    RAILpeople - Michael from Chandwell

    Adam sits down with Michael Scott, creator of the remarkable fictional N gauge town of Chandwell. What started as a small lockdown-era railway project has grown into one of the most distinctive modelling projects on YouTube - a gritty 1990s West Yorkshire town filled with scratch-built buildings, fictional history, bizarre local celebrities and stories that somehow feel completely real. They talk about: Building Chandwell almost entirely from card Creating believable urban scenery inspired by Bradford and West Yorkshire Scratch building techniques and workflow The huge challenge of modelling Bradford Cathedral The importance of storytelling in model railways The upcoming Make a Scene 2026 competition Along the way there’s discussion of graffiti, skew bridges, Britney Scroggins, model railways as an art form, and why sometimes the railway becomes secondary to the world around it.
