+Willowfs4472 No problem mate. I am pleased that you enjoyed the video albeit if its a long one :). I shall be going this year's event as well as Peterborough is only a 50 minute train ride from London and there is usually a direct free bus shuttle from the railway station to the concourse where the model railway exhibition is held annually.Ash.
Thanks buddy. Its a great show and to be honest, I prefer this show over Warley as the one at the NEC drives me nuts with all those rolling roadblocks :).Ash.
I was there with my wife on the Sunday afternoon Ash and we both thoroughly
enjoyed ourselves, some great layouts as you have depicted and some very
good stalls, glad we went although I did end up spending a little more than
I had anticipated!! ...............Graham
Hello Graham,Its certainly a great show and a lot less stressful than some of the other shows that I used to go to. I can actually see the layouts with no roadblocks in the way ;). I bought a model of an Amtrak SDP40F from Mehano (it looks similar to Athearn FP45). I shall be reviewing it along with a couple of other gems that I have bought since the last wave of model train videos that I did back in June this year. Although I shall cover these after my planned trip for more on board bus and train filming as I like to make transport ride videos :). I am waiting patiently for the Hornby Class 56 in Colas Rail livery to come out and also I want the Coal Sector Class 60 that is 60090 which I will buy some HEA hopper wagons to match it as per the 1990's :).Ash.
Hello Robert,Thanks for the positive comment. I really did enjoy the show that day as I was there on the 18th. Its more relaxed and less stressful than some of the other shows that I have been to in the past. To answer your question, you would need to buy a Bachmann Class 170 in any livery and have it resprayed into the One Greater Anglia livery. I would recommend having a word with R3sprays in Falkirk as they have done some fantastic liveries on many locomotives.Ash.
nice to see our layout Turners Folly on YouTube hope those who attend the
show liked it future plans to make it wider for next year first showing at
Brighton Model world nice video
That was one of my favourite OO scale model railway exhibits at the show this year. I was talking to the chap with Ipad controller and if the club is open to suggestions of future trains to consider adding to their fleet. I would highly recommend investing in a Hornby Class 60 and a rake of about 20 of those Bachmann TEA 100-tonne tanker wagons to go behind it as it would fit in nicely with the layout. Something like a EWS/DB Schenker or a Transrail Class 60 would match the Class 395 Javelin but any Hornby Class 60 would be a nice addition. Just out of curiosity, does the club have a website and also can members join the club? Or is it something like a private closed club that is run amongst friends? As if new members are needed, I might be interested in joining in the future. Thanks for commenting and keep up the great work with the layout :).Best RegardsAsh.
Very plaisant video, many thanks for sharing.
In 25 and 26 Otober, there is also an Model Raiway Exhibition near my
village, and i think that i go to realize a vidéo.
Soon, Gérard.
Thank you Gérard, This is a great show to attend if you wanted to see it as there is a free bus service from Peterborough Railway Station that goes to the event every year. I will be going again in 2015 as I really enjoyed myself at the show :). I am happy that you enjoyed the video :).Best RegardsAsh.
Hello Dave,Sorry about that mate :). I have added the timings in the description as to make it easier to digest the video for those that are in limited in time. But it was a cracking event though none the less and you can see the layouts without the roadblocks getting in the way. Daleside Parkway was my favourite as well buddy as its very impressive considering its in N gauge :).Ash.
