Just came across this little jewel on You-tube


Late shift, a small N gauge model railway layout

Is the builder a member? if not, he should be!

Cheers  Jon   :)

Very good  :thumbsup: The chemical plant is a great piece of work. Must try one myself!

Glad you liked my phosphoric acid plant.

I love this - I don't have the room to make a scenic layout (my layout is a large computer desk which has lots of semi permanent track on it) but this seems a good way for me to scratch that scenic itch! I have a Metcalfe brewery kit waiting to be built and I always though I'd have to do it as a little shelf layout - I'll reconsider that now! Could even dip into the Unitram track system for it...

Cool!  8) Is it a coincidence that you decided to join just when I linked your video?

A technical question - what radius have you used for the chemical works?

Cheers

Brilliant little micro layout shows what can be done with a very small space.  I have got some of those tankers I used to have a connection with Albright & Wilson or Albright & shiny as they were known in the trade (in my Chemical days)

Hi Jon,

And thank you all for your kind comments, I happened across the forum the other day whilst 'surfing' I didn't know it existed to be honest as I don't belong to any clubs or societies.
I saw your post mentioning an industrial micro layout and thought I'd take a look as that's my kinda thing. I was surprised and delighted to find it was mine!!
I've only uploaded my videos recently as I've had some positive feedback from visitors when I've exhibited my layouts so I thought I'd shoot some video of them.
The Forum is very interesting and being 'self taught' I recognized that it would be a great way to pick up some tips and advice.

The radius on Late Shift is around 150mm but not constant as I didn't use a former which I have on more recent layouts. I used Peco finescale track as I find that it holds its bend better than most.

Best regards

Jason ;)

Glad you've decided to join us.

There's plenty of interest, help and advice here and I'm sure you'll get questions too, especially with your obvious talent for micro layouts.
