Johnson Street IEMD
Saturday 28th October 2017
Ok, so, today, I got to see my fledgling layout in its infancy. The overall track layout hasn't changed much since its original plan back in the spring, since then the layout has gradually come to the fruition, and now, with the discussions I have had with the project director today, that the layout track plan is now finalised and the other parts of the layout not shown. The main part of the layout is going to be electrified with the reverse head shunt to be electrified up to the bridge entrance to the second shed area.
The mainstay class of the depot will be DB's various liveried Class 90s. There will also be a presence of 92s, 86s, the occasional 66 (as one cant get away from them and an 08 shunter in DB Cargo red.
Picture One attached, shows roughly where the catenary masts will probably go on the main side of the layout.
Picture Two shows the proposed town scene area which will be built on top of the fiddle yard, which would lift off.
Picture Three shows the three tracks into the main shed plus the two nearby sidings, all five are to be electrified
Picture Four shows where the raised town scene will be - the video boxes represent the retained walls which will feature arched office and stores space for the second shed area
