Great videos, Jason. Really interesting. Thanks, M

Beautiful work. Great to see

Nice work, really enjoying your project!😊👍 Looking forward to seeing you run 16.5 gauge in the garden, several have, no reason as to why not to👍👍 I've seen 0-16.5 run in the garden - really nice. I model O and 0-16.5, the O does have a small U and circuit in a small garden (RC) and returns to the garage, the 0-16.5 is indoor, using DCC (better running even with cheap decoders - although a phaff to fit on certain resin kits). My dad models SM32 in the garden - it really adds another dimension, outside light etc. In fact his railway is basically the real thing in miniature as one has to contend with outdoor issues.🤔🤔🤔😊😊

The charm of the large scale model was fully felt. The paint work is really excellent.

Great build Jason, amazing paint work. Look forward to seeing the loco in the garden and your next project. Thanks for sharing your modelling with us all.

Looking good! I can just imagine the 'fun' you had bending that track round into an oval and even more 'fun' joining the two ends together!! I notice you used a small cork/cardboard notice board for the base; I've often thought they would make great baseboards for micro layouts!

Nice job on the model and the video! The turntable was an excellent idea. The 3 models next to each other was an interesting comparison. The painting process is something I need to try on my models. Thanks for sharing, looking forward to the small layout build.

The loco looks great! Will you be scratch building rolling stock too?
