New Junction Model Railway EP33 - My New Model Railway Studio!

[@Conrail1731]

Congrats on the new space. Now you can let your imagination run wild with bigger dreams , plans and schemes. 👍👍

[@Angrist17]

Very exciting development. One of my favorite Lego KZbinrs bought a studio space and moved his entire operation into it about a year ago, vastly expanding his city and display space. It was a big change but has resulted in a ton of awesome progress with his builds and videos. It'll be awesome to see what you do with this new space to build your layout.

[@dpin6072]

Like the new space. Very excited for you and looking forward to future updates.

[@hovermotion]

Wow that is a great space with good lighting. Amazing move, full steam ahead..

[@NewJunction]

@hovermotion thanks chap!

[@janetlewis7145]

Richard, congratulations on the move of New Junction. We have been following you for the last 4 years from our home in central California. Bill and Janet.

[@DaventryParkway]

I had to wait 36 years and move to Thailand to have enough space to start again! No cold lofts or garages here, good luck with the new home. 👍

[@kevinmottram9491]

So this is now New, New, New Junction! That looks like a great space in which to take the layout up to the next level.

[@nigelcole1936]

Congratulations on the new junction in the journey for New Junction

[@georgethomas7814]

Yes Very exciting well done and good luck.

[@upwellonwards7373]

congrats on the new space and having New Junction in its full length good on ya richard quite a upgrade from when the layout was in the loft many moons ago cant wait to see progress buddy

[@sydneyfilms6445]

Well done, it’s great to see things progressing, It must be so exciting. I look forward to seeing you at ModelRail next month.

[@R1door]

This suits the layout and vision for new junction! Love full layout mode

[@roberthocking9138]

Nice work, and now you have your garage back 👍

[@NewJunction]

Aha indeed!

[@railwayjade]

This is so cool Richard!

[@jayl8034]

Wow Congratulations! I thought you were a bit "young" in YT to expand, but you did it. You will be expanding your layout as we all dream could do given the space! We'll be doing it vicariously through you.

[@walterreil4001]

P.S. That is a BIG project, and commitment, for you!

[@stephendavies6949]

Congrats, Richard. I wish you well in NJ's new home, and look forward to following your adventures as you take full advantage of this new opportunity. A weak bleach solution should kill that mould.

[@robertbabbs9694]

Good luck with your new plans I look forward to seeing what is next

[@ModelTrainOutsider]

Absolutelyawesome to make that move! Hopefully it is not too much of a bother, but it has so much potential

[@mikehumphrey7413]

Great new development for New Junction. Lot of work to complete this Layout. Mike HO Australia.

[@davidstrains4910]

Great video overall Richard, will certainly be interesting seeing the layout development now that it’s going to be in exhibition model a lot more, keep up the great work.

[@H_chapman17]

Looks good richard congratulations on your new layout home

[@NewJunction]

@@H_chapman17 many thanks!

[@alexure313]

Looks great and well done, would love to see it at the SECC in Glasgow sometime.

[@Bighell01]

Enjoy the progress!!!!

[@NewJunction]

Thanks!

Mate, this is so awesome! Looking forward to seeing New Junction develop!

[@robertbate5790]

Huge improvement Richard. Opening the layout is so much better. Congratulations on your great find.

[@NewJunction]

Thanks 👍

[@mauraking7620]

Wow Richard that is fantastic. Glad the move went well. You will fly through the rest of the build now with the amount of space and ease of access to the various areas of the layout. I reckon with the amount of space you have there you could easily extend 😂😂😂😂😂. Best of luck

[@NewJunction]

No! Haha although progress will be easier!

[@colinharris5740]

Looks fantastic Richard. Good luck and look forward to your future videos showing progress!

[@NewJunction]

Many thanks

[@timfellows8334]

Well done Richard and well done Accurascale

[@walterreil4001]

From California -- I will also add -- CONGRATULATIONS! This is a HUGE moment and move for you! Now you will have more breathing room -- and more space for more trackage? 🤪

[@stephenriley9084]

That is tremendous! Remember Newcastle? Now that you are out of the house, you are a prince at home, if not in the garden! More power to you. Regards, Stephen.

[@NewJunction]

Thanks Stephen! ❤

[@davidsmethurst4318]

Really good luck for the future. Looking forward to it 👍

[@douglasirons1350]

Congratulations Richard on the new location for New Junction, looking forward to seeing what you get up to with this large space, good luck 🤞

[@NewJunction]

You and me both!

[@lukewolsey]

Seems only yesterday you were moving into the garage. Looks really good in the new place.

[@NewJunction]

@@lukewolsey it's been 4 years now aha

Thanks 👍

[@brianrobinson2962]

It's looking fantastic mate

[@NewJunction]

Thanks!

