  1. I have thought about this, as the down line and platform at Winchfield do have curve on them
  2. I've had an idea for many year to model my local station 'Winchfield' situated between Basingstoke and Fleet. My plan is to model the track layout as close as I can to the 1930/40's including goods yards. For many years my family have farmed near by at Potbridge owning and farming the land either side of the banks at Potbridge. I still farm it to this day. My Grandfather remembers delivering sugar beet to the loading bays with tractor and trailer in the mid - late 50's and also potatoes to the military loading bay and having to shovel them out of the trailer into wagons. He recalls many memories of watching locomotives wheel slip out of the station. This year i've decided to make the effort and start planning and building 'Winchfield' I have researched for plans & photos of the station and thought that I would share with you the 'Potential layout'. It may not be Exact but I feel its close enough. My plan is to build Winchfield and then slowly build a loop over time around the room adding several features. I ran out of track on the planning demo I was using. As mochas I wouldn't have liked to I haven't added the central platform due to space restriction. Looking down towards Basingstoke. I will also add some photos of Winchfield I have collected recently, if anyone has any photos they wish to share of the station, goods yard etc they would be greatly appreciated.
