North East Model Railway (Trenholme Junction)

This film is a hybrid, using a mixture of previously used scenes, unused scenes from the original filming and new scenes shot recently.

All the original scenes have been re-edited from their original production version, which was in letterbox format, to full screen. All the original and new scenes now have a real sky video as a background.

This film is part of an ongoing series which is exploiting the 'Infinite Layout' principle where the films can made and remade using different scenes (some which are not physically joined together).

For more information see the links in video notes (on YouTube).

A Hymek approaches the Main Station from the tunnel at the south end of the junction and pauses in the station avoidance road to allow a suburban passenger train to enter the station. The Hymek than sets off to the north end of the junction and comes to a halt in the reception departure road of the Main Marshalling Yard.

A Super D arrives from the shed and picks up a train of mixed goods wagons heads off to destinations unknown.

The Hymek pulls its train onto the headshunt and reverses into one of the sidings.

In this film the BR Standard Class 73082 arrives at the Main Station from the south of Trenholme Junction with a short Parcels Train. After stopping, the locomotive uncouples from its train and moves forward and into the loop to make way for more vans to be added.

A short journey from the Main Station to the Lower East Station standing looking over the drivers' shoulder.

The video is made using a mask from a photograph from the inside of a class 101 Diesel Multiple Unit over the video recorded on the model railway. The background of the model has been keyed out and and a video of a cloudy sky forms the view from the windscreen.

Filmed in 4k with a Gopro Session 5 camera and produced in Magix Vegas 16 Pro software using Vegas Bezier Masking, Vegas Masking, NewBlueFX Chroma Key Pro.

A tricky composite, not so easy key a camera when its moving .....

The photograph by kind permission of barry13092 of Flickr fame.

Hauling a train of tanker wagons Class 31 D5512 descends the long incline to the south end of Trenholme Junction, passing the south carriage sidings and then passes a Black 5 on a long empty mineral train movement at the south signal box at the Main Station.

The train then rounds the north curve of the junction and arrives at journeys end in the reception / departure road of the Lower Marshalling Yard.

A Black 5 with its bulk grain train emerges from the north tunnel at Trenholme Junction, passing the Diesel Motive Power Depot and eases onto the avoidance road at the Main Station. Whilst the Black 5 awaits the road to proceed, the 08 Shunter moves forward, also awaiting a road.

A Hymek with a train of bogie well wagons gently rolls past and off to the south of the junction on the down goods line. The Black 5 than moves off, again, to the south of the junction.

The passing of both of these trains is seen through the open door of the signal box.

A Class 20 hauls a mixed goods transfer freight from the Upper Marshalling Yard en route for the Lower Marshalling Yard where the train is uncoupled in the reception/dispatch road.

In the meantime, a two car Diesel Multiple Unit arrives from the south and pauses at the Lower East Station, whilst the locomotive and brake van head off and leave by the southern end of Trenholme Junction. Finally, the passenger service heads north towards Main station.

When joining two videos together (the model and the background in this case), getting a clean join is quite difficult to achieve to make it convincing. This video is a practice, using a different technique from previous attempts. I think this works quite well, especially around bushes and trees.

Its another bright and sunny day at Trenholme Junction and the Class 08 Shunter is on Station Pilot duties, taking a pair of parcels vans from the storage road at the North Bay of Main Station and placing them in the platform for loading.

The remainder of the parcels arrives shortly afterwards behind a Class 25 locomotive and couples up to the pair, ready for departure.

All the action in this film takes place around the South Bay platforms on the Main Station at Trenholme junction. A two car Diesel Multiple arrives in the passenger platform. Standard Class 4MT Tank 80061 eases forward onto empty stock from a recent arrival and removes the coaches from the station. Another Standard Class 4MT Tank 80097 leaves from the bay run round road followed by the arrival of a Black 5 44668 with parcels stock and then leaves to head south. A Class 47 drifts through the main platform road with a through passenger train. D8158 Class 20 with tankers passes through the parcels platform and into the tunnel. 5601 Tank follows, slowly passing through the same platform with a short goods train and follows the tankers through the tunnel. Finally, D1 Scaffell Pike hurries through light engine.

'To be able to take positions on the layout and see a train approaching but because it was far enough away it was not possible to recognise what it was until it got closer, as in real life.'
This is a quote from the article published in the blog accompanying this channel.
It is one of the design parameters of Trenholme Junction.
Distance is one element of the presentation, adding the sky and the background not only adds to the distance illusion but also adds a certain depth.
Many layouts have a static background, the background in this film is a video of the background, merged with the video of the model giving movement in both elements, clouds and trees moving in the wind and trains passing by under the threatening skies.
