    Earby Station is being built and operated by a good mate of mine, Ralph (aka Chair leg provider for my chimney build- see my o gauge project layout post).
    He asked me if I would use his video clips and make him a little film of his layout working to send to his mate in the UK. So what you see below is all his own work with a little bit of help from me and others with the dcc side of things and nearly all the sound Locomotive installs done by me, being a mix of ESU V4 and Zimo's.

    That is a great video Kimbo and a lovely little layout. I like the way the foreground blends into the background giving a great sense of depth[size=The more you look the more of the little details you see which help to bring the layout to life. Some good use of [size="3"]Low relief buildings as well :thumbs:
    Thank Ralph for sharing his video, maybe he should pop in and show us more !! :scratchchin:

    Cheers[/size]

    Hi Kimbo,

    What a fantastic video. Some really great rolling stock and a very atmospheric layout. The lighting is very moody.

    I agree with Matt ..... Your mate Ralph needs to get his talents on here. I'd love to see more. Both you guys keep up the good work.

    Pass on my best to Ralph as well.

    Cheers

    Toto

    Welcome aboard Ralph, from another Aussie just down the road from you..., albeit 3950km away in Sydney !
    Your layout is very nice indeed, great job. :thumbup: I might have to move to Perth to get some expert advice ! ;)

    Cheers, Gary.
