This layout, built and owned by one of our members, was exhibited for the
first time at our 2004 show. The layout depicts a 1960s goods yard in British
Railways Southern Region, somewhere west of Eastleigh. The layout is a
freelance design with a track plan intended to provide operational
challenge.
All buildings are freelance models of buildings found in photographs of
suitable areas. Various construction techniques have been used including
scribed DAS on plywood frame, embossed plastic card on foamboard or
plywood as well as the usual kit building.
Rolling stock is again kit or scratch built, and is representative of BR
(Southern Region) in about the 1950-1960s. However you may see the
occasional out-of-area or different period visitor.
