I bought my eldest son one of those HST trains in the mid to late 70's for Christmas . Decided to check it late on Christmas Eve , I love the lights as it went forward , same in reverse . If the wife hadn't stopped me I'd have been there all night . Great days
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it John. A rekindled interest no doubt. Regards Charlie
You can’t beat a good spreadsheet 😂😂👍🏻
You’re a man after my own heart Andy.
Your intro about train spotters made me smile Charlie. Why did we get such a bad press ? At times like this I'm glad I stuck with my Triang P5 controller that i bought in 1955 and its never let me down. No chips, no sound and I dont need a degree in physics to run my trains. Of course the hobby must develop and some of your sounds are really good. I especially liked the 125 coming off the viaduct. Swindon ? Well I suppose they knew a bit there !
What a heart warming comment martin.
Stay safe. Regards Charlie
Loved it Charlie. Hard work has finally paid off and we got some trains running. Alway's great to hear your stories and see your work and the paasion you have make's for great entertainment.
Glad you enjoyed it Philip. Regards Charlie
That Class 37 looks and sounds very authentic, nice. These along with the Peaks and Deltics were grail loco's and we had to go to St Pancras and Kings Cross to see them. Thanks. :-)
My trek was from Swindon via Paddington. Happy days.
Hi Charlie
Informative and down to earth . I’m 60 now retired last year(lucky me). Only have a test track DCC but
I have 167 locos and 70 coaches plus wagons buildings scenery etc waiting to be used on the 28ft x 10ft Ickworth to Stonham Ave railway when it’s built(mk2 version) I have all track plan ready. I put the decoders in using lais one cheap and cheerful. I have crew added as I do this. My period is
BR 1954-64 so BR green/ black and experimental on diesels. Love this hobby as it stops me going nuts! Altho the obsession can revert that feeling! Cheers and stay safe.
A great comment Alan. Now you to get building.
Hi Charlie,
Nice to see part of your loco fleet in detail. My layout is also based on the Western Region in the early seventies. I am a huge diesel hydraulic fan due to the fact that I was raised in Swindon. I visited the BR railway work shops in the town on a regular basis to view the hydraulics being overhauled and repainted. Although I no longer live in Swindon due to work relocation, I am proud of my Swindon roots.
regards John Cave.
What a shocking coincidence John. I wonder if we have ever met. Sadly I have few photos of my days roaming around the Swindon workshops.
Hi charlie saw your video of when you met new junction it was nice to have an insight of how you got back into model railways all starting when set your eyes on that class 25 with sound you produce some cracking footage from chadwick even the bloopers that you leave in make it so your subscribers can’t wait for the next instalment of chadwick model railway keep them coming you are an inspiration to us all Kev
Glad you enjoyed the channel Kev. Reagds Charlie
Back when Royal Mail used to use trains We used to load mail bags into the old guard room on the 125. We had a special key to open the door.
I used to load 2nd class bags onto the parcel wagons, then go around to the other platform and collect mail from the 125's when they came in.
Happy days Stuart. Regards Charlie
Glad that I’m not the only one that creates spreadsheets of loco’s, wagons and coaches!
We need to get out more Ian!
Good video. Everyone has different ideas, plans and method. To me thats all part of the hobby, finding ouy how others do things and learn ways I may have never thought of so once again thanks for sharing.
That’s the beauty of our hobby quarry Central. Regards, Charlie.
I am always of the belief that if you can use a spreadsheet to help with something in your life you should.
Every hobby I have has various catalog spreadsheets to catalog my collection and like you what needs doing on that collection.
So I’m not going mad after all. Regards Charlie
You know I enjoy your videos because I have told you so! I am also "sad" and have spread sheets of my locos. Interesting to compare the column headings. I like your idea of making them dynamic and helping to readily identify jobs to be done. I have just added a couple of columns which I find useful. First is a picture of the loco; obviously only appears as a thumbnail but I find it helpful. Second is a record of the principal CVs. For non sound locos I just record CVs 1-6. This came about because one reliable loco suddenly became a really poor runner and I found the starting CV had somehow reset itself to max. Resetting it to 6 brought it back to normal. But it made me realise how useful it would be to have this vital info recorded on the spreadsheet. Keep up the good work.
