Nelson,

You can only see the layout from the same perspective I saw the railway as a child. At platform, line side or on board a train. I didn't have a helicopter then and don't have one now.........  If you look at the videos DMU Passenger Ride, this series takes you all over the whole area.

Trenholme Junction is a OO gauge layout and is intended to be viewed from the inside out. The layout was built in order to create a video archive depicting the operation of  a main line working railway in the 1960's and viewed from the perspective I saw it from when I was a child, nine years old. The trackage follows the principles of the area (North East England) around the heavily industrialised town of Middlesbrough. Much of the rolling stock (all of the period) is correct for the area, but modellers licence allows me to have some locomotives which probably never came to the area.

The stations are deliberately unnamed and represent the typical stations from around the area. I am not a rivet counter and do take some liberties but judging by the many comments received I think many agree with me the layout does re-create the look and feel of the time.  

The YouTube channel now has over 150 videos and new ones are added each Sunday morning at 8:30 (UK) time. Please feel free to view them and make comments if you wish.
