36 - Worsley Dale OO gauge Garden Railway - Running Session
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 มิ.ย. 2020
- There's been a bit more progress on Worsley Dale OO gauge Garden Railway.
The passing loop along the ground level section has now been reinstated while the motorised points at either end have been converted into motor-less 'spring' points so that trains from either direction are automatically routed onto the correct running line as they exit the single track sections. This has meant having to ensure that each vehicle, particularly small 2-axle wagons, is of a sufficient weight to push the sprung points across and not ride up onto the point blades.
37425 has now been sound-fitted and added to the loco roster as well as being newly 'named', though it's not a nameplate you are likely to have ever seen. The chap in question features in my profile photo and after the hours we've spent together out in the garden while building two garden railways it seemed a fitting way to remember. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

Wonderful thank you alass l am terminal ill so l am so grateful for this video thankyou cheered me up.
Marvellous looking railway & thank you for capturing it to share
Best outdoor layout ever. Those viaducts really blend in with the garden scenery.
Thank you for your comments! There are certainly better outdoor layouts to be discovered but mine was built with the specific aim initially to resemble a small single line heritage type railway until I discovered the delights of a Scottish Highland line. Now I try to keep to the Scottish theme and really like the ruggedness that you can achieve outdoors by using natural materials and allowing nature to do its work with the weathering.
That's very impressive. I thought It was O Gauge. your weathering is on point. very cool.
Super railway & filming ! -Ian
I've just come across this post by accident, I bloody love this a big thanks for sharing
Probably one of the best outdoor layouts I have seen also the 37 is my favourite train
Hi Dave. Thank you for the comments. I tend to focus on small scenic sections for the videos which do tend to make it look better than it probably is. I would say the layout itself is pretty basic being in the main just a single line but in my view keeping things simple and basic is the best way. It's still requires a lot of work to keep things running smoothly.
Yes. "The Tractor" is my favourite Locomotive too.
Brilliant layout, love the sounds.
Brilliant garden layout just love those bridges. Nice class 37 on the timber train cheers Andy
Thanks for your comments. The layout wouldn't be the same without the log train - it was one of the reasons for deciding to base it around a single line with a sense of the Highlands.
Fabulous. Love the way it integrates with the garden. Thanks for sharing this.
Thanks Tom. Yes the ground level section integrates nicely and is the most scenic part of the layout. It's also my favourite section but the one most susceptible to the weather. However, now that the plywood base has been replaced with building block it's far more resilient.
Great piece of work. The viaduct construction is superb and the idea of using aireated concrete blocks is a first for me. The cutting of the arches and the natural facing of the blocks gives a most realistic finish, representing the concrete viaduct s on the West Highland Extension to Mallaig. The train make up and sound very much create s the feel and atmosphere of the line. Thank you for sharing.
I think that viadact is one of the most impressive buts if modelling I've ever seen!great job, loved the running session !
Thank you. It's pretty easy to construct a viaduct that way and very affordable.
Great video being outside makes a difference to the sound ,and those viaducts are superb !
Thanks Merv. Yes, the garden is a great location for a model railway - given some decent weather that is. Natural light takes some beating.
Lovely set up 👍
Great Job.
Epic job mate!The locos sound so realistic😎👍!
Thanks Melvyn. Yes, some of the loco's sound very pleasing on video but there are some that are a bit weak by today's standards. Upgrading the speakers makes a difference but with the older chips it's difficult to source anything more suitable which ultimately means replacing the decoder at even greater expense.
@@oogardenrailway l know mate,these things do cost money.Nothing is reasonably priced these days!
Nice layout fantastic detail
Great video great sound
That 37 with the timber wagons looks and sounds great !
Thanks Dave - that's my favourite train outdoors. I like to see coal trains running indoors in the attic but log trains around the garden and a 37 is always a great choice of motive power.
Looks great outside!!!
Hi great garden railway . also a fan of the class 37 and the class 26/7? looks great single line working with passing loop very Scottish region really enjoy the running session vids well done keep them coming (Please).