What a heartwarmimg comment Barry Harding. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Another great clip Charlie.
Interesting to hear your background story and what lead you to your interest in the hobby.
Looking forward to your next video on layout construction.
Nick
Australia
Glad you enjoyed it Nick.
I have been building a Pirate board game for near on 100 years, or so it seems, I have always wanted a train layout but as life doesn't always give you what you want, your TH-cam posts have filled the void. So my hobby is finishing the board game and watching your clips. Thanks for a great insight to your life.
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Martyn. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Hi I am from Sri Lanka. I have enjoyed watching your locos and also your commentary. I hvae many boxed hornby, lima and fleischmaan locos and rolloing stock woth a good inventory of nickel silver tracks. Time has been such a constraint, professionally and now with the COVID- 19 taking us all round the bend. Watching and listening to you tonght, has given me some inspirational strength to pick up some courage and take them all out. Sadly, owing to moving houses many times, and job related commitments, I have never been able to have a fixed layout. I dont have a single sound fitted locomotive and will hope that i could start on it , though rather late. I am going to be 71 in July. So lets see if i have the BHP to start. LOL. Take care and be safe. Faizal Hathy, Colombo Sri Lanka.
What a heartwarming comment FH.
Good luck with your project. Regards Charlie
@@ChadwickModelRailway Hi Charlie, Thank You. Yes I will have time as the Compan is easing its operations owing the effects of Covid-19.
Keep going, there one spotter of the Chadwick Model Railway from way beyond.
Take care and be safe, God Bless., Faizal.
Ok Charlie thanks for being helpful with my 125
No problem 👍
So organised Charlie, jealous of that!! must do it myself!!
No time like the present.
Charlie, you are the real thing for sure....
You’re too kind David. Regards Charlie
Nice insights and great history.
I was airframes in the RAF.
I’m so pleased that you found it interesting Simon.
Hi Charlie, great video this week. If I recall the 9F Black Prince is on the North Norfolk railway after it was sold a few years back by David Sheppard. Of course used to be on the East Somerset line. Thenloco you're thinking of that he sold to North Yorkshire was Green Knight. We've had the Evening Star down on the West Somerset line and I had heard it had been modified to run on the mainline. Having said that, last time it came down was on the back of a truck.
Thanks for the info Stuart.
You have some beautiful locos Charlie.
Thanks Philip, I have some dogs too!
It’s fantastic to see trains running! My son aged 1 loves trains already and can’t take his eyes off this video. Like Father like Son. Fantastic channel, very helpful and interesting! Always a pleasure to watch.
Thank you, it’s comments such as yours that make it worthwhile.
I am originally from Crewe & travelled by train to school from Crewe every day (steam then BRCW Class 104 DMU's from 1957). I saw the Crewe built Class 52's regularly in their undercoat paint with their running numbers chalked on the cab sides. They were usually going on test runs on the Crewe-Shrewsbury line & the same applied to the Crewe built Class 47's. I still have my Ian Allan Summer 1961 Combined Volume suitably underlined with locos spotted plus the new Class 52's/47's added manually on the rear blank page. Amazing how time passes so quickly! Thanks for another great video. Like you I also loved the Class 52's & it was great seeing them emerge from Crewe Works in their final paint colours of Sand, Maroon & Green. Happy days :-)
What a heartwarmimg comment Pat, such memories.
Stay safe, regards Charlie
Model Railways and spreadsheets, what’s not to love? Another great video thank you Charlie
Thanks Ian, it was another day in paradise!
that class 37 sound was spot on , when in school we used to 'mooch off' down to the track near Llantarnam school and put washers on the track for the coal and steel trains to squash. great fun then but we never noticed the danger side of it. atb
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed it roger. Stay safe. Regards Charlie
Your running is enviably smooth. It demonstrates real care and experience. Great camera work, showing off the scenery wonderfully!
