Being very familiar with the old and former station at Newcastle, I'm impressed by scope and accuracy of the depiction in the 1890's. It looks as through it's still a work-in-progress with space to depict the old loco-sheds and workshops.

Thanks for sharing your great video Will , for people like me who can't make it to this exhibition as we live so far away ( in W.A. ) - it's great that people like you are able to share your views so that people like us can see what was on show ; the annual Perth model railway exhibition is held over the June long weekend ( which is usually the 1st weekend of June ) by A.M.R.A. W.A. at the Claremont showgrounds ; It'd be great to see you there someday if you can make it along.

I absolutely loved that multi-themed layout at the beginning of the video. Something like that is something I would like to do with my own model railway I want to build since my collection is a mix and match of USA and UK (I wish I could add Australian trains to that roster but Australian trains really aren't readily available here in the USA sadly). So seeing someone else execute a similar idea and so well done is really motivating.

Revisiting this one because I recently caught onto something particular about that Generic Layout from the Coff's Coast modelers. Having watched several other videos of it, I'm noticing a pattern. Clearly one of the guys in that group is a fan of the Santa Fe Railway because almost every one of those videos I watched showed a Santa Fe train. In this video alone I saw three, two active one idle. I know I can get behind that, the Santa Fe is my favorite American railway hands down, with Union Pacific in a very close second place. There's just something about Santa Fe's red/silver or blue/yellow "Warbonnet" livery that really does it for me.

Will, I think the Generic HO Scale first appeared a number of years ago at Whitlam Centre Liverpool NSW by Coffs Harbour Modellers. I think they sold that layout some time back. They had a custom built van to transport the layout. Newcastle in N scale is exquisite.

Hello Iain. Thanks for the feedback, I get very few comments regarding the music. I feel I do have to keep it as other wise it’s a lot of dead air with people talking behind the camera. If I do start to receive a majority of messages calling for now more music I’ll reconsider producing them in they way/at all! Thanks again Will
