This blog is an offshoot from my Legge Lane MPD blog, which is established and semi-operational. I grew up with memories of steam on the Western Region, so an old Airfix 14XX tank engine has reminded me that I can run both, albeit in different countries!

So far I have a plan, two Airfix 14XX tanks which may produce one that will work, a new Bachmann 57XX pannier and an auto coach brake van and coal truck. The time period will be c. 1935, the prototype location a mash up of Oswestry and West Midlands, both areas I train spotted in the 1950s.

The layout will consist of three 3' boards, one being the fiddle yard. It will be DCC with sound, etc. but there is a lot to do! Stay tuned.