What a heartwarmimg comment pmichael73. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Hi Charlie, great video as per usual. My layout is a anologue steam one and what I've done is fit a steam sound module from Train-Tech, one in a rake of Pullmans, one in a goods wagon. Clever things, they are motion activated and whatever loco goes on the front, you essentially get a steam train. Yes the modules have their limitations and I'd say NOT as as good as chips etc but not a bad anologue alternative. Thanks and take care Charlie, regards Terry.
Hi Terry, well you’ve obviously found a good workaround, good for you. Regards Charlie
Your class 37 brings back recent memories of my time on my railways class 37 254 which I was a driver's assistant on, love that roar it makes and was lovely with my side window open on hot summer's day .listening to that sound the class made .a brilliant video .
What a heartwarmimg comment ian kidger. Stay safe, regards Charlie
It was great to see your stock running Charlie and hearing the different sounds from the various decoders and speaker units. Your track work on the curves looked very nice as the HST125 drove through them. You could see the engines and coaches tilt slightly due to your little shims under the outer rails, that added a lovely touch of realism to them. I look forward to seeing Chadwick's fleet growing and the rest of the layout build.
What a heart warming comment John. Stay safe. Regards Charlie
Very enjoyable. Good to see some loco action.
Thanks Tony I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it
Loved the Video.
Can relate to the SABLE reference. We get sucked in by going to large with our modelling and wanting the best for our layouts and sites. Need to be more circumspect with our desires. I have 30 plus locos because I love the mechanics of them with decoders but live in a unit that doesn't have enough space for a layout. So I collect and store and run them on a programming track.
Keep up the good work.
I just hope that one day you will the opertunity to build that Layout Russell.
Nice one Charlie 👍
Nice selection of Trains running, looking forward to seeing the Freightliners in Action,
Now there's a lot of work required to get those ready!
@@ChadwickModelRailway i can imagine, have you thought of a way to fit them Hunt Couplings to them yet,
No, it’s not impossible just another little challenge.
I love the story behind your locomotives. Thank you Charlie.
That’s very kind of you to say so.
Regards Charlie
This was a fantastic video! Thaks for giving us a bit of back ground on your journey and career.
You’re welcome Vince.
Hi Charlie! Just love the sound of that 37 rolling along your layout!
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Michael. Stay safe, regards Charlie
I really enjoy a background story. Thank you for sharing.
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it.
I must admit (though probably not to you Charlie) that until the 125s came along I hadn't really noticed what sort of engine pulled the trains I had traveled on until then. Perhaps it was because I grew up in London and we rather took the Tube for granted? Anyhow they looked so good and so modern and got us down to Bath Spa, and later Chipp'nham, so easily and so comfortably that I really noticed them. I was also impressed by the 225s that took us up to York, easily the most comfortable trains I have traveled on - and they had edible meals in the buffet. God alone knows what old rubbish was pulling me into Victoria and London Bridge from Lewisham, later, when I was commuting, but they usually worked, pulling the old 'slam-door' compartment carriages! Now I just do the occasional trip into London on the Chiltern line, and I must admit I have started noticing the engines in recent months, or had until…
Yes, well, thanks for the tour of your collection, and so good to see trains going round your tracks. Nice one Charlie.
So pleased that you enjoyed the video. I remember eating overpriced cheese sandwiches with curly edges. They were dreadful.
Well I had chicken curry with saffron rice - tasty!
Excellent presentation - always good fun showing off a loco collection.
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Murray. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Great watching these various, different locomotives! Show us some more of your inventory! Thanks, Charlie!
Thanks Pat, I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it.
Brilliant video thanks for showing us what your stock is and the sound locos you have. 🤪
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it David.
