Magnificent. Painstaking work to achieve such a realistic effect.

Thanks for your kind comment, Stephen, you might like to know that Steve has now set up a dedicated 'Neville Grove' KZbin channel here: kzbin.info/door/cVfL87Ws2b4Tq0Q68_Ir1Avideos. It's already got one video that isn't on my channel (it's an LNER B12 as it happens) and there are more to come. He'd love you to subscribe!

Fantastic work matching the in service cleaned looked of the A3s I have seen in the rare colour photos of the era.

[@MrTBrearley]

Agreed John. I'm about to send Steve a B1, 'GNU', for the full 'Neville Grove' treatment, inspired by just one of those photos you mention, a 1948 shot at York. I'm equally in awe of his video skills and the way he syncs the old Transacord sound to the models.

Agreed, John, and you might like to know that Steve has now set up a dedicated 'Neville Grove' KZbin channel here: kzbin.info/door/cVfL87Ws2b4Tq0Q68_Ir1Avideos. It's already got one video that isn't on my channel (it's another LNER in green) and there are more to come. I'm hoping to send him 'GNU' at some point for the same treatment. Do check the channel, he'd love you to subscribe!

Some of the most interesting model railway videography I've ever seen… magical!

[@MrTBrearley]

It is superb, Ryan, I agree. All Steve's own work in shooting and editing., Videography is my trade (see rest of site) but I doubt I could achieve his standards. Depressing that he's so super-talented in two fields! You might like to know that Steve has now set up a dedicated 'Neville Grove' KZbin channel here: kzbin.info/door/cVfL87Ws2b4Tq0Q68_Ir1Avideos.

Hi, very realistic run by. Nice weathering job. Thanks for sharing.

[@MrTBrearley]

Hi Filip - worth checking out his website. Amazing work for very reasonable prices!

[@johnbrown9092]

MrTBrearley I will certainly take a look. Thanks.

[@johnlewsey4458]

Great video

[@MrTBrearley]

Thanks John. I film video myself but can claim no credit for this. It's all Steve's work and I just offered to host it in thanks for a beautiful weathering transformation he carried out for me on the L&Y Bachmann tank
