Welcome to The Wagon. In this episode, we get trains running on the OO gauge layout. Sorry there isn’t any O gauge coaches this time. I will make sure we make some progress on them in the next instalment

A really good video looking forward to seeing it progress

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you Edward. I appreciate the comment

[@BrianSanders-tn7pi]

Good work Steve. Always great to watch trains running. Your progressing well, and you can never go wrong with a bit of Alanis. Will keep following your updates.

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you. I appreciate it. I am working on the next video at the moment

[@duncanrhodes4778]

Superb. Another top video, you have made the wiring look very straightforward. You can put any combination of coaches you like on that old Deltic and it will still look fabulous. Well done, keep up the good work.

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you again Duncan. There will be more Deltic videos to come

[@Shelvington_Railway]

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Wow, Steve, the layout has come on, and you got trains running excellent stuff 👏

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you. I appreciate it. Lots more to come

[@ivanpage9520]

Smashing video Steve. Amazed at how much track you've laid down, every piece of space has a use, brilliant. Look forward to seeing you soon, all the best. Toot ! Toot !

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you Ivan. When I’ve got it a towards finished, you’ll get an invite over for a play. Do you mind if I do a bit of filming at your place when you next have an open day to add to the channel?

[@ivanpage9520]

Be my guest, anything we can do to help each other out and to spread railway modeling hobby.

[@hillmanhalt]

Great update. Thanks for sharing. And a nice bit of Alanis Morissette too!

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Hi there. Thank you. I appreciate it. Yeah I had completely forgotten that still had the radio on. I normally have it on when I'm working in the wagon and occasionally forget to turn it off.

Great video again, Steve, and it's interesting for my grandson and I, as we will be having our first attempts at soldering when he starts his 009 layout. I think a little bit of practice on some old track first will be a good idea. My grandson has just filmed a rock concert and posted on his Dylington Model Railway channel. It's turned out quite well if you get a chance have a look. Anyway, it's an enjoyable video looking forward to your next offering...Cheers James 🙂👍

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Hey James. Thank you again. I look forward to seeing your 009 layout come together. I will be starting work on my 009 layout sometime soon. Hopefully we can inspire each other. Pass on my well done to your grandson for me.

[@DYLINGTONMODELRAILWAY]

@the-wagon-Steve Hi Steve, I will pass on your comments to my grandson tonight when I see him. I see you've subscribed to his channel as well. Thank you for that it's very much appreciated, and we are looking forward to seeing your 009 layout whenever you get round to it. We are building the baseboard this weekend and hope to make a start on it over the Easter school holidays... Cheers James 🙂👍

Thank you Peter. I’m trying to keep the content going

[@darrelldeltic807]

Nice update and running session! Just subbed 😃👍

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you Darrell. I appreciate the comment and the sub

[@anitasuejones4793]

Great update Steve. You need to look at you audio, I have to turn the volume up so high to here you.

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you Anita. I appreciate the comments. I will look into the audio for the next one

[@lucitonstjames3925]

Nice one, gotta love a deltic piling on the amps. 312's looking good, Southern Pride?

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Hey there. Thank you. Yes it is a Southern Pride 312. I managed to get the last two and traded one to get the other one made by a professional. It’s one of my favourite models

[@peterp696]

Nice job

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Thank you Peter

[@markabbott358]

Hi Steve, Great content again, especially the Wagon, it is a real credit to your DIY skills that you took it from a total wreck to a brilliant home for your hobbying activities. I am still 12 - 18 months away from having the space (and time) to start on my OO gauge layout, so I will be watching your updates on a regular basis. Also is your Lanc an RC model or a 1/32 model kit ? I have plans to create a Bomber diorama space permitting in my retirement man cave once procured.. Keep up the great content Kindest regards Mark

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Hey Mark. Thank you buddy. The wagon is my pride and joy. I’m so very proud of it. And it cost less than you’d think. There is always time to start modelling Mark. I have two jobs. Modelling is my escape from the stress of life. Start with some small building kits and work your way up to bigger stuff. The Lancaster is a foam flying model. I talk about it in my second video. I love my warbirds and the lanc is one of my favourites. If I could fit something along the lines of an aviation museum on the layout, I would. I have plenty of kits to build one day. Thank you. Regards. Steve

[@markabbott358]

Tx Steve, to be fair I also have an N gauge test layout that I was converting to from OO ( size constraints) but I have now realised that I have too big fingers and my eyesight is not getting better.. So I am switching back to OO, might even dabble in O gauge having seen EC's Black 5 model.. Meanwhile I will persevere with my little N gauge project so that my skills will have hopefully improved by the time I get back to my OO project ! I run my own business so time is not a problem but space is hence the N gauge project. I also agree about working on the layout does provide a great release from dealing with day to day issues. I retire in Aug 25 so will be full steam ahead then. I also enjoy aircraft modelling hence my question about your Lanc, I have watched all your videos but could not remember the origin of your Lanc. tx again.@@the-wagon-Steve

[@minos5548]

nice nice to see trains running ,love to see how you wired up your lift out section .I was wondering did you cut the copper ties on lift out section as you seemed to solder both rails to on long copper strip .I used a hinged lift up section as that was easier for me to wire up.. thank you for sharing your progress .. john

[@the-wagon-Steve]

hey John. I did cut the copper sleepers..... well .... not all of them. When it came time to power the layout up i had a dead short. It took me a while to figure out that it was one of the copper clads. Everything ran well after that. I am planning on replacing the lift out section with a hinged section. that will be for another episode.

If your coming to Crewe MIOG show come and say hello, I'm working the Peco stand, have you done anymore with the Triang Big Train mk2's

[@the-wagon-Steve]

Hey Andy. I managed to get to MIOG by the skin of my teeth. I think I got there around 3 ish. If I’d seen your comment before I got there, I would definitely have popped over to say hello. Maybe next time you are at a show. The latest video is out and has some progress on the Mk2s. Thank you for watching and for the comment
