Like the over bridge Chris !

Hi Chris - great progress on the extension. I like the scratch built twin arched viaduct - looks the part. Cheers Euan

Gradually making my way through your videos. 👍

LOL you got a think for the green BP tankers too. They are a beauty no matter scale version they are all winners. BAH! Who am I kidding I just love green be sure to check out my carpet as seen in the very first of my videos. lol great stuff keep it up. Thanks for subscribing.

Hi Chris! That's some excellent progress you've made with the extension! Love the double bridge idea, and the canal scene below is going to look great! Great news about the Buggleskelly wagon too, as I see Tom has commented that they'll be doing the Dad's Army wagons in N! All the best, Ian.

Hi Chris, well, your extension is coming along nicely. Those bridges are looking great, and it's nice to see a loco running on the new section. We're looking forward to your next update. There's some signage on our community page about three posts ago, that you might be able to do something with. ..cheers James 🙂👍

I can also confirm we're doing the Dad's Army wagons in N. They'll be out later in the year :)

Llooks great Chris and thanks for your purchase of the wagon :)

Good to see the extension taking shape Chris. The section where the branch crosses the railway and canal is going to look great. I could already see it taking form just with the basic structure going in place. Well done on promoting the Buggleskelly wagon. Tom has been in touch to say that he is thinking of doing another wagon but he wouldn't let on which that may be. I dropped some not so subtle hints to him which he might want to do. Look forward to seeing progress in the next video. Stephen

looking great. ++ is there any chance you could do a video on the Cricut and software you are using, take us through the design and then printing

Greetings Chris 👋 You are making great progress on the extension 😇 I love the canal and railway scene under the bridges 😍 Very best wishes from the Emerald Isle ☘️

That’s a N-ockout ! I need a happy video after my last one went live. Model railway it’s not always sunshine and rainbows keep up the great content.

Coming along nicely Chris - definitely a good move on the curve return. Looking forward to seeing the track laid. Regards Steve

Hi Chris - always exciting when a layout gets extended. Lots of extra room for even longer trains. Looking forward to seeing this new bit of the layout develop over the coming weeks and months 😊 cheers Euan

Hi Chris! Great to see the progress you're making! Getting rid of the 1st radius curves is definitely an excellent idea! You've created a nice long run now for scenery! Can't wait to see what you do with it! Cheers, Ian.

Hi Chris I've just subscribed, the extension is looking great, looking forward to looking at the rest of the layout in your past videos. Colin

Hi Chris, nice to see the progress you've made with the new extension. We're looking forward to following your progress ...cheers James 🙂👍

Good to see the exertions boards in place. That is going to add quite a bit to the layout and rid you the dreaded first radius curves. Look forward to seeing trains run around here indue course. Stephen

Hi Chris! Great job with the industrial unit! I can't wait to start scratch building stuff using my Cricut machine! I can't stand Design Space though, and use Inkscape instead, which is a lot more powerful! Cheers, Ian.

Hi Chris, you've done a great job of that build. It's a good job you've put a sign on it before y grandson spotted it and asked if it was a Dylington Custard distribution centre 😁 we're looking forward to seeing it settled in to your layout...cheers James 🙂👍

That was a good outcome Chris. I found the Metcalf buildings were very useful in teaching me the basic of card building design and how to make things structurally sound. The end result looked good on the layout. Stephen

Nice job !

Well done Chris, looks good. Scratch building is very rewarding I think.

That was a brilliant bit of scratch building Chris - looks very very good. You must be very proud of that achievement. What was the materials used for the fencing? Regards Steve

Hi Chris! I very much enjoyed the tour of the layout and hearing your plans for it! It'll be interesting to see how the plans progress, and whether or not you change them as you go! I'd try and keep the trains on view as much as possible - they cost to much to hide them behind the scenes for too long! Lol! I originally had a sweeping S bend in my layout plan for Shelfington, but found that not all of my rolling stock liked traversing S bends, especially if they were too tight, so definitely have a test if you're going to go down that route! Looking forward to your next update! All the best, Ian.

