Nice that you understand that it's a show encompassing all forms of model making. Most of the weathering techniques we use on our train sets have been developed by plastic model builders. We all have so much to learn from other forms of model making.

Re Key Model World show at the NEC. I welcome such a general modelling show albeit with a significant model railway contingent. This is the same model as adopted in Germany for Intermodellbau in Dortmund and the Friedrichshafen show, both of which I have visited more than once in recent years. It’s an excellent way of enabling such large scale shows to survive and thrive. I’m going on Saturday and anticipate the variety to be on show. Bring it on 😄

Hi, great honest video, Dapol have produced some great wagons over the years, what amazes me is the secondhand prices of their older wagons on DreamBay are criminal! They could re-release some of them and make very good money and stop the greedy sellers, I never attended Warley because of the cost to get there, I’m sure there will be other shows that are easier to get to and won’t cost the best part of £50 all in to get there and then get in, 2024 the year of the van wagons, thanks for sharing.

Hi Craig, the club I am a member of,(Elgin Model Railway Club),holds their Modelfair Show every November, and,as well as railways, there is also ships, aircraft,R.C. trucks wargaming etc, because it was realised that in our area, the interest in railways was not that widespread, and our show has been multi -media for many years now, and is very popular, so I think this new show in Birmingham will prove to be successful, anyway, sorry for filling up your comments section, take care, all the best from Scotland,Stephen.

I love the idea of the cheaper Dapol wagons. I do appreciate the level of detail that is now available on models, but I do find them too delicate and as you rightly said, when they’re on the track, you don’t really notice it. I love to improve the appearance of my stock where my level of skill gives me the confidence to do so. I have built a number of the old Airfix/Dapol wagon kits and made them look nearly as good as the more expensive ones. I really enjoy the satisfaction of doing my own thing!

Nah! Got enough vans thank you LOL. Glad to see you talking about the Hi-Lo mix I mentioned in the comments the other day ;-) I am surprised how Dapol can produce reasonable wagons as a great price all made within the UK. Compare these with Hornby's railroad, and these still has huge couplings (Dapol uses NEM sockets) and often tooling dating from the 70s (therefore stretched or deformed). BUT the big point is Dapol's are better, cheaper and made in the UK compared to Hornby's railroad wagons. And I do wonder if Hornby should drop those and make their own cheap new wagons in the UK.... Concerning the new show, I was surprised at how quickly they organized this. It might be too soon just after Warley. I wish them success but maybe there was not enough time to get news to potential visitors. In France we used to have a national modelling exhibition near were I live. And it was great to visit. Now be careful, you may come away wanting to build a garden railway, using radio controlled diggers etc and other civil engineering model pieces, and then add a pond to have decent bridge plus allow you to add some RC boats. And why not turn the garden pathway into an aerodrome for an RC spitfire too....

Love your attitude towards inexpensive Dapol wagons that might encourage folk to try their hand at detailing and weathering. When I look at the price of some premium wagons ranging from £25-£30, it is no surprise some would prefer not to risk 'damaging' them with their own attempts at weathering. Have a nice time at 'KMW Live - Bringing you all the latest from across the scales - Good Morning Birmingham!!!'. Got a bit carried away there with all the excitement. I won't be there myself as I have to save me pennies. If you bump into any Accurascale bros, can you tell them to switch all production to TT:120 immediately. K Thnx Bye.

@@IronHorseRailways Actually, as I was watching your video this morning, it came to me that a series of videos showing just that kind of content would not go amiss. Buy cheap new or secondhand old and then detail and weather them without worry of the cost. LocomotionMotion did just that kind of thing yesterday with a cheap concrete wagon, some glue, some paint and plenty of innuendo.

I don't really see the need to Naysay. Mainly because I'm not a horse 😉 But also, modelling in all its forms has a lot of crossover appeal. Some of the techniques used by, say, military modellers would be fantastic on a model railway and some used by the scale diorama modellers would push detail to levels that would put Pendon to shame. It's all about seeing how other branches of modelling get their enjoyment out of the hobby/hobbies and maybe taking a bit of inspiration from them. As to bans lets not gorget that Dapol also does an undecorated version of their vans so you can paint them in your own livery.

