on You Tube.

[@TippY_AshwooD]

Thanks Frank, alas the video's take a lot of doing, and my model making is better than my filming. So for the time being I am trying to stick to the four seasonal videos a year. but glad you enjoy

[@peterbudd1803]

Love it 🙂

[@TippY_AshwooD]

Thank-you Peter. sorry I haven't filmed anything lately. but its on the way

Glad your enjoying the Videos and " TippY AshwooD" Joe just starting the filming on my Autumn one

[@stephencordell6661]

Bob got to say you have done it again, great video and inspiration, just love watching them. Really hope to see it exhibited one day, shame more people don’t model in GN15, it a great scale and cheaper than any of the big garden railway scales.

[@TippY_AshwooD]

Thanks Stephen, I have to admit working in this scale is a pleasure. its getting a bit big to move, but I have a plan. !! sort of

[@TravelinginMiniature]

Noticed you have smoke in on of the engines, do you like it? Do you use it often? I’m thinking of adding smoke but not sure.

[@TippY_AshwooD]

I do like having the option. but I don't use it a lot, more for the wow factor when I am filming

[@dawdawes]

Just found your fantasy world as I'm looking into Gn15 myself. Are the locos DCC sound equipped , they sounded like it and have you used the Hornby chassis. If yes they run well

[@TippY_AshwooD]

I run Dead Rail with a 1" sound cube. I use Blue rail chips Bluetoothed through my phone with their generic sound. I am questioning my decision on this however I think I have one episode about the system early on. Thanks for watching, it's a great scale to work in, you will enjoy

[@dawdawes]

@@TippY_AshwooD hadn't even heard of dead rail, that looks interesting, mind you I've been DCC since 2004 so have the equipment available

[@TippY_AshwooD]

@@dawdawes Face book have a Dead Rail page interesting to keep an eye on this technology

[@dkaustin98]

Good job and different. In watching you tall engines and tall cars wobbling it appears those are top heavy. Have you tried adding weight to counter the wobble? Weight in the lower part of the tall equipment would improve your running. Deluxe Materials produces a product you can pour and glue in place.

[@TippY_AshwooD]

Yep. they do wobble. and I have had issues. they all have car wheel weights stuck on down low, as well as the Smal brook studio kits have lead shot in the chassis castings. but where there is a will there is a way. we will figure it out. I will look up the deluxe material stuff. thank-you