Hi Chris - definitely try and keep the back two lines visible - on my first attempt I had a tunnel most of the way which covered the lines and I missed the opportunity to have a straight run. The extension down the other side will open up a lot of opportunity to create stations, fiddle yards etc and give you more running options. Great to see the whole layout and th eway you broke it down into sections. Lots of exciting work ahead! Regards Steve

Hi Chris, That was an enjoyable and informative tour of your layout. It sounds like you've got plenty of ideas to develop it further. When we were building Dylington, we decided to cover the track at one end, as my grandson wanted a tunnel. We were going to pull a camp site on top around the edge of a reservoir, including part of a dam. But my grandson decided he wanted a farm, so it ended up there instead of the campsite. Swoping the tracks at the back around sounds good, however, you decide to do it. As for the possible industrial area on the extension, my grandson says you need a Dylington Custard distribution area 🙄, he says those yellow wagons are carrying Dylington Custard 😂. We're looking forward to following your progress...cheers James 🙂👍

Hi Chris. I enjoyed the layout tour and the discussion of your plans. I think people do enjoy hearing what you have planned and then seeing it happen. I think you are right to try to find a way to incorporate the far two lines at the back into the visible part of the layout. I'll be interested to see how you adjust the revised line to achieve that, but it could make for a scenically interesting section as the lines intertwine to eventually get to their respective tunnel portals. Stephen

Hello Chris 👋 Really enjoyed the layout tour, and the thought process involved 🤩 definitely two thumbs 👍 👍 up for the talking format 🌞 Very best wishes for the railway and the channel from the Emerald Isle ☘️

Hi Chris! I like Oxford Diecast models, and I have more than a few myself, but even though this is a mystery box, that's one heck of a lot of busses! Hopefully you'll find a use for them, or will be able to sell them on! Cheers for giving us a look inside the box! Ian

Looks like a nice selection there Chris, even if they aren't all suitable for your layout...cheers James 🙂👍

Hi Chris! It's always nice to see how the scenic areas of a layout will develop! Keep up the good work! All the best, Ian.

Looking good, Chris, the scenic area is coming along nicely... Cheers James 🙂👍

Excellent bit of work Chris. 😊

Hi Chris. Good to see more of the scenery going on. As I am currently watching the third coat of PVA dry on my canal basin I know how it feels wondering if it is going to dry clear. The weathering and detailing of the yard is all adding the realism of that part of the layout. Stephen

Lots of good progress on the layout - well done and keep up the good work. Regards Steve

Great video. I do like N gauge, but with my eye sight i will stay with OO.

The two new locos looked very much at home Chris. The wire fence came out very well. Stephen

Some clever moves with the fence posts - I tried similar with thin gauge wire but they never looked right - must invest in some silver cotton! Great running session as well! Regards Steve

Ooh! A nice couple of 47's! Been looking for a one in BR blue for a while now, but they're like hen's teeth to get hold of! Enjoyed the running session! All the best, Ian.

Nice running session, and new arrivals to Amberlea, the built up kit looks great as well, nice video... Cheers James 🙂👍

Fetish 🤭 you can't have too many Class 47's 😍 Great running session and tunes 🎵🎵 very best wishes from the Emerald Isle ☘️

Well Done on 100 Subscribers Mate! I love how the match sticks in N Gauge look huge compared to the matchsticks on my layout that I used to make a fence! Cheers, Andy

Well done on the ton and I am sure you will get many many more. The timber yard looks great - modelling matchsticks are so very good for the odd bits here and there - I used some for the signs on the station and for a coal staithe. I also look for scrap balsa wood or corrugated card as additional materials and lollipop sticks make excellent stirrers! Regards Steve

Many congratulations on reaching your first 100 subscribers!

Congratulations on hitting your first milestone. Great to put a face to the name as well😊. Cheers Euan

Well done Chris 100 subscribers, we like the addition of the timber yard a great little scene...cheers James 🙂👍

Well done on 100 subscribers Chris and good to see you on screen. I'm so pleased that you've picked up subscribers. I like the timber yard. I thought the timber storage canopy looked very good and the scene does go well in that section. Stephen

Hi just watched you video after seeing your channel on Elvenhome, you have great N gauge layout in the making! Always good to see another N gauge channel starting up! Cheers Gary

Interesting video of your layout etc, I would suggest that you use a landscape mode and watch for shots that are out of focus. The audio was good and clear.
