The Derry Road Posted October 1, 2016 Posted October 1, 2016 First class job Kieran. looks so real, well done. TDR
Kirley Posted October 3, 2016 Author Posted October 3, 2016 After refurbishing the layout it took me two and a half hours just cleaning the track. The PVA glue seemed to adhere to the track and it took some shifting. It will take a while to fine tune the running of stock and iron out all those little problems that seem to develop once you do anything to the layout. Some pictures of testing the layout with different eras of rolling stock.
Sulzer201 Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 Fantastic layout, they seem to be running well after the clean Kirley. I love the UTA dmu, the pocket wagons, and the steamer with the short goods. Great atmosphere and scenery. Would you recommend a particular cleaning agent or method for the track after carrying out work with glue etc? Thanks, Tommy.
Kirley Posted October 4, 2016 Author Posted October 4, 2016 Thanks Tommy, I start with the old tried and tested track rubber, then I finish off it a liquid cleaner, Goo Gone in a CMX cleaner wagon
JasonB Posted October 4, 2016 Posted October 4, 2016 The detail of that scenery is top class just looks so realistic.Fine example of how good it can look when its done right.Love everything about this layout.
Kirley Posted October 16, 2016 Author Posted October 16, 2016 Finished two tasks this week, well almost. I had Weshty's Ground Signals for longer than I care to remember. Spent ages wiring micro LED's and I have placed 4 signals near the TMD, some are easier to spot than others, to make things harder they are not wired up yet. The second task was to put up more shelves so as I could put all the rolling stock within easy reach. Unfortunately there are still stock in boxes after filling the shelves. Options; more shelves, down size, stop buying/building.

ttc0169 Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 Lovely videos Kieran.layout looking great,keep up the great work.
Noel Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 I really enjoy looking at this wonderful layout and its superb rolling stock. Thanks for making the video.
DiveController Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Options; more shelves, down size, stop buying/building. Kieran, releasing surplus stock to the fraternity is always appreciated but ..... for God's sake, man, don't stop building!
Irishrailwayman Posted October 19, 2016 Posted October 19, 2016 Kirley, a great layout and collection of rolling stock!
Kirley Posted October 23, 2016 Author Posted October 23, 2016 CIE Steam on Kirley Junction I did not intend for this video to be so long, over 6 mins. Please give me feedback on what would be a more comfortable length. BTY this is what can happen if you forget to concentrate on what is happening on the tracks.
Noel Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 [ATTACH=CONFIG]25613[/ATTACH] That's a shocking accident!!! Even the photographer and his tripod must have been knocked over by the derailment. The emergency services hadn't even arrived by the time you took the pic. Seriously, enjoyed the video. Some lovely stock and I love your layouts back scenes. Did I notice intercity mk4 at 2m32secs?
DiveController Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 Watched it through! No problems with length. Great video, Kieran!
GSR 800 Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 Watched it through! No problems with length. Great video, Kieran! +1 A great vid Kieran,Woolwich heaven!
Glenderg Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Goddamn Kieran, do you know how many layouts you put to shame? Continually impressed by this layout.
Sulzer201 Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Brilliant Kieran,fantastic steamers and spectacular layout.
Weshty Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 The drone equivalent shot at 4:00 is excellent. Great backgrounds and foliage Kieran, it really give sit that realistic feel. Love the lineside shot 3:02 as well. Super stuff.
Kirley Posted October 24, 2016 Author Posted October 24, 2016 Did I notice intercity mk4 at 2m32secs? Thanks Guys for your comments, I think the 6mins + was a bit long and should have done some more editing. Noel, that's the trouble with video, you can't edit out the bits that you did not mean to show. There are a lot more 'bits' that were not meant to appear.

The Derry Road Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Kieran, a very enjoyable video, no problem with the lenght, I could watch this layout all day, great selection of rolling stock and lush scenery, keep up the great work. TDR
