37425 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Hi After seeing Nick Gurney's excellent Dyserth Road a few years ago I decided that a TMD layout was the way forward for me. Following numerous track designs and many alterations I began to build Burnden Road. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobby (John) Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 That block of flats on the other side of the bridge looks like one hell of a model, do you have any photos of that part of your layout please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitbull1845 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I know depot layouts aren't everyone's cup of tea, but I like them and thik yours looks cracking. A nice array of locos too. I wouldn't mind seeing a few more pictures please if you get the time. Cheers Scott Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsa69 Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Lovely looking layout and like the look of the flats too. With a name like 'Burnden Road' makes me think you're either a Trotters fan or from the Bolton area Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

60026to Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Very good and that goes for the photography too. One thing though that I have noticed is the road over bridge and where the actual tracks pass under the road shouldn't those parts of the bridge have solid metal sheets and not just railings. Maybe I am wrong but other than that excellent stuff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
37425 Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 Just a quick update on Burnden Road, I have decided to alter the bridge following comments raised regarding the railings on the old bridge. Class 37425 sits on one of the two fueling points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
