Markeg Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 The above and below picture is of Northcastle. It is not my layout and unfortunately is 7 hours drive from where I live. Thats a long way in the land of OZ. I have dropped in a few times and taken photos. It will be a while before I visit again. Here is another. It is on three levels and the fiddle yard/sidings are underneath to the left of the castle. It also has been converted to DCC running. re: Glendower, dito and trains running too fast, but well done. Then theres the threat of wife leaving the hatch locked. Burried with the trains. Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gerbil-Fritters Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Markeg, an intriguing glimpse of the low level station - is it Quayside? Any more pics of it, showing the rest of the station layout? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nimbus Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 There's at least two of us working toward a model of Hatfield (34C). You could have added another had my career not gone up the headshunt! The trackplan looks great on a large scale map. I did wonder more recently about restricting my ambitions to the east side goods yard. I'd still get practice of building a double slip! Even in the mid-60s there were terminating trains - ISTR on the way home from school watching a Derby Type 2 running round, then crossing to the up side and propelling back into the bay. The Nim.

Brass0four Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Hi, Has anyone mentioned Peterborough North or am I going blind? Here in OZ (Australia), there is Northcastle, inspired by Newcastle upon tyne in LNER days. It has the castle keep at the head of a large terminus station and within a triangle. It has a few of the North Eastern loco types, such as G5, J27, Q7, D20, C7, J72 and usual number of LNER types, A1/A3, A4, D49, V2, K3, V3, P2, Sentinel Shunter, Sentinel railcar. My own layout is inspired by the carriage sidings at Gosforth in Newcastle upon tyne in LNER days and will eventually have a branchline to Ponteland (birth place of late fathers). So not actually ECML, but a diversionary route if you look at railway maps or google maps. Again LNER, with Silver Jubilee set, Pullmans, Gresleys including Restaurant Triplet set under construction, a Coronation set to be built. Mark in OZ bendigoexhibition08 130.jpg Hi, I live in Tynemouth, modelling ECML, free-lance, sort of Stoke Summit but urban. I'd appreciate seeing more pictures? Tony. EDIT Sorry, got over excited and didn't look properly! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