Hi Charlie, thanks for sharing yet another great video. Also, it was absolutely awesome to finally see engines running at Chadwick
Thanks BJ, I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it
I appreciate a good spreadsheet Charlie, as I use one for my loco’s. Helps me keep of what’s has been completed and yet to complete for each one, and yes I would say I have too many, oh well! cheers Paul.
In one comment Paul, someone wrote, he who dies with the most toys wins!
Thanks Charlie that made time fly 🌈😷🇬🇧
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Lee. Stay safe, regards Charlie
As we are in stage 4 lockdown here in Melbourne and basically can't go out of the house, I've been catching up on old videos.
I can't believe I have more Locos than you! Most of them are decades old and not really suited to my main area of interest and I'm actually selling
them off slowly to help fund newer more suitable ones.
Luckily I haven't really been bitten by the sound bug, I only have 1 ESU diesel and 3 TTS steam locos but with iPhone speakers instead of the standard ones.
Nice to see and hear some of your fleet trundling around - Cheers
Stay safe during your lockdown Gerry. I've only just noticed what a huge population Melbourne has! Happy modelling mate.
Thanks for this video Charlie really enjoyed your presentation. Thanks. G
Thanks Graham I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it
Those spreadsheets are an awesome idea. I've a similar one for brainstorming ideas in each part of the layout to help me keep track of plans before I forget them. Lovely video. I love the 125s. Remind me of my trips to "town" (London) with my old man (along with Network South East livery).
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video robotmonkey. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Class 108 you dips tick! Love it, entertaining as always, cheers Charlie stay safe 😎
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Chris. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Love a spreadsheet! Another great video, Charlie. Thanks. Another Class 43 fan here. Layout is looking good.
Thanks Tom, I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it and the spreadsheet too. Regards Charlie.
Early to a Chadwick video, this makes me happy
Great content as usual, Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it Gabe.
Nice one Charlie. I personally love steam engines but you can’t beat old diesels too. 👍👍
Thanks SJ, I’m so pleased that you found my diesels interesting.
great story Charlie
Thanks Colin.
Hi Charlie, it must be great to finally have two full loops to run some trains continually. Great videos, you are truly an inspiration.
Thanks for your efforts.
Regards Jonathan
What a heartwarmimg comment Jonathan. Stay safe, regards Charlie
It’s lovely to hear your story Charlie. Best Wishes, Nigel.
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Nigel. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Hi Charlie - thanks for sharing all your locos and the history behind why you have them etc. Very enjoyable video to watch whilst on my lunch break from work. Great idea around the spreadsheet info to keep track of each loco - something I should do myself for the locos on Blackwood. Cheers Euan
Glad that you enjoyed it Euan.
Brilliant stuff as always ! Really makes my Friday 😁
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Pjanic. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Charlie - I completely agree with you about Digital Sound having transformed the Hobby. I'm lucky to have two layouts, one a tail chaser and the other a small terminus station. I love watching the trains run by (with a glass of wine as I get older!) but the terminus station also comes into its own with sound locos idling in the sidings. I have a Dapol Western which I think is a great model, though my favourite locos, after the Deltics of my early years, are the Class 50s of my holidays in Cornwall and especially Penzance. Great video - I share so many similar experiences with you. All the best. I'm glad you have trains running at last!
What a great comment ash. I to remember the diesels in Penzance, such good times.
Thanks Charlie. I am hoping to move shortly and get started with my model railway. So keep these great vid’s coming.
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the videos Clive. Stay safe, regards Charlie
what a great video..and some superb angles and views of your layout..great stuff!
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video skyfall 23. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Great video as always! The green Pullman cars I think were the Bulmers Cider train
The Pullman cars were named after the wives of the restoration team.
Great to see some running Charlie, all the best...Chris
Thanks Chris. Regards Charlie
Enjoyed the video as always Charlie - you've clearly built up a good collection over the years.
Thanks DL, I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it.
