  • Grove street yard is my small shunting layout that I take to exhibitions. Featured in Model Rail magazine, it was built on a meagre budget using much recycled material. This overview is the first of a series of videos that will show its construction, electrics, as well as how the scrapyard was put together.

    Thank you. Just what I am looking for though it'll be my first layout and given that I will be in rented accomodation, a shunting yard will be my best option. I will have fewer tracks and will build it up over the years, but its definetly a great inspiration. Thank you for this video.

    Thanks, this video really helped but you think you could do a video in the future on how to modify kits or kit bash?I want to start doing it but I'm not sure what to do

      A lot of it I make up as I go along. I'm really more of a rat rodder with kits, just bashing the bits around until I get something that looks okay but isn't necessarily accurate.

    Is that a Royal Navy uniform you're wearing?

    • @JenniferEKirk

      The jumper is, but the polo shirt underneath is from the company I work for now. The Navy jumper is nice and warm so I still wear it in winter at work.
