That Trans Pennine DMU set looks great

[@minsterley2002]

Thanks Steven

[@David1988Mufc]

I've said it hundreds of times on these videos. This layout is what you show people when somebody says what is a model railway. Absolutely flawless

[@minsterley2002]

Thankyou David, very kind.

[@EtonieE25]

Actually David I’ve said it 1,245 times how brilliant it is 🤣

[@minsterley2002]

Thankyou John.

[@EtonieE25]

Awwwww always the total truth about your fab layout Mr M! 🙂 It’s like u made it especially for film as it works so amazingly with this medium

[@perthsouth5576]

Always love seeing your layout. Looks absolutely wonderful with flawless running. Well done. Hugh.

[@minsterley2002]

Many thanks Hugh.

Wow! Proper dingy 1970's captured in all its glory. Can almost hear the slam doors now. Amazing layout - could watch an hour long running session *hint hint* any day of the week....

[@minsterley2002]

Thank you for the running video. You capture the atmosphere, dingy surroundings and realism so well! One of my top favourite layouts!

Thankyou Dave.

[@jerryallen34]

Wonderful as always. The best BR Blue layout

[@minsterley2002]

Very kind Jerry, thankyou

[@MervynPartin]

Magnificent. Excellent modelling. The weathering and other touches like the wear on the lineside fencing were perfect. One thing that caught my eye was on the Peak awaiting departure form 8:40 on. It really looked like someone was moving inside the cab. It was a while before I realised it was probably only an unintended reflection, but it certainly added to the effect.

[@minsterley2002]

Many thanks Mervyn. Yes when uploading it I noticed the reflection, but hoped it wouldn't detract too much from the video. After looking again, it does look like cab movement, so I'll just claim it as a special effect..lol 😉😉

[@GregPalmer1000]

Another great vid

[@minsterley2002]

Thankyou Greg.

[@James47298]

[@minsterley2002]

Cheers James

[@darrelldeltic807]

Lovely Friday afternoon treat mr Minsterly 😃👍

[@minsterley2002]

Cheers Darrell. Cant beet a bit of BR Blue at this time of year.

[@garyhodge7861]

Between 9:05 and 10:00 it appears there is someone moving in the cab of the 45. Probably just a trick of the light but with your levels of realism maybe not?

[@minsterley2002]

Thankyou Gary. One of my drivers just prepping for departure...lol.😉 Yes, my reflection, which I thought was a slip-up, does give a sense of movement in the cab.

[@milehighclassics]

I thought that was real until I turned the volume up, great work well done, oh, the last shot is magnificent it makes the plastic person look weird, can you make people. I bet you could

[@minsterley2002]

Thankyou Miles. Not tried people yet, but if I get a resin printer will definately give it a go.

[@EtonieE25]

Hey Miles. I watch M’s videos during lunch at work on my i pad ( large image) n peeps c n hear the noises of the locos n ALWAYS ask if I’m a trainspotter, wen l say no it’s a model railway 9 times outta 10 it’s met with absolute total astonishment….that’s how convincingly real it looked to them as Joe Averages

[@smallrails6831]

Wow!!!! First I though it was real life. I have subscribed. Hi from NZ. Bernie

[@minsterley2002]

Thankyou Bernie

[@michaelward2082]

0016 there is a tail lamp on wrong end of the train, sackable offence

[@minsterley2002]

Yes, I fired myself, but was then re-instated as the lamp wasn't lit.😁
