HM Twelve Trees at Basingstoke

[@RB-hx7rd]

Superb Southern layout full of authenticity,well done !

[@evercreechjunction81]

My daughter and I both enjoy the exhibition this year, & it was good to see twelve trees junction at a local exhibition. It was also great to see a variety of rolling stock on the layout, as I have read in Hornby Magazine about your intention to bring more verity to this great layout, now I look forward to reading about the extra scenic section & the new signals that are due to be done. All the best & Happy Modelling, TM81(PhilsTrains)

Great looking layout would love to see more great rolling stock

Wonderful layout and an impressive array of southern region emus. Was the 4epb modified from Bachmann 2epb units? And I’d love to know where the bulleid epb came from 🙂

Lovely sequence!

[@ModelRailwaysUnlimited]

Really nice to see

[@dennisroyhall121]

Extremely well done and realistically too eg driverless and passengerless to boot! Just as well given the new route for the Brighton Belle goes via Basingstoke now! Nothing like variety for the spice of life! Even in railway history a Brighton Atlantic or two operated from Basingstoke tho’ precisely in which year I cannot say and I have heard that even one of the two BrightonPacific tanks served from Basingstoke as well....My guess is that these operations were during the early war years.

Great Video !

I really wish Hornby and Bachmann would start giving us RTR EM gauge options!

[@kirktonroadjunction193]

Superb layout.. Any plans to bring it to Glasgow next year?

[@markconnell5365]

The steam locos especially need crews.

[@aigen56]

The signal gantries in this video are they possibly ratio kits?

[@WilliamMooreHCFS]

aigen56 yes sir. I read about the Hornby Magazine team building them in the publication of the same name.

[@hornbymag]

They are static Ratio signal gantry kits. The large gantry is a combination of two kits to span across five tracks.HM.

What is the size of this layout? Excellent video

[@hornbymag]

At Matt, the layout is 24ft x 10ft in its new format as shown here. HM

[@tomhackney1261]

Hey, saw this at the show in the motor museum last year, and at warley, was impressed both times Is that a DJ or Hornby class 71? Ta

[@intercity-mq6qv]

May I ask is the layout dc or dcc?

[@WilliamMooreHCFS]

intercity 125 125 I'm pretty sure it's DCC. I read about in a copy of Hornby Mag. Plus, you'd be hard pressed to get such good sounds without DCC.

[@intercity-mq6qv]

William A. Moore thank you

[@hornbymag]

It is DCC controlled. We use Gaugemaster Prodigy for train control with Hornby's RailMaster/Elite connected to the point/accessory power bus. HM

[@intercity-mq6qv]

Hornby Magazine thank you
