Hi all, Well having signed up today, I thought I'd better start a Thread and tell you a little about myself and about my current project (New Mills) that I started last Saturday, (15th June 2019).
My main love is building new Layouts, and since Christmas I have built Bala Town in O Gauge, Kingsmill (Midland Road) TMD, and Mason Street (Goods) both in OO, and can be viewed on another well known Forum. These 3 have now been sold and so I have half of TOPS, (The Old Potting Shed) for the new Layout down one side. On the Window side I have another O Gauge Project, Seven Mills Sidings, taking the full 17ft length and that is 2ft wide and set in the same period as New Mills, i.e. late 80's Blue / Railfreight.
New Mills depicts a fictional backwater Junction with mainly Freight operation and the occasional passing Passenger Services and is set in the late 80's. It also depicts a couple of Sidings left over from when there was a Station the other side of the Road Bridge and that are just about still in use.
Total length is 17ft including the two 46 inch Sector Fiddle Yards and a 9ft Scenic Section in the middle. The width is a mere 16 inches.
Here is the Track Plan.