[@hermitageroad4713]

that must have been a huge amount of work Richard well done

[@NewJunction]

Luckily I knew a couple of guys... 😅

[@briansewell7263]

Congrats Richard, i hope its close enough to home too. No more late nights in garage after kids are in bed now. You have a good lady supporting you so that you can set up the new home for NJ How did the chinchilla sand stand up to the transportation? Looking forward to many more updates Thanks for sharing

[@Rookieracer87]

Congrats buddy 🎉 very much looking forward to the progress in the new home

[@NewJunction]

@@Rookieracer87 thanks pal

[@sydwoods.woodsendjunction9492]

Great new Richard looking good keep up the good work and you'l get there matey can't wait to see more as you get things together many thanks a t b Syd👍

[@NewJunction]

@@sydwoods.woodsendjunction9492 thanks Syd!

[@DudleyCentral]

Looks fantastic and all very exciting! 🎉

[@NewJunction]

Thanks Joe, it's all the inspiration from your shorts! 😁

[@ClydebridgeStation]

Great to see it in exhibition mode Richard! And no, I wasn't screaming at the screen, as I realised that, when it was in the old place, there was no fiddle yard; it meant moving it required you to build one. I knew you would mention that, but please, take your time building it! But yeah, it's a great new home, but it needs pictures of class 47s in BR sectorisation days on it. If only you knew someone with thirty five class 47s on their layout......! Not forgetting, hopefully see you at Model Rail Scotland!

[@NewJunction]

Haha if only!

[@algie1962]

Hugely envious of the space you have there, currently my layout is in my garden cabin and east to access at the drop of a hat, but I can’t help thinking that your new unit is a journey away, and also the security aspect would be a concern, these trains ain’t cheap, especially some of the 10-11 car monsters you have. Looking forward to seeing you getting all running again, keep up the good work and keep those videos coming.

[@InvertedPopesMusic]

How absolutely amazing a really fantastic move. Looking forward now to the progress and videos this will bring. Nice one.

[@NewJunction]

@@InvertedPopesMusic thanks!

[@ChobertonJunction]

@@NewJunctionHi Richard, I was on my other musician channel when I commented 🤣 So will echo my earlier words and say how absolutely amazing. Nice one.

[@NewJunction]

@@ChobertonJunction haha thanks, again!

[@marklittlejohn1457]

Wot an amazing space good luck for the future 👍

[@NewJunction]

Thanks!

[@dougnewton1356]

Congrates on the new home... really looking forward to see the movement forward on the layout... though slightly jealous of the space and time to do the modelling!

[@NewJunction]

You and me both!

[@supercar-junction]

Awsome how the layout is coming on

[@NewJunction]

@@supercar-junction thanks pal

[@darknut9696]

With the extra space, the sound fitted locos sound more amazing its like they have room to speak

[@NewJunction]

@darknut9696 yes, although the echo might need addressing

[@user-eb8ld6kn8t]

Exciting development. Why don't you take it to exhibitions in current form. Your channel is all about the build and the journey, and it would be nice to see that for real. Keep up the good work

[@ChadwickModelRailway]

Brilliant Richard, but I imagine that’s the end of garage mode.😢 See you in Scotland for a beer or two. Regards Charlie.

[@anfieldroadlayoutintheloft5204]

Great vlog thanks for sharing the update on your layout thanks lee

[@NewJunction]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@ghighlandchieftain4462]

I like new space I am happy for you I can't more update on layout

[@GoodfordModelRailway]

This is fantastic news, congratulations!

[@NewJunction]

@@GoodfordModelRailway thanks!

[@GoodfordModelRailway]

@ genuinely just started searching for a local unit after seeing your video, you’re an inspiration 👍

[@NewJunction]

@@GoodfordModelRailway ha, or an idiot, it changes daily!

[@going2thedogs]

Well done Richard. Looking good. 👍 Colin.

[@NewJunction]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@Jeremiaha284]

Richard, a wipe down with some light bleach water will kill the mold prior to painting.

[@NewJunction]

Top tip

[@TheseTwoRails]

What a upgrade. Looking forward to see what comes next. Is it a temperature controlled space? I’d be worried about the wood flexing if not. Unrelated question, do you plan to grab a railroad 80x to compare to the full model? Tempted to get either the Azuma one as a WCML visitor or a GWR one to model the Euston diversions but don’t feel like spending on the full detail models for a out of location model (at least not yet 😅).

[@presidentxd]

Ya be giving Simon George a run for his money.

[@ZalMoxis]

Great find…. Hope it turns out as planned.

[@NewJunction]

I hope so too

[@thenorthproject8465]

Hehe, looking good, onward and upwards, or alongwards in the literal sense 😁😁

[@NewJunction]

Did you spot yourself? 😆

[@JordysRailVideos]

Congrats Richard from the LRLA (aka the Lancaster Rail Loop Authority which is the name of my layout)

[@NewJunction]

Thanks! ❤

[@timothyp8947]

Wondered if the 'exhibition mode' topology would be pure oval or more dumbbell in shape… certainly the idea of avoiding having to duck under a layout has some appeal to me as I near the end of my 6th decade, but I guess to some extent it’d depend on how expansive your planned fiddle yard is.

