OK so I finally finished my 'binge watch' - what am I going to do now? I feel I have learnt a lot; the subtle use of shades of grey, the glory of the finer shades of rust, and the joy of well laid static grass for starters. More seriously, that attention to detail, "god is in the details" certainly applies here. You have made glorious use of the ordinary things in life, rail-side clutter, building sites, caravan parks, re-animating disused station buildings; there is a signal box nearby I have been watching, sadly, as it falls further into decay - one day it will just disappear no doubt. But you are also able to breathe a subtle sense of humour into things - I hesitate to mention the Weasley car, the way certain people/passengers move around, the time-slipping Mr Portillo on the platforms of Dean Park. And of course the fact that you are only halfway(?) through the build, we will all be watching to see what happens next - for years - hurrah!!! And that is without even mentioning your educational, and analytic, reviews of trains and products, excursions off-site to shows and other layouts, interviews and real trainspotting. Thanks you so much Dave, and "Floreat Dean Park"…

The level of detail is phenomenal, what sets it all apart is the realism, the track look and 'wear and tear' etc is the best I've ever seen. On the camera you cannot tell it apart from the real thing. A lot of people pack in detail but never finish it off 100%, always looks a bit rough round the edges when examined closely, no hint of that here, your eye never stops looking around for the next gem to see.

I used to watch the trains down at Hendon in the late 70’s, early 80”s, so a little bit earlier than the period you’re modelling, it was pure BR back then ... a lot of 45’s and 47’s with the odd unexpected visitor ... I was also a modeller back then in my teens ... your layout is simply amazing !! Brilliant !! I congratulate your achievement. 🙏

But there seems to be enough products for this miniture scale.

Hi Dave, That was just superb ! Loved every minute of that video, so well put together. Your attention to detail is amazing and quality of workmanship very impressive. The resulting effect is a very convincing railway in miniature with s strong Scottish flavour ! I particularly love the Lothian Mk1 Leyland National ! I once owned one that I bought from Lothian, when I came to Edinburgh to view it, prior to purchasing it, it looked just like the model on your layout. It was VKE 566S, can’t remember the fleet number Lothian gave it, though 137 springs to mind. Well done on your railway, and thanks for the video tour, I really enjoyed watching it.

@DeanPark
4 жыл бұрын
Lucas Junction hi. I find that the best couplers for propelling are the wide tension lock ones found on most Hornby mk3! The wide slightly curved design allows the bogies to move freely as the coaches go around a curve! However these are no longer produced (Hornby updated this coach to roco close couplers) they work well being pushed. Not tried kadee in a push formation. I did a video on the Oxford Mk3a in scotrail where I think I covered different couplers the Oxford coaches aren’t great At being pushed as their coupler mechanism sags and can dismantle itself!!

Then I look at a photo or see it for myself at the line side to get an idea of what other details go there. I then make a wee list, Such as cable trunking, speed signs, old rails, sleepers etc. I then try to work them all into that area. I get a lot of my detailing parts from scale model scenery, York model making, or sometimes Bachmann accessories, figures etc. cheers Dave

Such an amazing layout and avid follower! Excited to see any new videos posted haha! I’m just about to get started on my first ever layout (go big or go home so a full loft layout is the plan) and nearly all my questions have answers however do you use all peco track on your layout? And what code track do you use?
@DeanPark

Kristoffer Cummings hi cheers. I use peco streamline code 100. Its durable for the loft and while code 75 looks more prototypical, it’s more fragile.

Constantly amazed by the care and work that you put into your modelling Dave. Just two mysteries: the road over the level crossing doesn't appear to go anywhere and I'm surprised that, with your attention to such fine detail, there are no passengers or lights in the coaches. It's still a work art though!!!! Look forward to the next video. Thanks.

Fantastic update Dave. With the station lighting back in the 90s most lighting was of the old orange type however I cannot seem to find any website that sell orange lights for stations and streets as all streetlights appear to be white. Any ideas.

South to North tamiya clear yellow paint! Paint it on the light lens and it turns them into a orange/yellow effect... I’ve done it with my depot shed lights :-)

It’s an amazing project Dave, it must be quite daunting to someone just starting out. The juxtaposition between this and their own little layout. If you ever want any souvenirs let me know mate.

Great tour! Nothing short of outstanding. How on earth do you manage to keep such a large layout dust free? I could not see any dust anywhere especially where it would be noticed on the platforms. Any tips?

Justin Semmens Hi. Thank you so much. Ok dust free. Well I’m sure there is dust lol, but I like to take a one inch soft paint brush and dust it... while at the same time using the nozzle /brush attachment from the dyson to suck up the dust.. you’ll never get it all but a little clean now and again keeps its clean. As for the trains... I dust these with a small puffer brush (which you use to clean the lens on a camera. So it’s soft and won’t damage the trains) Hope that helps.
