Thanks all for the kind words about Keiths layout, he's been very pleased to read them too. Keep your eye on the channel over the festive period for an extended cut and more details about the layout!
Stunning layout, and inspiring sections - planning on similar smaller scale myself so very useful to see this. Would be good to hear more about how Keith developed the plan and the way he has worked out the hinged boards - this is quite special! Thanks for sharing it.
REALISTIC TRACK COLOUR ! One point ! Railway track until the abolition of steam, classic brake blocks and toilet outfall, meant ALL track quickly went a "dirty brown colour", up until around 2005 ! Further white coloured ballast is also a modern occurrence, due to classic grey ballast sources being virtually exhausted. All this being usually referred to in modelling as "Track Colour" or "Sleeper Grime", by the two railway paint specialists "Precision Paints" & "Railmatch". This later available from that well known model shop Howes of Oxford, who produce the "Railmatch" range. Both manufacturers make the suitable track colour paint in Spray Can, or "Brush on" formats. Indeed on a busy mainline, nice new grey ballast would begin to go brown within just a few weeks of being laid.
Excellent, thanks for posting. In NO way a criticism, as I face the same dilemma on my build of a large "N" gauge railway in a 17 foot by 10 foot space, but I note a distinct absence of signalling. I'd be interested to know what the reasoning was to progress so far (and so well) without it, and what the plans are for the future.
Yes, there is wiring under baseboard for signals, but not done yet. It is not in a loft. And my name is Murdoch, not with a k, any chance of changing it? The copy of the video I gave to 4KAM included shots of how the cameras were mounted onto trucks. They seem to have deleted it, no idea why as they never discussed it with me. It was a surprise to see it on this site. Thanks for showing it. Keith Murdoch
Hi Keith. Your layout is quite extraordinary. Can you tell us some more about it? I think everyone will be curious to know how long it took you to build - man-hours and passage of time - and whether you have done it all yourself or have some 'worker bees' to help? Total track length? Number of points/switches employed? To read above that it will one day also include signalling equipment as well - how much longer will that take you? And how many signals will it require?? I look forward to finding the 'in depth look' that the pinned top comment says is coming. Thanks for sharing your world!
Amazing layout, superb scenery and great video, all a lot of hard work. Could you add a superimposed map with a moving dot showing where we are on the layout - maybe a challenge too far!
As if this is not enough! The camera work is exceptional, the layout is… no words! Dont take away the magical feeling by asking such lol crap… Thank you guys for a magical vid, and ignore the soul asking for… bravo its awesome!

Absolutely incredible! Such realism is unusual.
One of the most enjoyable model railway videos I've seen in ages. It's just great to see someone's imagination run riot. Can we have some more please😁
Excellent camera viewpoints and moving action shots of the trains in motion. Best model railway video I've seen.
Goodness that's a lot of care and work! Very, very nice!
WHAT A WORLD YOU HAVE GOT THERE, HOPE YOU ENJOYED MAKING IT AND LIVING IN IT.
Great to see something different and from an individual's imagination, using their own approach to please themselves. I loved it.
Amazing
This layout has had a lot of thought gone into it . And a lot of hard work to . Very impressive.
Utterly superb!!! The only thing to add is that you seem to have a massive loft!!! Assume the floor has been strengthend.
Stunning layout, and inspiring sections - planning on similar smaller scale myself so very useful to see this. Would be good to hear more about how Keith developed the plan and the way he has worked out the hinged boards - this is quite special! Thanks for sharing it.
I can't remember ever seeing train-to-train perspectives like this. What a wonderful way to view a great layout.
All filmed using the MC700HD camera! More details in the video description!
Absolutely brilliant thank you sir.
Lovely ride around your layout.
Very clever photography.
Magic layout.
Thoroughly enjoyed.
Thanks.
Liked and subscribed.

Great info thanks!
Great layout. Great video. Could you please give us a track plan?
Superb layout, expertly filmed, a real eye catcher !
Pleased to note that NO un- realistic track curves are used !! 😊
Also if you have the means AND the knowledge, you CAN build a first class layout ! ❤
Printed backdrops work extremely well on this layout, was expecting to see an 03 or 08 working away in the background

Lovely layout and filming. Would love to know how you did the internal cab and carriage views.
