Thanks to the commenters and folk that share these on, theyāre intended as light hearted entertainment, some are absolute crackers some a bit more serious. I love the model railways, I love filming them going about their business and I love chatting about them. No one in my house is interested in listening to me chat about them, hence I chat to you guys. Feel free to ask any questions.
The intention of this channel is to come at a different angle from the usual and do my own thing which may or may not be everyoneās cup of tea.
It gets me some peace up here in the loft though so Iāll keep it going. I only have a small fleet as theyāre all the new sound fitted models and itās a new hobby so donāt expect a different loco in each video. Hope you like this one, cheers! Dave

Hi Dave , yes I still here right to the end. As Charlie at Chadwick Railways said, ' It's your layout ,you do what pleases you. I think they look great. I have watch some video's of full size trains and they have dirty ones with clean ones in trains.
-
First time viewer just subscribed, looking forward to following your layout
-
Good man Dave, great update. As Roger Rabbit says "To infinity and beyond". All the best. Ian

I have just returned from a weekās holiday in Yorkshire and had my breakfast watching this video. There is something really delightful about watching your layout and listening to your āwaffling onā. It has been a great start to my day. You have done some fabulous work with weathering those wagons, they do look great. Having created this amazing layout with all the detail I am not sure that you can keep saying you are new to railway modelling! Thanks for another top video. Keep up the good work. And please keep that class 66!

Very informative video Dave all I can say thank goodness I don't dabble in DCC but I too has a Accurrascale Class 50 on order and class 57xx looking forward to when they arrive
-
weathered wagons look fantastic mate. Some are indistinguishable from the real thing. A bit like mine really š
-
Some great footage Dave,
-
Those MGR wagons look superb all weathered up. š
-
I always look forward to seeing a new video from you in my new to watch list. You are my favourite train related channel as your spin on the story is second to none & you really bring the layout to life. It inspires me to get my layout finished so I could think up something along the same lines but probably butcher it.
-
The wagons look first class.š
-
Axel secret agent weather-er-er Foley strikes again, wagons look fantastic mate. Very well done!
-
You can always get a Bachmann 31 i guess, almost always reliable. The weathering on the HBAs looks fantastic btw
-
You should be really pleased with your weathering on those wagons ! I will not use those decoders after having lots of issues with the ones I had. All changed to Zimo now which are, in my opinion, far superior.
-
Sounds as though you were doing an auto calibration of the motor control (back emf). That the procedure from ESU Loksound 5s. Good weathering of those MGRs
-
Something I bought, think the Rapido APT-E has a description of this in the instructions and the same cure you described, seems it is something those chips do. I have not had it happen to any of my locos though.
-
Don't you dare get rid of the 66. It is a beaut and I don't care whethet it goes with your layout or not it looks special.
-
Them MGRs look bostinā DOD! Iām impressedš if you start looking at photos of the real wagons there really is no right or wrong, I havenāt tried adding the horizontal scratch marks on any yet, you know the ones where the doofers rub along themā¦.proper nice work. Here at Colwich I havenāt been in the loft for weeks, every time I go up there Iāve been sweating cobs, so much in fact Iāve been selling them on via the back door to Annieās cafe, makes for an interesting flavoured bacon and egg sandwich!š¤¢ Iām with you on the buying locos & then thinking do I really need/want themā¦. The Accurascale 66s are cracking models, I had the most unglamorous DRS version on pre-order & it really runs/sounds great, then when āEvening Starā became available I had to have oneā¦ā¦., now Iām not so sure, yeah it fits my layout, but Iām not the biggest fan of the real things. Probably gonna sell it on now. I think we as modellers are like magpies, something shiny & new comes out and we have to have it! Any way Iām rambling now, Iām off to drop off some more cobs at Annieās back doorā¦.šŖ š® Cheers John bš

There are at least 6 class 31s that can be ordered right now on the Accurascale website - at BR blue. I'm getting the NRM special edition. I cancelled my direct Accurascale order.