Brilliant as always! Thanks Charlie! :)
Thanks Peter.
Do not feel bad Charlie, I have a check list of all my locomotive's in the works.
I have ones made up for the vehicle / motobikes I own as they do come in handy to remember what needs to be done.
Was nice too listen too your back history in your life along with seeing your collection of British locomotive's up and running!
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video The Hobbyist Den. Stay safe, regards Charlie
We finally see some of your fleet up close!
This may not be everyone's idea of interesting and informative but I think it was spot on (as usual). It was also good to hear about you Charlie, your background and what got you started in the hobby which is normally overlooked in many cases. Therefore, we get to hear about the man behind the layout, as well as seeing his handywork.
I love spreadsheets too and whilst I cannot claim to know everything about them, what they can do is superb when it comes to the sort of detail you need regarding your locos.
Already looking forward to next week's instalment. Stay safe & take care.
Thanks Simon. Another subscriber also mentioned that the spreadsheets could be useful for insurance purposes, proving what you actually own. Regards Charlie.
Nice update Charlie, thanks for sharing. The detail of the worker on the front of the class 08 is a nice touch. Your layout updates along with a number of other you rube modellers have been very inspirational in getting me back into the hobby after a significant break and I’m most grateful. I’m making a start this month (when my order arrives) if your interested in having a look after a bit of garden running during lockdown! All the best, Paul
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed the video Paul and good luck with your layout.
I also just got trains running properly on my layout too! It's such a relief to see that first one go round with no issues- especially when you're filming it lol!
Well it appears that we have both got there in the end. But it is such a relief.
14:25 I could see the sweat jumping from the driver as he approached those go-nowhere points!
Now that would be taking modelling too far.
Give me time Thomas!
Enjoyed that Charlie no complicated electronics and other stuff 😂😂😂😂❤️
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Robert. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Really enjoyed this vid, cheers, Steven
Thanks Steven.
Most interesting video Charlie, I enjoyed the story of yor start in Model Railways.
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video John B. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Nice review of your loco fleet Charlie! Thanks for sharing. Cheers Onno.
Glad you enjoyed it Onno.
Another interesting video, thank you Charlie. I also have a couple of locos that insist on only running one way round the layout.
Life just isn’t fair Chris.
Hi Charlie nice collection of locos , I love the passion that comes out on your videos . Keep it coming mate 🍻🍻👍🏻
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Todd. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Love your locos charlie you have some really awesome ones
Thanks Adam.
Morning Charlie , What a wonderful layout , so realistic especially when you have the camera trackside , i looks just like the real thing..!..!
Thanks Peter, you’re too kind.
Hi Charlie, Having seen your 100th episode, I immediately subscribed. Apologies for not doing this sooner, I hadn’t realised the importance of this. I love your videos, especially that you don’t take yourself or the hobby too seriously. Like so many people, I’m newly back into model railways after a forty plus years absence, your videos are an inspiration. Thanks for what you’re doing, keep up the great work.
That’s very nice of you to say so Lee. Good luck with your project, regards Charlie
Just the one word from me Charlie " Wonderful ".
You’re too kind Rodd.
Great video charlie -the layout is developing nicely
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video mike.
Stay safe, regards Charlie
What a Fantastic collection you have (even though that was a small selection) layout look great Charlie, great view from the viaduct ☺
Thanks Justin, I’m so pleased that you found it interesting
awesome video i really enjoyed it! those 2 0-4-0s are clearly the best locos ive ever seen!! awesome stories, keep it up ill loo forward to more videos!
Thanks Loco Force.
I agree with the over buying of stuff, I use to have twenty locomotives and reduced them down to ten. I use to buy trains just because they were a bargain but decided to sell and keep the ones that mean something to me including the two recent anniversary gift locos. I have two Hornby locos that are 50 years old which still run and look good. If the others last that long or more it's about 500 years worth of play. Lol. I do appreciate a good model loco collection though. Andrew
A great comment Andrew, this is a sin that we are all guilty of! Regards Charlie
Hi Charlie, plenty of variety has made this a very interesting video. Cheers Greg
Thanks Greg, I’m very pleased that you found it interesting.