That's scenery and terrain making and kit bashing in common...I just don't get the where the heads of naysayers are at - we should be swapping ideas and inspiration, materials, giving others motivation and fun.

Re Key Model World show at the NEC. I welcome such a general modelling show albeit with a significant model railway contingent. This is the same model as adopted in Germany for Intermodellbau in Dortmund and the Friedrichshafen show, both of which I have visited more than once in recent years. It’s an excellent way of enabling such large scale shows to survive and thrive. I’m going on Saturday and anticipate the variety to be on show. Bring it on 😄

Hi, great honest video, Dapol have produced some great wagons over the years, what amazes me is the secondhand prices of their older wagons on DreamBay are criminal! They could re-release some of them and make very good money and stop the greedy sellers, I never attended Warley because of the cost to get there, I’m sure there will be other shows that are easier to get to and won’t cost the best part of £50 all in to get there and then get in, 2024 the year of the van wagons, thanks for sharing.
I am a big kid too and would love a remote control U Boat that actually dives and would fire dummy torpedoes, be awesome that.sadly I can't make it , but wish them all the best with this new show as sounds like it's going to be amazing, have a great time mate and hope you find that remote control JCB Digger.

I love the idea of the cheaper Dapol wagons. I do appreciate the level of detail that is now available on models, but I do find them too delicate and as you rightly said, when they’re on the track, you don’t really notice it. I love to improve the appearance of my stock where my level of skill gives me the confidence to do so. I have built a number of the old Airfix/Dapol wagon kits and made them look nearly as good as the more expensive ones. I really enjoy the satisfaction of doing my own thing!
Love how you magnetic put magnets into the boxes and that crane, but sadly will miss Warley but one door closes and another one opens, will be interested to see how this Key Model World LIVE performs now. Great video

Nah! Got enough vans thank you LOL. Glad to see you talking about the Hi-Lo mix I mentioned in the comments the other day ;-) I am surprised how Dapol can produce reasonable wagons as a great price all made within the UK. Compare these with Hornby's railroad, and these still has huge couplings (Dapol uses NEM sockets) and often tooling dating from the 70s (therefore stretched or deformed). BUT the big point is Dapol's are better, cheaper and made in the UK compared to Hornby's railroad wagons. And I do wonder if Hornby should drop those and make their own cheap new wagons in the UK.... Concerning the new show, I was surprised at how quickly they organized this. It might be too soon just after Warley. I wish them success but maybe there was not enough time to get news to potential visitors. In France we used to have a national modelling exhibition near were I live. And it was great to visit. Now be careful, you may come away wanting to build a garden railway, using radio controlled diggers etc and other civil engineering model pieces, and then add a pond to have decent bridge plus allow you to add some RC boats. And why not turn the garden pathway into an aerodrome for an RC spitfire too....

Love your attitude towards inexpensive Dapol wagons that might encourage folk to try their hand at detailing and weathering. When I look at the price of some premium wagons ranging from £25-£30, it is no surprise some would prefer not to risk 'damaging' them with their own attempts at weathering. Have a nice time at 'KMW Live - Bringing you all the latest from across the scales - Good Morning Birmingham!!!'. Got a bit carried away there with all the excitement. I won't be there myself as I have to save me pennies. If you bump into any Accurascale bros, can you tell them to switch all production to TT:120 immediately. K Thnx Bye.

Some peoples google-fuu is weak. Warley isn't dead in the slightest. It says on their website that they where going to be running a smaller event in October at the Statfold Barn Railway itself. They also had a stand, again in Statfolds roundhouse, just a few weeks ago announcing the same thing.

I don't really see the need to Naysay. Mainly because I'm not a horse 😉 But also, modelling in all its forms has a lot of crossover appeal. Some of the techniques used by, say, military modellers would be fantastic on a model railway and some used by the scale diorama modellers would push detail to levels that would put Pendon to shame. It's all about seeing how other branches of modelling get their enjoyment out of the hobby/hobbies and maybe taking a bit of inspiration from them. As to bans lets not gorget that Dapol also does an undecorated version of their vans so you can paint them in your own livery.
