  1. For those unable to attend NEWGOG 2024 I put together a video showcasing the layouts which were on display which you can find here.
  2. Had a blast at NEWGOG 2024 today! 🚂 Despite being primarily an O Gauge show, there was a fantastic variety of layouts on display. A full video showcasing the layouts which were on display is available here.

  3. Thank you for putting these together, Roger. I am from Pembrokeshire and am planning to one day re-create several of the locomotives which were used in the steam age of Pembrokeshire. Your blog has provided a great resource for Pembrokeshire's railway history for me :)
  4. Thank you to @YT-1300 @33C @Kris for your kind words about my layout. I have made quite a bit of progress since this post. I just wanted to say also to those who were concerned about incline, I went over this in further detail in the video I made of my progress so far. All my locos I intended to run on the incline were tested, with loads as well, and all worked perfectly fine! I would not have committed to this if none of my engines worked on it. I know its not realistic but I have always wanted to make a layout like this with a viaduct in the back. I will hopefully make an update post soon when I find the time!
  5. First time attending the exhibition in Newport. I’m really looking forward to it. Always happy to hear about more Welsh shows
  6. Spent the day at the Pembroke Dock Heritage Centre for the Penfro Modellers Club Annual Show, a great little show as always! We really don’t have many shows in my corner of Wales, so I always like to support them whenever they are on. It wasn’t just model railways on display, but there were several great layouts on show.

  8. Absolutely loved seeing Carterton at the show! Finally getting to see it in person was such a treat. I even managed to capture a bit of it in my recent YouTube video, if you're interested in checking it out. Thank you for bringing it to the exhibition
  9. Just wanted to drop a quick note to say a huge thanks to the organisers for putting together such an awesome event! Had an absolute blast checking out all the layouts. It was very busy and I don't do too well with crowds, but it makes me happy to see our hobby is alive and well. I captured the layouts in a video. If you're interested, you can check it out here:

    Thank you to the organisers of the event! Had an absolute blast at the show. Huge thanks for all your hard work in making it happen. For those who couldn't make it to the show, I made a video showcasing all the amazing layouts at the London Festival of Railway Modelling here:
  11. Just back from the London Festival of Railway Modelling and wow, what a show! Seriously, it was one of the busiest I've ever seen. Had a blast snapping pics and filming every layout I could in the time I had at the event. If you couldn't make it, don't worry, I've got you covered with a long video showcasing all the highlights. If you were unable to attend the event hopefully this video will help you get a good idea of the scale of the event and all the different scales on display!

  12. I had a great time today and just wanted to thank Swindon Model Railway Club, for an incredible exhibition! I recorded as many layouts as I could in the time I had, and if anyone missed the exhibition please feel free to check this out so you can see the layouts that were on display here.
  13. Check out this video featuring the layouts from today's Swindon Model Railway Exhibition for those who missed the event!

    Thank you, Swindon Model Railway Club, for an incredible exhibition! I made a short video capturing as many of the layouts as I could in the time I had while I was there. You can view the video here.
  15. Hello everyone, I'm excited to share that I've begun building my own model railway layout and have started documenting the process on my YouTube channel. You can watch the first video in the series here. As I'm just starting out, I'd really appreciate any advice or tips from the community. Whether it's about track planning, scenery, or anything else related to my layout, your input would be incredibly helpful. Feel free to leave your suggestions in the comments below the video or reply to this post. Thank you all for your support and guidance!