Thanks Rob. I'll do my best to keep them coming but it's all at the mercy of the British weather.
Hi your welcome have spent a few enjoyable hours today in a wet Wales looking back through your garden railway videos as a railway modeler myself its nice to see you run to scale speed for the west highlands 35-40mph which is icing on the cake very nice .
Impressive bit of civil engineering is that viaduct.
Thanks for sharing.
The garden looks better with every film Mick. 👍
Cheers Iain. Only just noticed your comment so apologies for the delayed response.
wonderful
I REALLY SIMPLY ❤❤❤💕💕the sounds that the locomotives give off SO LIFEIKE, & VERY AUTHENTIC!!! Just a, shame the video covers, the bridge area.. (MOST OF IT🤨😉😒) Maybe another upload, with more different parts or scenes of this fantastic layout.
Nice engine sounds. If you had a brand new neighbor who wasn’t told about the RR & decided to sit in their yard, it would interesting to know what their reaction would be.
Great work. after rain, does the part under the arched section fill with water?
Fantastic layout. Those who have given your video a thumbs down are either jealous or stupid. Maybe both
Thank you, I'm pleased you enjoyed viewing. Yes it's a fact of life that you'll get some 'thumbs down' when you put your work out there in front of other people.
Well you got a like from me and a new subscriber too
Looking very nice, I never really thought about how good garden layouts can be before I saw this. What's the livery on that loco at 4:05? I don't think I recognise it.
Hi Tom and thank you for your comments. The loco in question is a class 67 in the new Caledonian Sleeper livery. It's Hornby model R3388TTS, 67004 'Cairn Gorm', originally fitted with a TTS chip but since replaced with Digitrains class 67 sound on a Zimo decoder.
Thermalite block's are great for cutting up, i presume they were done on a bandsaw, Nice layout by the way.
Hi Anthony. No they were all cut using a handsaw - a very blunt one by the end!
What happens to your route if it rains?
I'm planning on a garden railway 😊 What advice cam you give on what track to use.
Hi Richard. I would recommend Peco Streamline code 100 nickel silver track for a garden layout. Some of mine has been outdoors now for almost 9 years with no problems. I'm not sure what else is on the market but you won't go far wrong using the above. Wooden or concrete sleeper appear to be equally as durable outdoors. I've used both types. Hope this helps you on your way!
@@oogardenrailway thanks
Excellent garden layout and impressive viaducts. Were they cut with a band saw ? I'm now a proud owner of a 37 to.

Hi. No the blocks were cut with a standard handsaw - a very blunt one at that by the end.
How good is this?
looks very natural, how do you protect it from the weather ?
I don't David. It's all left exposed to all weathers and to date everything's been fine. I wouldn't want to start having to cover things up so its now always built to be left out in the open and unprotected.
Improving the economy of the little people of the backyard through the provision of transportation services.
How is reliability of power supply, in view of 'typical British weather conditions'? Al.
Well this layout's been operating for about 9 years now Alan and to date I've never experienced any problems with power supply. It's withstood all the British climate can throw at it and a quick walk round with the track rubber and we're up and running again.
@@oogardenrailway There's been a recent thread on the Hornby forum, hence the curiosity. Layout looks great, and thanks for getting back to me.
@@alantoms3263 That's ok Alan. Power supply, voltage drop, and 'what happens when it rains?' are the most asked questions but none of them are cause for concern - though the rain does curtail running for a while. It's fine in the garden.
@@oogardenrailway That's great to hear. TBH I've been considering doing the same myself - as a 'future project' once the lads grow up. Could be interesting and would give the locomotives a pretty decent run, instead of being F1-style round-and-round incessantly!
And ? The neighbors like the Railway too ?
Legomanbiffo sound projects on loksound v5 sound decoders
Yes, a number of my loco's are Biffo fitted but I also have Jamie Goodman, Digitrains and Locoman class 37 sounds too which are less expensive but equally as satisfying in my opinion.
DCC is absolutely pointless outdoors and the sound is nothing like the real thing
