This is wonderful. In the early to mid eighties I commuted Queen Street to Falkirk. Class 47 push pull to Falkirk High or the 3 set class 101 to Grahamston. I remember passing through the Eastfield section back in the day when we'd look out the windows (still do). This captures the whole feel. Memories of times gone by. Thank you. ❤

This is just outstanding👏👏 My grans old house (on Crowhill street, Parkhouse) in the 80s used to overlook the Eastfield depot, we werre literally 70 meters from it and the looks and sounds of the diesels were fascinating and would hear them throught the day and night. Seeing old footage of Eastfield lately and now finding this gem it just fills me with nostalgia and happy memories. Amazing job on this exquisite recreation 👌

Love this set up favourite locos are the class 37's this period in my opinion is the best love seeing the class 37's now days chugging along the lines. Been watching these model 🚆trains on KZitem now for li like 6 months + and as soon as possible when I have the funds i am going to try and have a go at building a little shunting pay out not had a model train in my hands for over 40 years so I'm going to have a crack at it I have a local dealer so hopefully will be able to get some advice where i will get stuck. Thanks for the inspiration this set up has finally got me to make up my mind about building one thanks again.

Good God 😮 Is this for real?! Words fail me. I used to live beside the mainline near Bishopbriggs station so Eastfield was a major fascination growing up there and travelling into Glasgow. The attention to detail is crazy - can even pick out my friend’s old flat on Carron Place modelled here. Wow! The noise of the Class 37 at 11:00 also stirs up lots of memories. There used to be lone loco, assuming it was a Class 37 that would pass through Bishopbriggs around midnight in the 80s and 90s. In the silence of the hour you could hear it well before it was anywhere near, that noise reverberating off the walls of the cutting. It’s a sound that I’ll never tire of hearing. Need to get along to see and hear this in ‘24. Thank you!

Hi Robert, in the previous update Eastfield video there is a few segments of video that show the mk1's with retro fitted corridor bellows. I have asked the question and I do believe that when the layout is finished and at the shows it is intended to have the corridors connected. Hope this helps

Hi @Graham Preston. I have passed your comment over to Mick and it would appear to be the wrong era for when the layout is set and I don't believe there are any ready to run 27's in O-gauge yet. Hopefully Mick will see this thread and answer your question in more detail. Thank you for getting in touch. Cheers

Love a 37 but why were there no 26 27 40 47 etc running. For exhibitions hopefully there will be some variety of motive power. Also iconic to the period were the push pulls with 47/7s and I dont see any of these.
@AidansRailways

As stated in the episode the layout is still under construction. A work in progress if you like. Some classes of motive power have yet to be manufactured, some need they're sound chips fitted, some have to undergo numbering and weathering etc etc etc. When I arrange a session to film and get a update I am usually at the mercy of what is available at that specific time. I can assure you though that there are a huge selection of motive power with more to come before it appears at the shows. I do believe the push pull sets will also be there. During the earlier episode an example of the motive power was displayed around the depot. If you have not seen that episode it might be worth checking that out. Cheers
