Its in P4, viewing from the bottom and is totally ficticious aprt from the name - which is of the area in the centre of Rochdale where it would be if the LNW had built such a line!!

Sparthbottom PCD, sounds like one of our Gracie's songs... :lol:

 

Interesting you are going for P4 this time. I thought you were fed up with converting locos and stock to EM?

Looks interesting Andy.

 

The 2 loco releases look a bit short if you're planning a loco and bogie GUV or similar, but it is hard to tell from above so I'll have a look at your layout thread.

This time its all Diesels, which are an easier proposition in any scale! - plus Ive nowhere near the amount of stock to do, a 24 (already done) two 25s, a 40, 47 and an 08 to shunt the depot. Two dozen 12T vans, some VBAs and about 12 BGs / CCTs / GUVs . Plus 2 DMus and a little freight stock.

 

 

Andrew - the releases are done in the right hand fiddleyard - only half the station is being modelled and a 4 road depot - the four in the top left. The shed will come out about 9 inches, the rest of the depot is "off scene" - the four roads and road at the side of the shed will be permanent tracks in the fiddleyard - other stock being moved on cassettes.

Makes perfect sense. I didn't think I'd got it right somehow.wink.gif

Look forward to some visiting inter regional workings when it's finishedbiggrin.gif
