borderwork Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hi, I have just joined and have decided to start a topic for my first layout "oxbury junction" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
borderwork Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 The layout is Modern Image and is based on a fictional town between Reading and Oxford, it has both passenger and freight lines. The station will be two lines with one through line and one terminating. The freight line is a branch line that connects Border Road TMD with another line. I wil try and get a track plan up a.s.a.p Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jim Read Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Hi BW, I recall a station that was both terminus and through station it was (and may still be) called Severn Beach just outside Bristol, it had an interesting history, started as a goods only line and only having passenger traffic when it became fashionable to spend a day at the seaside.

JonnyGT Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Looks good mate. Looking forward to seeing the final product. Would it be an idea to add a few more sidings to your layout? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did consider a couple more but as I have limited stock and limited track I decided against for now although I may extend in the future Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
borderwork Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 Yes yet another post in my moment of wisdom I used paint to show the plan for fiddle yard etc Key Stabling Points - Brown TMD - Purple Platforms - Grey The line represents the scenic break into the fiddle yard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
