Every time I see new pics of this shed I am truly inspired! Interesting point - I never realised/remembered how close the main line came to the depot roads. Obviously not something you notice at 15 when trying to avoid the foremen!

What are you planning for a fiddle yard for this? Looks like you will need something pretty big to handle trains for scale length? Well certainly a little longer than the J39+3 wagons needed for Sheep's Pasture.

Hi David,

 

Fiddle yards for just the shed are no problem as they will just need to handle one or two locos. For 3/4 or even 11 coach trains on the main line.... the group have talked about a combined fiddle yard for the group layout Brinkley & Barrow Road which will be circular rather than end to end.

Something for the future!

This layout is going to bring back memories for so many people....the steel staircase.....the yard foreman, and of course the locos. WOW, it's looking great
