Just thought I’d drop a comment as I’ve been following this layout for ages and thoroughly enjoying seeing the progress both on Facebook and on here every now and then. Really fantastic modelling, makes me want to order some bits and get cracking on my own project to restart some modelling mojo. Hopefully a north west show one day, if not if I can I’ll make the trip north to railex NE.

Keep up the good work

Tom

Or you could come to DEMU Showcase in 2020 :-)

Great work Paul, the forklifts look terrific.

I’m not sure why there is so much cynicism...

How long have you been on this forum!!!!!!  

Surely its not as bad as that?  The program would be reduced to a Portilloesque "journey" meeting colourful locals.  Anyhow, I'll be watching it later today, keeping my eyes open for any former railways.

 

The feet shots will be a clever idea to show that he's "walking"...

No, it’s not as bad as that, I quite enjoyed it, but them I am interested in railways and would watch it even if it was bad. I’m sure C5 are quaking in their boots that a viewer will not watch it again. To be honest it’s not their loss..............

Yet another rehash of an old BBC programme?

 

 

Get some new ideas please programme makers.

Sorry i disagree, dont do enough of these type of programmes, with Paddington, Walking Old railways and Great Model Railway Challenge i think someone on C5 likes trains.

Can always watch Corrie ( its been going for 50 years or so )

Nice one Steve, I’m off on my Railway travels from tomorrow so I’ll get a copy to read.

Next year you could have either of the following:

Or

Might be room for Fried Egg Bridge now Dave............

Hi Paul

 

How are you for operators? I am willing to be the new Mike Fraser.

TWY

Deadmans Lane

Fenchurch St Peter

Towcester to name but a few!!!

Could be worse. At least DL isn't named after a common kitchen appliance

What......a Brent?

We could start a new thread.........A Nod to Deadmans Lane.....

If I have to listen to Mick Bryan one more time pontificating about the glowing posts about his new layout “ Deadpool 2” in the pub I’m going to phone the Samaritans........

 

Fenchurch St Peter has been used by Bedlam George of this parish for his most recent layout

OUR most recent layout.......................

I know there are issues with continuity, this is apparent on most travel/transport related programmes.

There will always be people who moan and state I’m not going to watch anymore of this BUT. I found the programme quite enjoyable and to be honest I’m just glad that there seem to be some railway enthusiasts who seem to have some say in programming on our TV’s.

I’m quite happy to watch Railway/transport shows on TV, you can always switch off if you don't like them.

Great photos Grahame, remember the layouts well.

How’s the new one coming along?

Hello

 

               Fenchurch will be at the East Anglian exhibition at Huntingdon next weekend.

 

                                                                                                  Cheers

So will I hopefully!!

Looking good Steve, George is right it would be good to have us both at the same show. Even better if we were side by side!

For those of us that are old enough I thought the part of the show which was at The Crossroads Motel in Kings Oak was quite a humorous touch, even when the receptionist said “ I need to speak with Mrs T (Amy Turtle)

Bet the murderer turns out to be the weird train spotter

Yes it was and he has the same bloody surname as me,!!!

Anyone watching Endeavour tonight?

Plenty of railway locations, obviously a heritage line but I can’t recognise it.

Cheers

Has anyone ordered the bells from Rails?

I can’t find them anywhere on their website.

Kev,

Progress is looking very good.

And you know where your first exhibtion could be!

Cheers.

Yep, DEMU Showcase, what a great idea Paul.

The Dapol stand at the Alsager show this weekend has a couple of 73s at £100 and O gauge 08s at £150.

Sound fitted Scotrail 68 for £200

Cheers

Mick

And a very nice O Gauge Blue 08 for £150 ( sold to me......... )

Unfortunately made the mistake and ordered one, imagine my surprise when a very small,parcel arrived!!!

BBC Look East tonight, in the same story the train is wagons, carriages and trucks..............
