Model Railways-British Garratt Glory

[JimTLonW6]

Very impressive layout and model. Is the BG the old K's ' Keyser Kit which was produced in, er, about 1965!?

[hollpoll]

@JimTLonW6 Yes it is (was) bought it off Ebay many years ago (when Ebay was more interesting than it is now) have since sold it to a friend who has a much bigger layout and give the runs and large consists it deserves !

Thankyou very much for watching

very nice model.

Beautiful model, beautiful layout. No bull intended HollPoll but I admire people like yourself who have the skill and patience to produce this standard of work.

Incidentally, I have a proffesionally built OO guage model of the U1 though I am not a modeller. Theres a clip of it on my channel operating on another amazing layout. Finally theres a big Garrett bash an Manchester's Museum of Science & industry next weekend to commemorate the Hundredth anniversary of Garretts. My model will be there.

Thanks for kind comments - I'm flattered! I will have a look at your channel too. Wish I could be over there to help celebrate the hundreth anniversary of the Garratts !

cheers

Very nicely built garratt, have you thought of also attempting the LNER U1? Thanks for sharing, I hope to start doing kits soon.

Brilliant looking layout mate, how big is it?

Must have spent alot of time andmoney on that!

[hollpoll]

Its in what was the double garage 6mtx6mt. Yes a lot of money bought most of it BEFORE I retired and before the global credit crunch !!

thanks for watching

That layout looks amazing! How big is the layout in total?

Lovely photography, especially some of the passing shots.

[hollpoll]

Thanks, I am rebuilding part of my layout currently so no more clips for the present. Incidently on a friends layout this loco pulled 100 coal wagons with only a little slipping starting and on the gradient- Hornby please note !

thanks for watching
