4mm Llanfair ....

[LarryG]

The baseboard is now covered with vinyl grass, which is similar to an undercoat. Now I have to decided what to do with it! The siding at the front edge of the baseboard has been removed as unnecessary. This narrow layout could now be reproduced in 0 gauge with tracks going out through the end wall. It'll probably never happen even though the pull of 7mm is always with me...



This side of the bridge never used to be seen, so it's been patched with Wills stone. Two trees will eventually hide the mismatched backscene by the bridge...

How shunting works at Llanfair. Daily goods arrives...



Loco runs round and picks up the brake van....


Which it deposits in the loop or make-up siding...


Goes to yard to collect empties from shed and coal yard...


..And places them in the make-up siding with the brakevan...


The newly arrived wagons are then shunted into the goods yard....


Loco then goes to the outgoing wagons to await a path back to the junction...

If passenger train is due, the goods train moves into headshunt to leave loop free. Goods loco can replenish coal and water at any time during shunting manoeuvres...
