Thanks for the great comment TP, and really glad you enjoyed the video. This layout just keeps on getting better and better doesn't it?

Hi Caleb, I don’t like revealing specific details of layouts in in TH-cam. That’s why I never name the builder or the exact location in the blurb. I’ll contact you directly and let you know more about this wonderful layout.

Thank you again for your kind words MVR. This time, I'm happy to take the praise for the layout, given that this is my own creation.

Thank you for another great comment MVR. I haven't actually travelled through regional Vic much myself, but this layout seemed to really capture the mood and feeling of the sort of lines I've read so much about.

Ich kann Susanne nur zustimmen. Ich denke, der Erbauer dieser Anlage hat großartige Arbeit geleistet, und ich schätze mich sehr glücklich, dass ich es filmen konnte. Vielen Dank für Ihre freundlichen Kommentare.

There is indeed some excellent modelling involved in this 'layout' MVR. The incredible thing about the design is that, because of the standardisation between modules, anyone can produce one and they can be put together in any order, with a mixture of straight and curved modules. The convention for 2023 was held in Brisbane. Thank you for another great comment.

Thank you for your comment Viv. Really glad you enjoyed the layout and the video.

Thank you for your kind words Stuart. I passed your comments on to the builder of the layout who was delighted.

Absolutely MVR. Its incredible just how much detail, and how many little cameo scenes, they have packed into such a small area though isn't it?

We certainly did MVR. It was a fabulous morning, although I would like to return at some point and film the layout with Australian trains running. Thank you for the comment and glad you enjoyed the video.

Thank you for the great comment Susan. Really glad you enjoyed the video.

@@monsvillerailways5736 Thank you for another great comment MR, and I’m glad you enjoyed the video. This was actually filmed back in 2019, hence the rather poor quality of the footage! My friend has made a lot of progress on the layout since then., although there is still much to do. This is the first of several videos I have made over the past five years - I’ll be transferring the rest of them from my other channel (Kartwheelkarl Trains, Railways, Railroads & Travel) over the next few weeks. By then, I will have hopefully finished the latest update which I only filmed a few days ago.

Thank you for the great comment MR. Welligford is without doubt one of my all time favourite layouts, and I consider myself very fortunate to have not only been able to film it but to have also operated it at several exhibitions. Thank you also for your thoughts on the new channel's URL. The original URL came about when I first set it up. I used Tube Buddy's Key Word Explored to try out names and, despite my own reservations, that scored highest!! However, further to your comments, I've now made a change, and I think I'm much happier with @MODELRAILWAYS123. Moreover, this brings it into alignment with my other new channel, @TRAVELAUSTRALIA123

@@MODELRAILWAYS123 sorry to be a nuisance. Just an observation. Many modellers like myself who dedicate so much effort into building in realism are a bit touchy on the toy word. Sorry once again. No disrespect meant.

@@monsvillerailways5736 Non taken MR. I too am a modeller, so I have exactly the same feelings. One of my layouts is Straatbourg et Karlhausen which you can see at: th-cam.com/video/TT4joKIPwcc/w-d-xo.html

Thank you for your fabulous comment MR. It really is a wonderful model railway isn't it? It's fascinating to look at pictures of the real Watery Bottom and the line through Lyncombe Vale, and imagine "What if?" I consider myself very lucky to have seen this layout and to have had the opportunity to film it. I only hope my video does it justice.

Thank you for your incredibly kind words John, and I'm really pleased you enjoyed the video. Wellingford is one of my all time favourite layouts, and it was both a privilege and a delight to be have the opportunity to not only film it but to also operate it at several exhibitions.

@@Shelfandtabletoplayouts00gauge Thank you for your kind comment. Really glad you enjoyed the video.

Thank you for your kind comments SF. Unfortunately, I can't take any credit for the actual layout, I was just fortunate enough to have the opportunity to film it. But I know that the incredibly talented gentleman who did build it will be delighted with your comments. Thank you.

Thank you for the fabulous comment John. This layout was indeed wonderful, both to watch and operate. Along with the incredibly talented gentleman who constructed it, it is very sadly missed. I do so wish that I had been able to capture better footage of it though. The camera I had back then had very poor video capabilities, so my finished film does not do the layout full justice.

Thank you for your incredibly kind comment Carl. It was an incredibly well made layout, and a joy to operate. I only hope my video, although now showing it's age a little, still does it justice. I do have more footage taken around that time, and I plan to do a new video sometime soon, so watch this space.
