Lovely video. The commentary really adds something. Thank you for the nice comments regarding Devonmoor. We loved being there for the weekend. We have a very simple modular system and very few rules, but it shows what can be done when you all work together. The group has been amazing to me since I joined last year and I would fully recommend that anyone getting into the hobby looks out for their local groups , modular or not. The group expertise, encouragement and friendship really is something special. If you see us again it will be a totally different layout, we have so many modules now that we have nowhere to put them all together at the same time, and plenty more being planned and built. Making Tracks have given us an idea though.... Exeter Cathedral anyone!!

Gresty Road and Devonmoor were my favourite layouts at the show - thanks for featuring them!
@WesternSignalman2 ай бұрын
Gresty road was great but the camera didn’t like it as it was a bit too dark for it but at least I did manage to capture some of it.

As always, James, best coverage of a model railway show on KZbin by 80 chains, with nicely shot and well edited video, interesting and entertaining commentary (which makes all the difference btw), plus background sound. Also sounds like you're doing a good job of convincing yourself that you need an O gauge layout 😉

Many thanks for another of your excellent show digests. ‘Devonmoor’ looks excellent, starting with a pretty faithful rendition of Lynton station, complete with bungalow. I’m aiming to do my own version of this layout extract. The layout recreating the Westbury junction looked great but was disturbing from an operational and signalling perspective!

I think there was a few operational issues when we came to watch. I was wondering if anyone would spot what was wrong in the first clip 😆

As always a well made and spoken in video. I always enjoy the comments you make. My personal favorite one "Millsbridge". Lot of post war to modern scenery, some continental stuff, not immediately my interest, but still nice the result of well build layouts. Thanks for the lovely video, enjoyed it as always…
@WesternSignalman2 ай бұрын
Thanks Danny, I agree continental is not to everyone’s tastes but I think it is good to appreciate the modelling, my boy wants his layout to be in the snow so the Swiss layout was great to see to get some inspiration

@@WesternSignalman Tell the boy that Scotland and Wales also have big snow falls😂 Well I'm the opposite of the continental modelers, I live in Belgium and I only collect British rolling stock😅, it seems I live on the wrong side of the pond.😉 I'm working on a small highland scene at the moment (in late summer) Of corse it's nice to see all the variations in the hobby, it would be boring if everybody did the same.
