Brilliant layout, and it was good to hear you speak of the Baggies ground as I have supported them since 1961. I was drawn to your video by the layout name as I used to live in Charlemont Avenue near Stone Cross, and enjoyed my young days train spotting at West Brom and Snow Hill stations etc. Now retired in Aberdeenshire, I am still a railways nut, and still follow WBA.

Well that was enjoyable, I never realised you had so much greenery on the layout, and trees too! Could have watched all day, nice. Thanks Dave.

Heritage lines are great for model railways and it keeps the rivet counters away! Nothing like seeing a Castle on my local Severn Valley Railway hauling either their LNER or LMS passenger stock trains. I always say to the modeller it's your layout to do with as you please. Great layout, a real credit to you. Thanks for posting, liked and subscribed.

Stunning layout and fascinating operations. You may be interested to know that including the three grey 'unfitted' wagons in the consist, means that a brake van is required. Recommend just running the brown (bauxite) liveried wagons with no brake van. All the best.
