North Cotes on The East Lincolnshire Light Railway

[Ian_Holmes]

North Cotes is a layout that I’m building for the 2025 Gauge O Guild Virtual Exhibition. I’ve been quietly plodding along in the background with it for a while. Though there are plenty of constructional videos on my Micro Model Railway Dispatches YouTube channel. The other day I took some pictures of the layout and gave them a little sepia toning for fun, and well, I think the layout is looking OK.
Here are said pictures:

Top stuff Ian. I do enjoy the Micro Model Dispatches...and that Manning Wardle is very nice.

Lovely looking layout, Ian, and that Manning Wardle is a darling. Is there any chance of some more photos?

Cheers,

It really is a beauty. I’m sure I can find a few more photos. I have a crew for it coming from Modelu.

Nice Ian but what happens to the track in the background? Partly lifted or is it a monorail!
Lovely shunting plank.
Cheers Julian

There was one on the Bring'n'Buy stand at Stafford Guildex this morning, £130.
I don't think it stayed on the shelf very long..!!! (and no it wasn't me!)

I’m working on bedding in a crossing into the goods yard there.
