    Collyweston-IRWIL-Light Railway

    Good morning, thank for letting me join. Great so far. I do model RTR mainly 7mm Standard and 0.16.5 Narrow Gauge. I'll post a couple of pics, and then maybe start a new post with layout features. I do have a go at 3D CAD and 3D Printing, so I am interested in those subjects Thanks again

    Hallam New Town

    It’s been a while since I last posted anything, During a time of emptying out boxes settling into my new seaside divorced abode I discovered some bits and pieces in a box marked 2mm. that had been gathering dust for sometime . This is a scale I have wrestled with for twenty plus years always...

    7mm Beaufort Mill

    The background. My family moved to Swansea in 1963, missing the end of the Swansea & Mumbles Railway which closed in 1960, but the Swansea Harbour Trust lines around the docks and surrounding streets were still in use (just!). Track ran at two levels in places between the King’s and Prince of...

    4mm Silver Sidelines

    I have been playing with model trains for ever. I started with Triang and Hornby Dublo, had a family break and returned to Airfix and Mainline. My current layout dates from around 2005 and is an attempt to recreate scenes from my train spotting days in short trousers. Some of you may...

    4mm Podimore: solder one, then another…

    With the usual caveat that this may or may not happen, though we are (finally) in a position to have a house - and thus walls - of our own and I have one, and possibly two, walls of the end of garden office (10' 6" x 10' 6"). Going all the way round is out and I want to do something that will...

    Has anybody ever seen a method for motorising the operation of a fiddle yard sector plate or traverser? I'm interested for both my layouts Blackbridge Town and Blackbridge Town Riverside.

    7mm Blackbridge Town Riverside

    I have created this thread to separate the thread on Blackbridge Town from the Blackbridge Town Riverside layout as development will be proceeding at a separate pace. Here is the layout: The layout is 3000mm long by 400mm wide and consists of four baseboards, two each 1200mm long and two...

    7mm Invermire

    Posted below are a few photos of our 7mm layout, Invermire (loosley based on Wick/Thurso in the North of Scotland) which is currently being constructed by members of Hessle Model Railway group. The photos were taken at a test session yesterday when we hired the large room at the Hessle Town Hall...

    7mm East Dock Shed

    As I mentioned in my thread on my 54E layout, since my accident I have been unable to do much in the way of serious modelling and that lead to some 'chaffing at the bit'. I had already bought a couple of Heljan diesels to run on friends layouts when a chance conversation at an exhibition about...

    7mm Blackbridge Town

    Hello all. New to this forum. Thought you might be interested in hearing about the 7mm Finescale layout I have under construction called Blackbridge Town. As I basically like railway operation this is not intended to be a ‘scenic layout’, rather it’s been designed for maximum operational...

    Bucks Hill, some new page content.

    A few new pictures and captions have been added this week to expand Kevin's Bucks Hill page. It's just a quick tour for the fun of it, so pop along if you like the layout. There are still plenty of aspects that could be highlighted with separated pages like signalling, and particularly the...

    7mm 54E

    Well, prevarication over - wood has been cut and the first track is laid and wired up on the first 2 of 4 boards. The 'layout' is a shed scene in the late 50s/early 60s and is basically somewhere to get all my locos out. If anyone is looking for 54E let me tell you now you will not find it on...

    Brettell Road, 1960s black country (ish)

    Hi all Those who follow my new street thread will know I've been toying with a little side project, called Brettell Road (after a few name changes) I must admit I'm a bit out of practise with this track building stuff and this took a bit longer than I thought. Above is an overview of the...

    7mm Ranelagh Bridge west London Stabling point 1959/1964

    Hi all, I would like to introduce my current long term plan to model Ranelagh Bridge in 7mm around 1960 give or take a few years. I havent made a start on Boards yet as Im still trying to find a suitable home for the layout. I do plan to build it so eventually it could be exhibited. The layout...

    Albion Yard & Others

    The layout has come about primarily due to a house move and is about eight years old. Prior to moving I was working in EM gauge and had about 90% completed my EM layout Barnard Park. Due to the house move it was sold and has now joined the exhibition circuit with its current owners, renamed as...

Dart to Kingsbridge with passing stations at Dartmouth and Wencombe, with a branch from Wencombe to Slapton (upgraded during WWII for...

    1/32 Devoran Quay

    Embryo G1 Garden line I'm a bit embarrassed posting this here, because it has been seen elsewhere and progress is so pitiful, but anyway here goes. This is by way of a "place marker" for my garden line which I have at last started actually building. Building in the sense that I have track...
