The date on the stone on the bridge is 1893. I remember that from when I went to boarding school just outside Wincanton!!

The biggest model railway in Britain, nice work,if it was mine I would be very very tempted to have a couple of vandals hanging from a strategically placed gibbet, It would add a little joy in the hearts of many in a winter landscape

You most certainly did get the right colour, lengths and styles of grass that you have used. You’ve done a most accurate job of creating winter grass!! Well done, Simon George!!

Many many thanks for coming down for two days and making Oak Road’s attendance at the Virtual Great Electric Train Show possible. To be in the spot light with so many other fantastic layouts was quite an honour.

The pleasure was all ours Mike, looking forward to the other bits ;)

Mike's passion for his layout Oak Road was amazing, made an immediate donation to his charity Meningitis Now and I hope others felt the same!

Brilliant to see these features shown in so much detail. I had the opportunity to drive the EQS SUV at a recent MB event and using the 'intelligent recuperation' brings most of these systems together nicely - slightly unnerving at first, but totally amazing to see it in action.

This was absolutely great. Thanks so much for putting this together, every single section was brilliant. Me and my dad spent this Sunday afternoon watching. Please do something like this again chaps! Good work :)

I LOVE that Australia Is dominating with the rode Mics they are really one of the best bang for the BUCK mics brilliant video Better than no show at all in 2020

What a cool layout!! It reminded me of the Sundays out I had with my late parents when I was at boarding school just outside Wincanton. I will certainly be giving its owner a decent donation for the Meningitis Trust. It’s a very important organisation to support.

Really enjoyed the video. Especially liked how all the guests were just left to present their layouts and talk about their passion without prompting or interruption

55.17 to 56.00 he's bang on, I'm kinda taking a similar approach as I do buildings, etc around my own layout cos looking around my own town and pics of my inspiration then no nothing matches and has often been changed many times.

Great video like the detail.thanks very much.

For someone like myself from Australia, this was an awesome video with heaps of great content. I'm in love with how the hush hush locomotive's are looking. Some great layouts to watch here. Think I will be watching this more than once. The progress of that P2 is amazing. Really great work and thanks for uploading this video and sharing, Clint

Loved watching this! An absolute pleasure! Best hobby in the world!

I think every rail fan from leeds Bradford are at some point came to Morley spotting I used to go with my grandad every weekend after picking supplies up from blackgates engineering go home and build more parts for his locomotives god it brings back memories brilliant

I'm an electrician, who has spent the last 20yrs working in quarry's around Britain and in 'near' Europe, and you wouldn't believe how many buildings are squashed in, in between the local 'main' road, and the ex faces of workings. Where new plant is introduced into the old space, so new workings can be introduced without being in the way of the new site/faces. So, you're CLOSER than you think, when it comes to squashing in the crusher, screen house and lorry/rail loadouts into small spaces.!🧐😂!.

I love Oak Road - followed it for ages on RMWeb and always impressed with Mike’s modelling. He also seems like a genuinely nice chap!

Realy good show here with plenty of new stock and great layout builds too👍👌 Many thanks banks road..

Really nice layouts and good to see small businesses being advertised especially in these difficult times. The most amazing part of the hobby is that no two layouts are the same and the creator is free to do whatever her/she feels is best to create their own little world. I love to hear what other people think of my layout and accept any constructive criticism as sometimes I'm unsure if what I've created is how it should look. I'd love to showcase Ewood so people can see it in the flesh but sadly although it does come apart it would be near on impossible to transport.

Great work. Really enjoyable, a couple of hours well spent. Thanks

could you imagine how large Heaton Lodge Junction would be if it was the new TT:120 scale would be insane. Its a amazing layout !!

Very enjoyable - thank you. Favourite part - it is a railway enthusiasts promotion (it could have easily been a Hornby product promotion). I admire Hornby Magazine's sincerity and confidence in producing this.

WOW guys!! What a great weekend of entertainment. Great interviews, layouts and 'how to's'. The only thing missing was the meeting up live with friends and maybe the purchase of a few bargains that can be had as SHOW SPECIALS at a live event. Maybe if this is repeated some traders could offer something through a code if bought during the duration of the event, just a thought. I think the quarry on Topsy looks fab. Big thanks to everyone that made the show possible, stay safe and well everyone and catch you soon, regards Bobby 'T'.

The road’s been dug up 20 times? More like 50-100 times!! The main road in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire is undergoing yet more unnecessary roadworks!! That’s the third time this year!!

I absolutely loved it, I even learned a few new things along the way, including the modifications done to the p2 design!
