Still one of the most realistic British model railway layouts: Knaresborough - The Worlds End
Ойын-сауық
This British model railway layout is based on the North Yorkshire market town of Knaresborough, its railway station and surrounding area. The modern image 4mm/ft scale model railway layout has been constructed by Pete Goss. The layout has only a simple branch line theme with trains running through the station on a twin track continuous circuit run. Also featured is the large stone built and ornate viaduct over the River Nidd which is around 5 feet long. The layout was set in the time period around 2005 to 2015, so the rolling stock includes the modern day colourfully liveried DMU’s and several long special model trains.
Modelling this miniature world was for Pete an exciting journey into authentic model building construction that produced an array of architecturally interesting buildings taken from High Street and Market Place in the town centre together with parts of Finkle Street, Kirkgate, Waterside, Riverside and Water Bag Bank. The name “Worlds End” refers to the pub that features at the front of this layout. Knaresborough’s railway station and town scene were already the subject of a video by Pilentum Television. However, this version is digitally remastered with authentic rail sounds and Pilentum’s unique musical melodies.
Have a nice Saint Nicholas Day, and enjoy the Feast of Saint Nicholas with your family!

To all the people commenting that this model is missing litter, graffiti, homeless people, etc - this is a model of Knaresborough, it’s a beautiful, well cared for little town which attracts lots of tourists. It doesn’t look like a busy city centre or some run down industrial area and really does look like this. A superb model

Looks more in the country than a city and we don't have graffiti and peeps on the streets. I think who ever made this is truly amazing wow. I'm not into trains, but love the fairy miniture world idea and think this truly beautiful ❤️

It’s a fantastic layout , one of the best I’ve probably seen , one question however, how do you know there are no homeless in knaresborough, and surely as beautiful as town as it is , there must be a bit of litter somewhere

Stuff the lack of people, homeless or not: Lack of litter be damned! Where's the weather?
I often wonder, when does a model railway becomes more a model village that happens to have a railway. Awesome modelling all round though.

WOW, love your intelligent answer to that Sir and agree and the details? Amazing 🇬🇧🇨🇩
The people of the village gradually became suspicious of their circumstance when a young bloke from one of the local families attempted to go swimming in the river, only to find, to his utter confusion, that all the water was solid resin. To the townspeople's horror, they finally realized the explanation for why the train never really went anywhere and always carried them back to the same place.

The architectural detail is stunning. Bravo.
This is stunning. The attention to detail and the architecture is simply mesmerising. Wonderful!
If only the real world was just as peaceful, gentle and civilised. Amazing layout of course, a lot of love went into this - but some seriously impressive rolling stock as well!
I think I know which house I want to move into. Oh, wait........ The detail is so realistic!
This is the most beautiful model railway I have ever seen. The detail is incredible! It reminds me of the England I left 44 years ago.
Those buildings are superb. Who ever built those is a craftsman. Lovely modelling throughout. 👏👏👏
Pete Goss should be justifiably proud of this work. The detail is fantastic and the skill needed to achieve that detail, greater still.
The streets look nice and clean, its the only give away.

Trains running on time is another
As a resident of Knaresborough I can say that this is awesome and incredibly accurate.
99% research and planning 1% modelling and it shows , stunning
Man! This is BRILLIANT!!!!
I live in Knaresborough. This model is perfect. Stunning
My mind is BLOWN! seriously wonderful! the little light flashing on the last cart..the art shop with all the pictures inside..The sounds of the metal tracks and air brakes! phenominal! I could mess about with this for hours on end. very very well done!
Someone put a lot of love into this and it shows
Absolutely brilliant , such detail and fine workmanship.
This is a labour of love. I think I would like to live in this little world: the one we're stuck with right now is not quite so pleasant.
Expertise shown here is phenomenal and yes, Knaresborough is a really beautiful place ❤
Oh I just love these sets. The care and attention to detail just amazes me. Little ideal worlds. Perfection. A break from life’s too often sad realities.🙏👍
I live in the Knaresborough area and can confirm: this is a very realistic layout! Most impressive!
Lived there for 20 years and used that train to go to work in Harrogate for the first year. The detail is spot on........ With a bit of Poetic licence here and there. :-)
I might be a little biased as Knaresborough is my home town, but i think this is one of the finest layouts i've seen
Brilliant, and I’m not even a train buff. I do appreciate the work and dedication that has gone into this. Well done 👍

