Your anecdotal commentary compliments the wonderful models on display perfectly. Thank you for sharing.

Amazing. I remember watching you build a DJH A1 in right track part 1&2. Can't believe you are still building them all these years later. A good testament to the quality of the kit

It’s 05:13hrs. and what a delight to fire up my iPad to see what I would say has to be the ‘Benchmark’ in kit building. Your skill certainly shines through in these various scaled reproductions of these iconic locomotives. I also notice the results of the time and dedication you’ve employed to achieve total reliability in the running of the layout. Thanks for sharing a lifetime passion to achieve excellence in the world of modelling. As the son of a Station Master, I’m just starting my journey at 71 years to replicate one of the many stations he took charge of being chased around the country due to Mr.Richard Beechings’s vision of a better railway infrastructure for the UK……I hold judgement on that!

An absolute pleasure to marvel at. As always, your narration is perfectly pitched with such an adroit use of vocabulary, as I continue on my own heuristic journey in, a sometimes slightly contumacious way. 🙏

So glad to see and hear that you are still building Tony - puts my own, meagre, output to shame. Although I do claim mitigating circumstances. Didn't send me to sleep btw and I'm an insomniac! 😲🤕🤭💜✌️

Always an enjoyment to see your wonderful layout. My maternal grandmother lived at Scrooby and since the age of 5 (so I'm told) used to drag her down to look at trains at the railway crossing. Later I spent 100's of hours in my summer holidays booking them with the help of my Ian Allen spotters book. I've still got it and sometimes check with the expresses you run to see if I've seen them. One of the best sights was seeing the trains picking-up water at the Scrooby troughs, more so if the fireman was a bit slow in winding up the scoop! Great layout Tony from one has seen much of it just a few miles up the line.

Tony, following your 2 part video on the DJH website from a few years ago now, I've started/trying, very badly, to built kit locomotives, coaches, and wagons. I can only marvel at your skill level and attention to detail. Only a few days pass before I get out the old video to watch again, to give me inspiration to carry on and that it will all turn out OK, and this one will be no different I expect. Like you, I was surprised to hear that the 00 gauge kit side of locomotives had been brought by Ellis Clark Trains although as far as I'm aware I've not seen any announcement. Please, more videos of your amazing talent.

Ellis Clark only bought the remaining stock of DJH kits in 4mm scale. Squires Tools have bought all the tooling and moulds etc that DJH used to produce their kits. In time announcements will be made on availability of the kits.

You echo my thought ie have always wanted to build one but all the advice I heard put them in the too hard basket. I need to find some YT videos to see what are the key areas of cricicality. The difference is seeing full metal locos running v plastic body is instantly noticeable.

@paredding Hi, thanks for your reply. I can only suggest watching Tony's video and the Loco builder. The later has long since stopped posting on KZbin. Tony's video is available via the DJH website under loco construction, he makes it look oh so simple. Hope this helps, Lawrence

@@LawrenceDaley-s2u Thanks - am actually watching it now. The initial key is getting the frames square with mirror glass and jigs, ironically I use glass now when building plastic wagon frames. I might look into a kit of a loco not available in RTR. Next step is to see how he does all the connecting rods...
