Semi-scale BR: a pageant of modern traction!

Another noisy Toy Trains in the Back Garden video to accompany your relaxed, early evening pint of Old Dirigible. Small screen, 1080p HD, best headphones, reasonable volume, etc, etc...

Cheers!

Wonderful... I never thought diesels could be so attractive.
The best things in life are free.... so why am I doing this?

I really enjoyed that, thank you!

All of it was great, but loved the mixed goods. Don't know if you do requests (?!), but maybe we could have the 33 on that too sometime?

Very enjoyable. I don't remember seeing the Plymobil DMU before. But then I do sometimes have memory lapses..... I think 🤔

It’s usually their appearance (and/or livery) that I’ve found attractive enough to want to reproduce in the first place. So thank you all.

(not that I’ve necessarily followed any of them accurately, of course)
