Wow! There's so much to admire here. It's all beautifully realised. Some very nicely composed and satisfying shots too. Strewth... [shakes head, slowly]

I was having a look back at some of your early videos Rik particularly the construction of the line and you can see why the railway looks the way it does today which is brilliant.

When I mentioned Deltang to people at the recent steam up I attended your name along with the PLR were all well know.

When are we going to see some live steam action please (do it for me at least, I like the Regner).

Hi Tom. Yes, a bit scary. I've mentioned before, that once when I was at a table top sale in a Nantwich, a model railway club from Market Drayton had a stall, so I went and had a chat. The chap asked which scale I modelled in, and when I said 16mm, he said, "You must be Rik".

I'll dust off the Regner over the summer and give her a blast. Must get around to fitting PLR couplings and matybe even RC, though she doesn't really need it

Thanks. That's very gratifying. I'm always trying to find new viewpoints, but some crop up more than once. More difficult now I've cleared some of the undergrowth at the back of the garden, until the new shrubs become established.

You have done another superb video Rik. Who is looking for any slight errors and who cares, I don’t….

I just see a fantasisimo, (is that word,) line with fantastic scenery and loco’s with fantastic rolling stock.

I would be so happy to have one fifth of your line Rik.. a really fantastic line that I am sure we all enjoy whatever other people see of any mistakes.

Note to self…must stop using Fantastic so much…
