General links Videos of interest, some with Railway Builds

Many of you may have seen the Hambleden Valley line at shows, mostly run by live steam. This Video of their ‘secrets‘ is very interestingband and shows how operating can be done with live steam in our scale.
 
Wilesco Engine build this one, around 23mins you can see the 2-6-0 tank on display at Nurenburg Toy Show.
 
Mr Way out West has been busy again, this time with Compressed Air.
 
Just stumbled on the YT vid of Bernard Dëluar’s French line, as nice a piece of French Metre gauge as you are ever likely to see in the garden. His modest sized but perfect line has featured regularly over the years in Voi Libre including the build of the superb viaduct. Pretty well all if his midelling in the mag has been well described and eminently dooable even for the ham fisted.

 
An interesting variation on a track sweeping loco..

Would like to find out more about that. :wondering:

This popped up on YT today, interesting for anyone with small scale sit-on aspirations. loco is barely 1 metre long and 1/2 wide. Would love to know the curve radius, but I reckon 8ft or a bit less possibly. Oh beginning is lots of chat but movement seen later in the vid from 2.20 on this just over 5 minute vid.
 
Although all the layouts have their own specific character - my absolute favorite is "Bretzelburg" from 04:15

Well remember Bretzelburg in Voi Libre, so nice to see it in operation making superb use of LGB Gnomy trains.
 
Interesting shunting with the switch back trams
 
Just dropped on this overhead view of the rebuild of a Railway in Ireland.
 
Update on the GcR re-unification project, they needs ‘loads of money’.
