[Oxendale]

It is with deep regret that I unfortunately have decided to sell Oxendale. This is due to space not being available for it. 

 

It will be sold with all the buildings and accessories (people, police box, platform benches and lamps etc) but not the controllers, vehicles and rolling stock.

 

Asking price is currently £500. 

 

You'll have to come and collect it as I won't be able to transport it anywhere.

Update: Draxbridge is currently undergoing a overhaul. As part of this, a lot of track requires pulling up. The work includes removing the 2 points, crossover, siding and headshunt on the scenic section and the headshunt, point and curve in the fiddleyard. Then I will be installing 3 new points, a new headshunt and siding.

Draxbridge is going to take part in the Bridlington model railway show on the 3rd September this year.

Last Saturday I brought a new locomotive for the layout:

 

 

It's a Dapol Class 73 73212 in Network Rail livery. It's sold under the Gaugemaster collection brand. It'll help the two 31s with the handling of the freight and help 31602 with Network Rail duties.

 

This is the beginning of the "modernization" of the fleet. I've yet to get diesel classes 20, 37, 47, 50, 57, 59, 60, 66, 67, 68, 70 and 07 in their respective liveries.

 

I'm also planning to sell on the two 31s in the future and get an updated version of 31602.

Is this an exhibition layout please and where is it based?

 

This is an exhibition layout and is based in Bridlington.

Unfortunately, McKellar Yard is no more as it has been scrapped because of unrepairable damage.

Apologies for the darkness of the photo. 

 

Draxbridge is going to be at the BARMATES show this Friday and Saturday. (I have put up a topic about that in the Clubs & Society news section)

This will be the layout's second outing.
