July Update & Accurascale's Class 60 at Dean Park Model Railway | Episode 351 

Outstanding updates on Dean Park! Accurascale class 60 looks the business and the railway show highlights were excellent too. All the best...Steve

Just when I thought your scenery building couldn't get better, you prove me wrong. The line side landscape looks sooooo good!

Hi Dave, Great video love the blends of foliage you’ve used on the embankment. And can’t wait to see your thoughts on Accurascale’s Class 60. Top job as always. All the best, Harry

As always Dave, a well explained and nice mixed update. The area by the gasometers has really come to life with the ground cover and bushes being added. It was nice to hear you mention about the difference between the lineside in steam days and the gradual infestation towards the tracks being allowed on the real railways. If only they had kept the lineside as well maintained as it was back in the steam days , not only would there be hundreds more viewing points all over the network to take photos BUT most importantly...."Leaves On The Line" would not even exist in railway vocabulary, let alone cause traction issues for wheels. 👍

Excellent, a great mix of topics and patient and clear filming of your scenic work, thank you

hi Dave a brilliant video you have put together here i love your scenics around the gas towers and that accurascale class 60 looks like it is a good powerful locomotive. take care and happy moulding.

Hi Dave. Great update video on your layout. You made a really good job of the embankment and gasometers. It was nice to see the highlights of the Cupar Model Rail Exhibition. Best wishes. Mark.

Nice piece of work. The music goes well with it. In fact, I would mark it up as a very nice piece of jazz guitar!!

Awesome as usual Dave!! Great update! Many thanks for sharing. Cheers Onno.

Great Landscaping Dave

Nice well-thought-out job with really excellent results.

Those poly fibre leaves look very realistic.

My favourite layout on RU-vid! Fantastic work, this sets the standard for OO gauge modelling that all modellers dream off!

Never thought I would watch a video with you trimming some bush!

A great job on the Gas Tower corner with the landscape plus the static grassing Your line side landscape is excellent and the modeller should follow you. Mike HO Australia

Great to see a re cap on your technique for covering embankments as I am soon going to be doing some scenery again after a few years. The show looked to have some good layouts.

Hi Dave. Hope you are keeping well buddy. Looking forward to the Class 60 from Accurascale! 2025 is going to be another epic year for model trains I see. Keep up the great work man. Peter.

Another great video dave your giving Me ideas for my own layout which will hopefully not be in the not too distant future

no matter how hard I try I can never get the holes in the right place for fencing. The solution i have come up with is to remove the middle pegs and just use the end ones and this seems to work fine.

Excellent update Dave, glad to see some N gauge as well. Cheers

Good update here Dave, great progress on the scenic area you were working on, hope you had a good time at the show you went to, from the looks of It thee were some nice layouts there, accurascales 60 looks nice, I am after a new 60 as I currently have a hornby one but when I bought it it wasn’t in the best condition, while I do say accurascales is nice I am also looking at the upcoming cavalex one, to be honest I think I’m leaning more to the cavalex one because my 56s from them which I have recently fitted the sound decoders to have been some of the best models I have got this year and with the 56 being a great first loco from them it’s very fair to say that their upcoming 60 will be just as good.

That's a very realistic mix of colours and shapes in the foiliage on your embankment - most impressive.

Nice job with the poly fibre. I've been experimenting with cheap/own brand chopped parsley for leaves. The different brands all seem to be slightly different shades of green, so you can get a good variety. Cheers

Great video as always dave your layout is amazing and hope you don't mind that I'm trying to recreate parts of it

Another great video Dave. Did your missus have anything left in the kitchen cupboards after the making of this video lol. Keep up the good work

Nae wonder I was knackered on Saturday night, you must’ve been off the stall for about 2 hours filming the Cupar show highlights

Hi Dave a other great video mate I am not at home at the moment I am in ANTRIM HOSPITAL WITH A bad keens I am in ward A7 I have been in here from last Sunday l had a bad fall in my house when l was going to the Toilet up. The top floor goodbye from Clive in N lreland 😢😢😢

Great video as ever Dave, and awesome work on that corner of the layout! Also, the accurascale class 60, even right now, looks awesome! I'm getting the coal sub sector one, as my late dad was a miner at, among other collieries, Seafield, in Kirkcaldy! What was your favourite layout from the show? There were quite a few ones I liked best, in particular the Studio tour, and the Japanese set layout! And, don't worry, once I have a chance, I'll be investing in a microphone for myself, to use with my camcorder!

Nice locomotive, the Class 60!! However, I’m more a steam fanatic than a diesel lover!!

Not bad for a gas works!! Before I cook on my stove, it has to be replaced by a new induction hob. I don’t like using things that produce carbon dioxide!!

where do you get your poly fibre from please, have the leaves, but have always used seafoam for bushes in the past, have never seen it used before

Which show was the end of the video taken at? It certainly had some gorgeous and interesting layouts attending!!

A review of the class 60 would have been good with the running, it could have helped with the sales for Sooner rather than later would have been have been far better

Is it me or do the platform ends look like their floating above the ballast ?

hi Dave, 16:00 - that Polyfibre, is it suitable for N gauge?

When I went to school they were called gasometers
