I was there on that day, hope I find myself in some of the shots!

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

I tend to focus on the layouts mostly but you never know. Thanks for watching 😃

Hunh. An Oliver with Stephny-colours. Cool :)

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

It’s actually an LBSCR D3 which is a bit bigger and heavier than a 14xx (Oliver). Thanks for watching 😃

It’s always a good show to go to, getting to use the real trains to travel to different parts of the exhibition is good fun! Thanks for watching 😃

Always great to see model trains running, great track into the station so realisiic

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

Definitely! With my own layout currently in pieces while I work on the scenics it’s been good to just film some trains running again. Thanks for watching 😃

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

Thanks, it was good fun to put together. Thanks for watching 😃

[@PaulinesPastimes]

Excellent video. The layouts were beautiful and I got a couple of ideas for myself into the bargain. 😊

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

Awesome, glad it's given you some ideas! Thanks for watching 😃

[@adam_fordham]

Really good layouts there, I really liked the war layout, amazing detail 😀

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

Yes there was loads to see on that layout! Thanks for watching 😃

[@tagsdm]

Beautiful, That Model Railway Guy. Though the focus was on the models, your prototype pics are great. 80151 has been a fav for years, they sure have some lovely coaching stock, too. And don't stand too close to Camelot when she's clearing her cylinders!! Many thanks.

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

It's definitely nice to have the real railway running alongside the models! Thanks for watching 😃

[@railwayjade]

I love the wartime diorama

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

Yeah I’ve seen quite a few WW1 009 layouts lately - does seem to be a bit of a trend at the moment and makes for something different. Thanks for watching 😃

[@OOmodels]

I went there yesterday and I had the hst set if you saw me

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

Awesome, hope you had a good day! Thanks for watching 😃

[@KenCreswick]

Thanks for the upload MRG. Recently found your channel and subscribed. You do really nice video work but if I can make a couple of observations? I'm not a fan of background music in model railway show videos, don't think it adds anything, you don't have music blaring out at the real thing! As you have 23k plus subscribers I accept I might be in the minority here 😅. Secondly it would be helpful if you could either caption the layouts name or show it's name board please. The layout builders should at least have their hard work identified so nosey buggers like me could search for other videos of their layouts! Cheers.

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

Every so often I get a comment like this - although usually less polite than yours 😅 Basically the videos with music on tend to perform much better with more people watching for a longer. Additionally, I also tend to capture the conversations of those around me who I don't feel fully comfortable with broadcasting on the internet, along with screaming kids and those being less than complimentary about the layouts. Having the music allows me to mask that or in extreme circumstances remove things entirely. As for crediting the layouts, due to the quick turn around on these it's not possible to include it in the video itself but all the names of the layouts are listed in the description in order of appearance. Hope that helps and thanks for watching 👍

Wish I was there but too far for me I live in Manchester so

[@ThatModelRailwayGuy]

No worries, now you can get a little taste of the event and see all the layouts in action! Thanks for watching 😃

One of our crew on OO Live Steam Roadshow was from near Manchester, and drove all the way home afterwards!!!!!