Another great update and a cracking way start to the weekend. loved seeing your fleet, especially the 125, phenomenal sound quality and like the differences in speakers. Like how you manage your stock and the to do list on each, may have to nick that idea for my fleet.
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Alaric. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Hi Charlie always look forward to your videos. Think the spreadsheet is a great idea. Like you my model railway journey started with the Bachmann class 25.
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Ambleton Layout. Stay safe, regards Charlie
Didn't know that guards went on strike due to the InterCity125's noise. Neat fact
Everyone’s a winner mate. I do love these obscure details, regards Charlie
Thanks for the video Charlie. I had Hornby 0 gauge clockwork but my first 00 was the Tri-Ang 0-4-0 running under the name of Nellie. When Kitmaster engines and coaches came out I built a number and then I was hooked. I come from Malmesbury, only a few miles away and although I worked in Swindon in the 1970s. My favourite diesels are probable the Class 20s, Class 33s and Hymechs although I was wowed by the Western class when they first came out. I never liked the Warship class, and when on a trip round Swindon works, we were hurried through the shop containing at least 5 Warships all black with smoke where they had caught fire.
Great back story Don. Many thanks.
Hi Charlie,
To quote the great Michael Caine "did you know " the first class coaches on the HSTs were always at the London bound end of the train. "Not a lot of people know that ".
Great vlog as usual.
Andy Culham.
I certainly did Andrew.
Nice to see the trains running Charlie and get the background as to why you are into it . Way to organised for me . I deal with spreadsheets all day so I suppose loathe to use them in my hobby . But it is good to be a bit disciplined !
Glad you enjoyed it Russell.
Hi Charlie , I love watching your films , I've always liked model railways and just recently I got the bug again but when I mentioned it to the Wife she said I could have a pair of cats , Love the cats, though they put fur all over the house and its get on my records ( another interest ) ,
I love the imagery in this video.
Keep up the Great work
Ade
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it Ade.
Really enjoyed seeing all your loco’s,yep my favourite is the class 52 as well. I’ve got a Western Champion in Green also Heljan,followed closely by the Midland Blue Pullman. Cheers
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it David. I’m actually after the Bachman reverse livery Pullman.
Nice video 👍👍🙋🏻♂️
Greetings from Germany Gert
Thank you! Cheers Gert.
Great show. When you were sat face on i was expecting to see sooty pop up. LOL. Very interesting thank you.
I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it Terry.
Another great video Charlie. I only found your site about 3 weeks ago and I use a spread sheet to make a note of the subject in the video, I haven't started my layout yet but when I do and want to, say ballast track I can do a sort and all the videos covering ballasting track will be listed. Bill
That's a great idea Bill. Regards Charlie.
Tools: You forgot your brilliant wire strippers - RS Components 382-2847 (although i suppose you can't buy them on Amazon). For snips I like the Knipex 78 03 125. Super sharp, and nice and small. They are available from Amazon.
Thanks for the tips regarding the snips I shall certainly include them.
looking good keep posting vidios up stay safe
Thanks AR, you too mate.
I am a spreasheet addict, have all my points, locos and stock in them as well as all the modelling magazines where I have listed all relevant or good articles. Sad or what. I moved to Spain in 2005 with two boxes of model rallway thiungs and following inspiration from you I have been setting out a layout during lockdown.
What a heartwarmimg comment Terry. Stay safe, regards Charlie
single red tail light on the Warship at 14:43 - nice :)
I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the video Roaming Adhocrat. Warships are lovely!
Stay safe, regards Charlie
nice vid from 'Ben's last name's model railway' XD
yes, my last name is Chadwick!
I’m so pleased that my namesake enjoyed it.
