Beasts from the East – The Yorkshire Dales Model Railway


Beasts from the East – The Yorkshire Dales Model Railway

A good old running video this week, with three eastern region locomotives out and about on the layout.

  1. Absolutely love this channel and the layout, I inspire to have one like that, however don't have the space so either run on carpet or wood usually. Would love to see some of the rest of the line because it's amazing

  2. Great work as always! This channel and your beautiful layout was one of the things that got me wanting to get back into model railways as a hobby, so thank you for all the inspiration!

  3. In some angles of the video apart from no smoke and steam you could be looking at the real thing, ok sometimes the camera movement gave it away as well. But what detail, great looking model.

  4. Ey up! What a great day out! Big surprise to see so many eastern region locos at work today! 😁 Bit concerned though, it looks like that L1 at the beginning had an issue with the trailing bogie. Could develop into a hot box and putting her out of service! 😮 I do hope the driver has spotted it and taken care of it! 🫤
    Those old open back cabs! The crew must have been “reet nithered “ going in reverse on some of those Pennine routes!
    Lovely day lad, thanks for bringing us along. 😁👍👊😎

  5. So one thing I've noticed is that the trailing truck has a wheelset that sticks, might need a stiffer spring to put more weight on it to get it to roll better or need to lubricate it heavier with some Oil.

  6. Another great video Lewis ,as always interesting with beautiful eye level shots ,& seeing your older locos working just made it that bit more interesting .Big thankyou .😊

  7. Truly Awesome in EVERY way ……

    Incredible layout with attention to detail that is second to none !!!

    Your videography is excellent with choice of locations from which its shot making it even more special.

    This is then further enhanced with top class professional editing. With a sound track that pops the "cherry 🍒 on top" – the result is one of the very best and truly atmospheric model railway videos I've seen in a very long time.

    I have to close by applauding you for your scenery, landscaping and scale modelling of your buildings, structures, locomotives and rolling stock.

    Many years of love and affection have clearly been dedicated to creating this outstanding layout.

    A true masterpiece 👌🏻

  8. When l saw this video at the start, l thought it was real then as video started l noticed there was no smoke from the engine, also the cows weren't moving, but for all that it was an excellent video.

  9. A great video and nicely edited Lewis ! Love the choice of engines – especially the J15. A lovely little 'beast' and superb runner from Hornby as is the K1. I have several of each on my roster (sitting in boxes for the moment ). Some of Hornby's best. Thanks for sharing & happy model railroading ! Cheers, Filip

  10. Still dont know how you cut those wills sheets so well for the platforms 😂 that baffles me… I'm using the brick one and its so brittle!

    Never tire of watching these Lewis great to see. The sounds always make them even better aswell. Must take ages to pull them together. Quite fun when ive done a few shorts but to do a whole running sessions really impressive. Keep mouldy 🎉

  11. Well, I was going to mention the difficulty with your trailing truck, but many commenters already have pointed it out, so I will not mention it.

    The weathering on your locomotives gives them the "look" of reality. Our mind sees a leviathan dragging many tons along the rails, rather than a fist size contraption af plastic and metal! As always, excellent content, Lewis.

  12. Love your work.
    May I request you consider putting the names/numbers/classes of your locos in the description? Would help a lot not having to look stuff up during the vids. 🙂

  13. Hey, I'm a Yank who wants to learn more about British Railways. The last train, that picked up – what I think may have been livestock wagons – but which also included a couple of coaches on the end, and third from end – what type of train was this? Did British Railways run mixed goods/passenger local trains the way some American railroads did? I appreciate any information you can give me on this.

  14. Being a resident of "the East" (ie, living 8 miles from Lowestoft, the most easterly town in the country) I was very curious to see what locos you'd selected, and was not disappointed, especially by the ex-GER J15: you couldn't get more "Eastern" than that! J15s used to ply their trade through my town (Bungay) until the line closed in the 1960s.

    A very enjoyable video. Thanks.
