Very nice, did you manage to get any film at the other layouts at Railex?

It's not my film, David - it's by Mike Ball. Yes, it is nice, and much better I think in its intended size - I can't get it to embed here properly at that size, possibly there's a forum code restriction to the old youtube settings, so here's the link:

One of my favourite layouts, and I've always thought it would have been a cool idea to join it to the south end of Pulborough somehow!

The absence of a backscene at the station end seems more pronounced in the video than it does in real life though.

Stunning layout, does it run on traditional analogy or DCC? I can't get over how smooth the locos run.
