Graham the biggest compliment I can give is that you give lots of people a relaxing entertaining and informative interval in their hectic life. Please carry on and on!!!!

Hi James and many thanks for those kind words - thank you and I will carry on building up Lakeside for as long as I can,a lot of work to complete over the coming months so you can expect many more videos yet. Cheers. ………..Graham

Hi Graham, just a thought, l have a duck under layout too but instead of crawling under, l use a desk chair with the back taken off, wheels still intact, l just sit on it ,bend over and scoot under the layout, simples, keep going we are all looking forward to it toooooooo.

Hi Kaye and thanks for the comment. I made up my own crawler seat for doing work under the baseboard, just a bit of MDF on four castors and it works well so if I need it at any time later on when my legs or knees have given up (which apparently so many people are keen to point out that it will happen) then I can use that! Cheers. ……….Graham

Hi Gary and thanks for the comment, I think I was lucky that it all worked first time to be honest, my biggest fear was that I would be getting a short from the electrofrog points but it worked out ok. The important thing is that it all runs nice and smooth now especially where that old Hornby curved point was. 👍🏻👍🏻. Cheers. ………..Graham

Indeed Mike, amazing what a simple thing like a loco running over some newly laid track and points can do! I was sure that I was going to get some form of short after connecting that section up to main lines but luckily it all worked out ok and no derailments either. One happy boy? You bet! 😂👍🏻.

Everything looks very organized. I also admire your patience and tenacity. I can't wait to see the next few stages of your work, and I am sure it will make Lake Side look even better when it is completed. Hopefully, the weather will stay dry for the rail workers, now that spring is starting, despite the recent chilly weather.

Morning Graham, fantastic job as we expect from you you do have a reputation to live up to. I'm with you about crawling into spaces, my only problem with when I get there I've then got to get back up. (Ha ha ) but so long as I can I will. I've always enjoyed your layout over the years, and looking forward to see what you can do with the canal. Keep up the good work, take care Eddy xx
@GrahamFoulston
@GrahamFoulston Год назад
Hi Eddy and many thanks for the kind comment once again, it’s greatly appreciated as always. I don’t have any issues with crawling about or getting up at the moment so I guess I’m lucky in that respect, no doubt in the years to come then that will change but I will cross that bridge when I come to it. A lot of work to do up there with the new storage system and canal so it’s going to be a busy few months ahead! Cheers. …………Graham

Soon you never know that was a lift-out section there at all. As I do have problems with my legs and have just come out of hospital after having two DVTs in my right leg I have no alternative, I am looking for a suitable place in my layout drawing to have a lift out or hinged section, Best wishes, martin (Thailand)
@GrahamFoulston
@GrahamFoulston Год назад
Hi Martin and thank you for the comment. Sorry to hear about your two DVT’s in your leg and yes, you will indeed need a lift up section within your layout somewhere to gain easy access to it, hope it all works out for you mate. Cheers. ………..Graham

Hi Graham, excellent work, thoroughly enjoyed it with my morning cuppa. As I said in my last comment I do like the way you go about things and this was no exception. I’ve been using the sauce bottles for sometime just for my PVA glue, I bought a 5 litre bottle and just decant. It may have actually come from Rob, but as you say it looks a great way to put down the glue/water mix for ballasting. I’m hoping you’re going to show us the air brushing of the track which is what I intend to do shortly having got an airbrush for Christmas, can’t wait to have a go to be honest! Cheers for now Graham, John
@GrahamFoulston
@GrahamFoulston Год назад
Hi John and thank you for the comment and I’m pleased that you enjoyed it, as long as folk enjoy it and maybe get something from it then that’s the main thing for me. I do intend to show me airbrushing the track and ballast, I’m having a break for a day or two now as I need to catch up on other stuff that needs doing but hopefully it won’t be for long, it will also give the ballast a chance to properly set off before I start airbrushing. Cheers. ……….Graham

Well Graham this is moving on very fast we are very lucky to have so many videos from you in such a short space of time. 1 question how is the narrow boat coming along? I have seen your video about it and you worked out how to raise and lower it. Are you planning to include this in this rebuild?.
@GrahamFoulston
@GrahamFoulston Год назад
Hi Robin and absolutely it will be included. In the first video I did say that I was holding off doing that because of the thoughts I had about remodelling certain areas of the layout and I didn’t want to start that until I was sure that it wouldn’t be effected in any way. Hope that helps. Cheers. ……….Graham

Graham, Really enjoy your videos and you do a great job explaining things. I'm very interested to watch the new changes you are going to make to your layout. But a question, I notice in this video how tall you are, so I wonder why do you have your layout so low, it's got to be hard on your back. Because of your planned reworks, this would be a great time to raise your layout and the duck under would not be so bad. Maybe you sit when you're having a play, but I don't think I have ever seen you sit.
@GrahamFoulston
@GrahamFoulston Год назад
Hi Eamonn and many thanks for the comment and I’m pleased that you enjoyed the video. To be honest, I never thought of the layout being too low for me, it seems about the right height to me, it’s about bench height so that will do for me. It would be a mammoth job just to raise it a few inches as I’m sure you can appreciate and I think I have enough work to be getting with! 😂. Cheers. ……….Graham

@GrahamFoulston Год назад
Hi Mark and thank you and I’m really pleased that you enjoyed the updates and to be honest I’ve enjoyed doing them too. Not quite sure what you mean by digitising the layout but if you mean going the whole hog of computer controlled with block detection and all what that involves then no. I have purposely kept this layout as simple as I can and indeed making it even more simple with these modifications I’m about to make with the deletion of the lift up section being of prime importance. Hope that all makes sense. Cheers. ………..Graham
@Rock_God
@Rock_God Год назад
Hi Graham. When it comes to most things, including trackwork, it’s important to take the time get it right, if you don’t want problems in the future. Graham, if I am not mistaken, I think that you missed applying glue to the top, left, short section of track. I watched a few times and I did not see you apply the glue, just water. What are you going to do with that bit of track that went to the now redundant curved turnout? Are you going to keep it as a shunting neck? Great job and looking forwards to the next instalment. Best, Jason.
@GrahamFoulston
@GrahamFoulston Год назад
Hi Jason and thanks for the comment. I shall have to go up in the morning and check if I put that glue down or not. If not then not a problem, I will just put some down but I thought I had done it all. That spare bit of track is going to join up with the other piece of track which at the moment comes from platform 4, that will give me an area for a head shunt or storing a loco (shunter) for manoeuvring coaches. Cheers. …………Graham