[@howardavins1107]

Well done. Huge move. Look forward to future sessions. Is it Close to home and secure.? Next thing, kettle and microwave! Thanks for your interesting offerings. Howard

[@NewJunction]

Kettle, is on the list! Touch wood, more secure than the garage

[@donstratton6343]

No more scraping ice of your car windscreen now, either! Congratulations.

[@NewJunction]

You got that right!

[@thescrapline4905]

One day, I'll have to pop over for another visit. 😊 I might still have an engine or 2 to run 😅 Good to see it in its full exhibition mode at last.

[@NewJunction]

I've got some walls if you need a job... 😅❤

[@thescrapline4905]

@NewJunction perfect! I've forgotten what's involved in model railways anyway, it's been too long 🤣

[@NewJunction]

@@thescrapline4905 like riding a bike!

[@philipstokes2824]

A truly impressive vision now hopefully realised, the only question now is will you also have q layout at home!?

[@NewJunction]

I do have a previously unseen layout in my spare room... 🤪

[@jeffreyglenhamrick926]

Congratulations from a USa fan

[@NewJunction]

Many thanks!

[@paulwilson834]

congratulations on the move. really looking forward to seeing the growth of the model railway, I was wondering was it easy to get a unit to move into and are the units in that size really expensive? thank you for another great video,

[@NewJunction]

@@paulwilson834 they're certainly not cheap, but many clubs and exhibition layout owners do the same. Decided to give it ago and see how I get on. 😆

[@hellooohowareudoing]

Bold move! Personally I don't think I could motivate myself to travel any distance to take part in a hobby lol, but the space is definitely an advantage!

[@NewJunction]

Haha luckily the unit is very close

[@JamesPetts]

Interesting! Where did you find this space? How secure is the tenure?

[@shed66215]

Think most of us would love to be a position to have that much room to have a layout - sadly while I have a collection of stock (which seems to keep growing of its own free will) no room to even contemplate a layout - may be possible if I didn't have other interests to occupy me. Watching you move your layout, do you have info on Richard of Everard Junction? Must be nearly ten months since he said he was going to have to break up his then layout to move/rebuild it.

[@NewJunction]

Hes moved house and is currently renovating 😊

[@vodkasrups]

cheeky 2nd layout back in the garage ?🤣

[@NewJunction]

Ha nooooo

[@dpin6072]

You know, you have a lot of unused space in that new location. Have you considered when further along on your existing layout adding a good size staging yard and doing some train building/switching? Wouldn’t necessarily have to finish this switching yard, just sounds fun to operate.

[@JamesPetts]

Or you could build another layout: variety is the spice of life!

[@danielbrooks3452]

Have you bought the unit or renting it. And dont mind me asking what does something like this cost

[@NewJunction]

Renting so I can always return home. 😊 the cost is considered but the advantages are many! ❤

[@danielbrooks3452]

so will there be another project for the garage in future or are you just concentrating on this one for now

[@NewJunction]

@@danielbrooks3452 nooo New Junction is enough aha

[@Chauglington_Station]

Nice idea but must cost a fortune 😳

[@NewJunction]

It was a very lucky find 😊

[@Chauglington_Station]

@@NewJunction good luck with it! Looks fantastic 😀

[@NewJunction]

@@Chauglington_Station thanks!

[@malcolm6951]

Looking good. For a return have you considered a helix at each end rather than a return against the wall?

[@mickeybarrass3625]

The new space will probably be invaluable. You may have to put a wood damp proof paint on that wood before you paint it. Nice heater and a kettle will be essential Richard. Accurascales new test track? Good luck with the move, what a space to have. Enjoy.

[@adamglaskin6329]

Congratulations on the new place! The layout looks great in there. It's so big it echos so maybe some rugs or carpets will soften the sound a bit, not to mention being easier on your feet of course. I'm interested to know what you'll do with your garage space now! Perhaps a future N Gauge project! 😉 Nudge nudge! good luck with the progress!

[@colser71]

Yikes, that, despite the mountain of work you have left, looks stunning. Well done. Looks stunning. Can't wait for the next episode, and the subsequent episodes. 🚂🚆🚊

[@NewJunction]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@PeterPete]

Will you offer places for your local subscribers to come and help you with your layout? You could turn it into a social/community thing 👍

[@NewJunction]

It's a hard one to manage as that would mean giving out the address to faceless names. 😅 I'll sort something for Patreons mind. 😊

[@PeterPete]

@NewJunction I think you should. You could get patreons to build you buildings or other features on the layout! You could even organise open days for patreons!!

[@NewJunction]

​@PeterPete that's totally happening, this wouldn't be possible without them! 😊
