FUN 5” gauge model train session - baby deltic & class 20 on HUGE private double track mainline !! 

Impressive layout. Swavesey is a nice place to live. Good community vibe.👏

Excellent railway and video. My 5” railway is also fully signalled using a mixture of colour lights and semaphores. I use to tablet machines for control. Sooo much fun!! Every home should have one!!

I really enjoyed the signaling bit I would like to see some more of it, also I enjoyed watching the 08

Awesome sound from that branch line crossing!

Yes, love the Nissan Bluebird! Great set up and trains too. Amazing, subscribed.

It is so cool!!! There is so much track and it is amazing that the signal box controls the railway. There are also so many wagons and good job in the signal box. Rory

What a fantastic layout, and such a lot of thought and work that has been put into what must give hours of fun and satifaction.

Brilliant trackplan, the operational signal box is the real scene stealer and of course the baby deltic and the other locos and rolling stock, love it.

Enjoy the video thanks very much.

So wonderful for the owner to share this...

That signalbox makes dcc look boring, must be great fun to operate, especially if it gets busy.👍👌😁

Really enjoyed the video 😁😁😁😁😁

So glad you are enjoying the Deltic. Great to see on ground level. Nice track.

Excellent video pal loving the signal box and locomotives 😁😁

Just awesome

Love that signal Box!!!

That is such a fun day out running your loco’s…I’d love to run mine with a full rake of coaches! How do you get invited to run on such layouts you lucky sods!!!

Actually really enjoy this hope to see some LT stock on there one day 😉

What powers the baby 5” delitic 😍

Wow how much would it cost to build say a class 37/40/45) locomotive from scratch as I might build one over winter they're fascinating and definitely cool I loved all the locomotives the baby deltic is nice definitely worth the time it takes to build one!!! 😎👏👏👏

What a cool place, I wish the Hull & District Society of Model and Experimental Engineers

I would love to come one day and run my loco

looks like an excellent day out and a fine job of signalman if I may say so. Did you get those pennies back from James although considering where they have been you may not want them.............Cheers Kev

Fab vid, a fun day was had by all 😊 I like the Mk1’s were they built from the Maxitrak kit or were they scratch built from plans ?

God damn

Can you tell me who's sound is in the class 23 ? Thanks

Doesn't that Baby Deltic look amazing in blue!.

Where do you even start to build a thing like that!?

This is just spectacular, was that a Nissan Bluebird?

Hi can I visit is this open to public hi

The model locomotive hauling the passenger rake does *not* look like a Deltic (Class 55). It *does* however bear resemblance to the later Class 37 (EE Type 3) locomotive. So don't know why you're calling this a 'Deltic'. Deltic's are characterised by having a longer 'snout', with driver observation through two-pane, split screen windows There are also six rounded, rectangular windows along both sides, unlike the Class 37's, which have two rectangular windows per side, with a three-pane windscreen at each end. Other aesthetic distinctions are the various louvered grills and air-intakes which are distinctly unique to each class. Thus, this model is a vague representation of a standard Class 37, which do *not* use the Napier Deltic engine as it's prime mover. The 'Deltics' (nickname) were exclusive to the Class 55, the prime movers being - the Napier 'Deltic' D18-25 motors (two-stroke - triple-crank, delta configuration) Whereas the CLass 37 used the EE 12CSVT diesel motors as its prime movers. Both classes use the 'Co-Co' bogie configuration (3x DC electric tractive axels x 2 bogies x2 prime mover diesel motors via 2x DC generators) whilst this model appears to only have two (tractive?) axles per bogie. So not expecially authentic then.... All very well having authentic trackwork, but the rolling stock lets that down... Not to mention the lack of concertina coverings on the passenger car, inter-carriage gangways. Which is the same glaringly obvious omission to just about every model passenger train I've ever seen. ===================================================================================================================== References [wiki refers] *English Electric/BR Class 55 - Diesel Locomotive* Prototype - DP1 - [Deltic Power unit One]. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_55 *BR Class 37 (EE/BR) - Standard Universal Diesel Locomotive (Note the resemblence to this model)* en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_37 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And....