Th most unbelievable attention to detail I seen in years. Well done!!
In all the model train videos I have watched ,this is the first where several comments have asked why no litter ? The layout is superb ,just enjoy it

Maybe because there is very little, if any litter, in this popular well cared for Yorkshire market town.
This is beyond beauty; this is glorious, this is epic.
Lucky little people living in such nice area!
We all could learn so much from this modeller. Know Knaresborough well and have watched this several times. Absolutely Top class
I have walked around those street in real life, and this model really does them justice. Excellent crafting.
Being someone that lives about 5 minutes away and been to knaresborough countless times this is a very accurate and impressive model
The music makes it feel like I'm watching something from the 90s on PBS
Simply magnificent ❤❤❤
Trains going over the river nidd just before knaresbro station. My childhood memories.in the summer months there are boat rides below the railway bridge and people flock to visit mother shiptons caves on the harrogate side of the river. I originate not far from here . The town is beautiful and well worth a visit. This model version is so nice to watch and its clear to see that a lot of thought has gone into making this. Thankyou for sharing.regards from The Netherlands
I've been subscribed long enough to know you never clickbait us! :D The modelling of the buildings is astonishing, and the end result is quite beautiful. Thank you for your work on the sound too!

This is absolutely astounding! Incredible level of detail, even the bricked up windows at 4:27, reminiscent of the time of the Windows Tax!
Some people are so talented. It blows you away.
My god , the attention to detail is absolutely phenomenal. What an amazing job and can't imagine the hours put into this.
Fab. My father worked on the station for a while. I have the LNER network map that used to hang on the wall of the booking office.😊
The attention to detail is simply incredible, well done Mr. Goss !
I always thought this stretch of line would make the perfect model railway. I'm so pleased to have stumbled across this wonderful model✌️😊💜👍
Why is there never a shot of the complete layout? As much as i like the details and realistic angles, as much i want to see the complete layout.

This is good therapy. Total escapism.
I don't get it, why thumbs down??? I spent time in and around Knaresborough 40+ years back and it is perfectly recognizable to me.
Beautiful architecture!
How could this ever be improved upon? Masterful work!

Enlarge it by knocking through a side wall into the next room, then create the countryside that surrounds Knaresborough.
Absolutely incredible 👏🇬🇧
It's the crispness of the model making - so many small scale layouts have poor junctions and joints if you look carefully but this is skilfully done. Stunning.
NICE MUSIC SOOTHING, NICE TRAIN SET
Like the way all the scenery is interconnected seamlessly...
Fantastic! Love how they worked the battle re-enactment complete with spectators in!
Can confirm it's not realistic - the trains actually arrive...😉 On a series note, absolutely fantastic!

Live just a couple of miles from Knaresborough, very accurate!
I'm really impressed! Overwhelmed! This is not something about ONLY trains. It's A LOT of clever hard work. So beautifully made. There's a lot of heart in it. I enjoyed the visit fully. Thanks
Wait.....what.....that wasn't real? Amazing attention to detail in every way. One of the best model railroads I have ever seen. Outstanding job Pilentum TV.
What a display of Beauty, craftsmanship, authenticity, charm, planning, and a ton of patience. This is really impressive in all respects listed. BRAVO to all
Thanks for eight minutes and fifty seven seconds of serenity!
Incredible detail. A lot of work went into that, clearly.
This is on a whole different level. Superb
I used to live not far from here and was blown away when I first saw this model at an exhibition. The detail and accuracy are the best I have ever seen!
A feast for our eyes, wonderful details and a great video!

This is for sure one of the most beautifull layouts, i have ever seen. Greetings from Germany. Stunning!
As an old railway modeller, this model is amazing. It's a joy to see. Thank you.
The detail is truly stunning "what a layout, I think I need to start building, thanks for sharing such a wonderful video.
Very impressive - I had no idea this existed - and I live just a couple of miles from Knaresborough!
A lot of the people commenting on the cleanliness of the buildings. This layout was built by someone who has a business related to model buildings. Laser cutting or something like that and this is a show piece demonstrator.
One of the best i'v seen love that magnificent Viaduct it looks to be by the sea or somewhere like Warwick and looks like the buildings are hand made.

Its a lovely town, and this model is absolutely stunning with all the details. Some good pubs there.
We went to Knaresborough, by train and stayed in a pub for three days about 20 years ago, but one glaring difference, our train had passengers and a driver and a guard in it.
