Oakworth - Bygone days

Having a quiet moment at work lunch break, I set about mocking up the scene for Oakworth. I need to work on the scenery and buildings to make sure it fits in with the track plan. I have removed the station and moved the track towards the front of the layout to make more space for the terrace at the back but also to allow for the potential expansion to the east where the station building(s) would sit. I am raining in the urge to plan for that too :)

 

In the meantime I have started to look at Scalescene's brick papers for the mill and terrace buildings. These have both access via road side and also rail side provided by a rather steep gradient from the bridge. Hmm Bridge St theres an idea. actually I want to make all the scene no specific so that as mentioned before have a broad timeline where stock from the LMS through to current modern TOCS can be operated.

 

So take a step back to Oakworth c1940's

Got em!

 

I always thought the station was at the front and the sidings to the rear...so you were looking across the station rather than on to it...if I understood correctly :)
